Narrator POV

"Do you think she'll be waking up soon?"

Tanjiro opened the sliding door, revealing Nezuko sleeping peacefully atop the small bed.

"Well, there's nothing wrong with her. I've already checked. It's just like she's asleep," Rimuru answered.

Tanjiro looked back at Nezuko. She had slept through the entire day, not even once waking up or showing any signs of life.

Urokodaki slowly stood up from where he was sitting.

"Let's go."

"The Demon Slayer Corps has around several hundred members."

"It's an organization unrecognized by the government."

"Yet it's existed since ancient times, and we continue to hunt demons today."

"But as for who's leading the Demon Slayer Corps, that remains a mystery."

"...Demons."

"Staple food... Humans!"

"They kill humans and feed on them. No one knows when and where they first appeared."

"Their physical prowess is remarkable. Wounds heal in the blink of an eye. Flesh is restored after being hacked off, and limbs can newly be regenerated."

"Some demons can shape-shift. Others have other-worldly  powers."

"They can only be killed by sunlight or decapitation with a special sword."

"The Demon Slayers battle the demons with their own mortal bodies. Since they're human, their wounds are slow to heal, and, once lost, their limbs won't grow back!"

"Even so, they battle the demons..."

"To protect other humans."

Rimuru sped through the forest, avoiding every single trap that came his way.

Tanjiro tried to follow behind but was easily out-speeded by Rimuru who only seemed like a blur as he descended the mountain.

"I am a trainer."

Urokodaki stared at his two new students.

"I literally train swordsmen." 

"There are many trainers,  and each of them train their pupils with their own regimen in their location."

"To join the Demon Slayer Corps, you must survive the Final Selection process held on Mt. Fujikasane. Whether or not your eligible for the Final Selection is up to me."

Tanjiro jumped over a tripwire. 'Starting today, I'm going to keep a journal for Nezuko. I remember that Rimuru has one, and I think that it's a great idea.'

'I'm descending the mountain again today. I'm going to train my hardest so I won't die during the Final Selection, and...'

He looked up as Rimuru jumped off the trunk of a tree to avoid several wooden darts. He then landed with a roll and wasted no time moving forward.
