We had returned to HQ after killing the 1st lower moon and the 3rd upper moon during our mission.
Rengoku had put his cape on me to protect me from the sun's rays.
-at HQ, meeting of the pillars-
When we arrived, Rengoku and I, the pillars looked at us strangely.
Shinazugawa: Why is that damn demon here?! And why is he wearing Rengoku's cape?!
Kagaya: Calm down Shinazugawa.
Rengoku: Tanjiro comes because this meeting is dedicated to the results of the mission he carried out with me.
Iguro: So what?
Kagaya: Would you mind reporting, Rengoku?
Rengoku: Yes! We faced the lower 1st moon and the upper 3rd moon! 🔥🔥
Shinazugawa: If you're here, you killed them.
Rangoku: Exactly! But it wasn't me who killed them!
Iguro: So it was... Him... *points to Tanjiro* Who killed them.
Kagaya: Is that real Tsugikuni?
Tanjiro: Yes, I eliminated them.
Kagaya: hmm... So this mission is a great success. Good job both.
Tanjiro and Rengoku: Thank you!
Kanroji: hmm~
Kochou: What has Kanroji?
Kanroji: Oh nothing~ *smiles*
Iguro: (Kanroji is so cute)
Tomioka: Tanjiro...
Tanjiro: What is that?
Tomioka: You are stronger than the 3rd upper moon, it's good to know that you are on our side...
I smile at Tomioka to thank him for the compliment. Tokito looked at me thoughtfully.
Tanjiro: Why are you looking at me like that, Tokito?
Tokito: For nothing, for nothing. *looks at the clouds*
Tanjiro: Strange...
Shinazugawa: He's like that all the time.
Tanjiro: ....
Kagaya: Let's get back to our meeting. Tsugikuni Tanjiro succeeded in the mission to prove that he is on our side. From now on, he will only be eliminated if he attacks us or eats someone.
I smiled, still draped in the Flame Pillar's cloak, glad of the news. Everyone was equally happy except Shinazugawa and Iguro.
Kanroji: (Kyaaaaa~)
Iguro: I still won't trust him, a demon is still a demon.
Shinazugawa: All the same.
Himejima: *cries* We have to do what master says even if we don't like it.
Kochou: If the master says, we must do.
Shinazugawa: Tsk... It's okay, I get it.
Iguro: Tsk... For me too, it's understood.
Tomioka: Everything closed now? The Tsugikuni mission report has been made, there are no lower moons left and there are only 4 upper moons left. We're done, I think.
Kagaya: You are right Tomioka. The meeting is closed. You can leave.
All the pillars left except Kochou and Rengoku who came with me to the butterfly domain.
