CHAPTER TEN:

As the class began, (Y/N), Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke settled into their seats.

Inosuke couldn't help but grumble under his breath, expressing his annoyance that Elias wasn't in their class.

"This suck. I'm stuck with you annoying people." Inosuke huffed, but none of the three took his words seriously. Inosuke may have a rough exterior, but they know that he cares.

"Don't be so grumpy, Inosuke. Elias is just in a different class, that's all," (Y/N) said, trying to soothe her friend's frustration.

Inosuke crossed his arms, still clearly miffed. "Yeah, but it would have been fun to have him in our class. He's a cool guy," he muttered, his competitive nature showing.

Tanjiro smiled and nodded in agreement. "Elias isn't half bad! We should definitely ask him to eat with us later."

(Y/N) turned her attention towards the classroom, her heart racing slightly at the sight of Kyojuro.

She couldn't help but notice the change in his demeanor, the aura of annoyance surrounding him.

It made her wonder what might have happened to put him in such a mood.

"Settle down, everyone." Kyojuro hollered out. "We'll start class with a little surprise quiz. Hopefully you guys skimmed the book I was talking about yesterday."

Everyone in class groaned in utter annoyance.

As Kyojuro continued to discuss history, he was focused on conveying the lesson to his students.

However, his keen sense of awareness alerted him to the sound of Inosuke's whispering, even without glancing behind.

"Inosuke, no whispering during my class," Kyojuro said firmly, his voice carrying authority.

Inosuke's eyes widened in surprise, caught off guard by Kyojuro's sharp response.

He quickly nodded, realizing he had been caught, and mumbled a half-assed apology under his breath.

"Sorry, Rengoku-Sensei."

Throughout the rest of the class, Kyojuro continued to teach with enthusiasm, ensuring his students remained engaged in the subject.

He guided them through the lesson and even encouraged open discussions and questions, creating an interactive and educational experience.

As (Y/N) observed Kyojuro's demeanor, she couldn't help but feel a pang of concern.

Despite his efforts to maintain enthusiasm and engagement in the classroom, it was evident that there was something bothering him beneath the surface.

His eyes, usually warm and welcoming, now held traces of pain, annoyance, and stress. (Y/N) wondered what could be troubling him, and her heart went out to Kyojuro.
