Personal note here; I have been trying to add a book cover forever but i cant figure it out
-First Person Pov Mikey Martinez-
[Universe: Demon Slayer]
[Location: Somewhere in fucking Japan]
[Time: 3:01AM]
So I chose to go to the demon slayer universe and I admit not my best idea, why you ask well that's quite simple.
I have been walking for fucking hours and I still haven't found civilization yet. Where the fuck am I?! 'System! Where the fuck did you put me?'
[In Japan in the demon slayer universe.]
'No shit!, but where!?' I keep walking at a fast pace in one direction.
[Idk.]
I freeze in place. 'what.' I audibly sigh, my system I love it and hate it at the same time but I guess I can't really complain it did what it was supposed to and brought me to the Demon Slayer Verse.
It's a good thing I don't get hungry, I suddenly hear a distant feminine scream in the distance, 'Demons?' I think with a smile on my face and start to run full speed towards the scream.
[-0.5 Stamina]
I arrive relatively quickly and... it's just bandits... were there even bandits in this era of Japan? I didn't even know.
Well that was disappointing. I was hoping to run into demons not four bandits on a power trip well maybe it's for the best. I don't think I'm ready to do that yet so I guess bandits is a nice start.
Why are they robbing one measly cart? I then look towards the source of the girly screaming. That's a dude... 'Bro... how the fuck is your wife and daughter more calm than you?.'
One of the bandits noticed me and said "おい,外国人,何を歩いているんだ,この道には税金がかかっているんだよ." (Hey, you foreigner what are you doing walking here there is a tax on this road you know.)
Oh right Japanese okay, I clear my throat "Ahem 僕は君のお母さんの家から帰ってきたばかりだから,この道を歩いているんだ.彼女に言って彼女の「おはよう」を台無しにする前に,この人たちを放っておいてくれ." there we go that will get the message across.
Oh he seems mad he pulled out his weird sword and started walking towards me threateningly. "汚い外国人め." (You filthy foreigner.) what?.
He charged at me with his weird-looking sword while I was still in slight shock. I quickly dodged his swing and hit him with a clothesline to the throat.
'Activate Non Lethal mode.'
[Non Lethal Mode activated.]
I see the other three bandits start to charge at me, so I pull my brass knuckles out of my inventory and get ready for them.
Suddenly, I feel someone put me in a headlock from behind. The hell?
"Bitch, get the hell off—" I reach behind me and grab his neck. "—ME!"
As I shout, I bend my knees, lean forward, and throw him off me, slamming him into the ground with full force.
[+10 EXP, +10 Gold]
What kind of idiot puts someone in a headlock instead of using their sword?
I rush at the bandit trying to slice me, weave past his attack, and slam into him. Before he can react, I throw a quick, full-force punch to his face.
[+10 EXP, +10 Gold]
[New skill developed]
[Street Fighting: Street fighting Involves fast, brutal strikes with little emphasis on formality Often combined with grappling or improvised weapons. Speed and strength increased by 10% while in combat. [Level 1. 10/100EXP]]
I quickly turn around to the last two- AH!.
[-20 Health]
I see the culprit for my lost health "Motherfucker!" I slammed my fist into his face, then backhanded him.
[+10 EXP, +10 Gold]
The fucker slashed me on the shoulder. Fuck, this hurts! I quickly weave the last bandits swing and brutally slam my elbow into his face.
[+10 EXP, +10 Gold]
'That's all of them.' I touch my shoulder. 'Hm? That's weird, my clothes aren't ruined. Whatever, I'll figure this out later.'
I turn to the family. The dad is crying for some reason, while his daughter comforts him. The wife walks up to me.
"私と家族を救ってくれて本当にありがとう." (Thank you so much for saving me and my family.) She said while giving me a small bow.
"問題ありません.一番近い町か,人が集まる場所を教えてもらえますか?" (No problem miss. do you mind pointing me to the nearest town or maybe anywhere where there's people) I try to be as kind as possible.
"ああ,あなたは道に迷ったのですか,もしそうなら,私たちの故郷まで一緒に乗ってください." (Oh are you lost if so you can ride with us to our home town.) How nice.
After she said that, I see the husband flinch and stop crying. He quickly walks up to his wife, drags her a little farther away from me, and starts whispering to her.
I look at the dad 'Observe'

It's not working.]
...Okay then. Oh looks like the daughter is talking to him too. I look at the bandits on the floor. 'I don't really think I need their swords.'
'So system my clothes doesn't get damaged when equipped to me?'
[Yes, items equipped do not break unless it is a consumable or a temporary item.]
'Cool.' Cool.
[Evolutionary process working...]
'Hm?'
[Healing process, taking too long developing skill Accelerated Healing]
[Accelerated Healing: A sub power developed in order to recover faster it boosts your natural healing process to a good degree. It Heals 9 Health Per Minute. [Level 1. EXP 0/100]]
'Evolutionary process is extremely useful definitely something I need to focus leveling up.' I ponder.
As I'm in thought the daughter of the family walks up to me and starts talking' "お待たせして申し訳ありませんが,どうぞご乗車ください." (Sorry for the wait please hop on.) she gestured to the cart or wagon what ever it's called.
I give her a smile "ありがとう" (Thank you) I hop on the cart while the dad watches me from the front of the cart. I sit the opposite side from the mother and daughter.
It has been ten minutes, and not a word has been said... The silence is already awkward, but between the daughter squirming in her seat and the thud of the horse's hooves against the ground, it somehow feels even worse.
"So nice cart." I say to try and break the tension and they just look at me confused. "素敵なカートをお持ちですね" (I said you have a nice cart) the mother just nodded.
The mother then said "自己紹介がまだできなくてすみません,田中珠です." (I'm sorry we have yet to introduce ourselves I'm Tanaka Tama.) The daughter, then speaks up.

'Heart of a samurai?'
Whatever it's self introduction time "私はマイキー・マルティネスです 喜び" (I'm Mikey Martinez a pleasure)
Tama just smiles "マイキーさんはどこから来ましたか?"
(Where are you from Mikey-San?)
-Time Skip-
Finally out of the cart that was a long conversation, I told them I was from America and told them that I was in Japan to find strong opponents, which basically wasn't a lie.
Tama walks up to me and points in a direction down a path, "あなたが探している山はその道の先にあります.そのまま進んでいくと,旅の幸運を祈る3つの小さな町を通り過ぎます,マイキーさん." (The mountain you're looking for is down that path just keep heading there you'll pass three small towns you can use to rest good luck on your journey Mikey-San.) YES.
Time to dip. "マルティネス.. " (Martinez) Sumiko called out to me, I turn around to face her "これを受け取ってください,マルティネス." she holds something out for me and I grab it.
'Observe'

Oh shit that's awesome!, looking up from the charm I smile at her "田中さん,本当にありがとう.ずっと大切にします. " (Thank you so much Tanaka I'll cherish it forever.)
"マルティネスさん戻ってきてください." (Please come back Martinez.) I give her a nod then turn away and walk in the direction of the mountain. 'System is- is she still looking?...'
[Im pretty certain she I sir...]
I start to fast walk 'The sooner I get out of this town the better.' Onward to Mount Fujikasane.
[Host I like your enthusiasm but you might need more strength before you take Final Selection.]
'...yea probably maybe I'll find some more bandits or something hopefully, I mean even if I don't how hard can final selection be it's full of low tier demons. Now onward.'
