Chapter 57: Breath Style
A man whose story is still a mystery to some Demon slayer fans back on the other side, Tatsuya thought
His expression was calm and mild showing no glint of emotions whatsoever. His dark brown eyes were so sharp that it pierces into the very soul of anybody he stares at, this is the man of legends, the founder of breath styles and the creator of the first breath style, the one and only creature capable of hurting and traumatising the first and strongest demon to ever exist Muzan Kibutsuji. Standing before Tatsuya's very eyes was he, the one and only Tsukuguni Yoriichi.
Eita froze still as he encountered the piercing gaze of Yoriichi which sent shivers through his spin.
What's this feeling, Tatsuya thought to himself, this was a feeling he long forsook, the feeling that no human from the Shinobi clan possessed, the feeling that many said to be the one and only weakness of mankind that was the feeling of 'Fear'
Tatsuya was so afraid he couldn't move a single muscle, not only Tatsuya but the others too. Apart from Yoriichi beside him was his brother Michikatsu, who made a name for himself in the past war from the 'Master Tactician' to 'The god sent Strategist'
He never lost a war which he commanded, he was incharge of a battalion personally assigned to him to take charge in the offensive lines of the Tsukuguni conquests for land and supply just at the age of 13.
Michikatsu and Yoriichi were very much identical, with a single glance one could tell that they were brothers. Unlike Yoriichi, Michikatsu was filled with substance, he looked like someone who desired to fight and take down anybody that stood before him. Yoriichi on the other hand looked like someone who had lost it, he looked like a walking shell.
"Well then I'll take my leave" Ubuyashiki said and was escorted by his wife. Everybody bowed to him as he departed.
After he left the veranda they all raised their head while Yoriichi started with his teaching
"Before we go into swinging our weapons, I'd like to share and make you understand what Breath styles is all about" Yoriich takes a pause to check if they're following him
"Breath style is a technique to improve our state of being, be if mentally or physically, breath style can be used in different aspects of life, not only for fighting and shedding blood…" with the mention of 'blood' Yoriichi face went sour, then he continued
"When we use Breath we aim to enhance what we already have, we aim to make ourselves stronger, that's just it. During my recent training and studying I found out just like the way we have our separate fighting style it will also affect our breath styles too, I'm not entirely sure but that was the case for Big bro Michikatsu. But since I'm not entirely sure we should try it ourselves." Yoriichi said
"But before trying it, I still don't understand what you are saying, what's this breathing style anyway? Please explain further?" Koji scratched his hair trying to connect the dots together
"Very well I'll demonstrate" Yoriichi stood up from the and scanned everybody, his eyes stopped at Tatsuya.
"Umm….Tatsuya-dono please can you aid me in the demonstration practice?" Yoriichi asked bowing his head
"Sure, sure" Tatsuya said and walked up to him
The two stood far away from each other, Tatsuya with his dark katana while Yoriichi held his bright red katana.
"Begin!!" Michikatsu who was the referee of the little duel shouted and in second with just a kick Yoriichi was in front of Tatsuya swinging his katana at him
"Ehh?" Tatsuya saw everything happening in slow motion but yet couldn't move, he just stared into Yoriichi cold eyes as he saw the katana approaching his neck. He gave up?? No no this is Tatsuya we are talking about.
Tatsuya's body acted on reflex as he bends his back and dodge the attack he was in a C position supporting his body with is hand and feet on the floor
"Are you planning on killing me" Tatsuya yeld
"Hahahaha, i don't know how to say it, but i knew that you would dodge" Yoriichi chuckles
'The fuck, is he insane' Tatsuya thought
"Haaa…even after the demonstration i don't still understand anything' Koji sighs
"That's enough for normal combat, now for the breath style…" Yoriichi returned to his former position, he gripped his katana tightly and takes in a large amount of air and exhales lightly,
*shhhhhh
A sizzling sound of air gushing out from something like a pipe was heard amongst the dead silence of the compound, then steam visible enough for normal eyes was seen gushing out from Yoriichi's mouth, and just then, just then
Taiyō no kokyū, dai roku keitai: Taiyōnetsu hoshikusa [Sun breathing, Sixth form: Solar heat hays]

A/N: Yo, it's your boy, just saying hello. Going straight to the point, i wanted to let you all know my plan for the book. Well most of you may or may not know that Breath styles don't actually exist, like the visualising of fire gushing out from the blade as he runs at the Demon to behead him, yeah those things aren't actually real they are just there to help the viewers understand what's going on, so that boils down to the talk of the day, I'm in conflict, i don't know whether to go into details by talking about the visuals as if they were real of just saying the fighting styles as they should be. I need your help Onegai
