There is nothing to say about promoting Hori Gaku to the position of Pillar, it is very reasonable.
But the name of this Pillar, Hori Gaku, is very scary! Yoya actually intends to call Hori Gaku the Pillar of Heaven!
When hearing the word Pillar of Heaven, Hori Gaku's heart trembled, there was no way, the weight of these two words was really a bit heavy.
What does Pillar of Heaven mean? Could it mean the white jade pillar that supports the sky and the purple gold beam that supports the sea! ?
It is too heavy, Hori Gaku feels that he can't bear it, at least he, a newcomer to the Demon Slayer Corps, can't bear it.
When the other eight pillars heard that Yoya named Hori Gaku as the Pillar of Heaven, they were all shocked!
In addition to being shocked, they were still a little dissatisfied.
Pillar of Heaven, Pillar of Heaven, doesn't this vaguely suppress them, the pillars? Such a newcomer, on what basis? Is it because he killed the Upper Five?
Well, killing the Upper Five is indeed a bit amazing, but it is not enough to promote him to the Pillar of Heaven all at once, this title is a bit too much.
Hori Gaku also declined very seriously:
"Lord, this is too much! The title of Tianzhu is really too much. Lord, please take back your order. I dare not accept it."
Yaoya looked at Horitake and said encouragingly:
"Horitake, you can handle it"
"When the Lord……"
Before Horitake could finish, Yaoya interrupted Horitake's refusal:
"Horitake, the names of the pillars are all based on the breathing method they use.
For example, Obanai uses the Snake Breathing that he created himself, so he is the Snake Pillar.
Another example is Muichiro, he uses the Mist Breathing that he created himself, so he is the Mist Pillar.
And Horitake, based on the Thunder Breathing, you have independently developed a stronger Thunder Breathing that is comparable to the real thunder in nature, so it is normal that you are the Heavenly Pillar."
Horitake smiled bitterly, and for a moment he didn't know whether to laugh or cry because of Yoya's reasonable twisted logic.
Fuzugawa Miya, who was the most unconvinced, secretly muttered at this time:
"Tsk, I think it’s better to call it a telegraph pole (thunder pole)!"
Yaoya also noticed the discomfort in the hearts of the eight pillars.
Think about it, they are seniors after all, and they are also the old pillars with a long reputation in the Demon Slayer Corps. Suddenly, a newcomer became the pillar of heaven and suppressed them. How could they feel good?
So, Yaoya began to comfort them and explained to the other eight pillars:
"I know you are feeling uncomfortable, thinking that Horitake has suppressed you as soon as he arrived. As seniors, you can't save face, right?
Haha, don't hide it, can't I see what my subordinates are thinking?
In a sense, my sudden promotion of Horitake this time was indeed a bit unfair, I admit this, and I apologize to you all."
As he said that, Yaoya bowed to the pillars.
Yaoya's sudden admission of fault and apology made the pillars flustered, and the discomfort just now was immediately squeezed out by this panic.
The pillars scattered and quickly avoided the direction where Yaoya bowed. They were in a panic and talked a lot, not daring to accept Yaoya's courtesy:
"You can’t…you can’t do that! My Lord! You can’t do that!"
"My Lord, there is no need to go to this extent. We dare not accept it."
"Yes, yes! My lord, please stand up quickly!"
Even though he was avoided by the other pillars, Yaoya still bent down firmly and bowed all the way.
The other pillars were stunned by Yaoya's greeting. Even after Yaoya stood up, they were still uneasy.
Horitake was beside him, holding his forehead in distress.
In order to calm everyone's resentment towards me, Yaoya actually bowed and apologized in person. This... My lord, is it necessary for you to do this? Isn't it just that there is hope to help you solve the curse? Are you willing to do so much for me?
After the bow and apology, everyone can finally talk relatively calmly. Yaoya also said to the other pillars earnestly:
"It is normal for everyone to be dissatisfied and resentful about the title of Horitake the Heavenly Pillar. I promoted Horitake to the Heavenly Pillar for special considerations.
First of all, Horitake has made outstanding contributions.
Since joining the Demon Slayer Corps, Horitake has not only killed Tamakura of the Upper Five, but also killed dozens of evil spirits in just a few months. Such contributions cannot be erased by anyone.
At least this point, everyone agrees, right?"
The eight pillars nodded one after another, indicating that they had no objection.
Among them, Fuzugawa Saneya also nodded:
"Although I am somewhat reluctant, this contribution is indeed real."
Yaoya continued:
"Another important point is that Hori Gaku is extremely strong. After killing Yu Hu by himself, he was not injured at all. Didn't you expect this?"
As he said this, the pillars looked at Hori Gaku.
Hori Gaku spread his arms and patted his chest to indicate that he was not injured. At the same time, he said:
"I stayed at the Butterfly House last night, not to treat my wounds, but simply to stay overnight."
The eyes of the pillars looking at Horitake were different again.
He was able to kill the Upper Rank Five without any injuries. This guy is not simple.
When the pillars like them encounter the relatively weaker Lower Ranks, they need to be cautious. If they are not careful, they will get hurt. They didn't expect Horitake to kill the Upper Ranks alone without any injuries!?
At the critical moment, Yoya added:
"I can tell you responsibly that among the eight of you, except for Xingming who can fight against Horitake, none of you can be a match for Horitake!"
The pillars all looked at Beimingyu Xingming. Beimingyu
Xing put his hands together and said:
"The last time I met Hori Gaku was when he had just passed the final selection. At that time, Hori Gaku could kill a demon with the strength of a lower-rank demon alone, and his strength was not inferior to all of you.
But now, I can't sense the depth of Hori Gaku. If I really fight with Hori Gaku, I don't have much confidence."
The pillars are very clear about Gyomei's strength, and everyone recognizes that he is the strongest.
And Gyomei now admits that he is not sure, doesn't it mean... Hori Gaku is stronger than Gyomei!?
This newcomer has just become the pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, and he is the strongest pillar!?
When the pillars were shocked by this fact, Yaoya added fuel to the fire:
"Don't forget, Hori Gaku has just joined the Demon Slayer Corps for a few months."
The pillars suddenly realized.
Yes, it has only been a few months, and Hori Gaku has grown to the strongest level. If he continues to grow at this speed...hiss! I dare not think about it!
Now he dares to kill Jade Pot, will he dare to chase Muzan and kill him next time!?
Chasing Muzan and killing him is an exaggeration, but it can also show the shock in the hearts of the pillars.
With Yoya's explanation, the pillars also understood Hori Gaku's merits and details. They felt that they were not as good as Hori Gaku, and they were not so resentful about him becoming a pillar.
After explaining the objective facts, Yoya explained to the pillars from the overall situation:
"Everyone, Horitake killed Yuhu, breaking the hundreds of years of immortality of the upper strings, and brought new dawn to our Demon Slayer Corps's business of exterminating demons.
I have a hunch that the war and disputes between humans and demons may end in our generation.
What does this mean? It means that everyone here may participate in the final war!
The appearance of Horitake has further strengthened my idea.
This era needs heroes, role models, and outstanding people to pursue.
Everyone has seen Horitake's strength and Horitake's progress.
He is qualified to participate in the final decisive battle and face the strongest enemy. Do you have the confidence to do so?
I'm afraid not now.
So, do you have the confidence to catch up with Horitake? Can you catch up with Horitake? Can you fight side by side with him and face the most terrible and cruel enemy?"
Yaoya asked back, stimulating the pillars to become excited.
Horitake was a little dumbfounded.
He finally understood now that he, the pillar of heaven, was the best way for Yaoya to provoke him!
