Haganezuka eventually did get back up after you had rendered him motionless by tickling him. However, the peace did not last as Kotetsu was quick to rile him up again.
The swordsmith got a fistful off the child's shirt and lifted him off the ground as he ranted angrily.
"Hey! Let him go!!" You yelled as Kanamori quickly scrambled to his side again and started tickling him.
"His sides!! Get his sides!!" He exclaimed as you and Tanjiro jumped in and tickled his sides.
The swordsmith rolled around on the ground, but still had a grip on Kotetsu. All of you kept on going and rolled on the ground with him, until he finally let up and released the young boy.
"Phew....jeez man...." You said while panting.
When you stood back up, you saw that your swordsmith held two swords in his hands. One for Tanjiro and one for you.
"I shall take the sword with me to refine and repair it. For now, you can have this one." He said while handing Tanjiro his sword and taking the one that was in the doll from him.
"And Y/N, I have reforged your sword as well." He said before handing it over to you.
You took it and bowed deeply to show your gratitude.
"Thank you Mister Haganezuka. I apologise for being so reckless and losing it in battle. I promise that this one will last." You said as you stood up straight again.
That only got a nod out of the swordsmith who disappeared a moment later, leaving you blinking in confusion.
"Damn....he sure does move quickly. Still, at least we have swords again!" You said happily as you admired your sword before tucking it into your belt again.
"I'm glad that we managed to sort all of that out. Plus, you're getting another new sword Tanjiro!" You cheered as your burgundy haired friend smiled and nodded.
"I know! I'm looking forward to seeing how Mister Haganezuka does! But for now, we should probably head back. I could really do with the rest." He said.
"You and me both." You agreed.
The two of you made your way back to the house that you were staying in. As you made your way through the halls back to your room, the two of your noticed Genya Shinazugawa just ahead of you.
It seemed as if he was heading back to his own room. Tanjiro being the kind of person he was, quickly ran after him to try and talk to him. All he got in response was the cold shoulder as Genya didn't want to acknowledge his existence.
But that didn't stop Tanjiro. He persisted and followed Genya into his room. Wanting to make sure that Tanjiro was okay, you followed suit and found him sat on the floor at a table.
The table had a bowl of rice crackers laid on it, which Tanjiro was more than eager to dig into.
You sat next to him, noticing they Genya was sat at a different table in the room with his back turned to you.
Again though, that didn't stop Tanjiro from talking to him.
"They say it takes three days and three nights to polish a sword you know. So that means he should be done the day after tomorrow. I'm worried though. Apparently his sword polishing art is so brutal that people have died." Tanjiro said, referring to your encounter with Haganezuka today.
Glancing over at Genya, you could see how irritated he was getting the more Tanjiro spoke.
"He really hasn't changed since final selection. Other than the fact that he is so much bigger!" You thought to yourself.
