*3rd Person POV*
*Morning*

"*SQUAWK!!* IT'S MORNING! WAKE UP!"

"What the heck...? What's going on...?"
Zenitsu slowly rose out of his bed along with Tanjiro and Inosuke.

They saw a crow on the window which meant that one of the Demon Slayers or most likely...the Hashiras, has sent them a message.

"The Casualties of the Infinite Train are Increasing...more than 40 are now missing. You are to join Kyojuro Rengoku on site. Head west at once!"

The bird squawked once again and flew away, leaving the 3.

Tanjiro was ready to start a new mission, feeling that it was gonna go swell since they have the Flame Hashira to go with them.

*.......*

"I have decided to send Tanjiro and the others on the Infinite Train mission. Shinobu, may I ask what made you recommend Tanjiro?"

"Kamado kun has a pure soul and is capable of striving hard on a daily basis. And the upside he showed exceeded my expectations. And above all else, he also has a clear goal in mind, to defeat Kibutsuji."

"As far as that goes, I'm in agreement with you."

"Also, Kamado kun himself had told me that his father used the Fire Breathing technique."

"Oh...?"

"At this time, there's no denying he still has a way to go, but perhaps Rengoku, the Flame Pillar, might be able to provide some guidance."

"Yes. Considering his sister, who won't devour humans even after becoming a demon, as well as his encounter with Kibutsuji, It might be very well Tanjiro"s destiny."

It got a little quiet, and Shinobu was about to excuse herself so she could see Tanjiro and the others leave, but then she heard Oyakata-sama speak.

"Regarding the other one..."

"Yes...?"

Shinobu knew all too well who "the other one" is, she just hopes that he didn't get into a fight again.

"I ordered him to go for a mission, a village wants all the demons in the area exterminated completely as they're defenseless against them..."

She kept listening, the sudden silence isn't just for nothing.

"But Y/N doesn't appear to listen to me and completely ignored my orders. I was hoping you could somehow convince him as you are the one who he clearly sees as the authoritive figure."

"Of course..."
Shinobu bowed her head before excusing herself.

*......*

"Udon..."

Y/N was at an Udon stall waiting for his turn to get a bowl, he was 7th in line and many other people were behind him as well.

The Master of Shadows had gone unnoticed, and the people here apparently doesn't know him.

Or atleast...that's what Y/N thinks.

He's glad that people aren't fussing over the "Shadow Demon" for once since he's really hungry and has no time for crap.

The smell of udon went through the slits of his mask and into his nose, filling him with hunger and craving once more. He can't wait until he can chow down.

The shopkeep of the stall has always been a kind man to him, at first he was scared at meeting him because of the rumors, but when Y/N was just a hungry lad who had been travelling everywhere and is in fact not a demon...he gladly fed the boy.
