All of the people came back to the hall.

The hall was designed differently from the last time they had come. Instead of the big dining table like previously, there were many separate tables with capacity of four to five people all around the hall just like a wedding.

" What the hell ? The hall has changed." Sanemi spoke up, being the first one to come out of a trance.

At the surprise visible on the faces, the voice of the Creator spoke up, " Yes, it indeed has. I deduced that there will be no need for all people to sit together as there is actually no crucial point to discuss nor any dinner to be held. And everyone will want to have some private time with their loved ones. Also, judging from the last time you were here, you'd had some difficulty in setting the chairs for the separations."

It was indeed true. The last time, when the Hashiras needed to have a meeting for the incident with Muzan displayed, they had a little trouble moving the chairs from around the hall. So did the others like The Kamaboko Squad, to have group conversations.

" It is right, my children. This time there is no need for any meeting, so let us catch up with our beloved ones and spend some time with them, before we get engrossed in reacting again." Oyakata said, his voice soft as he encouraged all the others to mingle up.

" Can we know how much time do we have ?" Nezuko inquired, remembering that the Creator had said this break will be a short one. If it was just 10 to 15 minutes, then there was no use of starting a discussion she knows will take longer.

" You all have about 40 minutes before the next screening. Also feel free to have some tea or snacks. Oh and If you want to use the washrooms or anything it is near the gate you all entered from. Right for the females and Left for males." The voice informed all the people.

" That is quite a break." Shinobu said.

" Yeah, let us enjoy this break to ourselves. The Creator said that the next episode is going to lead us to a long mission. It probably will be something tense." Rengoku said.

" Yeah, also it is going to be the future. It will be exciting but at the same time scary. As there will be no prior assurance." Tanjiro said, a little worried about the future.

" That is true." Kanae said, as she smiled and added, " But we must always remain ready for all the challenges and I have faith that you will be alright, Tanjiro Kun."

Tanjiro smiled , 'I just hope I was able to turn Nezuko back to a human.' He thought as he turned towards Nezuko, who smiled at him too.

" Let us now disperse to have some time with our friends and family." Himejima said in his deep voice.

Hearing this, many groups diverged. The butterfly sisters ( Kanae, Shinobu, Aoi and Kanao ) went to the north of the hall while Sanemi and Masachika opted for the seats near them. The Kamaboko squad ( - Kanao and + Senjuro ) headed in the east as Uzui and his wives headed towards the west of the hall. Iguro, Kanroji and Rengoku, who was already eating something, sat in silence near Himejima and Muichiro, both of the groups settled in the center of the room. The Water breathers ( - Tanjiro ) were seated in the middle of the room as well while the Ubuyashiki couple sat a little far in the north east corner of the room. Shinjuro just sat in the southeastern lone corner of the hall, drinking.

With the Butterfly Sisters.....

" So do you guys want to eat something ?" Shinobu asked.

" No, I think we are all full though a cup of tea would be nice." Kanae said as a cup of tea she had specifically thought appeared in front of her out of nowhere as Shinobu repeated the action.
