The tenth pillar PT.1

Oyakata-sama hasn't heard of you since you last sent the letter regarding the descendants of the Hinokami Kagura, your letters were so simple yet so direct. It didn't matter the content of your letters, he will always save them as if they were worth more than gold.

Oyakata wanted to see you again, and he finally has a good excuse to make you come back for some time to the headquarters. He has just given the orders to retrain the ones named Tanjirou and Nezuko and to bring them to him. You had already explained him in full detail about them, full detail to you consist of 1 paragraph so said paragraph in your letter was made of 5 simple yet direct sentences.

He was flabbergasted by your letter, it was the first time that you wrote so much to him, of course said letter was now treated as national treasure by him and his family. His blood related kids loved you and called you uncle, and his wife treated you as if you were her brother.

So, he sent around 10 crows to you because he knew about your bad-mouthed crow, your crow, Tammy, was feared and respected by others crows so he had to send 10 of them so they don't chicken out at the time of relaying the message. He knew that when his message was already successfully relayed to you, you will be here in a short amount of time.

'HOW LONG ARE YOU GONNA SLEEP! GET UP ALREADY!'

Oyakata could hear his kids screaming at someone, so he just assumed that Tanjirou and Nezuko were already here as he ordered. It already been 5 hours since he sent you the crows, so he estimated that you will be here from 5 to 10 minutes. Finally, his kids will meet you, they were always so curious about you and he was sure that the Kamado siblings were as well.

He has already ordered the cooks to make every kind of food, even though you looked quiet you were quiet the glutton and weren't picky about your food. Maybe its because of your power that makes you so hungry whenever you use it. His blood related kids were excited going around making everything look nice to when you come home. It already has been quite a long time since you came home.

His wife, Amane, was preparing some scissors to trim your ends because she knew that if she doesn't trim your ends you will be going around with your hair reaching the ground, and even though you will always keep it in either a pony tail or bun it must be quite heavy if you let it grow way too much.

'THE PILLARS ARE NOW PRESENT!'

Kagaya was brought back from his thoughts when he heard that all the pillars were present, by that he knew you were about to arrive. How long must your hair be now? Amane was preparing to give you a short trim, he couldn't wait to comb it and he was sure his daughters were eager to make you their doll to play with various kind of hairstyles.

'This is the headquarters of The Demon Hunters. You are on trial right now. Kamado Tanjirou-kun.'

"Ah, the trial has now started, I should get ready."

Kagaya started to get ready with the help of his family, even though he still had time left, the curse made it quite difficult to continue do simple stuff as changing to him. He could hear quite the ruckus coming from outside and the screams of the young boy Tanjirou, even though he trusted his kids he couldn't deny that some of them were quiet the troublemakers.

'IF YOU CAN'T TELL THE GOOD DEMONS FROM THE BAD ONES YOU SHOULD QUIT BEING A PILLAR!' The voice from Tanjirou could be heard clearly and loudly.

'Damn you… I'LL RIP YOU TO SHREDS!!' The Wind Hashira, Sanemi Shinazugawa, said with a venomous voice as he stared at Tanjirou while he protected the hand made box he made for his little sister.

"OYAKATA-SAMA IS VISITING!"

The sudden proclamation made everything go quiet as Oyakata entered to the grounds.

"So, you have come, my cute swordsmen."

Oyakata voice could be heard, as he entered with two of his daughters as support, Tanjirou couldn't help but be surprised since he finally met the person behind the Demons Slayers.

"Good morning everybody. We have some really nice weather today. Is the sky blue?" Oyakata asked with a gentle smile as he continued to talk to everyone present at the moment.

"Our members have gathered for the 'Pillar Meeting' the we hold once every six months as per usual. I find this pleasurable."

Tanjirou couldn't help but give a quiet gasp as he sees Oyakata-sama's scar, before he knows it The Wind Hashira made him bow to forcefully as he had stayed frozen at the sudden entry of the man behind the Demon slayers. He looked to his left and saw all the Hashiras bowing towards Oyakata with a huge amount of respect.

"We find it most honorable to be in your presence Oyakata-sama. We eagerly pray for much happiness upon you."

"Thank you Sanemi."

'I wanted to say that… and greet Oyakata-sama…' The love hashira thought to herself a bit embarrassed.

"Let me humbly say there is a soldier present in the pillar meeting by the name of Kamado Tanjirou who has brought a demon. I would like to explain the scenario. So, will you allow me?"

Sanemi, the wind hashira, spoke with a respectful tone to Oyakata-sama regarding the current situation present in the meeting. Tanjirou was astonished to hear him say that since doesn't look intelligent or logical at all.

"I see. I'm sorry he has surprised you all. I have given my approval for Tanjirou and Nezuko. So, I want everyone here to accept them."

A few gasps could be heard from the pillars, everyone was surprised by the sudden proclamation Kagaya has said regarding the Kamado siblings.

"Aahh… even though Oyakata-sama wishes us to do so, I am reluctant to give consent."

The stone pillar, who couldn't stop crying and was always in a prayer pose, shared his thoughts. As he did this, many other pillars started to share what they thought about it while some choose to stay quiet.

"I also flamboyantly oppose this. I can never accept a Demon Hunter who brings demons along."

"I will abide with all your accordance Oyakata-sama."

"Either way is fine for me… I'll just forget right away…"

"…"

"Don't trust them, don't trust them. We all hate demons to begin with."

"I respect you from deep within, but I can't understand your thinking!! I completely oppose this!!"

"We are demon hunters who annihilate all demons. I wish to punish both Kamado and Tomioka." Sanemi added with a vicious tone to his voice.

Oyakata expected this of course, it was weird to accept a demon when their main objective is to kill them all.

"Now, the letter."

"Yes."
