Still, while Isao accepted this challenge, Shinobu, who sat by his side, felt confused and doubted.
"Do you have to buy this boy's dancing art? What's the point of it? Moreover, there is no need for you to use so much money to buy it."
Similar to the others, Shinobu didn't understand why Isao came to this deserted village and decided to meet this poor boy who sold charcoal to take care of his family. Moreover, the money that Isao brought was so much that she felt nervous when she brought them, and at the same time, she didn't think that this boy's technique was worth that much money.
"It's fine. It's fine."
However, Isao was as calm as ever and didn't even get angry at Tanjiro's rejection.
"By the way, Mitsuri, bring me one of those bags."
"Eh?" Kanroji was startled when her name was called, but she nodded hurriedly and then took one of the bags Isao had brought.
At the same time, Shinobu was so helpless. Usually, the ones who accompanied him were Hinatsuru, Makio, and Suma, but those three were... pregnant. While she wanted to beat up this bastard when she heard the news, Kanae only laughed and even felt happy that their family had become much bigger.
At the same time, Hinatsuru, Makio, and Suma cried and hugged Kanae while crying as they were afraid that Kanae would be furious at them, forcing them to abort the baby in their womb.
Fortunately... fortunately... they thought.
Still, if such a thing happened, then they would leave and hide themselves since even if they couldn't be with him, they would continue to give birth to his children since this was what they wished for.
Even if they couldn't become his official wife, as long as they could have part of his love, it was fine.
Still, watching the determination of the three widows, Shinobu felt so helpless and also couldn't get angry at them. Instead, she was angry at Isao, who made the three pregnant, wondering what was so good about this guy.
'Did his dick make them crazy about him?'
Shinobu decided to take care of this matter by herself and decided to follow Isao as she was afraid that he might impregnate another good girl. At the same time, she wished to craft a medicine to stop a pregnancy so no good girl was harmed by him.
Looking at Kanroji, who was obedient to Isao's words, Shinobu knew that she had to protect this pure and gentle young woman.
Fortunately, Shinobu wasn't late!
On the other hand, Isao didn't think too much, even though he had children. The scary one was just in the beginning, and after that, it was all fine since having one or more was all the same to him. Moreover, he was much better since, in this world, the degenerate was much more vile than the fiction.
Lastly, Isao was going to take responsibility for all of them who were harmed by him, so there was no need to be fussy.
Still, instead of those things, he wondered whether he could corrupt Tanjiro or not.
Such a good-guy attitude; was it just a setting or something that came from within?
Isao was curious, so he directly opened a bag filled with money in front of Tanjiro.
"...."
At that moment, Tanjiro's head was blank as he saw so much money. Poverty limited his imagination, and he had never thought that such a lot of money would exist.
"You don't need to worry. All of them are real, and you can have them if you teach me your family's technique."
"....."
Tanjiro was still in a daze and couldn't answer Isao's question.
"Is it not enough?" Isao raised his brows, then looked at Kanroji again. "Mitsuri, bring me more."
"Ah! Yes!" Kanroji nodded and brought more bags for Isao.
Soon, three bags filled with money were presented in front of Tanjiro.
When Isao wanted to ask for more bags, Tanjiro quickly reacted. "Stop! Stop! I... can't accept all of this. I... won't sell my family's secret to you." After a moment of hesitation, he chose not to sell the precious family's technique, especially to Isao, whose origin was dubious.
Isao also stopped, but then he asked, "Are you sure? With all of that money, your family will be able to have an easy life. Your family won't be hungry; your family can get good clothes, and you can have a good house that won't be afraid of the coldness of the winter. Moreover, you can send yourselves and your siblings to school for an education, bringing honor and glory to your family. I am sure your parents will be happy when they know their children are learned and educated."
"...."
Tanjiro felt like his worldview was constantly challenged, and he didn't know what to do. After all, what Isao had told him was the truth. If he had taught Isao his family technique, he could have all of that money.
By using that money, Tanjiro could give his family a proper life, something that he had never dared to imagine before.
Good food, good clothes, and a good house.
More importantly, an education!
Tanjiro knew how important it was to learn, and if possible, he wanted to learn, too, becoming a respectable person who could help the country with his knowledge.
All of them were within his grasp!
The chance was all in front of him!
But—
"I am sorry, but I have to refuse." Tanjiro bowed his head, and his voice was firm, rejecting Isao without hesitation. "No matter how much money you have decided to use to buy my family's technique, I won't sell my family's secret technique no matter what!"
Tanjiro wasn't stupid, and he knew that since Isao dared to give him so much money, his family's secret technique was important, and it should be priceless. Even though the money might be able to change the life of his money, he felt that the importance of this technique was far greater than mere money!
At the same time, deep in his heart, if Isao could give so much money without blinking, then the value of his secret technique would be greater, right?
As someone who sold charcoal, Tanjiro also knew the value of money even though it wasn't the most important thing in his life.
To sell something, you need to buy it cheaply and then sell it at a higher price to get a profit.
With all of that, Tanjiro was sure that the value of his family's secret technique was far more important than anything!
At the same time, Tanjiro wasn't sure whether the origin of the money was good or not, so he didn't dare to accept it. If that money came from a dirty origin, then wouldn't his dead father curse him during his sleep?
Yet, watching Tanjiro, who refused Isao's offer decisively while showing such a proud expression, all of those who saw him wanted to slap this guy's head!
Did you think that you were so smart?
Why were you so proud after you rejected so much money?
Somehow, they shook their heads, thinking that this boy was so stupid!
Yet Isao cried as he clapped his hands inside his mind. 'What a good boy!' He thought.
Money was a source of evil.
It wasn't something that should be used to tarnish their relationship!
Isao was wrong!
Isao had admitted that he was defeated by Tanjiro's purity!
"Mitsuri, take the money away. As expected, it is wrong to use money to become close to people. A relationship should be pure without something impure in between," Isao said solemnly with a helpless sigh.
"Yes!" Kanroji nodded in agreement and took all the money away.
"....." Shinobu.
"....." Everyone.
"So, I won't use the money this time, but I beg you, please teach me your family technique! I beg you!"
Isao begged with all of his might, bowing his head slightly, hoping Tanjiro could teach him the secret technique of Tanjiro's family without the help of money so he could get an excuse for learning the "Sun Breathing."
"Please!"
After putting away all the money, Kanroji also asked Tanjiro with all of her might.
If they couldn't use money, they would use sincerity!
The two hoped that Tanjiro could feel their sincerity!
At the same time, Tanjiro was also at a loss, feeling everything was so bizarre, and he also felt a slight sense of regret, especially after Isao asked Kanroji to put all the money away.
Still, he somehow understood why Isao could be so wealthy since this guy was so shameless!
