TANJIRO POV
A few days after my victory, we began our final checkup with Shinobu, the insect hashira.
Shinobu: Since you're in physically good health, you're fit to carry out missions now
Tanjiro: So I'm done training?
Shinobu: Yes, next is in-field combat
Tanjiro: Great! Oh, before I forget, there's something I wanted to ask you
Shinobu: What is it?
Tanjiro: Have you ever heard of the Hinokami Kagura?
Shinobu: I have not
Tanjiro: Huh?! I... uh... well, then, what about fire breathing?
Raphael: There is no such breathing style
Raphael, who was in the infirmary, spoke up.
Raphael: mistress has informed me that you used a tradition in your family called the Hinokami Kagura, a dance, and it has aided you in fighting the lower moon demon
Shinobu: Using a dance to fight one of the twelve kizuki, that's an interesting way to fight demons
Raphael: Yes, and from mistress' description of each form of the dance, it highly resembles the five primary breathing styles of Wind, Water, Flame, Stone, and Thunder. But going from the name, it is likely closer to Flame breathing
Tanjiro: r-really?
Shinobu: That's quite interesting
Raphael: Also, you must not refer to Flame breathing as fire breathing as they're not the same
Tanjiro: Really? Is it not the same thing?
Shinobu: I don't quite know the exact details myself. But I do know they're very strict with the exact phrasing
Raphael: it is much like how you were irritated at Inosuke for getting your name wrong
Tanjiro: Oh, I see
Shinobu: The Flame Hashira, Rengoku might know about this technique, but unfortunately, he's out on a mission
Tanjiro: I understand. Thank you for everything that you've taught me. I'll ask Mr Rengoku when I see him again
Raphael: If you want, I could ask master Ubuyashiki to let you, mistress, Inosuke, and Zenitsu to accompany the flame hashira on the next mission
Tanjiro: Really?!
Raphael: Of course, I'm sure master would be excited to see a Hashira at work
Shinobu: Well then, I wish you all good luck
The next morning, Matsuemon woke us up.
Matsuemon: the casualties of the magen train. More than forty people are missing as it currently stands. You are to join the Flame Hashira, Kyojuro Rengoku on-site. Head west at once! Head west at once!
RIMURU POV
After Tanjiro woke me up to tell me that we were given a new mission.
I went ahead to prepare food for the road.
As I was walking through the halls with Raphael on my shoulder, we overheard Tanjiro talking to kanao.
I quietly observed their interaction.
I found out that Kanao has a problem with making decisions and that she flips a coin to help her decide.
