As Mitsuri walked down the exit way of hot spring, followed by Kanae from pretty far behind her. When she spotted Tanjiro at the bottom of the stairway, she promptly running up to him.

"Ahhhhh!! It's Tanjiro-Kun! Tanjiro-Kunnnn!!"

She shouted, ran up to him while her tears was falling down from her eyes.

"Oh! Please be careful! Your breasts are going to spill out!!"

Tanjiro exclaimed as he saw that she doesn't wear her yukata properly.

"Listen, listeeen!! I got ignored! I greeted him and he ignored me!"

"Who did?"

He asked confused at the female in-front of him.

"I don't know!! I asked him his name and he ignored me! Isn't that just cruel? I'm a pillar!"

Kanroji continued her sobbing.

"Now all that good energy I got from coming out of the hot spring is completely gone!!"

Meanwhile Tanjiro just looked at her, doesn't really know what he need to do to make her calm down.

"Just left her like that."

He suddenly heard a voice from up the stairway. As Tanjiro looked up he met with a raven hair girl with pale violet eyes.

"Kanae-San! I see you also here!"

Tanjiro exclaimed as he saw the familiar female.

"Wah! Wah! Tanjiro-Kun don't ignore me too!"

A light pink that shaded into a lime green hair female cried out even more than before. Tanjiro scurry looked back and forth between Kanae and Mitsuri.

"Does dinner ready yet?"

Kanae asked as she walked down stand next to Mitsuri that still crying out loud now.

"Uhh it looks like they will be done soon. I heard they used Matsutake mushrooms."

At the mentioned of food, the light pink that shaded into a lime green hair girl immediately stop crying.

"Whoaaa!!! You serious!?"

She joyfully walked away, humming a song all the way. Tanjiro looked at Kanae that stand still before asking her something.

"About the person that Kanroji-San mentioned. Do you perhaps know about him?"

"Huh? Doesn't think you will interested in that nonsense of her."

Kanae teased at Tanjiro's question, she walked away followed Mitsuri that very ahead of her now. He didn't think he will get the answer of who that person is, however he thought wrong. Some how Kanae mentioned about that person after she walked a few step away from him.

"You will see that person in the hot spring. Well, if you thinking to go there or he still not left. He pretty look like Sanemi-San when he was new to the corps."

She giggled a little bit as some memories of the past came into her mind.

"Perhaps cause they are siblings, so their personality quite alike."

Mumbled softly to herself.

"Well see you soon. I will go find Mitsuri-San that I don't know where she run to now."

Waved her hand to Tanjiro, as she walked toward the path that Mitsuri ran.

Dinner time had come. They were eating all of the food that were prepared for them. Kanae sat next to Mitsuri, while Tanjiro sat opposite of them. Half of the table were full of an empty plates and bowls that Mitsuri had already finished it all.

"The boy Kanroji-San met at the spring was someone from my batch. His name is Shinazugawa Genya."

Tanjiro spoke as he remembered that Mitsuri had not yet known about him or his name. She got ignored by Genya.

"Oh! Is that so..."

Mitsuri startled at the boy's name. She didn't really thought that he would be Sanemi's younger brother, since Sanemi never mention of him or any of his family.

"Actually Kanae-San also known Genya. I think that she knew it very long time ago, since she didn't seems to surprise about it."

Added Tanjiro. He looked at Kanae that now playing with Nezuko that laying down on the floor.

"Huh? You also know about Shinazugawa-san's younger brother!?"

Kanroji exclaimed, she thought that Kanae will also not know about him and surprised about this news. Kanae nodded her head as a replied, then she said something softy.

"It seems like they didn't get along very well, I'm not really what their relationship actually be."

Mitsuri moved herself from the table to play with Nezuko.

"Well, I have 5 siblings and I get along with all of them. I don't really know. I guess the Shinazugawa brothers are just scary."

She said playfully as she also making Nezuko laughed

"Genya still hasn't come here. I'd love it if we could just chat for a bit."

Tanjiro said, concerned about him.

"Looks like he isn't coming, and he told the villagers he won't eat at all."

Said Mitsuri, hugging and patting Nezuko's head. Kanae slowly standing up, she walked cheerfully toward the door.

"I will be back, or if I'm not. You can go wait at the room, I will be back there Mitsuri-San."

"Kanae-San, where are you going?"

Tanjiro asked worried about her.

"I will go find Genya-Kun and drag him to have dinner. You know, I can't left him being hungry or Sanemi-San might be sad that his brother skip meals."

Kanae smiled playfully as she spoke.

"Well, I hope he not die."

Said Mitsuri still hugging Nezuko.

"W—what do you mean of hoping he not die?"

Tanjiro asked scary at Mitsuri's sentence. She answered him with a little bit of unsure.

"Well, there's a rumor that aside from Ubuyashiki Kagaya-Sama that Shinazugawa-San 100% obey and almost never defy his order. There's also Kanae-San that can made Shinazugawa-San rarely opposing her."

Tanjiro looked frightened as he heard of what Mitsuri had told him. Well, he knew that Kanae can be sometimes scary but to also make Sanemi scare of her, he never thought of that.

Don't worry, Genya won't die, at least not because of Kanae *cough*. Beside Shinazugawa just respect (or simp-) her as much as Kagaya that he can rarely going against her.
