Nine Pillars Meeting

This morning, at the Pillars Meeting, the Pillars knelt on the tatami mats, but Lord Amane had not yet arrived.
Wind Pillar Sanemi Shinazugawa gritted his teeth and said, "So it's that easy to open the markings."
Yoshiyuki Tomioka, standing beside him, said casually, "You think opening the marks is so easy? You're really simple-minded."
Wind Pillar Sanemi Shinazugawa turned to look at Water Pillar Giyu Tomioka: "What did you say...?"
Water Pillar Giyu Tomioka: "It's nothing." Mitsuri Kanroji, the Love Pillar , couldn't stand it anymore and, ignoring the bandage on her forehead, quickly spoke up to persuade him: "Hey? Don't be like that! We're all comrades! "Shinobu Kocho, the Insect Pillar, frowned slightly, her face serious: "Mr. Tomioka, you're always so aloof. This is a Pillars meeting. "Obanai Iguro, the Serpent Pillar, said: "Tomioka, this is an important meeting. Are you sure you want to save face for everyone? "Tomioka stood up, took his sword, and walked to the door, preparing to leave. "I'm different from you. "Sanemi Shinazugawa, the Wind Pillar: "What? Are you superior? "He reached out to grab Tomioka's shoulder, but at that moment, Gyomei Himejima, the Stone Pillar, clasped his hands together, the prayer beads in his hands making a soft sound, his haori fluttering, and his massive figure knelt before him. *

• Water Pillar Giyu Tomioka, Wind Pillar Sanemi Shinazugawa, Serpent Pillar Obanai Iguro, Love Pillar Mitsuri Kanroji, Insect Pillar Shinobu Kocho, Mist Pillar Muichiro Tokito, Sound Pillar Tengen Uzui, and Flame Pillar Kyojuro Rengoku felt an overwhelming surge of power . "Enough. Tomioka, go if you want. "His blind, white eyes stared straight ahead, his voice low and deep. *

• Water Pillar Giyu Tomioka slowly walked away. *

• And you, the newly promoted Pillar, have a good time, Pillar-sama.
