Miyauchi Hikage was quite curious about what was happening with the diary in Honma iko's hands at that mont.
Had it received so kind of danger warning, or had a new commission been refreshed in the diary?
However, as he needed to maintain his disguise while explaining to her how to adjust her breathing rhythm, he naturally didn't show any particular reaction.
He first extended his hand towards Honma iko with a puzzled look, waving it in front of her to indicate whether she hadn't understood what he had just said.
At the sa ti, a sliver of his Stand, Yellow Temperance, extended from the shadow beneath his feet, silently circling behind Honma iko. It rested on her shoulder with a force almost imperceptible to a normal person, while simultaneously observing the contents of the diary in her hands.
Regarding whether Yellow Temperance could be seen by the girls, Miyauchi Hikage had also conducted an experint with Shiina Mashiro.
In its normal state, Yellow Temperance's form of existence was close to that of a ghost. People who could see ghosts could vaguely see the outline of Yellow Temperance with careful observation.
This was the extent of what Shiina Mashiro's unlocked primary spiritual vision could see.
To see Yellow Temperance's appearance completely clearly, one would need at least an interdiate or higher level of spiritual vision.
Although Miyauchi Hikage didn't know if Honma iko had unlocked the spiritual vision feature, which required extra reading value, under his careful control, it was naturally impossible for her to discover any problem.
And as Miyauchi Hikage asked her what was wrong while quickly reading the updated content in her diary from behind her.
Honma iko, after confirming the commission's situation, quickly put away the diary in her hand and then apologized to Miyauchi Hikage, saying that she had just been accidentally distracted.
At the sa ti, she and Miyauchi Hikage were also secretly pondering the information of this commission.
For so reason, this suddenly refreshed temporary commission did not give a specific commission level or detailed task situation, only a "task deadline" that seed a bit unsettling.
The task deadline was three months.
It seed like there was still nearly a quarter of a year to slowly complete this commission.
But Honma iko obviously couldn't drag it out until the last minute to complete this commission.
Because the task details not only ntioned that the sooner the commission was completed, the higher the reward, and the easier it was to trigger the next stage of a new commission, but it also used a line of rather conspicuous red text to indicate that if she failed to complete the commission by the ti the deadline ended, her body might undergo unexpected special changes.
So, if she couldn't complete this commission within three months, could she die?
Honma iko subconsciously thought of this possibility.
Although her mind was still full of doubts, not knowing what had happened to her body at the place where she drowned to cause her to be so weak now.
But she decided it was better to discuss these things with the girls in the group after she got back.
Honma iko secretly glanced at Miyauchi Hikage.
Better not.
Although Miyauchi Hikage was indeed very capable and had a good talent for Hamon, in the end, he was still just an ordinary person who had only been practicing Hamon for half a month.
He was unlike her, who had at least learned many of the world's secrets and inside stories from the mysterious person and the other girls with diaries.
If she went there to investigate, she could probably find ways to avoid risks with the diary's warnings. But if Miyauchi Hikage went with her, and if there was real danger there, she couldn't guarantee his safety.
Miyauchi Hikage had already saved her once. Even without considering Shiina Mashiro's matter, she couldn't possibly do sothing so ungrateful.
For now, it was better to continue to diligently learn from Miyauchi Hikage how to control her breathing rhythm. After learning these things, she should have more confidence when she went back to that place.
As for Miyauchi Hikage's side.
After seeing the commission that appeared in Honma iko's diary, he was also multitasking, thinking about what was wrong with her body.
A three-month commission period would put it at around August.
And in the ani, the deceased nma appeared before the protagonist as a grown-up ghost around that ti.
The timing matched up.
So was there so connection between the two?
Could it be that after four months, if the Honma iko before him couldn't complete the commission, she would also turn into that special kind of ghost from the ani?
Looking at the thread on her body, Miyauchi Hikage could only be sure that what made her like this was not a curse. Otherwise, after she got the diary, it should have issued a warning to her.
That is to say, at least from the diary's perspective, Honma iko's physical condition and the "truth" in the mountains had not reached the standard to trigger a warning.
This made Miyauchi Hikage even more curious about what was on that mountain.
But on the surface, he still maintained a calm expression. In about an hour, he explained in detail to Honma iko how to adjust her breathing rhythm.
Honma iko's aptitude and comprehension were indeed a bit different from Shiina Mashiro's, but with the cheat of the diary, she wasn't too far behind.
Honma iko also knew that her comprehension was not very good, so throughout the whole process, she was almost always taking notes in her diary.
After all, this was sothing the girls in the group were now paying more attention to. Shiina Mashiro couldn't explain the process clearly, and she wanted to teach the other girls these skills after she learned them herself.
After the lesson, at Honma iko's own request, the two also exchanged contact information.
Even if there was anything she didn't understand after she went back, she could continue to ask Miyauchi Hikage through text ssages.
And before returning to the filming set, Miyauchi Hikage also continued to maintain and consolidate his persona in the eyes of the girls who held the diaries, telling her that if she encountered any trouble, she could contact him at any ti.
"My ancestor was once indebted to the Demon Slayer Corps, and then I learned the breathing thod from you all, confirming and seeing the other side of this world."
"Although my strength is not great, if the Demon Slayer Corps were to assemble again, I would be very willing to continue to fulfill the promise my ancestor made back then."
Hearing this, Honma iko was naturally filled with sha and wanted to declare that she was not actually a descendant of the Demon Slayer Corps several tis.
But the matter of the diary could not be explained. Caught in a dilemma, she could only once again state that she didn't know anything about the Demon Slayer Corps, and in her heart, she still regarded Miyauchi Hikage as the benefactor who had saved her life.
She didn't even notice that Miyauchi Hikage's so-called "fulfilling his ancestor's promise" didn't actually require him to pay any price. Instead, it logically made her view him as "logistics personnel" with no combat power.
After all, the Demon Slayer Corps mber who had saved his ancestor had originally only wanted the Miyauchi family to hang a wisteria flower crest in front of their door.
It would have been enough for mbers of the Demon Slayer Corps to be able to stay and rest at the Miyauchi house when they were short-staffed or passing by.
However, perhaps that Demon Slayer Corps mber ultimately fell in the Infinity Castle battle, or perhaps after annihilating Muzan, the disbanded Demon Slayer Corps no longer needed any wisteria flower crests, which was why they never returned to Asahigaoka.
Of course, if the descendants of those Demon Slayer Corps mbers really encountered so trouble and Miyauchi Hikage found out, and if he had the ability to solve it on the sly, he would still lend a hand.
In short, after Miyauchi Hikage's contact with Honma iko this ti, and after she ntioned what happened during her ti with him in the chat group after returning ho, many of the girls in the chat group also developed a greater sense of approval for Miyauchi Hikage.
