The sound hashira's training is simple. It's stamina training, basically all we have to do is run around very quickly, which was easy. I was already hashira material, so some running wasn't very hard. As I ran I always used to see other demon slayers falling and gasping for air. I'm very happy my trainer was harsh on me, or should I say - I was harsh on myself.
- How do you... do it... so.... easily... - asked one of the slayers when we got a break. He was still breathing hard and was sweating.
- If you ever get reincarnated as a demon slayer, just remember to get trained by Kyoukomurasaki- sama. Learn the lightning breath. - I calmly said, although I didn't say about how I was harsh on myself, I pushed myself so hard back then... but then I would have to explain and over-share to a stranger.
- wow... - that's all he could say.
- Yui... Yui... YUI!- shouted my trainer. - you shouldn't push yourself so far, trust me, my training is enough.
- And? I don't want to be enough, because "enough" is sometimes not enough, and what am I gonna do then? I must be the strongest, I must... I must... I... - I mumbled the last words as I passed out. I woke up in Kyoukomurasaki-sama's house, in my bed.
- see, this is why you shouldn't push yourself this much. - she said as she boiled tea. I sat up.
- It's just...- I started, looking down. - It's just how I cope with it.
- I understand, I really do, Yui.- she said as if she was sorry. The kettle's whistle was what broke the silence between us. I drank my tea and layed down for a while. I didn't expect to fall asleep, and as I woke up and understood what happened...
- I'm sorry! - I yelled as if Kanaka-sama would punish me for sleeping.
- Don't apologise, you needed it.
I layed down again, since I was still tired. I didn't sleep in a long time, and my fatigue was building up, so it's good that I did it, because the next day I managed to do a move I wasn't able to do in weeks, which was making me frustrated and pushed me to push myself even more.

Just as all the swordsmen ran off due to Uzui-sama's wishes, I saw Tanjiro talking to him and his wives. I joined in for a little talk.
- I'm glad to see you here. I've been wanting to talk. - Sighed out Hinatsuru.
- Ya! We've all wanted to tell you that we've heard of hashira position!! - Shouted eagerly Suma.
- Yeah, right! You go get 'em girl! - Makio cheered me on.
- Thank you, all of you. This is a chance I have waited for so long...
- I know you're fit for a hashira. - Uzui-sama came up as quiet as ever.
- Thank you, well, I'm off now, I still have that lap to finish.

And with that, I passed Tengen-hashira's stamina training as one of the first, alongside tanjiro, I moved to Tokitou-hashira's training.
