The Slime and the Hashira

"Are we done here?"

Four words, from the master of the demon slayer corps.

Four words that held back the hashiras from thinking of doing something else to this guest that appeared out of thin air.

Seriously, where on earth did he even come from? He managed to appear right at the very heart of the hidden headquarters so that says much about him.

Rimuru turned to them putting the hashiras on edge. How could they let their guard down? His gaze alone is both commanding and manipulative if they were honest.

A stark contrast to the carefree and gentle smile he first gifted them even with a sword pressed on his neck.

To their surprise however, instead of what they were expecting, Rimuru bows to Kagaya, a hand placed vertically on his chest as a sign of submission.

That is what he is. A humble emperor that could change attitude in seconds if provoked badly.

"I apologize for my actions, Master Kagaya. My actions for sure made everyone wary of me but I just couldn't bear the thought of Nezuko going through that kind of prejudice. Not because we are demons would mean we are to be judged the same way quickly."

Kagaya's lips stretched into an understanding smile.

"No need to worry. I totally understand why you did it. Perhaps Sanemi indeed needed that punch, it was just put on hold. Hope that made you feel a lot better."

Rimuru straightened, his eyes locking on the strange diease that slowly consumes the master with each passing day. This is something he had never seen before but it doesn't take a genius to know, it stemmed from the negative feelings of people.

"Yes. A lot better."

"Raphael, do a full analysis on this illness and fast."

"Yes. Right away, master."

"Would you finally tell us on how you are connected with the Kamado siblings? Earlier, you claimed that my missing children are safe and sound," Kagaya's voice snapped the emperor of his trance.

Right.

He has to start from the beginning then. If he were to convince them of his claim, then he needed to show them evidences. And a solid one at that.

"Believe it or not, that is who I am. I am from another world, a leader of a nation of monsters and married to your Sun Breather Hashira, Yaerin Tokito," Rimuru concluded his report and explanation.

It wouldn't be surprising if they wouldn't ever believe him, despite the evidences he had presented. Using light magic, he showed Laliah and the others happily residing in Tempest.

Commoners turned royalties, having assistants serving them left and right, everything at their beck and call. Nonetheless, that didnt deter them from getting even more stronger, their goals unchanged.

To eradicate all flesh eating demons once and for all.

The screen showed Tanjiro, Inosuke and Zenitsu at the peak of their training with Hakurou. Later, it shifted to Laliah who was busy doing her surgery assisted by Nezuko.

For a long while, the hashiras just starred at the screen. Meanwhile, Kagaya's biological children explained what's going on to their blind father.

"I don't expect you guys to trust me just yet-"
