Chapter 28 - 28) Swordsman

Light flashed and Liu Mengmeng found herself back in her room of Slate courtyard. Apart from different clothes, there is no difference from when she went to Demon Slayer world.

It's just Liu Mengmeng didn't rest but opened system and purchased three recruitment cards spending 14,000 points. She thinks it is better to bring as many people as possible before the martial soul awakening ceremony begins.

If Liu Mengmeng wants to do things in the future, she will definitely need her own trustworthy people. Instead of searching in Spirit Hall, she thinks it is better to recruit them from other worlds. It can also guarantee their talent.

Liu Mengmeng operated the first card and selected two tags, girl and assassin, after third came out, she looked at the image of the girl and name world, directly used the card and disappeared from the room.

She came back after a moment. The world where she went time was just a ordinary urban world. With a little twist and turn, she signed the contract with the girl and after giving her necessary instruction, she returned.

She picked the second card, selected two tags, girl and swordsman. It's just she can't judge anything about the third tag, Early Death. But the girl and name of the world on the card, both are very good.

She didn't use the card directly but picked the third and last card, selected the same two tags, girl and swordsman. The third tag that came out this time looks dangerous, Sadist. But the world and girl on the card, made her put her worries aside.

Liu Mengmeng used the second card and once again disappeared from the room. With a flash of light, the scenery in front of her changed.

A rhythmic sound of waves came to her ears. With wet sand warm breeze, Liu Mengmeng found herself on a beach. The visual and auditory beauty of beach calmed down her heart. If there wasn't a green haired boy making noise near her, the scene would be perfect.

"Hey boy, where is Isshin Dojo?" Liu Mengmeng asked the green haired boy.

"I am not some boy. I will become world's greatest swordsman one day." The boy was annoyed and continued, "Go this way straight, then turn left after crossing the bridge, right from clinic, left from blacksmith's house, then you will reach Isshin Dojo."

"Since you know the way, then how about you lead the way." Liu Mengmeng asked.

"Why should I, I am not a tour guide." The boy refused at first but then said, "Forget it, I am going back to Dojo, just follow me and don't get lost."

"Hey girl, are you a swordsman?" The boy inquied on the way.

"Yes, I am." Liu Mengmeng answered. She spent two years in Demon Slayer and of course learned swordsmanship.

"Why are you going to the Dojo?"

"Challenge someone."

"Who?"

"Kuina"

"Then I suggest you don't do it."

"Why?"

"Because she is my rival, you definitely can't beat her."

Liu Mengmeng followed the green haired boy, Zoro, and walked throughout the Shimotsuki village, even passing the gate of Isshin Dojo a few times but not going in. This gave her a new understanding of road idiot problem of Zoro.

"Hey, Isshin Dojo has came, where are you going?" At last, Liu Mengmeng stopped Zoro from taking her around and pointed to the door of the Dojo.

"Of course I am going to dojo, follow me." Zoro said while turning 180 degrees and entering the dojo.

Liu Mengmeng saw that several children around the age of 10-12 year old were training with a wooden sword in the training hall. At the very front stood a stern tall man with calm expression, Shimotsuki Koshiro, who was correcting their movements.

Beside him stood a girl with short black hair, Kushina, who was practicing seriously. Her movements were much better than rest of the students.

"I am here to challenge Kuina." Liu Mengmeng took a step forward and said loudly attracting everyone's attention.

The training hall became quiet. Koshiro raised his eyebrows and was observing her. The student below thought that she was overestimating herself by challenging Kuina, who was strongest in the dojo.

Kuina was the only one who was looking seriously at her. Apart from herself, Kuina has never seen any girl using sword before, not to mention Liu Mengmeng looks like she is about same age as her.

"Ok, let's compete." Kuina said and handed a wooden sword to Liu Mengmeng and stood at a distance from her. Seeing Kuina like this, Liu Mengmeng also took the position.

Looking at both the girls who were ready, Koshiro, who had assumed the position of refree, announced, "Start."

Liu Mengmeng rushed towards Kuina and striked at her, which Kuina parried easily. Liu Mengmeng constantly adjusted her strength and played on equal terms with Kuina.
