Inei's POV. Ubuyashiki Estate.
Inei: ...........
I'm silently meditating on top of the roof of the Ubuyashiki Mansion.
Inei: ..................
Until I sensed a crow.
Inei: A summon by Kagaya-sama, perhaps?
I decided to reveal my presence and blowed three short whistle blasts.
I extended my arm as the crow perched to it.
Inei: Kage, what is it?
My Kasugai Crow, which I named Kage, answered me.
Kage: Oyakata-sama is looking for you and the rest of the pillars.
Inei: I see. I already knew that Kagaya-sama will summon me, but the rest of the pillars as well.
Inei: Alright, I'll wait here for a while, until the other nine arrive.
Kage flies away and decided to wait at the main entrance, while I continue meditating.
A few moments passed, and it seems like all of the pillars have arrived.
I can even hear what are they talking about.
I first heard the conversation between Gyomei-san and Uzui-san.
Uzui: Hmmm..........
Gyomei: Where or what are you looking for?
Uzui: Oyakata-sama summoned all of us here.
Uzui: If all nine pillars are here.....no, wait........
Uzui: All ten pillars.........
Uzui: Where the heck is that guy?
Gyomei: You know that Saito-san will decide to reveal his presence to us if he wants to.
Gyomei: After all, among the Demon Slayers, he is said that he only answers to Oyakata-sama himself.
Uzui: What was his background again?
Gyomei: He is a former assassin and bodyguard of the Emperor.
Uzui: An assassin and former bodyguard of the Emperor!?
Sanemi, the wind pillar also joins the conversation.
Sanemi: Is that bastard still around? I remember when we had a sparring session, and when he effortlessly won against me, he still simply disappeared afterwards!
Sanemi: The sheer nerve!
Uzui: I guess he is the type of guy who wouldn't waste his energy in a duel.
Uzui: He only accepted the duel because you simply attacked first.
Sanemi: The sheer nerve of him to humiliate me............
