00- The tenth Pillar

The tenth pillar, yes that was you. Many people wouldn't believe about the mere existence of a tenth pillar, they also will tell you that it's absolute bullshit that the tenth pillar is far stronger than the rock pillar.

Why don't people know about your existence? About your strength? Well, they do know about you, but you are portrayed as an urban Legend. Even the other pillars do not know you personally, but they do know about your existence thanks to Oyakata-sama. He spoke briefly about you, but the sound of his voice when he spoke about it, about you, it was like honey was dripping from his words. After that, he never spoke about you, even when the other pillars will ask, he will just give a small smile that will speak way more than he will with words. The pillars and even God himself is a witness that that smile of Oyakata-sama was just meant for you, and only you. At the end of the day, the pillars questions will be answered with that smile, but instead of helping them with their curiosity it will only make it worse.

Who is the tenth pillar? Why have you never shown yourself? How come you are the only that can make Oyakata-sama smile that way. Are you that strong.

So many questions yet there is no one to answer them.

In the end, your existence became an urban legend, instead of being portrayed as the tenth pillar you were portrayed as a God sent angel, a guardian.

Your identity is unknown and you like to keep that way. You go around killing demons, you have even killed an upper moon and 3 lower moons, but you, of course, keep it secret. You love your privacy, after all, you even go as far as to cover your whole face, so no one will identify you.

When you visit Oyakata-sama, tho he insists on you calling him by his first name, you will just sit by his side in silence. He will just smile and talk about his day and his children. He will always ask you to take off your mask and you will always take it off when you are with him. He can no longer see your beautiful face anymore because of his curse, but he will 'see' with his hands. He will touch your whole face with his hands, he never gets tired of it. The soft-touch of your skin, your long eyelashes, your lips... He will then proceed to touch your hair and comb it. You let your hair grow because of him, so he can have more to play with. he will comb it softly with his fingers while talking to you about random things. The rare times you will answer back to him, he would always give his full attention and devotion to hearing and recording your voice inside of him. So he will never forget it, even in the afterlife.

Even tho you were younger than him, you still was his soulmate. Here is the thing about soulmates, they aren't always the person you love 'romantically'. Soulmate for Kagaya is that person your soul resonance the strongest with. That person you can trust your life with. Sometimes your soulmate is your best friend, and the love of your life is another person.
