Chapter 18 - Chapter 18 Fighting for All That Is Good

The skills the Hashira gained after receiving the Blessing would definitely rival Tsugikuni Yoriichi even before they leveled up.

Just one Tsugikuni Yoriichi made Muzan afraid from four hundred years ago until now; he was even so scared by Tanjiro wearing Tsugikuni Yoriichi's earrings that he didn't dare to make a move.

With nine Demon Slayers whose combat power was comparable to Tsugikuni Yoriichi chasing and slashing Muzan, Muzan's spirit would probably collapse in despair.

"The Familia is about to be established. I must set its direction and spirit. This is something that must be done before establishing the Gods Base."

Lord Xia Wei stopped his real-time viewing of the Demon Slayer Corps and pondered the future direction.

The first members of the Familia, after becoming Gods in the future, will become the elders of the Gods, and will also influence the future development of the Gods.

The direction set at this time will become the will of the Gods.

"What kind of Gods do I want to establish?" Lord Xia Wei closed his eyes, recalling the past decade of his life before he obtained the Gods Base.

His life was uneventful, without any dramatic experiences, he was not an orphan, his family was very happy, and he was no different from the common people.

His only hobby was watching anime, because anime contained everything he fantasized about.

Magical powers, cute beautiful girls, passionate and brave adventures, and even depressing plotlines.

These deeply attracted him, especially when a certain embarrassing, but not really a disease, 'illness' erupted during middle school.

Thinking about his behavior back then still makes him want to dig a three-bedroom, two-living room apartment with his toes.

"So what do I want? It's definitely not just satisfying my desires." Stories from various anime constantly surfaced in Lord Xia Wei's mind. In an instant, a flash of inspiration struck him, his eyes lit up, and he smiled with a hint of yearning.

"That's right, that's what I've always wanted. All my thoughts can be summarized into just one idea: naive, idealistic, but it deeply attracts me."

To fight for all that is beautiful.

"Whether it's encountering beautiful girls, saving the world, or pursuing ideals, it's all for the sake of everything beautiful." The last trace of confusion in Lord Xia Wei's heart completely vanished, leaving only determination in his eyes.

"Henceforth, the will of my Gods will be to fight for all that is beautiful."

"Only by conforming to this will of 'fighting for all that is beautiful' can one gain the power bestowed by the Gods."

"The more one's actions align with this will, the more power one can obtain from the Gods."

Detected that the successor has established the nascent form of the Gods' will.

Generating.

Henceforth, some functions of the Gods will operate according to this will.

...

The next day.

The first ray of dawn sunlight spilled across the land, the distant mountains were gilded with a golden outline, and the people in the distant town at the foot of the mountain also began to get busy.

At this time, the nine Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps and the Ubuyashiki couple also arrived at the foot of the mountain.

"Is this where Lord Unmei Genso Dai Mikogami descended to the mortal world?" Yaozai Ubuyashiki looked towards the mountain peak, clasped his hands together, and prayed from the bottom of his heart.

At the foot of the mountain where God resided, the Hashira were all quiet, fearing they might say something wrong and offend God. They all looked up at the end of the path, their hearts filled with reverence for God.

"Stepping through the Torii Gate at the halfway point of the mountain will lead you into the divine realm," Shinobu Kocho said softly, looking at the vermilion Torii Gate halfway up the mountain. Her cheeks couldn't help but flush slightly as she recalled meeting Lord Xia Wei two days ago.

Thinking back now, she was truly bold. If it were other Gods, her impudence would have long brought down divine wrath.

Lord Xia Wei is truly gentle. How fortunate she is to be Lord Xia Wei's first shrine maiden in this land.

With reverence, everyone quickly arrived before the Torii Gate, and the Hashira were all very nervous.

"Lord Xia Wei, I'm back. May I enter the divine realm?" Shinobu Kocho asked softly.

The vermilion Torii Gate emitted a soft light, and a thin film of light covered the entrance of the Torii Gate.

Everyone watched the changes in the Torii Gate, becoming nervous.

Shinobu Kocho walked into the Torii Gate and disappeared. Everyone exchanged glances, then nervously lifted their feet and walked in.

The moment they stepped in, their vision blurred, and what greeted their eyes was a world of blooming flowers, completely different from the mountain forest they had just seen.

At the end of the stone steps was a pure white, jade-like shrine. A sacred aura wafted over them, and the fragrance of a hundred flowers purified their souls.

"Is this the world of God? So, so beautiful," Mitsuri Kanroji exclaimed involuntarily.

Everyone immediately looked at Mitsuri Kanroji, who quickly covered her mouth. "Wow! I just said it without thinking! Will speaking in the divine realm anger God?"

Shinobu Kocho breathed a sigh of relief when she saw everyone had entered the divine realm. It was said that only with God's permission could one enter the divine realm, so their entry proved they had received Lord Xia Wei's approval.

"Lord Xia Wei is waiting for us in the shrine. Let's go."

Everyone followed behind Shinobu Kocho and quickly arrived before the pure white, jade-like shrine. The next moment, they held their breath.

A God, with a slowly rotating colorful divine wheel behind him, was drinking tea at a stone table in the courtyard in front of the shrine. A sacred and gentle aura enveloped them, and his golden eyes looked towards them.

The moment their gazes met, many understandings appeared in everyone's minds.

God...

Mortals do not recognize God, but upon seeing God, they will know what kind of existence God is.

At the same time, they also recognized what kind of will this God possessed.

Gentleness, compassion, love, salvation, tolerance...

Under these wills, a passage of words that they could comprehend formed.

To fight for all that is beautiful.

What they felt was the nascent form of the Gods' will that had just been condensed.

Shinobu Kocho was also stunned by this nascent will, but quickly regained her composure, bowing slightly and respectfully to her God.

"Lord Xia Wei."

Lord Xia Wei smiled and said, "Welcome back, Shinobu."

Shinobu Kocho's heart instantly felt warm, and she became a little shy without realizing it. Besides her older sister, it was the first time she had felt such warmth.

After everyone recovered, they were overjoyed and couldn't help but kneel before this compassionate supreme God.

"Yaozai Ubuyashiki greets Lord Unmei Genso Dai Mikogami."

"Gyomei Himejima greets Lord Unmei Genso Dai Mikogami."

"Kyojuro Rengoku greets Lord Unmei Genso Dai Mikogami."

"Sanemi Shinazugawa..."

"Mitsuri Kanroji..."

...

Lord Xia Wei smiled as he watched the members of the Demon Slayer Corps, with their hands on the ground, sincerely kneeling before him.

"Yes, the Ubuyashiki clan, the Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps, I know you."

"I know everything about you. All the beautiful and righteous deeds you have done, I have seen with my own eyes. You are all good children."
