Chapter 2
"EEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHH! THE FLAME HASHIRA IS A DEMON! WHY DID THIS HAPPEN! HOW DID THIS HAPPEN! WHAT IF HE KILLS US ALL!"
"For the last time Zenitsu, Mr. Rengoku is not going to kill us." Tanjiro said.
"You don't know that!" Zenitsu screamed.
Tanjiro sighed. They've been walking for three nights so far.
"Tanjiro, can we rest somewhere. I'm exhausted." Zenitsu said.
Tanjiro looked at his comrades to see they were pretty exhausted. Even Inosuke was exhausted though he's trying to hide it.
"Yeah. We can rest here." Tanjiro said. He placed Nezuko's box down next to a tree. He sat down and leaned against it. Kyojuro joined him.
"Mr. Rengoku, if you don't mind me asking, is it hard being a demon?" Tanjiro asked, looking up at the Hashira.
At this, Kyojuro's voice grew soft. "It's not that different from being human. Being human you have limits to your strengths and you tend to think about death. Being a demon, you have unlimited strength, power, and you heal much faster."
"I can see why you want your sister back. Being a demon is too much for a human to handle." Kyojuro added.
Their conversation paused for a short moment. Then Tanjiro asked another question.
"Would you really hurt another human?"
"Of course I wouldn't. But if it comes to that, you know what needs to be done." Kyojuro responded.
Tanjiro looked away, knowing exactly what he meant. "Right."
Tanjiro looked at Inosuke and Zenitsu who were already fast asleep.
"You should get some rest young Kamado. Don't worry, I'll keep watch." Kyojuro said with a smile.
Tanjiro smiled back. "Alright."
