~Third Person POV~

G

iyuu walked into the room. Sabito and Urokodaki were already sitting at the table.

'Hes alive.. I need to fix everything..' Giyuu thought to himself, sitting besides Sabito.

'I remember this..'

"Ah, good morning Giyuu." Urokodaki said, handing him breakfast.

"..Morning." Giyuu replied, eating his food.

'I wonder if they'll notice me being different..'

"Hey Giyuu! Ready to try that boulder again?!" Sabito asked, ready as ever.

'I struggled with that boulder last time.. I can do this..'

"Yeah!" Giyuu replied, finishing up his food before going to take a shower.

'I wonder if I could still do Total Concentration Breathing.. Lemme try.'

Giyuu struggled for a little bit, but was able to get it down.

'I probably won't be able to do this while sleeping.. But I will probably be training better while knowing how to do it slightly.'

Giyuu finished up his shower and got changed, heading outside.

'I won't be able to do my 11th form, but I think I can still do it. Sabito is first so I'm gonna train a little bit' Giyuu thought, starting to exercise outside.

Sabito came rushing back, excited. Giyuu stopped and rushed over to him.

"I did it! I can go to Final Selection! You have to try now!" Sabito said, pushing Giyuu over to the boulder. Urokodaki was already there with a new boulder, waiting.

Giyuu took a breath in, holding his sword out in front of him.

'These two watching me is giving me a lot of pressure, but I have to do this now!' Giyuu thought to himself, mentally preparing himself.

"Maybe he-"

Giyuu swung at the boulder in a split second, slicing it in half.

'I did it better than last time!'

"Well then, I'm proud, Giyuu. I'll allow you both to go to the next Final Selection together.." Urokodaki said, patting both of them on the back before heading back to his house.

"Wow nice Giyuu!" Sabito said.

"Thank you.." Giyuu replied, "Should we go train?"

"Yes, let's go!" Sabito said, dragging Giyuu by his hand.

The two trained until they had to travel to final selection. They both had their masks on, given by Urokodaki before they left.

Once they made it, Giyuu looked around, remembering everyone from last time.

'I can't let him die this time.' Giyuu thought to himself, letting Sabito take the lead.

It had been three days into the final selection, and Giyuu knew what this meant, especially after hearing the same scream from last time.

The two rushed over to the screaming, to see a giant demon with multiple hands.

"Ah! More of Urokodaki's students! I can't wait!" The Demon said, like last time.

"Giyuu! S-"

"Water Breathing!" Giyuu yelled, rushing the demon.

"You idiot! Listen to-"

Giyuu stopped listening to Sabito, standing face to face with the demon in front of him.

"...11th form.. Dead Calm"

The demon used it's attacks, but Giyuu countered it with his 11th form.

'I actually did it!'

Sabito watched in surprise, not knowing what Giyuu was capable of before now.

"What!? You just countered my attacks!" The demon yelled, in shock and mad.

"Suck it up! Water breathing.."

Giyuu and the demon fought until Giyuu killed the hand demon, watching it dissolve into the air.

"Giyuu! That was awesome!" Sabito yelled, happy for his friend. "That was very manly! Now let's bring these guys somewhere safer, they are injured"

Giyuu nodded and helped Sabito bring the others to a safer area.

"Thanks for saving us...We appreciate it" They said, bowing.

"It's not a problem. Shall we go then, Sabito?" Giyuu asked. Sabito nodded and the two continued on with their final selection.

The two ended up passing final selection. There were less people than last time but some things aren't gonna go the same.

Crows came flying down, landing on everyones arms.

"Hello old guy.." Giyuu said, happy he got the same crow again.

"Now, choose an ore for you sword.." The twins said, showing them where the ores are.

Giyuu and Sabito were the last to choose theirs, before final choosing and walking back. They got their uniforms and started heading back to Urokodaki's house.

"He's gonna be so proud of us! Let's try to be slow though, these are heavy!" Sabito said, taking the lead.

Giyuu just smiled, proud of himself for saving his friend.

'Theres other things I can do to save others too.. I just have to wait..' Goyuuy thought, following behind his friend.
