Inei's POV.
Well, Tanjiro's being defeated by the battle doll. So after a few test runs, Kotetsu and I changed the doll's mechanism and explained to Tanjiro how it works.
Kotetsu was amazed by my knowledge about this and I told him about the battle dolls that was used in the Imperial Palace that is used in training.
Kotetsu is also a good observer and he noticed Tanjiro's movements. I had to explain it to Tanjiro since Kotetsu is not good at teaching.
And five days have passed, and Tanjiro still couldn't get a hit. I also tried to spar with the doll and I was able to dodge all of it's attacks.
Since I don't want to break the arms, I decided to disarm the swords and it went pretty well.
Also, I used the Breath of the Sun, and it was.......effective as I outmatched the doll.
Kotetsu: Damn, he's amazing.
Tanjiro: I know. He's really amazing.
Inei: Tanjiro, refine your moves.
Inei: Observe your opponent's subtle movements and predict their next move.
Inei: I fought demons with lots of hands........
Inei: Also, Tanjiro, use the kagura.
Inei: Refine the steps. Repeat the steps over and over. Start from the first form, not until you perfect the step, you will have to use it over and over.
Tanjiro: Y-Yes, sir!
Tanjiro's been training for five days straight without water and food. But I told Kotetsu about the importance of rest during training.
It went on until the seventh day of his training.
Kotetsu: Amazing!
Inei: Yeah. Tanjiro is not able to perceive his opponent's movement.
Tanjiro: Thanks to that advice, nii-san. Also, I've refined some steps of the Hinokami Kagura. I've been able to perform the kagura even longer.
Inei: Good.
Inei: Then, let's put it to the test.
We got wooden swords and had a spar.
Tanjiro: Hinokami Kagura, Dance!
Inei: Breath of the Sun, Fake Rainbow.
Tanjiro: !!!!
I emerged from behind, as I landed a sweeping blow under his feet.
Tanjiro: Waaah!
Kotetsu: How do I feel like, Inei-san is much stronger than the doll?
Tanjiro fell to the ground.
Inei: Needs improvement, but your speed and power had gradually increased.
Inei: Now, back to the training doll.
