The demon slowly got up glareing at Sanemi with drool coming out of her mouth. Her eyes filling with hunger but her body holding herself back, drool coming out of her mouth.

Sanemi was holding his wrist up waiting for the demon to attack "What's the matter, demon? Come on! You know you want it." he says grinning.

All the hashira's were staring at the commotion, Each Hashira had their eyes widen or were focused on the Demon and Wind Hashira with a blank face. The sound of the burgundy-haired boy struggling to get out the Serpent Pillar's grip.

"Iguro, you're digging into him to hard. Ease up a bit please." Shinobu says looking towards Obanai's direction. "I'm only holding him down because he's trying to move." he responded his attention remaining on the boy.

"Kamado, if you use any breathing techniques while your lungs are being squeezed, your veins will burst." Shinobu says trying to stop tanjiro from hurting himself.

"His veins will burst! I like it! Sounds flamboyant! Come on! Start bursting!" Uzui says excitedly.
"Poor soul... such a weak, pathetic child. Namu Amida Butsu."  Gyomei adds on.

Everyone's attention went back onto the demon, she was still forcing herself to resist her hunger. Her hands clenching into tight firsts the smell of the Wind Pillar's blood on her hand when his arm was leaking onto the box. Sanemi cackled at her reaction.

Tanjiro started screaming still trying to escape Obanai's grip. "Kamado!" Shinobu whisper yells. Tanjiro ripped the ropes off, making Obanai's eyes widened. Giyuu appeared beside him less than a second grabbing onto Obanai's wrist to force him off of Tanjiro.

Tanjiro crawled his way towards his sister and immediately got up and ran towards her, "Nezuko!!" he screams.

The demon immediately paused for a second like she was seeing something. she stood still, drool still coming from her mouth. Few moments she snapped out of it and glared at Sanemi. She turned away from his arm shocking him.

"What just happened?" Oyakata-sama asks.
One of his daughters reply "The demon girl turned her back in disgust. Although it she'd been stabbed three times by Shinazugawa. And despite his flaunting of his bloody arm in her face. She restrained herself and did not bite."

Sanemi did not like getting proved wrong one bit.
"So now, it's been proven that Nezuko won't attack humans, right?" Oyakata-sama says.

Y/n and Sabito looked at the Water Hashira and Serpent Hashira direction to show them glaring at each other. Obanai attempts to pull his wrist back but fails to. "What do you think you're doing, Tomioka?" Obanai spat glaring at Giyuu finally getting out his hold.

"Tanjiro..." Oyakata-sama called at him, which Tanjro immediately looked at the master. "I'm sure that even after this, there are some who can't accept Nezuko. You must prove it to them starting now. That you and Nezuko can fight as Demon Slayers. That you can be useful..." He says smiling down at him. Tanjiro immediately bowed to him in silence..

"Go out and defeat a Twelve Kizuki.Do that, and you'll be accepted by all. And it will give more weight to your words." He continued.

Tanjiro got up and looked at the master and said 
"I... Nezuko and I will defeat Muzan Kibutsuji!Nezuki and I will do it for sure! Strike with the sword that will stop the chain of grief!"

The master gave him a close eyed smile and said, "As you're ill-equipped to do so right now, Tanjiro, let's start by defeating a Twelve Kizuki, all right?", Tanjiro turned red so fast and said "Yes,sir"

The others laughed silently holding it in well some just kept a straight face while others held there laugh.

"It goes without saying that the Hashira's of the Demon Slayer Corps have phenomenal skills. After training themselves to death, they have defied death, and they've also defeated Twelve Kizukis." Oyakata-sama says.

"A good attitude to have!" Rengoku says.
"This is why hashira's receive respect and preferential treatment. So, Tanjiro, mind your manners when you speak." master says. "Y-Yes sir!" Tanjiro replies.

"One more thing. Sanemi... Obanai... Don't torment the younger ones too much." "As you wish" they both said.

I looked at Nezuko and she was in her box making angry muffled sounds. Y/n turned to face the demon staring at the young girl before turning away.

"Tanjiro, we have concluded our business with you. You may step back." Master says

"In that case, allow me to take Kamado into my house! all right, then! take them away please!!"
The kakushi immediately rushed in and took Nezuko and Tanjiro away.

"Now then, let us begin the Hashira meet—" but master got interrupted by Tanjiro.

"—Hold on a second! " he yells running back with Kakushi's yelling at him to come back and chasing him. Tanjiro fell to the ground and stared at Sanemi.
"Please allow me to head-butt that man covered in scars! i gotta... i gotta head-butt him as many times as he stabbed Nezuko!! he yells. "Head-butting isn't a violation of the corps right?" Tanjiro continues yelling.

The kakushi's struggling to hold him back, "Let go of me!" he yells trying to escape there grip. Out of no where 3 rocks hit the boys face with full force one by one making him hit the ground.

"You're not allowed to interrupt the Master." Muichiro says flipping the rock in his hand.Both of the kakushi's were apologizing on there knees begging for forgiveness. "Just get out of our sight." he says plainly.

Both of the kakushi's obeyed and picked up Tanjiro and ran off.

*Skip Hashira meeting*

"Sabito. Giyuu." Y/n said walking towards the two Water Hashira (S). Both of them turned to her direction but looking down from her. "A demon denying blood was shocking of course, but a demon is still a demon. You do realize what you're putting your life into right?" She asked making Sabito answer first, "Yes we do. Me personally, I have high hopes in those two. I hope you support our decisions.". Y/n sighed, but smiled, "As long as you're confident in your decision I'm fine with it. Giyuu, how do you feel about this?" She asked now looking towards him. Giyuu looked at her, "I believe they'll make a change and help out in the Demon Slayer Corps." He honestly answered making her raise her eyebrows. "Well that settled then. I'll be going along, I'm going to personally meet this Kamado Tanjiro" She said excusing herself walking away from the two.
