Being the best friend of Tanjiro Kamado, (Y/N) always wanted to help him sell the charcoal he brought with him from the mountain. But one day they had to work twice as hard as usual. This resulted in (Y/N) offering to carry Tanjiro's basket up with...
"CAW! HEAD TO MT. NATAGUMO AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! MULTIPLE SLAYERS WENT MISSING IN THE PAST COUPLE NIGHTS! GO THERE AND INVESTIGATE!" Tanjiro's kasugai crow cawed, annoying (Y/N).
Everyone's bones have now healed, and they got their first mission. The group was heading to the gate to leave for their mission.
"Alright, let's go. Thank you for everything!" Tanjiro bowed to the old lady along with Zenitsu and (Y/N).
The woman took out

that and hit them together to create sparks. Tanjiro thanked the lady once again.
"WHAT'RE YOU DOIN', Y'OLD HAG?!" Inosuke raised his fist. Zenitsu stood between him and the lady as Tanjiro and (Y/N) tried holding Inosuke back.
"ARE YOU STUPID?! IT'S A RITUAL! IT'S PURIFICATION BECAUSE WE'RE GOING INTO DANGER!" Zenitsu yelled again.
"At all times, please live with high pride. I wish you good fortune in war!" The old lady bowed as the four walked away, everyone but Inosuke waving.
"High pride? What's that mean?" Inosuke asked, not knowing what the old lady meant.
'This guy is completely clueless..' (Y/N) thought while facepalming.
"Yeah. The meaning isn't immediately clear. "High pride"..." Tanjiro started muttering. "Properly understanding your station? Not being embarrassed to behave appropriately for that position? Is that it? Anyway, that old woman is praying for our safety."
"What position is that? And why would it be embarrassing?" Inosuke asked the burgundy haired male.
"Well.. what exactly is "behaving appropriately"? Why does she care about us?" Tanjiro said, now a little bit louder. "She doesn't have anything to do with anything, so why? She doesn't understand our position, does she?" Tanjiro now picked up on his pace.
"Ah! He sped up!" Zenitsu exclaimed.

It was now night time, and the group of four demon slayers were in a clearing in the middle of a forest. They were right next to Mt. Natagumo.
"Wait! Will you please wait?!" As Tanjiro, Inosuke and (Y/N) were walking towards the mountain, Zenitsu stopped them as he was sitting on the ground, legs close to his chest.
"I'M SCARED! WE'RE GETTING CLOSE TO OUR GOAL, AND I'M VERY SCARED!" Zenitsu yelled out in fear.
"Why're you sitting down? You're disgusting!" Inosuke shamed the sitting down male.
"I DON'T WANNA HEAR IT FROM YOU! I'M NOT DISGUSTING! I'M AVERAGE! I'M NORMAL! AND YOU'RE ABNORMAL!" (Y/N) just sighed while rubbing his hair.
Tanjiro picked up a scent. Him and (Y/N) immediately looked back to see a man in the Demon Slayer Corps uniform crawling out of the forest. "H-help.." Is all the man could muster up.
