Demon slayer x male reader

Final selection

One day before final selection
Afternoon

(Y/n) was standing just in front of front door of Tengen's mansion, in the doorway of the household was tengen with his wives behind him

(Y/n) put the two regular katana's tengen had given him during training on his back

The mood was somber and the air was thick

Tengen:over these past 3 years you've grown from a boy into a flashy young man. I hardly recognize you.

Suma:you-you'd better come back!

She looked like she was about to cry

Makio:don't cry you idiot! No demons gonna stand a chance against him!

Hinatsuru smiled

Hinatsuru:please be careful. And I know you'll do well.

(Y/n) flinched

(Y/n):*big sis Hinatsuru is a heavenly as ever*

(Y/n) smiled like an innocent child

(Y/n):I will!

Tengen placed his hand on his tsuguko's shoulder

Tengen:Make sure you outperform everyone else, wouldn't be very flashy to be second best.

(Y/n):ri-right!

Tengen smirked as he used his freehand to grab one of the sets of gemstones hanging from his headband

Tengen:I want you to hold on to this, till you get back.

He plucked it from his headband and held it out

Tengen:you'll need something to give you some flare.

(Y/n):I can...have this?

Tengen nodded

Tengen:there's many things that separate hashira from other demon slayers.

(Y/n):but...what does this have to do with it?

Tengen:Presentation!

(Y/n) slowly took it and pierced his ear with it

He looked up at his mentor who liked how the new earring made him look

Tengen:yes that works quite nicely, you'll be the most flamboyant participant at the trials by far!

(Y/n) nodded with a smile

(Y/n):right!

He stepped back

(Y/n):I'll be off, I'll see you when I get back!

He waved and took off running down the pathway at incredible speeds

Suma burst into tears and both Makio and Hinatsuru looked upset to see him go

Tengen:*don't turn into someone else who's died because of me.*

Tengen hesitantly turned back into the house
