    [T]he 5 senses of the human body.. sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch. These senses are very important to any living organism. But what if I tell you about another sense that no one talks about? You maybe wondering about it for a while, or perhaps you already know of it.


It's a sense that you may have been even using from the start, a sense that has always been with your entire lifetime. And you never realised the crucial existence about it, mainly due to the fact that you were blinded by your own 5 senses. 


These senses define a person as a whole. A man who lacks sight, never lacks hearing. A man who lack smell, can differentiate from 1 to another with the help of their other senses. The Taste, that gives pleasure while eating food, and differentiating from 1 substance to another, it have saved your lives. While someone who lacks the Taste, can live their life with the utmost caution of what ever they eat. 


Calling someone perfect is an understatement, as a true human would understand the difference from one sense to another, and use all of them equally. People with arrogance, use only a few of their senses for any type of work management. Mainly due to their own selfish needs. 


The ones that don't understand the human body to be used for good, can never fully grasp on the concept of the 6th sense. Those who reside their soul within god, or goodness herself can grasp the concept of this ancient feeling, the feeling of joy and happiness that glides of the heart. To put it in a simpler way, when you participate in a tournament, you feel anxious at first, but slowly when you win the first matches, the confidence shoots up. 


But then during the finals, you lose miserably. Why? Overconfidence.. That is the reason why most people can't grasp even the 5 senses of living beings. Without the pure knowledge on the 5 senses, people can never truly understand the 6th sense.


 Back in the Sengoku Period, Samurais with pure hearts would always win a battle, due to the overcoming of arrogance and overconfidence. This is purely the reason why these honorable Samurai were able to defeat Evil Forces


"Then Himejiima Sensei, why did the Demon Slayer corp still continue even after the Sengoku Period?" a boy raised his arms, his uniform sleeve slowly melting down his hand, while his arms were still up in the air. 


The blue uniform contrasted with his Dark Red hair, that glisten with the shine of the sun. All the girls would be drooling just imagining about him being sinful. His eyes as pure as the god's pet, shining bright like a ruby with a tint of white popping out, the corners of his lips slightly lifting upwards into a smile of curiosity. 


The teacher heard his words with a bright heart, listening to his students whispering about what the boy had just asked, despite his blindness, the man learnt to use his hearing, touch, smell, and taste. The man turned to the boy and slightly smiles. 


Bringing his hands together as he clapped then once, the sound produced was loud enough for the neighboring classes to hear and silence everybody. All the students shut their mouths immediately, going back to their seats looking down at the textbook.


"Kamado, you must understand, that just because the Sengoku Era was the Golden Ages of the Demon Slayer Corp, doesn't mean that they succeeded in defeating the demons, there was another theory stating that these Demons still exist in Japan till this day, but in very little quantity, but it got ruled out after thorough investigation by the Japanese Government." the man had taken his role as a teacher, to make the boy understand the topic clearly.
