*Flashback*
Takeo was running after his brother on a mountain outside our village.

"Aniki you're running too fast I'm tired!"

Isamu looked at Takeo as he ran.

"Don't worry because we're close!"

They ran and went to the top of the mountain.
Isamu stopped and Takeo sat on the ground

"I am tired!"

Isamu smiled and patted Takeo's head!

"Good job my little brother!
Considering that you are only eight years old, you are very agile! "

Takeo smiled.

"You're better than me anyway!"

They rested and then continued walking.
Later, they arrived at a house in the middle of the forest.
Takeo was a little scared and hid behind Isamu.

"It looks like a haunted house!"

Isamu laughed

"Are you scared?"

Takeo got angry

"Of course not!"

He ran and entered the house as Isamu saw him and smiled.
Isamu enters the house and approaches Takeo who was curious

"Why did you bring me here?"

Isam walked and entered a room

"I wanted to tell you something!"

Isam approached a large chest and opened it.
He drew a sword and a book!
Takeo looked at him and was surprised

"Is that an Samurai Sword?"

Isam took the sword and the book and approached Takeo.
They both went outside and sat down next to a tree.

Isam gave Takeo the sword to look at him and he was surprised

"It's real!"

Takeo tried to hold the sword but it was too heavy and he sat down again laughing.

"I don't think it's for me!"

Takeo looked at the book

"What's in that book?"

Isamu smiled and looked at Takeo

"Here is one of the biggest secrets of our family!"

Takeo was shocked and sat down next to him.

"Tell me!"

Isamu continued to read the book.

"Long ago in our village there was a group of Samurai who protected people from some evil creatures!"

Takeo was listening intently

"These creatures killed people and destroyed everything in front of them, and it was difficult for our Samurai to deal with them.
One day a boy appeared in the middle of a battle.
He passed through Samurai and stood in front of the creatures.
Everyone was shocked and they just looked at him.
The devilish creatures were more numerous but the boy was not afraid at all.
At one point the creatures began to attack him and he took his stance and took a deep breath.
He shouted ...
Breath of The Dragon!
A giant dragon appeared and followed the boy's movements, defeating all the devilish creatures.
It was like a miracle.
Everyone called the boy a messenger from the gods.
Then everyone started learning how to fight like him.
Our village swordsman became one of the strongest in the nation.
This way of fighting was inherited for generations, but at one point it seems that our ancestor stopped this kind of fighting from spreading further."

Takeo was surprised

"Amazing!
I want to be like that guy! "

Isamu smiled

"If you're going to be like him, you have to train first!"

Isamu and Takeo set a goal for themselves that day.

They would fight to protect others like that boy too!

The Present .....
Takeo's POV

It's been a week since that tragedy happened!
I still can't accept it.
My family does the funeral ceremony for my brother.
I couldn't keep myself from sadness.
I wanted to scream louder and the tears started to fall.
I just could not accept it.
In my mind I thought my brother wouldn't want to see me cry like that.

I did not say goodbye to my brother.
Because I know he will always be with me.

After that day I left for that house where we went every day.
I always trained with my brother but I didn't take training seriously.
From now on I continued to train with all the strength I had.
During the time my brother was alive, we learned how to fight with swords from a teacher, but we came here secretly and practiced another way of fighting called ...
Breath of The Dragon!

My brother was very agile and he learned a lot by reading in the book about the kind of Breath.
It was divided into forms and we started learning them.
I managed to learn the first three forms but each of them required a very large strength to be used.

Now I am obliged to learn all these forms.

I have already chosen my path.
I will become a Demon Slayer.

This was chapter two and now it's revealed that Takeo will use Breath of The Dragon!
Takeo chooses his path.
