"The coward actually didn't die. I heard you fainted as soon as you saw a {demon}, and you had to be carried on someone's back. You're really a burden."
At this time, a young man who didn't like the cowardly Zenitsu jumped out and mocked him.
Zenitsu didn't get angry at the other's mockery. He said calmly, "You're just as cowardly as me. You only hide in the safe area marked by Senior Ryuji. If it weren't for Senior Ryuji, you'd all be dead!"
"You little brat, do you want to fight?" The young man who had mocked Zenitsu was immediately angered by his words.
"You're itching for a beating, coward!"
"Damn it! He's so arrogant! Don't stop me! I'm going to beat him to a pulp!"
Many young men also jumped out because of Zenitsu's words.
Then, five or six young men who liked to show off surrounded Zenitsu.
Seeing this, Zenitsu immediately hid behind Tanjiro and asked for help, "Tanjiro, these guys actually want to beat us up. You can't just stand there!"
"Zenitsu is right. You have no right to talk about him." Shinji Murata stood up and spoke for Zenitsu.
Tanjiro saw that the situation was getting out of control, so he also stood up and said, "Do you only know how to bully the weak? You're so tough. Go fight the {demons}!"
Tanjiro's words immediately silenced the troublemakers.
Of course, the reason they were afraid wasn't because of Tanjiro himself but because of Ryuji. Because Tanjiro was from the same school as Ryuji, they naturally didn't dare to disrespect him.
"Wow, it's getting lively here!"
At this time, Ryuji's voice rang out.
Everyone looked over. Ryuji, who had appeared at some point, walked towards Tanjiro and the others.
The troublemakers couldn't help but retreat a few steps in fear when they saw Ryuji approaching.
"Senior Ryuji!" Tanjiro called out to Ryuji happily. After so many days, he had finally appeared.
Zenitsu, seeing Ryuji, immediately hugged his leg and said, "Senior Ryuji, you're finally back! If you hadn't come back, they would have beaten me, Tanjiro, and Shinji up!"
"I know. You can let go of me now." Ryuji said calmly to Zenitsu.
As soon as Ryuji spoke, Zenitsu quickly let go of him and stood behind him, making faces at the troublemakers.
The troublemakers, seeing Zenitsu's smug expression, were furious! But Ryuji, this great god, was right in front of them, so they really didn't dare to act up.
"It seems you guys have recovered well. You want to fight? Should I find a few {demons} for you to practice with?" Ryuji looked at the troublemakers.
Hearing this, the troublemakers immediately started to refuse awkwardly.
"Senior Ryuji, you're just joking! My injuries haven't fully healed yet. I won't trouble you."
"Yes, yes. My leg isn't very stable yet. I'll pass."
"Yeah, yeah. We haven't fully recovered yet."
—"Then get back to your places and behave yourselves!"
Suddenly, Ryuji roared, startling the troublemakers. They flinched and then reluctantly retreated to the crowd.
