𝐂𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐀𝐋 ll セレスティアル

十三

(PS this is the last chapter I'll cross post for tonight since it's currently 12 am)
Tanjiro and (name) stared at the ill man, the two sharing different thoughts. Tanjiro observed the cursed man, and (name) deadpanned that the guy thought they were getting along. 

Did he literally not hear her wrecking the crap out of no eyebrows?

A hint of movement caught her eye and she smacked away an arm harshly that was going to grab her. Tanjiro gasped as he was forced down by Sanemi, while (name) glared daggers at the snake man.

“Don’t touch me, you fiend.” she told the shorter man.

Obanai glared back, before he nudged his head behind her. (Name) turned and saw everyone was bowing down with respect, and she caught Tanjiro’s pleading eyes. With a sigh, she plopped to the ground and waited for what would come next. Her head was hurting anyways. 

“I am pleased to see you are in good health, Oyakata-sama.” Sanemi greeted the man, “I pray for your continuous good fortune.”

“Thank you, Sanemi.” Oyakata-sama smiled.

“The fuck?” (name) thought, “old man has manners?”

“Before we begin the Hashira meeting, would you mind enlightening us about these Corps members, Tanjiro Kamado and (name) (l/n), travelling with demons?” Sanemi continued.

“Right. I apologize for not informing you all.” Oyakata-sama beamed, “about Tanjiro and Nezuko… I’d sanctioned their situation. With (name) and Upper Moon 1, I have also taken them into account and I would like you to accept all of them.”

“Ah… even if that’s what you request, Oyakata-sama… I cannot accept.” Gyomei cried again, and (name) wondered how much water he even had.

“I must oppose it as well! A demon slayer travelling with a demon is unacceptable! Especially if they're a member of the Twelve Kizuki!” Uzui opposed flamboyantly. 

“I shall do whatever you wish, Oyakata-sama!” Mitsuri smiled.

“I’m fine either way… since I’ll forget it.” Muichiro mumbled and (name) glanced at him. 

There was something about him that was familiar… 

“I won’t trust them, I won’t trust them.” Obanai pointed at Tanjiro, but his eyes glared at (name), “I loathe demons in the first place.”

“Although I respect you with all my heart, Oyakata-sama! I cannot accept this request!” Rengoku beamed, “I oppose with everything I got!”

“The Demon Slayer Corps’ mission is to annihilate demons. I request that you punish Kamado, (l/n), and Tomioka.” Sanemi growled.

(Name) fought hard to stay awake. She didn’t mind too much about them not accepting her and Kokushibo. If the worst scenario comes to place, she’ll just steal a katana and slaughter them all. After that, she’ll take Tanjiro and Nezuko and escape and they’ll go their separate ways.

A shuffle of a paper was heard and (name) saw one of the children holding a letter.

“This letter arrived from a former Hashira, Sakonji Urokodaki.”

“Please allow Tanjiro to be accompanied by his sister, a demon. Because of her resilient strength, Nezuko has retained her human emotions. Even in a starved state, Nezuko refused to eat people, and she has held on for two years. It is the truth. Should Nezuko ever attack a human, Tanjiro Kamado as well as… Sakonji Urokodaki and Giyuu Tomioka will atone by slicing open their stomachs.”

“So in short… me and Kokushibo are fucked.” (name) blinked once she heard Tanjiro had supporters and she didn’t. 

Do Zenitsu and Inosuke count as supporters?
