Finding the right Trainer in Slayers 2 can be harder than defeating whatever is waiting at the end of their quest. This Slayers 2 NPC location guide covers the eight Breathing trainers, useful merchants, and the characters involved in Final Selection, with locations and requirements to help you plan your next trip.
All Trainer Locations in Slayers 2
Breathing Styles unlock through trainer questlines, with level 25 as the current starting milestone. Find your chosen trainer, check their resource requirements, then complete their training. Blood Demon Arts follow a different acquisition route, covered below.
All Breathing Trainer Locations in Slayers 2
Here are the locations we have so far. A regional route is a starting point, so check the nearby terrain before assuming you have reached the wrong area. Unlocking Wall Climb also makes several of these trips considerably less painful, and many of them aren't even possible without it.

| Trainer NPC: Rengu Breathing: Flame Breathing | Location: At the top of the house near the red bridge from Mistfall Village. Requirements: Level 25; 10 Demon Horns. |

Bring the resources for your chosen style, then follow its training objectives. Reaching the trainer does not unlock the moveset by itself. For help choosing, see our Slayers 2 Breathing Styles tier list.
Blood Demon Art NPCs and How to Obtain Arts
Our current early-access research points to Muzan’s questline, Demon transformation, and an Evil Art roll followed by an obtainment quest. We do not yet have reliable locations for separate Art-specific NPCs. The table below keeps the known progression leads together instead of assigning each Art an assumed trainer.
| NPC or Progression Step | Location & Requirements |
|---|---|
| Muzan Demon progression | Location: TBA. Requirements: Negative reputation and Muzan’s questline are reported; exact threshold and tasks: TBA. |
| Evil Art acquisition | NPC/location: TBA. Process: After Demon transformation, roll an Art and complete its obtainment quest. Roll costs and individual quest routes: TBA. |
| Blood Manipulation / Blood Sickle | Art-specific NPC/location: TBA. Additional requirement: A Sickle is reported in the early-access build. |
The current Art roster includes Arrow, Dream Manipulation, Ice Manipulation, Reaper, Shockwave, Tamari, Blood Manipulation, Obi Manipulation, and Explosive Blood. For a comparison of their kits, see our Slayers 2 Blood Demon Arts tier list.

What to Do if an NPC Is Missing in Slayers 2
First, check the location’s height: a trainer may be on a roof, above a cliff, or beyond an underwater passage. Then check your active objective, level, and previous quest turn-in. If the area appears not to have loaded properly, try rejoining. For Final Selection, check whether the trial is currently open.
We will add more precise directions and missing NPC details as we work through the map.
