The Uchiha Demon Slayer! | A Sasuke Story

Chapter 7

"THE MASTER HAS ARRIVED." Two voices said. All the Hashira got into kneeling positions with Sanemi slamming Tanjiro's head on the ground. Sasuke crouched next to Sanemi, Nezuko's box next to him.

Sasuke glances up, seeing a man in a white haori, sticky purple veins over his eyes. But what surprised him was the man was blind, he had a calming aura as he walked forward.

"So good of you to come. My beloved children..." he said, and his voice made Sasuke's shoulders relax slightly.

He is guided forward onto the porch where he felt the sunlight. He moved his head as if he was looking at the sky before facing forward with a calm smile. "Good morning, everyone." He said after the birds stopped chirping.

"The weather is strikingly nice today. Perhaps with a blue sky? It pleases me that we have made it to our semiannual Hashira meeting with no personnel changes." He started and Sasuke listened.

"I am pleased to see you in good health as well, master. I fervently pray for your continued good fortune." Sanemi said and Sasuke gave him a glare. 'Bipolar bug lookin ass.' He rolled his eyes.

"Thank you, Sanemi." The master replied. "If I may, master. Before we start the Hashira Meeting, would you mind enlightening us about this Swordsman, Kamado Tanjiro travelling with a demon?" Sanemi asked the Master, calmly.

"Right, I apologise for surprising you all. About Tanjiro and Nezuko, I'd sanctioned their situation. And I'd also like you all to accept it." The master said, surprising everyone.

"Ah! Even thought it's what you request, Master, I cannot consent." Gyomei said, praying. "I, too, must firmly oppose! A demon slayer travelling with a demon is unacceptable!" Uzui spoke up — sparkling?

"I shall do whatever it is you wish, Master." Mitsuri said and Sasuke stared at the pink hair and green eyes of the girl. 'Sakura.'

"I'm fine either way... since I'm going to forget anyway." Muichiro said blankly.

Shinobu and Giyuu were quiet.

"I won't trust them, I won't trust them. In the first place, I loathe demons." Obanai said in the tree, being creepy as usual.

"Although I respect you with all my heart, that's an incomprehensible notion, Master! I oppose with everything I've got!"Rengoku said enthusiastically — with a grin still upon his face. It reminded Sasuke of Naruto.

"The Demon Slayer Corps' mission is to annihilate demons. I request that you punish Kamado, Tomioka and Uchiha." Sanemi barely held back a growl as he spoke.

"Then, the letter..." the Master said, looking at one of his kids. "Hai." She said, opening the letter. "This letter arrived from a former Hashira, Urokodaki Sakonji." She said, making Sasuke perk up at the name.

"I shall read you an abridged version. 'Please allow Tanjiro to be accompanied by his sister, a demon. Because of her resilient spiritual strength, Nezuko has retained her human reason. Even in a starved state, she refused to eat people, and this has held true more than two years later."

Sasuke could practically hear Urokodaki speaking over the little girls words. Sasuke knew about this letter, he was there when Urokodaki wrote it. It was the night Tanjiro and him got back from final selection. He knew what was coming up next.

"Although the situation sounds outlandish, it is the indisputable truth. Should Nezuko ever attack a human, Kamado Tanjiro, as well as.. Urokodaki Sakonji, Tomioka Giyuu and Uchiha Sasuke will atone by slicing open our stomachs." She continued and Sasuke didn't look at Tanjiro, knowing the boy was staring at him like an emotional wreck which Sasuke didn't need right now.
