The following is my opinion, and if it offends you, I apologize. I am in no way, shape, or form trying to get you or humiliate you, I just want my opinion heard ( and what better place to do it? )
Personally, my opinion on having a NEW slayer would be.. well.. Pointless. The entire reason someone ( me for example~ ) wants a slayer position is because there would be only two people on the site who's magic of that type you couldn't eat like it's nothing. Yes, it would be badass for someone to be a bone slayer. The name is even cool. But, as Lyserg had stated earlier, if we were to "overuse it, overstretch it, overextend its necessary boundaries", it would become pointless.
Overall, I would just be happy with the slayer positions we have now. Yes, it is true that storm doesn't NEED to be replaced, but, as I said, the slayer slots are limited as is. Why not add something unique and cool rather than trashing a slot that has worked well? As stated by other people ( not sure who exactly ) but some of the ideas of Oil and Paper seemed a bit... ridiculous. In my personal opinion, if some guy ran up to me shouting "Alright you Venom Demon Slayer!! I'm the Paper God Slayer and I'll be the god of this world!! [Insert more Light Yagami quotes]" I would not take it seriously. The D-Rank spells would consist of paper cuts. That's nowhere as cool as some of the other ones.
Taking a look at the suggestion of Void Slayer ( or Arcane Slayer, whatever floats your boat ), I think that would mean two things. It would mean the end of choosing magics with no elements to avoid slayers being able to get'cha ( you know who you are ) and it would also stop Slayers being categorized under set elemental regions. I just think the idea sounds awesome, but I believe the user should be limited to a focus ( Example -- Hell Demon Slayer ), so they aren't free to do magics that relate nothing to your ordinary slayer magic.
There is a slight problem with the idea of a Void Slayer though. Where can they eat their element? It's not like you can literally buy magic in a bottle.. You'd have to take someone's magic item and stuff it in your face... Aside from the positives up there, this would be the negatives. This could become.. very broken. All it would take is a power-hungry guy who got his hands on the latest slayer, and boom, it's ruined for everyone.
So yeah, this is my say on the entire matter ( or.. whatever I was able to say without sounding like a jerk ). So yeah.. I'm bad at exits so i'm just going to stop talking.
