章節 3: Life and Death on a blade's edge
The next day,
The man was waiting for Alan to arrive. He was a little annoyed because of Alan's tardiness. After waiting for a while, he prepared to leave. Before the man could take his leave, he saw that Alan came sprinting toward. Alan entered the alleyway and started to catch his breath.
"You are late. You have wasted 20mins of my time. Can't you understand simple words? I told you to meet me here at noon" asked the man with tranquil tone
"I am sorry, Police take to ask me what happened yesterday so I had to make up a lie. I am really sorry for being late" replied Alan as he was still trying to catch his breath.
Alan took a minute to observed the man. He was wearing a long sleeved black shirt, black pants and haori that was black with a red flame patterns.
"What did you asked from me yesterday?" asked the man.
"I want to join you and stop demons from robbing innocent lives" replied Alan.
"So you want to join the demon slayer corp? Are you sure about that?" replied the man with another question.
"Yes, I want to avenge my friends and help innocent" replied Alan.
"So you have a death wish?" asked the man but this time his tone was not calm.
"What? A death wish!!? No, I certainly do not" replied Alan with a shocked expression.
"Do you even have slightest idea of what corporation you are trying to join?" asked the man with a serious tone.
"Yes, I know but what did you say that I have a death wish?" asked Alan as he raised his eyebrow.
"Everyone who joins the demon slayer corp have a death wish. No one can guarantee that we would see the next sunrise. This job is dangerous if you are scared of losing your life to a demon, I think it would be better for us to stop this conversation now" replied the man.
"I am not scared of death. I don't have anything to live for. No family, No friends, nothing. I have nothing. I just want to be useful, be a part of something and help someone." said Alan as he was slowly tearing up.
"Hmmm, so that is your motivation. Interesting." said the man as took a step closer to Alan.
"Let me ask you a question. Do you know how to survive from a demon attack of you are a Demon slayer?" asked the man
Alan took a bit of time to think an answer but he couldn't bring an answer together.
"What is it? Is it fighting skill?" asked Alan. The man could see that his question confused Alan from his face.
"You are partially correct" replied the man.
The unsheathed his katana from a mechanical looking sheath. The katana was bright red in colour with a darker flame patterns going across the katana. The man tilted the katana and said "This is help us to survive. If you are technique is better than the demon's, you will survive if not you will die. Life and Death on a blade's edge."
"Are you still certain that you are going to join the cause?" asked the man.
"Yes, I want to. Also can I know your name?" asked Alan.
"Name's Shun. Welcome to the demon slayer corp" replied Shun.
Suddenly Shun dashed behind Alan and striked his neck using his hand. Alan was shock to see Shun suddenly disappear and attack him from the back.
"What? Why? I did yo??!!?!" Alan muttered as he collapsed onto the floor unconscious.
"If you were telling the truth to, you would be able to survive and climb into our ranks" whispered Shun as he sheathed his katana back and smiled calmly.
