A Week Later

Saishu's injuries has been fully healed, her crow finally came back but her crow's message gave her a tint of surprise.

"CAW! CAW! GO STRAIGHT TO HEADQUARTERS! THE UBUYASHIKI ESTATE! THE MASTER HAS WISHED FOR YOUR PRESENCE! DON'T ASK AND JUST GO! CAW!" It announced as Saishu nodded and started following her crow as she has no knowledge where headquarters was located.

Later on she was greeted by 2 girls that she familiarized at the final selection except they both have the same white hair and different hair ornaments, as they guided her to sit down on a futon.

"Welcome to the Ubuyashiki Estate, Tomioka Saishu" A soft calming voice was heard as Saishu's head suddenly felt light, and there she saw a man with a purple mark on his forehead that the girl began to think of it as a disease.

"I am Ubuyashiki Kagaya, also known as the master of the Demon Slayer Corps, but please address me as Oyakata-sama" the master added with those words Saishu rushly bowed infront of the man as he still have his full vision on his right eye he chucked at the girls action.

"Don't scold yourself, for not greeting me sooner, I am aware that you were not aware of my condition, and other information" he noted which the girl replied with 'correct'.

"Forgive me Oyakata-sama for asking from a sudden, but what is this sudden summoning that you wished to see my presence? Have I perhaps broke one of the Corps rule?" Saishu formally asked asking for an answer.

"I summoned you hear to ask you, if you are willing to join and become a Hashira? Last week your crow has reported that you have decapitated lower moon one, if you are not aware why I asked such question I say in order to become a Hashira you have to decapitate more than 50 demons or a twelve kizuki, but the slayer need to have the skills, and knowing the history I have not heard of such Breath of the Rain, may I question where have you learned this breathing?" The  master asked waiting for the girls answer, after hearing the master's statement Saishu wanted to explain that she lacks the skills of becoming apart with powerful Demon Slayers, but she needs to answer the master's question first.

"I-i created the breath for me to fully muster, I was trained to muster the Breath of Water but my body couldn't muster some of the techniques, so I decided to create my own that is derived from the Breath of Water" Saishu answered in full formality and honesty.

"I see, and this is proof that you have the skills to become a Hashira, normally a slayer gets to become a Hashira at the age of 15, but as for you, you are given an offer to become a Hashira at the Early age of 10, join and help us lead to victory, you are stronger than you think, Saishu"

With those words Saishu went speechless she cannot protest to the master of the Demon Slayer Corps, for he was a gentle, kind and an understanding man, as Saishu began to respect him with her heart.

"I gladly accept your offer, Oyakata-sama" she accepted but deep down she could never accept it as she is not worthy of the title.

"Well then come and wait for the other Hashiras, and to remind you there is another person who is becoming a Hashira the same as you. But I have a feeling that I need to introduce him late, for I am aware he has some aggressive attitude, do you understand my statement?" Oyakata-sama stood up with his daughters helping him, and from pity and respect Saishu rushed towards to help his daughters.

"Yes, I fully understand Oyakata-sama" Saishu replied guiding the master as he gave her a smile and mumbled a 'thank you' to the girl. Later on the daughters called all the Hashira's crows along with the other supposed new Hashira, as the girl with black hair later known to be a boy and the heir of the Ubuyashiki named Ubuyashiki Kiriya helped the new Hashira guide to where the Master needs to stay for the mean time to wait for the others. As they waited for the Hashira's to arrive the new Hashira and the heir of the Ubuyashiki decided to introduce with each other and to 'chat' which makes the new hashira asked questions about the Demon Slayer Corps Rules and the Heir to answer it all, this scene makes the Master's heart warm to see his children getting along.
