Of course, this rule didn't apply to the Hashira. Their missions were directly assigned by the Master, eliminating the possibility of refusal.
Himejima Gyomei continued Shinobu's point, "Those who joined because a loved one was killed, and those whose families have been demon hunters for generations, are the core of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Those who aren't either of those, expecting them to sacrifice their lives for the Corps, isn't feasible."
Rengoku Kyojuro, the Flame Hashira, instead of commenting on Kagaya's proposal, praised Ryuji. "Speaking of which, that boy named Ryuji, so soon after joining, encountered and killed Lower Moons.
Perhaps he possesses some sort of power that attracts Lower Moons. Even we rarely encounter them. I'm envious!"
Tomioka Giyu, Kanroji Mitsuri, Tokito Muichiro, and Iguro Obanai remained silent.
After a moment of silence, Kagaya spoke, "You're right. The Lower Moons' activity in Spider Mountain suggests Muzan Kibutsuji might not be there.
The same goes for Asakusa. Whenever he wants to conceal something, Muzan will have his demons create a disturbance to cleverly divert our attention."
"Perhaps we can use Ryuji and Tanjiro's presence to lure Muzan Kibutsuji out."
"However, demons are also rapidly consuming humans to grow stronger. All we can do is gather the strength of everyone here to completely crush them."
"I believe the Hashira gathered here are the most elite group since the initial Breath of the First Style swordsmen of the Sengoku period!"
"Gyomei Himejima!"
"Tengen Uzui!"
"Kyojuro Rengoku!"
"Mitsuri Kanroji!"
"Sanemi Shinazugawa!"
"Muichiro Tokito!"
"Obanai Iguro!"
"Shinobu Kocho!"
"Giyu Tomioka!"
"My children, I look forward to your outstanding performance."
After the Hashira meeting, Shinobu Kocho immediately sought out Ryuji. He was already well-rested, clean, and changed, lying on his bed in the private ward, staring at the ceiling.
Shinobu had also asked Aoi Kanzaki to clean Nezuko.
Aoi, upon seeing Nezuko, immediately noticed she was a demon. After Ryuji's explanation, she was reassured.
Even without mentioning it, someone else would inevitably discover Nezuko. Clearly, Ryuji and Nezuko were granted special privileges.
Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke were all asleep. The ward was quiet except for Zenitsu's snoring.
Ryuji noticed Shinobu's arrival and turned his gaze towards her.
Shinobu quickly reached Ryuji's bedside. "You're not a patient; why are you in the ward? Come with me; I've prepared accommodations for you!"
She took Ryuji's hand and helped him sit up.
