I looked around, I was kind of surprised.
"What? What's that?" The place is fixed, the mess that was around disappeared.
"It's seems that the area was been fixed". Said Giyuu
I looked at him confused:"but why? Who did that?".
He said :"I don't know".
I looked at him confused, who fixed this mess, is it Obanai? No he has a mission,Kocho? Absolutely no! She was so annoying when she proposed me fixing this place. Oh maybe it was....
I looked at Giyuu, Maybe he did that! And he is trying to act like he didn't do anything, omg! He is really a gentleman. I smiled at him
"Well, However did help me, I would like to thank them so much!".
He didn't say anything, he was looking at me with the same blank expression.
"I will go now, take care" he said and he start walking again.
"Thank you Tomioka san" I smiled.
Several days passed, I recovered completely, and missions began to be sent to me. I was guarding and supervising a specific area, and helping lower-ranking slayers in their missions.
At the same time, I was looking for any slayer to become my tsugoku. I wanted to teach them the sun breathing style, in case something happened to me, I want to transfer Yoriichi's power to them, but I have to choose carefully the Tsugoku, because I don't have enough time, there are many missions and little time for training. But that's okay, I'll manage myself.
When I completed my mission, I returned home, then passed by stone Hashira's house to greet him.Outside his house, I heard some flute sounds, and frankly, they were annoying.
"Hello Gyomei san" I smiled.
"Well hello (y/n) san, Namu amida butsu, how can I help you?".
"I came here to see Genya, is he here?".
"Ah, Unfortunately no, he went to a mission this morning".
"Oh,I hope he is doing alright,then sorry about disturbing your practice, I will go right now". I bowed and start walking.
"(Y/n) san, come inside, I want to invite you for some tea".
I turned around and smiled at him, he was a kind person.
"Thank you Gyomei san". I walked inside and we sat in the fence. Gyomei prepared tea and offered it to me. I was surprised at his ability to complete several tasks while he was blind. He was indeed strong.
"Gyomei san, thank you so much, it's delicious, but when I passed by your house, I heard the sounds of a flute playing".
"Yes,it was me, I'm trying to practice playing the flute, to play various Buddha chants,but unfortunately, I am doing it so bad, There is an old woman who comes to me and complains about the annoying sound of the flute. One time she wanted to hit me with her broom, but I ran away. So I decided to practice the flute in her absence. This makes me feel miserable" he cried a bit.
I giggled,just thinking about that old woman trying to hit Gyomei with a broom" hhhhh that's so funny, hhhhhh, it's fine Gyomei san, The beginnings are difficult, but with practice you will become a professional, If you want, I will help you a little".
"Ah,Arigato (y/n) san, but I wanted to ask you a question, I want to ask many times".
I looked at him confused:"yes sure".
"What's your relationship with Genya?".
I smiled a little:"well, he is my friend since childhood, he is an amazing guy! We used to help each other a lot".
Then he asked me :"was it the same with the wind hashira??".
My smile disappeared, I felt a sting in my heart,It was as if I had been slapped, but I was stupid when I answered his question. Of course he would ask about Sanemi, as I had completely forgotten that he was Genya's brother. I felt worried, then I sighed and smiled.
"I don't know what are you talking about Gyomei san?".
Gyomei understood the situation, and that (y/n) did not want to answer his question, and that she was avoiding answering in any way, so he did not want to inquire about the matter as long as she was annoyed.
"I understand, indeed Genya is an honest and kind-hearted person".
I felt kind of relieved when Gyomei changed the subject, but I don't want him to know more about the topic. I don't want anyone to know what happened with me and Sanemi in the past. I don't want them to know anything. I just want to avoid him as much as possible in order to achieve my goals, and any obstacle in front of me I will ignore and get rid of, even if it is my personal feelings.
"Yeah he is, well Gyomei san, I have to go right now, if Genya come back, just tell him to go to my estate, thank you for the tea".
"Of course (y/n) san, anytime, and about the flute practising, will you be free tomorrow?".
"Yeah sure, I will, after the training in the headquarters".
"Arigato (y/n) san, I am praying for you".
After that I went towards my estate and had some dinner,Next day I woke up and head to the headquarters. It was early so I find no one here, I suppose they will arrive soon.
I start practising the sun breathing style, using my sword to preform some dances that Yoriichi sama once taught me.
"This is an amazing dances!" I heard Kyojuro saying loudly.
I smiled :"thank you Kyojuro san, how are you doing today ?"
I saw the other hashira coming too, except Tengen . Maybe he was in a mission. Mitsuri and Kocho greeted me, Muichiro was looking at the sky, Obanai walked and greeted me too, he seems nicer then before, Giyuu came too and start training with his sword performing water breathing, for Sanemi, he was kind of mad, well he is always like that.
Kyojuro grinned:"I am totaly Great!!I like when we train all together! Thought we are always busy".
I nodded:"yeah indeed, let's train Kyojuro san!". I smiled.
We trained for two hours,I was teaching him some techniques that would help him in fighting, in order to increase his strength.
"If you swing your sword like that it will be better!" I said.
"Arigato (y/n) san! It does really help a lot !!".
"Hah? Oi Renguko! You let this pathetic teaching you?". Sanemi said smirking.
I didn't say anything, well Sanemi is been Sanemi. everyone looked at us then they continued to do what they are doing.... I didn't expect him to say something nicer.
Kyojuro said :"well, those techniques are amazing! Who taught you this,(y/n) san?"
I smiled happily :"well, my mentor did! He is the greatest person in the world!!".
Mitsuri came to us :"really? For me my menter was Kyojuro san!".
Kocho joined us :"and for me it was my old sister".
I said:" really? This is amazing! For me my trainer is Yoriichi sama, he is an amazing person! He wa a humble, wise and kind person to me. He taught me with patience. I really benefited from his advice. I won't lie to you, but he is the reason I joined the Corps".I was so happy, talking about Yoriichi sama brings me a lot of memories.
Kyojuro said:" it's looks like your trainer is an amazing and strong slayer".
"Yeah he is!!!".
Suddenly Sanemi said :"Tsk, Such a stupid girl, I think that man you are talking about is only an idiot bastard, who even tries to train a weakling like you!".
My eyes got wide after hearing what he said, did he just insult Yoriichi sama ?
I felt my blood flow increasing, and my heartbeat accelerating! Darkness fell over my eyes, I was so angry! I looked at him for the first time and said to him.
"What did you just said?"......
