A rueful smile and Zeno looked around. This new world was set in Japan again. This world's story happens in the Taisho era. By his experiences so far he was somewhere in the middle or end of the Sengoku period.
He remembered reading up a lot of Japanese history when he was in a world of the 21 century helping some kid become a mafia boss.
Google was a blessing existing only in the modern worlds. It would be a long time before this world would reach that time. If he remembered correctly this worlds antagonist was born in early Heian period, 700-900ish, maybe even before. So demons already lurked the land. Going by his mother's story, his father was in the demon slaying corps.
He said this world valued mortality a lot. And that the antagonist wanted an immortal body that could live in the sun. Zeno is an immortal. He seemed to be in a sticky situation, not the best world to be in. He can be accidentally seen as a demon because of his agelessness after reaching 17 so the demon slaying corps would be against him. But he couldn't side with demon's, he was here to aid the human protagonist.
Well food for though later, now he was still 4 and had 13 years to live before fake dying or something to conceal his immortality. This lives family seemed really nice and hey, maybe his father would teach him those fighting forms they used. Breathing forms was it?
