You continue your lessons and practice everything you've been learning so far, knowing it would be challenging. However, with the support of your friends, the journey feels less daunting. You're well on your way to mastering Japanese, aiming to become a valuable member of the Corps (hopefully), and uncovering the answers you seek—though it will take time.
Yet, training to become a Demon Slayer presents a whole different challenge.
As time passes, things become more complex. You find yourself spiraling into a dark hole, gripped by fear and uncertainty about the future, making it hard to see a way forward. Can you navigate through with the help of your friends and others, or will you continue to push them away out of fear, sinking deeper into darkness?
"Can I quit now?"
"No, now tell me what that says."
Your head lay on the table as you groaned, utterly exhausted and nearing your wits' end. "I don't know..."
"You didn't even look at it!" Uzui deadpanned when you didn't move or say anything else. "Kid, look at me..."
You slowly rolled your head to the side, your hair falling into your face. You tried to blow it out of the way, huffing when it barely moved and continued to obscure part of your vision. Uzui quickly leaned over and flicked your forehead. You recoiled, your hand flying up to cover the spot he had thumped as you pouted and rubbed at it.
"Ow, what the hell?! Ughhh, I can't do this," you whined, feeling frustration bubbling to the surface.
"Yes, you can. Are you just going to sit there and complain, or are you going to try again?"
"At this point, I'd rather just die," you muttered under your breath.
He flicked your forehead again, and you quickly covered your head with your arms, groaning and whining even more as you tensed up and tried to hide. Uzui clicked his tongue disapprovingly, grabbing your arms and prying them apart to make you sit back up. Despite his efforts, you remained slouched over, arms crossed in pure petulance. He looked at you sternly, his expression enough to make you want to laugh if you weren't feeling so stubbornly petty. He was clearly reaching his limits with you, but you couldn't bring yourself to care. Right now, you just wanted to disappear and avoid dealing with any of this. Remember what you had said about giving it your all, that you could do this and wouldn't give up?
Yeah, that was a damn lie.
Uzui wasn't having it and started demanding that you quit acting like a child and get back to work. He even threatened to start your training with Rengoku, which did terrify you a little, but you called his bluff and ignored him. You swore you saw a vein pop at his temple as he gritted his teeth and grinned at you with patience that was wearing thin.
