**Hours Later**

"Alright! Here we are, Tori! The village in the south. It's good to be back here; it's only been just three months," Myron exclaimed, a warm smile spreading across his face as he took in the familiar sights of the village.

Tori perched on Myron's shoulder, looking around with keen interest. "Not bad. It's quaint, I suppose. CHU!" she remarked, trying to sound unimpressed but failing to hide her curiosity.

As Myron walked through the village, he was greeted with waves and smiles from the villagers who recognized him. "Welcome back, Myron!" they called out.

"It's good to see you, Myron!" another villager said, their voice filled with warmth.

Myron waved back at them, feeling a deep sense of belonging. He continued walking until he reached Aiko's ramen shop. He just stood outside there quietly, his heart racing and his hands shaking with anticipation as he remembered his first kiss with her. The memory of that moment played vividly in his mind, filling him with a mix of excitement and nervousness.

Taking a deep breath, Myron stepped inside. The familiar aroma of ramen filled the air, bringing back fond memories and a sense of comfort. Aiko looked up from behind the counter, her eyes widening in surprise and joy when she saw him.

"Myron...."

Myron chuckled. "I've come back to you, just as I promised, Aiko," he said, giving her a warm smile.

Aiko rushed around the counter, her eyes glistening with tears of happiness. "I'm so glad you're back," she said, hugging him tightly. "I was so worried."

"I missed you too, at least it's only been three months this time," Myron said, returning the hug with equal warmth. "I've got so much to tell you."

Aiko pulled back slightly, looking into his eyes. "Come, sit down. I'll make you your favorite ramen, and you can tell me everything."

Myron nodded, feeling a deep sense of belonging as he followed her to a table. Aiko quickly prepared a steaming bowl of ramen and placed it in front of him.

"Thanks, Aiko," Myron said, taking a seat and savoring the aroma. "This smells amazing."

As Myron began to eat, he recounted his experiences during the Final Selection, his training with Rengoku, and the new friends he had made. Aiko listened intently, her eyes shining with admiration and pride.

"You've been through so much, Myron. I'm so proud of you," Aiko said, her voice filled with emotion.

"Thanks, Aiko. Your support means everything to me," Myron replied, feeling a deep sense of gratitude.

As they continued to talk and share stories, Myron felt a renewed sense of purpose. He knew that no matter how challenging the path ahead might be, he had the support and love of those who cared about him.

"Hey Myron, since you're a Demon Slayer now, why are you here? Shouldn't you be going out on missions and saving people's lives?" Aiko asked curiously.

"Yeah, I know," Myron replied with a chuckle. "But first I have to wait until my new sword arrives, which will take about 10 to 15 days. So for now, I'm going to spend a few days here before heading back to Goku's place."

Aiko smiled, relieved that Myron was staying a little longer. "I'm glad you're here. It's been so long, and I've missed having you around."

"I missed you too, Aiko. And it feels good to be back," Myron said warmly. "Besides, I promised you I'd come back safe and sound, didn't I?"

Aiko nodded, her eyes shining with happiness. "Yes, you did. And you kept your promise. That means a lot to me."

Myron reached across the table and took her hand. "I'll always keep my promises to you, Aiko."
