On the next day, Tanjiro kept asking why you didn't wake him so you literally didn't sleep for the whole night. You only ignored him because you were too tired to answer and his constant questioning was starting to annoy you. Before you could ask him to be quiet a sudden yell caught both of your attention.

"Waah! Marry me!"

'Wtf?' you thought and a sparrow also caught your attention who was flying towards you two and it landed on Tanjiros palms.

"Aha, is that so?" the boy said while nodding, "Okay I got it!"

'He understood the bird?' All you can tell was the sparrow was stressed due to its body language but Tanjiro was able to understand its words which surprised you.

Tanjiro walked ahead and dealt with the situation while you watched and eavesdropped from afar and you facepalmed at the blond slayers words.

Soon the blond slayer, Agatsuma Zenitsu, also joined you two. He became hungry so Tanjiro gave him his last rice ball. Upon hearing him say it was all he had, you reached out for your two last rice balls and gave him one.

Tanjiros crow suddenly shouted that they needed to run and you ignored the pain in your leg, yet you turned out to be the slowest.
"It seems important you two go ahead, I'll be there soon." you said letting the two of them run first. They wanted to wait for you but the crow kept shouting they needed to hurry so at the end the both of them had to go first.

When you arrived in front of a big mansion you were greeted by two kids.
"Sir, something inside the box was scratching!" the boy exclaimed in fear and the younger girl clunged into him.

"The box won't do anything." you assured them, "also, have you seen two slayers?"

"You mean Tanjiro and Zenitsu?" the boy asked and you nodded in response.
"They say you can rest and watch us." the girl added.

"Is that so?" you mentally thanked them who considered your health, "Then let's sit by the box, shall we?"

You asked the kids what happened to them and they told you their story. You nodded in understanding but the kids were still shivering in fear. You were bad at comforting kids so you thought of something, "Uh... have you two ever met a crow who can talk?"

"A talking crow?" the girl repeated and you nodded in confirmation.
"Kuro." you called out and soon a crow landed besides you in front of the kids, "This is Kuro, he's very friendly."

"Hello." the crow started and the kids were amazed and started to talk to it.

After a while, Zenitsu came out who was happy to see you. He kept complaining how scary it was inside the house and that he almost died. You sweatdropped but then someone else with a boar mask appeared some metres away from you.

The kids got behind you and the boar boy launched at the box. Zenitsu reacted quick and shielded the box with his body.
"Get lost you moron, there's a demon inside the box!" he yelled and Zenitsu didn't move. He kept kicking Zenitsu who resisted to move and you couldn't watch anymore. You were limping towards the aggressive slayer and when he was about to push you aside, you disappeared in front of him which confused him. Soon your figure appeared behind him and with one hit you knocked him out.

Zenitsu looked at you in awe and so did the children but they grew worried when you also collapsed on the ground.

"Y/n! Are you alright?!" Zenitsu cried out which hurt your ears.

You rolled over so your face was facing the sky, "I'm fine, it's just the tiredness." you say and they sighed in relief after hearing you talk.

Tanjiro also came out with a boy in his arms and was shocked at the two slayers who lied on the ground and at Zenitsu who had bruises all over his face.
