Kimetsu No Yaiba x Male! Reader

We all bowed before Oyakata-Sama. His gaze was fixated on me, and he opened his mouth to speak.

"Y/n." He called.

I rose my head slightly.

"Yes Oyakata-Sama?" I asked.

"Please, stand up." He said.

I did as told and looked at him.

"You have brought a demon alongside you I see." He said.

I scratched the back of my head as I looked back at Aiya.

"It seems to be that way." I said.

"He's going to get us all killed..." Iguro said.

I looked at him with a glare to shut him up.

"I only brought her because she wishes to be human again. I figured that since Tanako was already on a mission to get her sister's humanity back, I could help Aiya by doing the same thing." I explained.

"And what led you to this conclusion?" He asked.

"The dragon demon, Bokuto, he reasoned with my cold heart, and persuaded me to spare Aiya's life and keep her alive for the time being. But if she tries anything, I will see to it that her execution will be quick. That is a promise. She will be by my side at all times, and if she dares to leave without my permission, her head will be mine." I saison

"Oh you don't have to promise so much for this. I only wanted to know where your heart is...you are free to go." Master said.

"There is one more thing....this boy, his name is Hajime Ichiro..." I said, motioning Hajime over to me.

"His name is...what?" Iguro asked.

The rest of the Hashira looked at me in shock.

"Yes...his last name is Ichiro. The same last name of former Cosmos Hashira, Yamamoto Ichiro." I said.

Hajime looked up at me at the mention of Ichiro-Sensei.

"He had my last name too? Where is he?" Hajime asked.

"He is sadly no longer in this world with us." Master said.

"Yes..." I said.

Hajime looked down sadly. I felt guilty, it was my fault he died...

My...fault...

"Y/n!" Sanemi exclaimed.

"Huh? What-...What did I miss?" I asked.

"We're asking you why did you bring the brat?" He asked.

"Because I feel like he may be Ichiro-Sensei's son..." I said.

"And? If he's not? You just kidnapped someone's kid and now you have to raise him." Sanemi said.

"Even so, the resemblance was too obvious for me to overlook and ignore, and if he isn't Ichiro's son, well that's fine, his adoptive family didn't care enough about him because they left him for dead in the village I went to." I said.

"Right...well...what do we do Oyakata-Sama?" Shinobu asked.

"We should sit back and see what Y/n does. I trust in his ability, and I trust in his word." He said. Before anyone else could say anything, Oyakata-Sama turned to leave, and was guided by his children in the darkness of his home.

All of the Hashira looked at me, Iguro glaring at me with disgust.

"What?" I asked.

"I feel like you've taken my dream to get along with demons to heart. You're warming up to us aren't you?" Shinobu asked.
