Morning, in Training Hall of Butterfly Mansion.

Giyuu and Shinobu had sparred for 30 minutes.

"Ara Ara Tomioka-san, your movements are still as slow as before. Has your training been useless all this time?" Shinobu asked then attack Giyuu with her wooden sword.

Giyuu tried to avoid all of Shinobu's attacks.

"Are you having trouble Tomioka-san?", asked Shinobu confidently while continuing to attack Giyuu.

"....", Giyuu did not respond, when he saw the opportunity he immediately jumped back.

"Kocho,...with that speed you can't even touch me. It means...I'm slow and you're fast, there's no difference", said Giyuu calmly.

Twich#, Shinobu was slightly provoked, "Alright Tomioka-san, I'll be serious now!", Said Shinobu immediately attack Giyuu with full speed.

"Do your best...", Said Giyuu.

After twenty minutes, none of Shinobu's attacks managed to hit Giyuu.

Shinobu jumped back "I'm faster, but why don't my attacks work". She thought.

Giyuu lowered his sword, with a straight face he looked at Shinobu, "Are you done?",

Twich#, "Of course not!", Said Shinobu want to attack Giyuu again with full speed.

But before Shinobu could move, Giyuu had appeared in front of her.

Deg!,

Before She could react, Giyuu's wooden sword was already at her neck.

"W_what?", Shinobu said surprised.

"You lost Kocho",

"B_but?", Shinobu's response still didn't understand.

Giyuu lowered his sword, "Indeed you are the fastest Kocho, but speed is not an absolute thing to win...", Giyuu said then walked to the corner of the field to rest.

Shinobu follow behind him.

"...because you really wanted to show off your speed, from the start you attacked at full speed. Without you knowing it, after 30 minutes your speed decreased",

"But I'm still faster than you Tomioka-san",

"I made you think like that. When your speed decreases, I also decrease mine....", Giyuu sat down on the floor, followed by Shinobu next to him. "...for people who always think themselves better than others, it's very easy to fool them",

"So you're saying that from the start you would have won Tomioka-san?", Asked Shinobu a little annoyed.

"Of course... Being confident is a good thing Kocho, but in here you have to stay calm...", said Giyuu while pointing at Shinobu's forehead, "...don't use all your abilities at the start, observe your opponent, find his weaknesses , and create a battle plot that benefits you," Giyuu continued.

"Ara ara, from the way you talk it's like an old man giving advice Tomioka-san", said Shinobu mockingly.

"And you are like a child who needs advice Kocho." replied Giyuu.

Shinobu smiled, "Now you are good at talking, Tomioka-san",

"It's all because of you Kocho",

"Of course, otherwise you will continue to be Tomioka the loner fufufu",

"But why do you want me to change Kocho...", Asked Giyuu while looking into Kocho's eyes, "...Is it because you like me?" Giyuu asked seriously.

Deg!
"Eh..?!", Shinobu was surprised. Her cheeks were red., "....th-that?",

Giyuu smiled a little, "..that I also learned from you, how does it feel Kocho?",

Shinobu's face was completely red, not because of embarrassment, but because of anger.

"Ara Ara Tomioka-san, I really hate you", said Shinobu annoyed.

While Shinobu was still scolding Giyuu for teasing her, Tanjiro and Tokito came over to the two of them.

"Good morning Tomioka-san, Shinobu-san", greeted Tanjiro.

"Good morning Tanjiro-kun, Tokito-kun", replied Shinobu.

"Tanjiro, do you need something?" Giyuu asked.

"It's not me Tomioka-san, but Tokito-kun who wants to meet you...", said Tanjiro then looked at Tokito.

Tokito took one step closer to Giyuu, "...hmmm who are you?", he asked.

Giyuu, who was still sitting on the floor, just stared at Tokito in silence.

Shinobu chuckled,

"Hora Tokito-kun, this is Tomioka-san that I often tell you about", said Tanjiro quickly.

"Ah yes, I remember now, Tanjiro often talks about you, you are considered Big Brother by him. So fight with me now!", Challenged Tokito.

"Eeeh...", Tanjiro was surprised,

"For what?" Giyuu asked.

"If I win, you have to be my Big Brother," Tokito said calmly.

"Eeeeeh...", Tanjiro was surprised again.

"What if you lose?" Giyuu asked.

"I will be your little brother," Tokito answered flatly.

"Eeeeeeeh...", Tanjiro was surprised for the third time,

"Ara Ara fufufu".
