"I'm sure there's an answer. But what's important is that. I accept you both to be my students..." he said. I blink my eyes at what he said, and start to grin as I feel excited that he have agreed to accept Onii-Chan and I as his students. We're now one step closer to being Demon Slayers. We'll try our best and find a cure, so Nee-San can turn into a human again.
-Harsh Training-
Y/N P.O.V
Onii-Chan and I begin our training the very next day. We would climb up the mountain, following Urokodaki-San and descend it like the first test. Aside from that, the two of us also begins another training.
I nervously look over the edge of the waterfall. "Get in there..." Urokodaki-San said, instructing the two of us to jump. He wants us to become one with the water. I turn to look at him nervously. I feel annoyance coming from him. He kicks Onii-Chan off the edge.
I watch as he comically try to run mid-air. But in the end, he falls. "Nezukoooo! Y/NNNNN!!" He yelled out. I let out a nervous chuckle. I turn to look at Urokodaki-San.
"You wanna jump in on your own... or should I push you off too?" He said. I gulp and quickly jumps off before he could try to kick me. I cover my nose, trying to block any access so the water won't get inside my lungs.
I let my body follows the stream of the water, allowing it to bring me to the edge. I resurface and inhale some air. I lean my head against one of the rock, while staring up at the sky.
***
Onii-Chan and I sit down back to back. After a whole day of harsh training. We lean our heads on each other. I stare at the sky whilst trying to catch my breath. God, I feel so drained, and this only the first day.
We head back to Urokodaki-San's hut. I decided to check on Nee-San. Ever since the day we got here. She's only been sleeping, and no sign of waking up. I'm so worried about her. I'm really scared that... one day, I'd wake up to realize that she's gone.
"Nee-San... please be okay" I said. I lean down and place a soft kiss on her forehead. I stand up while smiling sadly at my twin sister's sleeping figure. I let out a sigh. I turn around and walks out of the room.
Onii-Chan and I start to eat our dinner. I turn my head to the side and notices some minerals. Among the variety of minerals, there are some nickel and barium. I furrowed my eyebrow as I stare at them for a while. I start to think about what happened to the first demon we encounter. How he turn into ash as soon as he makes contact with the sunlight.
"Y/N?" I heard Onii-Chan called out to me. I blink my eyes and turn to look at him. "Are you okay? You barely eat anything..." he said. I turn my head to look at the bowl in my hand. I take a few bites and chew slowly.
I swallow the food and turn to look at Urokodaki-San. "Um... Urokodaki-San?" I said. He turn his head to my direction. He hums softly to let me know he's paying attention to me. "If I may... can I use those minerals? I'd like to try and make something..." I said.
"Sure, I have no use of them. I can always go and collect more. But what do you need them for?" He asked. I hum at what he said and smiles.
"I wanna try to make something. Just a mini experiment. Since I've always loved to read, even as a kid. And the among the book I've read, are books about minerals. So I think I know what I need to do, along with the steps" I said. He just hums and nods his head.
"You may take as many as you need..." he said. I grin happily at what he said. I bow my head as a thank you. I start to eat more. I feel a nudge on my side. I turn to look at Onii-Chan who looked clueless.
"Oh don't worry about it. You'll know once I'm done..." I said. He let out a sigh and nod his head. He knows that he won't be able to get me to talk if I don't want to. He's gonna have to wait if he wants to know what I plan on making with those minerals.
As Onii-Chan writes in his journal. I start to work on my project. I sure hope this will work, because if it does. It's going to help a lot in battling against those demons. It'll make it easier to weakened them if it does work. I start to nod off as I start to feel sleepy.
"If you're tired... don't force it. Try to sleep, Y/N..." I hear Onii-Chan said. I just nod my head. I place all the materials down and lay down on the futon next to Nee-San's bed. I close my eyes and let myself drift off to sleep.
1,5 Years Later
After an endless days of harsh trainings. It's been 1,5 years since we got here. We're now standing in front of Urokodaki-San, waiting for his next instruction.
"I have nothing more to teach you. What happens next is in your own hands. Now come with me... there's one more thing you both need to do in order to determine whether you're ready for the final selection or not..." he said. Onii-Chan and I turn to look at each other. But we just follows after our teacher.
He have led us to two large boulders. I stare at it with a confused feeling. "In order for you to pass... and to be able to go to the final selection. You both have to try and split these two boulders in halves. After that, I'll allow you to go to the final selection" he said. My eyes widen at what he said. He turns around and walks away.
I turn to look at the boulder. "If we strike this boulder. Our sword will snap..." I said. I turn to look at Onii-Chan. He also looks troubled. I let out a sigh and turn to the boulder again. "Oh well, might as well try. This is the only way we'd get to go to the final selection" I said.
"I'll try with mine first..." he said. I just nod my head. He pulls out his sword and strike the boulder.
I cover my mouth, trying to stifle a laugh. He turn to look at me and glares playfully. "What? That was pretty funny, Onii-Chan" I said. He rolls his eyes and take a few steps back. Onii-Chan is a boy, who's essentially stronger than me. If he can't cut the boulder in half... how can I?
