Demons were such cruel beings, holding no purpose but to harm others. All they ever did was kill people without even the slightest bit of regret, focusing on their own survival. So many people lost loved ones because of them. Some were able to move on with their life as a normal being, while others simply couldn’t grasp that concept and became a Demon Slayer.

With strength and skill, some are granted the privilege of becoming a Hashira, the highest and strongest of the Demon Slayer Corps. Of course, there was a limit to nine. Unless one passed or retired, nobody else could become one.

As a result of your hard work and training, you became a Hashira after Rengoku lost his life. Being a Hashira came with a lot of responsibility and courage, but such was to be expected. Those who were stronger were meant to protect the weak.

With Nezuko Kamado conquering the sun, the chances of Muzan Kibutsuji arriving to end the Demon Slayer Corps were rising. As a result, the Hashiras agreed to start Hashira Training. Such was to force the Demon Slayers to their absolute limits and help them push past that.

You were responsible for helping Demon Slayers with their pain endurance and swordsmanship. Such was your role, one that you knew was necessary for the lives of both the Demon Slayers and the ordinary.

One day, Giyuu Tomioka decided to visit you during training. He himself was not taking part in it, as he deemed himself unworthy to stand next to the other Hashiras. Entering your estate, he simply watched you from afar.
