3rd POV. Infinity Train

The Leaf Hashira, Kaedehara Akito, and the Flame Hashira, Rengoku Kyojuro, already boarded the train once the said train was put back in commission.

While the two are eating lunch with the bento.......with Kyojuro already ate at least 16 bentos, while Akito is about to finish his own bento.

Kyojuro: Umai! Umai! Umai! Umai!

The other passengers are just dumbfounded of Kyojuro, as for Akito, he bowed his head as a sign of apology for the commotion that his mentor is making.

Akito: I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

As someone who came from a noble samurai clan, Akito knows the gesture that his mentor is making.

Once someone become a warrior, they were taught to always savor every bite of their meal, as it could be their last.

That is the reason why Kyojuro is always saying tasty every time he takes a bite of his food.

Meanwhile, Tanjiro (and Nezuko who is inside the box), Zenitsu, and Inosuke went inside the train.

Inosuke being raised in the moutains, was excited when he saw how fast the train is.

As the trio are walking.......

Zenitsu: Tanjiro, do you know about the Flame Hashira?

Tanjiro: Yes. He had that bright hair color.

Zenitsu: I see. Oh, that's right, he's also Kaedehara-senpai's mentor, right?

Tanjiro: Yes, that's what he told me.

Zenitsu: Kaedehara-senpai is amazing once you saw him in battle.

Zenitsu: He always keeps his cool and as if he's calculating every moment that is happening in battle.

Zenitsu: And the thing was.......he supported me, he's the one who gave me the chance to behead the demon.

Tanjiro: I also saw that when I met him and Tomioka-san. He's always been supporting his allies.

Tanjiro: Maybe that is what he does best.

Tanjiro: Which is not a bad thing, right?

Zenitsu: Yeah. Also, his voice, it's just so calm. As if I can hear the sound of autumn in his voice.

Tanjiro: Yeah, I can also imagine that.

Zenitsu: Also, when he told us that he is a half-demon, I don't know if he was lying since he can walk in the Sun.

Zenitsu: But when he revealed his ability to use a blood demon art....

Tanjiro: But his blood demon art is beuatiful, as if he made a painting.

Inosuke: Monito seems strong!

Tanjiro: Inosuke, it's Akito, not Monito.
