Yoriichi Tsugikuni personality:

Kokushibo referred to him as a man who never showed his emotions, however, in his old age, during their meeting, Yoriichi cried when he saw his older brother, probably feeling sorry for him, but did not hesitate and almost immediately attacked him.

Yoriichi Tsugikuni history:

Yoriichi was born into an aristocratic family. Since the twins were born, it was necessary to choose who would become the heir of the house and who would go to the temple. Yoriichi was born with a strange mark on his forehead, and therefore his father considered him cursed and wanted to kill him, but the baby's mother did not allow this to be done, and as a result, it was decided that upon reaching the age of 10, the boy with the mark would go to the temple. Yoriichi lived in a small room. He did not speak until he was 7 years old, so he was considered deaf and dumb. He always ran up to her at the sight of his mother and held on to her left side. One day, out of charity, his older brother gave him a homemade pipe, and this caused unprecedented joy in the boy. At the age of 7, he tried his hand at fencing, and taking a small shinai (a wooden stick for training) for the first time in his life, he defeated an adult swordsman with four quick strokes. Unlike his older brother Michikatsu Tsugikuni (who was the heir of the house from birth), he did not like military affairs and did not strive for the rich life that he had. Instead, he loved games very much, and always wanted to play with his brother. At the same time, the older brother was fiercely jealous of the younger one for his fencing skills and for the fact that the latter was able to easily defeat teacher Michikatsu.

Yoriichi Tsugikuni history:

After discovering that Yoriichi has amazing physical skills, and besides, special vision (he could see the structure of the bodies of living organisms), it was decided to make him the heir of the house, and Michikatsu was exiled to the temple. But the boy did not like this fate, and when his mother died, he secretly went to his brother. Taking with him only his brother's gift — a small pipe, he went to the temple. When the loss was discovered, a written certificate fell into Michikatsu's hands, from which it turned out that his mother died of an illness in her left side. It turned out that Yoriichi saw his mother's illness with his eyesight and always supported her by her sore side. Realizing this, Michikatsu's nose bled and he tore up the papers. The ambassadors of the house of Tsugikuni discovered that there was no Yoriichi in the temple. He was considered missing, and his fate was unknown to everyone until the moment he met his brother. Despite the fact that he was supposed to become a monk at the temple, Yoriichi did not do so, instead he ran away, wanting to live freely. After Yoriichi fled to the mountains for one day and one night without any signs of exhaustion, he met a girl about the same age as him, named Uta, whose entire family had died. Yoriichi decided to live with her, and 10 years later Uta and Yoriichi got married, and Uta became pregnant with his child. Shortly before the expected birth of their child, Yoriichi left home to call a midwife, promising his wife to return before sunset. On the way, Yoriichi helped the old man, having lost so much time that he decided to return home and call the midwife the next day. By that time, the sun had already set, and when he finally returned home, he found Uta lying on the ground, killed by a demon. The tragedy shocked Yoriichi so much that he held their corpses in his arms for ten days in a row and buried them only after the pursuing Demon Hunter convinced him to do so. This was the reason why Yoriichi raised

Yoriichi Tsugikuni history:

Then, 10 years later, the Michikatsu military camp (who became a samurai and started a family) was attacked by a demon. All the warriors died, and Michikatsu himself would have died if an adult Yoriichi had not appeared, who instantly dealt with the demon. He apologized for his late appearance and for not having time to save his brother's subordinates. After that, Michikatsu, in an attempt to achieve his brother's skill, decided to leave his family, home and become a demon hunter. Yoriichi helped his brother in mastering Moon breathing, as well as other swordsmen in mastering the breaths derived from the breath of the sun, which he invented. As a result, his companions began to have marks that enhanced a person's abilities, but did not allow them to live to the age of 25. Yoriichi and his comrades managed to almost defeat Mudzan, but Michikatsu, who did not want to die because of the mark without reaching the level of his brother (and at the same time envious of him), refused to finish off the trapped Mudzan, and sided with him in exchange for becoming an immortal demon.At one point, Yoriichi encountered the Kibutsuji Mudzan, the demon progenitor and mortal enemy of the Demon Hunters, accompanied by Tamae. When meeting him, Yoriichi could sense his unbridled malice and bloodthirsty intentions, which he believed were like boiling magma from a volcano ready to devour everything, and it was then that he decided that he was born with a natural talent to defeat Mudzan once and for all. Mudzan stated to Yoriichi that he had lost interest in swordsmen using breathing techniques, as he had encountered and killed many of them. As soon as he said that, Mudzan held long tubes trying to kill Yoriichi, who immediately realized that any of these attacks would be fatal, and for the first time felt fear. Thinking that he was born to kill this demon, Yoriichi fought with Mudzan and was able to discern the totality of the seven hearts and five brains of Mudzan scattered throughout hi
