OBS, a group of devils living inconspicuously alongside humans, and Nightmare, a group of exorcists that blend in among humans, had previously worked independently, but as low-level devil activity grew around the city, they established contact.

The aesthetics of demons, the pride of exorcists and a "certain secret" revealed because of that conflict. What will their conclusion be after everything is revealed? ----

Scene 1

B-project Half

*Sound of door opening*

TOMOHISA: Welcome to OBS

CLIENT: Uhm, I have an appointment for 2:00 in the afternoon…

TOMOHISA: We have been waiting for you. Please follow me.

CLIENT: This looks like a lounge in a high-end hotel!

TOMOHISA: *chuckles* Thank you for the compliment

CLIENT: By the way… Can you guys really do that thing for me?

TOMOHISA: Of course. However, before we get into the details, let me introduce to you our brilliant team members.

CLIENT: *gasps* Since when did you guys arrive here?!

RYUJI: (unamused) Heh… are you the client this time?

HARUHI: You seem like a good person at first glance but you came to our office. Are you actually a bad person, then?

YUDUKI: Well, I’m not surprised anymore. That’s just how they are. They hide it so well on the surface but on the inside, they are full of jealousy and hatred.

RYUJI: That’s right! That’s how humans are.

AKANE: What kind of commission is it this time? I’m getting totes excited! No, actually I’m getting so hyped!

MIROKU: Akane. Please hold yourself back in front of the client.

AKANE: Hehehe! Sorry! It was unintentional!

TOMOHISA: Well then, let’s get started. What is your commission this time?

CLIENT: I want… I want you to help me with revenge!

TOMOHISA: So it is revenge, huh?

CLIENT: Uhm… Who are you guys? The way you showed up just now… and then, your behavior… How should I put it…

TOMOHISA: What do you mean?

CLIENT: … You don’t seem like humans at all!

RYUJI: That’s not important at all.

MIROKU: As long as it is our job, we will complete any commission.

YUDUKI: Of course, that includes eliminating the target.

HARUHI: Or making the other person experience torture worse than death…. That’s super easy!

CLIENT: Ahh!

AKANE: Oh! Of course, there has to be a corresponding compensation for it!

TOMOHISA: Well then, please tell us. How do you want us to exact your revenge?

*Footsteps running*

GOSHI: Ah! There it is! The cat with a toupee-like pattern on a white background!

HIKARU: Roger that! Uwah! Ah, it ran away! Tatsu, it ran away!

TATSUHIRO: I got it! … Damn it! It ran so fast. Yuta! I’ll leave it to ya!

YUTA: Okay! Leave it to me! Over here, kitty~ Come over here~

Cat: *meows aggressively*

YUTA: Ahhh! Ouch, ouch, ouch! *sighs* I am sorry for scaring you! But, but! This is our job!

GOSHI: Hold it securely!! Do you really want to have instant cup noodles for dinner tonight?!

TATSUHIRO: I’ve eaten it twice in a row now. I want to get paid and eat a good meal.

HIKARU: Meat! Meat! Meat!

YUTA: Ahhh, dang it! I don’t know where it went!

GOSHI: Ahh, goddammit! Got no progress at all! Let’s just go back to the office first.

HIKARU: *sighs in exasperation* If we say that we let the cat get away, will Leader get angry again?

TATSUHIRO: Being angry is still fine. What’s more terrifying is when he smiles while saying “Thank you for your hard work” to us.

GOSHI: I mean, for how long will this kind of mission last? This job is becoming like a chore.

YUTA: Gochin! You shouldn’t be saying those things! We are a multitask kind of shop. We have to do everything.

GOSHI: That’s just on the surface. If we continue like this, then won’t we really become a jack of all trades and master of none?

—-

*Footsteps approaching, door opening*

HIKARU: We’re back! We just arrived!

KENTO: Welcome back.

MIKADO: Everyone, thank you for your hard work in finding the cat.

YUTA: Uhm… About that… Actually…. We still haven't found the cat.

Cat: Meow!

GOSHI: Huh?!

Everyone: Ehhh???

HIKARU: This pattern and that arrogant look… It’s the kitty that we are looking for!

YUTA: Why?! What is it doing here??

MOMOTARO: It came towards me when I was walking in front of the office.

TATSUHIRO: As expected of Momotaro.

MIKADO: Momotasu is popular with the animals, right!?

GOSHI: What the hell is that

YUTA: We were searching for it so hard… What’s even the purpose of that now?

KENTO: It was just a waste of effort. Thank you for your help though.

GOSHI: Tsk! Really can’t do this no longer. I mean can’t I take on some more serious work?

KENTO: Can you please stop blaming the mission for your lack of results?

GOSHI: Huuuhh?!

YUTA: Ok! Gochin and Kenken too, stop right there!

MIKADO: Our office would have closed down long ago if it wasn’t for Kenti’s professionalism. Now, we should be thankful for any job.

HIKARU: But you know, if we keep going on like this, we’re really going to become just a group of handymen! We are exorcists after all!

KAZUNA: It doesn’t have to be anything—

YUTA: Waaah!

KAZUNA: —But it can be something a part of your daily life, you know.

YUTA: You scared me!

TATSUHIRO: Leader, since when did you—

KAZUNA: We have to be vigilant of our surroundings at all times. After all, no one knows when the devil will appear. For that reason, it is critical that we take on trivial tasks and incorporate them into our regular routines in order to notice any subtle changes.

KENTO: What he said is right.

HIKARU: Oka~y.

KAZUNA: Thank you for your hard work in finding the cat. After speaking with the client, I was informed that they will be picking it up shortly.

TATSUHIRO: Really? That’s great.

YUTA: Yippiee! Finally, I have something to eat!

HIKARU: Yayyy! Meat, meat!

KAZUNA: Also, I have something I want to say before we eat. Actually, I received a notice from the church.

MIKADO: *shrieks* From the church, you say?

GOSHI: What is it? Is there a problem?

KAZUNA: Mhmm, it seems like there’s a lot of devil-related incidents lately.

MOMOTARO: Hmm, certainly. It feels like there is an evil spirit permeating the whole city.

TATSUHIRO: But I think most of them are merely low-level devils that are not worthy of being mentioned.

KAZUNA: According to the investigation by the church, it appears that someone is attempting to unleash the long-sealed devilic power.

YUTA: Ehh?

MIKADO: So this devil… is it the lord of flies, Beelzebub? Or is it Mammon? No, wait! Ain’t no way, but is it the LUCIFER?!

TATSUHIRO: As expected of the walking devil expert.

MOMOTARO: When it comes to the knowledge of devils, nobody can compare to Mika.

KAZUNA: The church gave us a mission.

KENTO: As you go about your everyday business, you must also look into the movements of the devils. Goshi, ain’t that a relief? As you had hoped, you were finally given a respectable mission.

GOSHI: You— Are you looking for a fight?!

KAZUNA: Goshi. Calm down.

GOSHI: Guh…

KAZUNA: That being said, I hope that everyone will work together. The main force in charge of the devil investigation will be—-

YUTA: Yes, yes!! I want to be part of the main force please!

HIKARU: Ehh? Yuta, that’s unusual for you. Don't you generally detest embarking on such frightful missions?

KAZUNA: I apologise, but this time I will take a few elites…. That’s right. People like Goshi, Momo, and myself who have real battle experience. All three of us.

YUTA: But I want to help too!

MIKADO: What’s the matter? You are very eager about this. It’s not like you, Yutaso.

TATSUHIRO: Are you really so keen to track down the devil?

YUTA: That is…

GOSHI: It’s alright, ain’t it? … I’ll keep an eye on him.

YUTA: Gochin…

GOSHI: Don’t hold us back, got it?

YUTA: Yep! Thanks! *hugs*

GOSHI: Hnngh! Stop glomping onto me all the time!!! Ugh… Ok this should be fine.

KAZUNA: …Hmm. If Goshi said so, then let’s bring him with us. Momo, are you okay with this request?

MOMOTARO: Just leave it to me.

MIKADO: The four of you, please be careful.

HIKARU: Don’t act too stubbornly!

KENTO: Please remember to notify me if you come across any sexy devils.

TATSUHIRO: Kento, you…

KAZUNA: I hope others will keep this in mind. As exorcists, we must deny the devils their existence. We have to annihilate them.

Scene 2

HARUHI: Let’s take a drink!

AKANE: A toast!

TOMOHISA: Thank you everyone for your hard work.

RYUJI: …This is delicious~

YUDUKI: After work, having a drink is truly a unique experience. It cannot be compared.

MIROKU: When I drink it on an empty stomach, I feel particularly joyful.

RYUJI: This is our indispensable secret to staying youthful.

AKANE: Really? I assumed you were around my age when we first met, Ryuji. It surprised me that you are a devil who has lived a lot loooonger than I have—

RYUJI: Can we not talk about my age?

AKANE: Sorry, sorry~

HARUHI: However, to be honest, the work this time is super easy~

MIROKU: We did a wonderful job of meeting the client's needs.

YUDUKI: The commission was to get rid of the person the wife was having an affair with, right?

RYUJI: That’s right. Humans are such hopeless creatures, to be honest. They're completely self-centered and only consider themselves.

HARUHI: In conclusion, to be influenced by this so-called love is ultimately unfathomable.

MIROKU: After all, us devils don’t harbor such feelings.

AKANE: Ehh? But I do have some aspirations in mind~ Loving just one person wholeheartedly is romantic, isn't it?

RYUJI: The client must, however, give over half of his life for this love. Since human life is already brief, I find the decision to be somewhat incomprehensible.

YUDUKI: Indeed, and what makes humans think we are all alike? It is clear that we are entirely distinct entities from them.

HARUHI: That’s so true! We’re doing things that humans are incapable of achieving yet they don't suspect anything. Are they feigning ignorance?

RYUJI: How can that be? They wouldn't have come here in the first place if they were that intelligent, after all. They are merely a group of beings struggling with their vile greed and self-interest.

TOMOHISA: Everyone, settle down. Their commission is the reason we are able to live this kind of life. Do not speak of them in that way.

RYUJI: Fine, fine.

TOMOHISA: On the contrary, we ought to be appreciative of their stupidity and inner filth.

YUDUKI: Tomohisa-san’s statement sounds the most ironic….

HARUHI: But, but, that’s what humans are, isn't it? It's because we believe we can mercilessly wipe out humankind!

MIROKU: By the way, Tomohisa-san, you performed flawlessly this time in every regard.

TOMOHISA: Heh…Thank you.

RYUJI: If all devils could kill people as cleanly as Tomo does, that would be fantastic. It’s somewhat annoying that there seem to be an increasing number of troublesome devils lately.

MIROKU: Additionally, there are now more low-level devils than before.

YUDUKI: It can only be regarded as pure aesthetics when they’re erased without leaving any trace, right?

TOMOHISA: We must use greater caution and avoid making the devil's presence too conspicuous.

HARUHI: Could it be a devil from another organization?

TOMOHISA: No.

RYUJI: Could it be related to the incident we have been investigating?

AKANE: What investigation?

HARUHI: Is it about the one from our clan? I really want to meet him soon.

TOMOHISA: *chuckles* There is no rush. But now that we have located his whereabouts, perhaps it is time to pay him a visit.

—

*phone ringing*

HIKARU: Greetings, we do everything from performing pest control to locating people, this is Nightmare. Ehh? Ahh… Okay, I’ll transfer you now… Leader, the church is on the phone.

KAZUNA: Ok, I have transferred it…. Oh, I understand. We will be right there. *hangs up phone*

KENTO: What is it?

KAZUNA: According to the church, they felt a powerful mystical force in an abandoned tunnel on the outskirts of the city. They ordered us to go check it out immediately.

YUTA: An abandoned tunnel? And it's already so late? It must be completely dark! Uwaa! Well, is a ghost present?

KENTO: What are you talking about? If an exorcist is afraid of ghosts, how can he deal with devils?

YUTA: Ughhh… I’ll be fine! It’s okay!

KAZUNA: As previously discussed, Goshi, Yuta, Momo, and I are going to visit the site to have a look. The others will have to wait in the office. Please contact me if you have any concerns.

TATSUHIRO: Got it.

HIKARU: Be careful. Make sure to come back safely.

MIKADO: I'll wait for you while chanting an exorcism spell.

GOSHI: While you chant slowly, I’ll finish them in one go.

HIKARU: Yoo! You are indeed a nonconformist!

MOMOTARO: Do not die too soon.

KAZUNA: I’m looking forward to what you two will do.

YUTA: Then, we will be going!

*door closes*

MIKADO: They are gone. Please may God bless them.

TATSUHIRO: The other three would be fine, but I am a little worried about Yuta.

KENTO: He should be fine if he’s with those members.

MIKADO: You…are probably right.

HIKARU: But, but isn't it better to be optimistic~?

TATSUHIRO: What’s good about it?

HIKARU: Sheesh, Tatsu! Stop saying such weird things!

TATSUHIRO: You too though! Didn't you previously mention that Yuta rarely took on such a terrifying task?

HIKARU: Hehhh~ Did I really say so? But for me, I super totes trust Yutan though!

MIKADO: Kenti and Go-san, you and Yutaso grew up together, right? The three of you are always together, was there anything different?

KENTO: Oh… Nope, I don’t know.

TATSUHIRO: You don’t have to discuss it as long as it doesn't interfere with work. But if it does affect at all, then I want you to talk about it. As your comrade, I want to know.

*sudden whooshing sounds*

TATSUHIRO: Ugh?!

HIKARU: Ehh? What? What is it?

HARUHI: Yah~ Yaahh~ Exorcists, good evening~!

AKANE: We understand that you feeble humans might be too tired at this late hour, but please pardon us; now is the time for activities.

KENTO: This oppressive atmosphere—

TATSUHIRO: Ahh, they seem to have come specifically to visit us.

HIKARU: Ehh?? This lot? Demons?! Why did they come to us here?

YUDUKI: Due to special circumstances, we chose to visit this person this time.

KENTO: Do you know where this is…?

TATSUHIRO: We exorcise devils for a living!

MIROKU: Of course, we know.

HARUHI: There’s someone we reallyyy want to meet!

HIKARU: Who is this person you wanna meet?

KENTO: By that, do you mean—?!

MIKADO: ….Tuuunk!!!!!!

HARUHI: Ehh??? What what what happened?

MIKADO: Up until recently, we have only exorcised low-level devils before… but this is the first time I have encountered a devil with such powerful power!! Ahhh!!!! I feel such deep emotions!!

TATSUHIRO: Mikado, you…

MIKADO: Yeah, if I touch it a little, it feels like—

AKANE: Hey! Ahaha!

MIKADO: Our body structure and skin texture are not much different. The left eye feels cold—

AKANE: Hey, stop it! It feels itchy!

MIKADO: Oh, my apologies! I didn’t expect that the devil’s skin could also be sensitive to stimulation… This is very useful information. Thank you!

MIROKU: Who is this guy?

YUDUKI: A dangerous person?

KENTO: Hahaha… He’s a total devil fan.

HARUHI: It’s not quite normal.

YUDUKI: …. I see. It seems like today is just an unlucky day.

MIROKU: There’s still some devilic aura left, but it doesn’t seem strong enough.

HIKARU: …Gehh?!

TATSUHIRO: How can an exorcist be scared??

HIKARU: But, but!

AKANE: Well, nevermind. We can always take care of these guys anyway.

HARUHI: Yeah, since we’ve already sent our greetings, let’s just go back today, huh.

MIKADO: Are you trying to escape?!

MIROKU: We have no interest in you.

TATSUHIRO: Take that!!

MIROKU: Ugh…!!

AKANE: Miroku!

YUDUKI: What happened just now?

HIKARU: Hehe! That’s Tatsu for you!

MIKADO: Tatsu-dono can fight devils with his bare hands!

KENTO: I’ve had this question for a long time, is he still considered an exorcist?

MIROKU: Although he’s human, he’s pretty powerful.

HARUHI: Miroku, are you okay?

MIROKU: Yeah. Well, this is how I can kill him without any hesitation.

AKANE: Stop!! Have you forgotten what Tomo said? Today is only for scouting. Come on, let's reserve the killing for next time.

YUDUKI: Let’s head back. In any case, we'll see each other again shortly.

MIROKU: I understand. You guys are lucky this time.

KENTO: They disappeared.

MIKADO: What on earth is going on?

TATSUHIRO: What those guys said just now… is really concerning.

HIKARU: I wonder if Yutan and the others are okay…

—

*Dripping sounds of water*

GOSHI: Tsk! Hey, stop sticking so close to me! I can hardly walk properly!

YUTA: But it’s pitch black in this tunnel! If something appeared out of nowhere, it would be terrifying!

KAZUNA: *chuckles* Yuta really is a coward.

MOMOTARO: It’s going to be fine. I don’t sense any ghosts or anything of the sort.

YUTA: Wah? What does that mean? So there’s also something else?!

MOMOTARO: Mhmm.

YUTA: Waah! Wait a minute! Don’t stop now!

MOMOTARO: *chuckles* Since you can shout so loudly, you should be okay.

GOSHI: Hey, what is that?

YUTA: *shrieks* What?? What is that?!

GOSHI: You’re so loud! Stop overreacting. There seems to be something deep in the tunnel.

KAZUNA: Let’s go over and take a look… Ah, these are… humans…

YUTA: —Wah! Everyone is dead. Who… Who would do such a thing?

GOSHI: Look! There’s a magic circle nearby.

MOMOTARO: Is this a devil’s ritual?

YUTA: If that’s the case…

GOSHI: Who is it?!

RYUJI: Haaa… When you meet for the first time, do you use this as your opening statement? Do you humans lack etiquette?

TOMOHISA: Even at this late hour, humans are still about. How unusual.

YUTA: Who are you?!

KAZUNA: Yuta, do not come to them any closer.

YUTA: Huh?

MOMOTARO: Don’t you understand? This place is filled with the essence of the devil.

KAZUNA: Also, they are of a different level from the ones we have expelled before.

YUTA: Eh?? In other words, the one standing in front of us is—

TOMOHISA: Thank you. There is no need for us to introduce ourselves.

GOSHI: Did you perform this ritual?

TOMOHISA: No. That is not our work.

RYUJI: We don’t do such a low-level of execution. If we did the killing, we would do it in a smarter way.

TOMOHISA: It was probably some cheap devils.

KAZUNA: Momo, what do you think?

MOMOTARO: They are correct. The magic circle drawn by this amateur emits a far more weaker magic force than that of the two of them.

TOMOHISA: It is wonderful that the misunderstanding appears to have been cleared up. Also, meeting you by chance was not something I anticipated.

KAZUNA: But you seem awfully happy about it though. What really is it?

RYUJI: Tomo, the members we dispatched there just got back to me. Some mystical power remains, they said.

MOMOTARO: Are the devils in the office too?

YUTA: No, there’s no way!

GOSHI: What did you do to those guys?!

TOMOHISA: Haha, do not get too excited. Today is just the prologue of the story. The real fun is yet to come.

RYUJI: Hey, it’s almost dawn. Should we head back?

TOMOHISA: Yes, Ryuji. You do not like the sun. We should meet at a later time. Next time, let's go somewhere pleasant to enjoy a cup of tea. Farewell.

GOSHI: Do you think you can escape?!

KAZUNA: Goshi!

GOSHI: Ahh!

MOMOTARO: Don’t we need to expel them?

KAZUNA: Momo, you understand, right? Compared to the devils we had encountered, they are not on the same level. We must also be prepared and mindful if we intend to exorcise them.

YUTA: They’re really… very powerful devils.

KAZUNA: Yuta, your face looks pale. Has it affected you?

YUTA: No… I’m fine—

GOSHI: Yuta!!

YUTA: (loses consciousness)

MOMOTARO: He lost consciousness.

KAZUNA: His pulse is fine. Let’s take him back to the office.

Scene 3

YUTA: Ughh……

KENTO: Hey, are you awake?

YUTA: Gochin… Kenken… I—

KENTO: You slept all night.

GOSHI: You were just scared because of the devil and you’re a little anemic, that’s all.

KENTO: Just like Goshi said, there is nothing wrong with your body. Also, I have something to tell you. There were devils in the office.

YUTA: Ehh??? What were they doing there?

GOSHI: Keep your mind off the pointless things. All they want to do is make fun of us humans.

KENTO: It was just a little prank, no need to take it seriously.

YUTA: Thank you. But I… I don’t know why I was so scared… Really… very scared.

GOSHI: ….

KENTO: Tatsuhiro was right to worry. You don't often go to places like that on the spur of the moment.

YUTA: …. Gochin, you saw the bodies of the humans killed by the devils in the tunnel. They were discarded like trash… They… Demons can do such cruel things without any care!

GOSHI: Haa… That’s what the devil does. It does not have anything to do with you.

YUTA: Of course it does!

KENTO: Yuta, it’s okay.

YUTA: Kenken…

KENTO: We grew up together, and we know about your strengths and weaknesses very well.

GOSHI: Yeah, you are a cowardly, weak, and emotional exorcist.

KENTO: But he is also the most gentle exorcist, right. It is impossible for an ordinary person to get along with such a sharp-tongued fool.

GOSHI: Hahh?! Do you have the right to criticize others? You always have conflicts with others all year round!

KENTO: There’s nothing I can do about it. I’m just too charming and also my troublesome physique.

GOSHI: Huhhhhh??

KENTO: You are an expert at handling this type of situation, aren't you, Yuta? If it weren't for you, I would most likely be living in the streets right now. Thanks to you, we are where we are now.

GOSHI: Don’t be too harsh on yourself.

KENTO: Yes yes, you can let Goshi handle the luggage you can’t carry.

GOSHI: Huh?! Why don’t you carry it?!

YUTA: You guys… Thank you… I love you!

GOSHI: Heh… Don’t forget. You are a human being just like us.

YUTA: Yeah.

—

*phone ringing*

HIKARU: Greetings, we do everything from performing pest control to locating people, this is Nightmare. Ah! Gochin?? … Hmm! Really? …. Haha, that’s great! …. Hmm! I’ll tell everyone! *hangs up phone* He said Yutan is awake.

MIKADO: That’s a relief.

MOMOTARO: I can finally rest assured.

TATSUHIRO: It goes without saying, you need to watch someone closely if they exhibit odd behavior.

HIKARU: Uhm, Tatsu. Why were you looking at me when you said that?

TATSUHIRO: When you encountered the devil in the office, you were shaking so much that it was unnatural. Also, I had never seen you thoroughly inspect the tools before.

MIKADO: What do the devils that Leader came across look like?

KAZUNA: They are definitely devils of the highest calibre. They ought to have the ability to steer the group based on their actions and words.

HIKARU: Were they really such strong devils?

MOMOTARO: I fear that both of them are devils that are more powerful than mere weaklings.

MIKADO: Uwaah!! Those are super super rare! I really want to see them in person!

TATSUHIRO: …. You’re still saying such casual things at a time like this.

KAZUNA: I have heard that the devils had visited this place previously. Could you elaborate on that?

MIKADO: Okay, there were four devils in total. They seem to be very interested in our situation.

TATSUHIRO: They said something about the devil’s breath and left quickly.

HIKARU: There can’t be any devils here! I don’t understand what they were talking about!

KAZUNA: I do not think it is necessary to completely believe what they say, but it is better to be vigilant.

*sound of doorbell ringing*

TATSUHIRO: Who is it?

MOMOTARO: Appointments are unlikely to be scheduled at this time.

HIKARU: Ah! It must be the Uber Eats I ordered just now! … Wait a minute, I’ll open the door right away! …. Ah!

TOMOHISA: Hello, exorcist… Hikaru, is it?

HIKARU: How do you know my name? Also, who are you?

TOMOHISA: Well, who am I indeed?

AKANE: There is no way we can tell you that easily!

HARUHI: The devil’s name is a top secret, okay~

HIKARU: What the heck, that ain’t fair! Wait! You’re from yesterday! Everyone, this is bad! The devils from yesterday are back again!

TATSUHIRO: Huh??

MOMOTARO: What… is exactly going on?

RYUJI: Don’t be so nervous. We're here today to have a meaningful conversation with you~

MIKADO: W–What should we do? Leader?

KAZUNA: Since they are officially visiting, we will consider them as our guests. Let them come in.

MIROKU: Kazuna-san is indeed the church’s elite exorcist. Kazuna-san is so calm and composed.

AKANE: Then, excuse our intrusion~

HARUHI: No thank you for tea or coffee. If you want to entertain me, then let’s have some fresh human blood.

HIKARU: Yikes!

HARUHI: Oh, you look so frightened, it’s embarrassing. Besides, your blood doesn’t taste good, so pass!

HIKARU: Eh?! It doesn’t taste good? This is a shock to me!

YUDUKI: Okay, Haru. Stop talking nonsense.

KAZUNA: Since you have come all the way here to visit us, is there anything you want?

TOMOHISA: Yes, I don’t like beating around the bush, so I will get straight to the point. You saw the ritual in the tunnel yesterday, didn’t you?

MOMOTARO: Yeah.

TOMOHISA: We want to find the one responsible for that.

TATSUHIRO: Was it the killing ritual? Wasn’t it your accomplices who did that?

RYUJI: How is that possible? Really, how can human brains be so stupid?

YUDUKI: We wouldn’t kill humans so roughly.

HARUHI: Elegant and clever, that’s our style at OBS!

AKANE: That ritual was not performed by us but by other devils.

MIROKU: It’s really uncomfortable to be lumped together just because they are all devils.

TOMOHISA: We dislike drawing attention to ourselves. In human society, we desire to live in freedom, grace, and without interference. Anyone attempting to disturb this tranquilly will not be allowed to leave.

MOMOTARO: If you find the ones involved, what will you do?

TOMOHISA: Give them the punishment they deserve.

KAZUNA: I understand your request. But, why do you want to cooperate with us?

AKANE: Huh? Of course, it’s because you’re exorcists!

MIKADO: Is it really that simple?

HARUHI: Of course! You are experts in exorcism, so finding devils is a piece of cake for you.

RYUJI: Well, how is it? I do not want to hear any other answers except “Yes”.

KAZUNA: ….

TOMOHISA: Cooperate with us and together we shall vanquish the devils that are disturbing the tranquility of this city.

—

GOSHI: I absolutely object! Collaborating with the devils? Impossible!

KENTO: Goshi, don’t let your emotions get the better of you. Working with them could have some advantages.

MIKADO: They ought to be more knowledgeable about devils than we are.

TATSUHIRO: So we can use their knowledge of devils, right?

MOMOTARO: ��Since I’ve eaten poison, I have to eat the whole plate” …. Right?

KAZUNA: I believe that cooperation is perfectly acceptable. What are everyone's thoughts?

MOMOTARO: Since Leader has said so… Well, I have no objection.

GOSHI: Tsk….

KAZUNA: We are not trying to get along with them. Their affable demeanour does not alter the fact that they are devils. We simply have the same interests in mind this time.

TATSUHIRO: I will follow Leader’s judgment too.

MOMOTARO: If anything goes wrong, I’m prepared to die together with you…

KENTO: Wow, you’re really reliable.

HIKARU: Uhh… I’m just nervous working with the devil. By the way, is YUTAn gonna be okay? Is he not going to faint again?

YUTA: Eh? Me?

TATSUHIRO: Hikaru, you have no right to criticize others. Don't keep trembling and complain about having trouble falling asleep at night.

HIKARU: Uhh…

MIKADO: Though there are undoubtedly still some concerns, this could be a quick way to defeat the devil.

HIKARU: Ugh… Yeah, that’s right.

KAZUNA: Please do not hesitate to ask me if there are any questions.

HIKARU: Leader, thank you!

KENTO: It appears that the conversation achieved some results. So we've chosen to work together temporarily.

Scene 4

*sound of car engine turning off, door of the car closing*

HIKARU: Okay, here we are. Before the sun sets, let's get rid of the pests!

RYUJI: Haa… Having to work while it’s still daylight… This is the worst.

AKANE: That’s true, but it’s already evening and it’s almost dark.

HIKARU: Geh… I’m so scared! Could you please not show up so unexpectedly? It's too frightening to work with companions like you. I have to be on my guard at all times!

KENTO: Not companions, this is just cooperation.

RYUJI: If you wish to give up being human and become a devil, I can assist you at any time~

MIROKU: However, if you do not have enough power, you will be reduced to dust.

MOMOTARO: Don't squander time. We should be able to complete the assignment smoothly now that we have resolved to work together.

AKANE: Haha, so serious. But then again, pest control has nothing to do with exorcism, right? Do you guys do these things on a regular basis?

KENTO: Our commissions are basically odd jobs like pest control, finding pets, or investigating somewhere.

MOMOTARO: Surprisingly, there are frequent indications of devils hidden in such missions.

MIROKU: It is indeed the kind of rusticity that is unique to humans.

KENTO: That pity sounds so harsh, can you please stop saying that?

AKANE: So, what was today’s commission?

KENTO: According to the client, an abandoned warehouse had become a gathering place for vermin, causing her a headache.

HIKARU: By the way, this job was also brought in by Ken-chan?

KENTO: The client is a 26-year-old single female teacher, and she’s really pretty. She seems to have a crush on me… Oh gosh, it’s obviously work, it’s really a headache.

MIROKU: Although she’s human, she looks like a succubus.

AKANE: Hahaha, sometimes humans are more like devils than the devils themselves.

HIKARU: Ahh! What was that just now?

MOMOTARO: Was it a cry?

AKANE: Let’s go check it out!

*sound of door opening*

KENTO: This is…

RYUJI: Bats.

HIKARU: But! Isn't it odd to see so many bats jammed into a space like this?

MOMOTARO: I can sense the presence of devils. They have probably assembled here on purpose.

KENTO: It must be quite a lot to deal with so many bats.

MOMOTARO: Of course, it’s not impossible…. It would take a lot of our energy.

AKANE: Ehh? Aren’t you exaggerating?

MIROKU: It’s just dusting.

HIKARU: No no, that’s too exaggerated!

RYUJI: Hmph… Lowly humans ought to observe from the sidelines. *whistles*

HIKARU: Wow! Is this real? The bat just flew away like that!

KENTO: How did you do that?

RYUJI: The three of us have a natural affinity with bats.

HIKARU: That’s amazing! Demons are really good at getting rid of pests! If you make this your job, you will definitely get a lot of commissions and the demand will be overwhelming!

MIROKU: That does not sound like a compliment to us.

HIKARU: I’m definitely praising you guys! Anyway, since I’m asking for help, it’s inconvenient to not know your names, right? I don’t even know how to address you guys! Please tell me your names!

AKANE: Ah, you’re trying to get our names again!

RYUJI: (In disbelief) There is no way we can tell you! For us, the name is like the soul.

MIROKU: If others find out, it is equivalent to them discovering our weakness.

HIKARU: Eh?? What? I don’t understand! We are not enemies now and we will not mistreat one another… In that case, then I will give you names myself! That’s right… the orange-haired guy over there, you look like a pig, and the other guy over there who looks aloof and has sharp eyes—

AKANE: Wait, wait a minute! Your naming sense is so bad, I can’t stand it! Although I won’t tell you our real name, everyone calls me Akane.

MIROKU: … I’m Miroku.

RYUJI: Oh what a hassle. I’m Ryuji.

HIKARU: Then I’ll call you Akanechin, Mi-sama, and Ryuchin. Please take care of me from now on!

MIROKU: Mi-sama….

HIKARU: I feel like you exude a noble aura like His Highness.

AKANE: Hahah, but it suits Miroku very well!!

KENTO: Heh… You’re really good. You can actually get names from the devils and give them nicknames.

MOMOTARO: Hikaru can get along with everyone. There is no friend in this world that he can’t make.

—

*sound of message notification*

MIKADO: I received a message from Kenti. The pest control mission was successfully completed.

TATSUHIRO: That was pretty quick.

GOSHI: Those guys didn’t interfere with the work.

MIKADO: It appears that their assistance was the sole reason they were able to complete it so smoothly. Also, they seemed to have become familiar with each other and even sent me selfies. Take a look.

GOSHI: …Tsk, how leisurely.

KAZUNA: That’s great. I am relieved I left it to them.

YUTA: Hikarun, even though he was so scared before, he was able to become close to them…

TATSUHIRO: Do you feel left out?

YUTA: Eh?? No, that’s not what I meant… I just said it casually…

KAZUNA: It is still necessary to remain vigilant against devils, so your concerns are not misplaced.

*phone ringing*

MIKADO: Oh, there’s a phone call.

KAZUNA: Hello, this is Nightmare.

TOMOHISA: Hi, Kazuna.

KAZUNA: Calling me by my first name suddenly seems a little too familiar, doesn't it?

TOMOHISA: It’s fine. We are companions now.

KAZUNA: What’s the matter?

TOMOHISA: Actually, we found out something interesting about the devil that did the ritual. I wanted to talk about it in our office.

KAZUNA. I understand. I will be there right away—

TOMOHISA: Pardon me but we are looking for someone else, not you. Can Yuta come alone?

KAZUNA: What is your reason for that?

TOMOHISA: Well, that is… He knows it best. If he does not come alone, I will not tell you the information.

KAZUNA: Fine, I understand. *phone hanging up* Yuta, can you come to the OBS office now?

YUTA: Eh?! Me?

KAZUNA: Their condition is that you go there alone.

GOSHI: This is a trap no matter how you look at it.

TATSUHIRO: It’s too obvious.

MIKADO: However, if we do not follow their conditions, we will not receive the information.

GOSHI: But still! We can’t fall into their trap so easily!

YUTA: It’s okay! I’ll go! I’ll definitely get the information!

KAZUNA: Tatsuhiro, could you please stay nearby? If anything happens, you can support Yuta at any time.

TATSUHIRO. I got it.

GOSHI: Even if we hide, the other party will definitely find us.

KAZUNA: We do not plan to hide. We need to let them know that we are likewise on guard. Yuta, you should also keep vigilant against them.

YUTA: Okay! I will be leaving now.

*door closing*

MIKADO: That’s really strange. Why on earth would they want to go look for Yutaso?

KAZUNA: It is not clear yet but there must be some special reason.

—

*door opening*

YUTA: Wow, it’s so luxurious! It’s totally different from our office.

HARUHI: Ah, Yuta-kun!

YUDUKI: You've arrived.

YUTA: … Are you twins?

YUDUKI: Tomohisa-san is waiting for you inside. Please come in.

YUTA: Ah… Yeah.

TOMOHISA: Greetings, I have been waiting for you for a long time.

YUTA: So then… What is the information that you want to tell me?

TOMOHISA: Let’s eat something first before we get down to business.

YUTA: Wow, it looks delicious!

YUDUKI: Please take a seat.

HARUHI: Actually, I’ve always wanted to talk to you, Yuta-kun! So I’m glad to meet you!

YUTA: Then… I won’t be polite. Excuse me for being rude.

TOMOHISA: Today, as a token of our closeness, we have prepared a special grape juice for you. *sound of pouring* Thank you for coming today. A toast.

HARUHI & YUDUKI: Cheers!

YUTA: Then, I’ll be nice…. *drinks* Ehh? What is this? It’s delicious!

TOMOHISA: Hehe…. As long as it suits your taste, that’s good.

YUDUKI: Is the grape juice really delicious?

HARUHI: Do you really think so?

YUTA: Mhmm! It’s delicious! I’ve never tasted grape juice this delicious! And, I felt a little nostalgic while drinking it… It’s mysterious!

HARUHI: That’s great! We prepared it just to make you feel good!

YUTA: Hmm? Ah… Uhm, thank you.

TOMOHISA: It is a rare opportunity today, and if you are willing, we would like to hear your story.

YUTA: I don’t have any stories to tell….

HARUHI: Ah, in that case, can I ask you a question? Why did you become an exorcist?

YUTA: Why did I become an exorcist…. I can’t really say. Maybe it’s something my family has been doing for generations… Probably.

YUDUKI: So you have come from a family with a long history.

YUTA: It’s not that exaggerated! However, Gochin and Kenken, who grew up with me, both said that they wanted to become exorcists, so I thought, “I want to be one too!” and that’s how it happened….

HARUHI: So that’s how it is.

TOMOHISA: How is it? Do you like your job as an exorcist?

YUTA: Well… Although there were many difficulties, my friends always helped me. Thanks to them, I can continue to do it.

TOMOHISA: It seems like you have some great friends around you.

YUDUKI: But they are all professional exorcists.

HARUHI: So, if they discovered Yuta-kun’s true secret, would they still consider you as a friend?

YUTA: What are you talking about?

TOMOHISA: There is nothing to hide between us. We already know your secret.

YUTA: Ah!!

HARUHI: Yuta-kun, you should really be our companion.

YUTA: What! No! I’m a human!

YUDUKI: You can’t be human.

YUTA: How can you be so sure?!

TOMOHISA: That glass of grape juice was delicious, right? …It was mixed with blood.

YUDUKI: That’s the devil’s favorite drink. Ordinary people would find the bloody smell too strong and wouldn’t be able to drink it.

YUTA: How could that be!

HARUHI: That’s why we keep asking you, is it really delicious?

TOMOHISA: You find it delicious, which is the best proof that you have devil blood flowing in your body.

—

MIKADO: So, how was it? What was it like on your first mission with a devil?

HIKARU: Well… It was really, no, I should say it went super smooth and fun!

KENTO: Although I can’t completely trust them, we can still communicate with them.

MOMOTARO: I can feel that there are some benefits to this collaboration.

HIKARU: Really, really! I’m a little sorry I was so scared of them before.

GOSHI: Aren’t ya about to be pulled over by them?

HIKARU: Huh? By the way, where are Yutan and Tatsu?

KAZUNA: They are going to the office across the street now. They asked Yuta to go there, so I asked Tatsuhiro to follow as an escort.

KENTO: Isn’t it dangerous?

KAZUNA: But it was the condition proposed by the other party.

MIKADO: They should be back soon.

*door opening*

HIKARU: Yutan?!

MOMOTARO: You came back very late. Are you okay?

KENTO: What happened to Yuta?

MIKADO: He locked himself in his room…

HIKARU: Ah, Tatsu! You’re back. What’s going on?

Tatsu: Sorry, I don’t know either. He suddenly rushed out of their office and I just followed him.

KAZUNA: Really?

GOSHI: Ugh…! Those guys!

KENTO: Wait, where are you going?

GOSHI: Of course, go to them and ask them directly!

HIKARU: Ah, he left.

KAZUNA: I will go take a look too. I will leave Yuta in your hands.

MIKADO: Leader, be careful.

MOMOTARO: If anything happens, please contact us immediately.

KAZUNA: Yeah.

*footsteps leaving*

KENTO: Next is… *knocks on door* Yuta, are you okay?

MIKADO: There’s no reaction.

HIKARU: Oh yeah, how about luring him out with some tasty snacks?

TATSUHIRO: He’s not a child anymore, how could he come out so easily with that?

HIKARU: Look! This is a macaron that the client who was looking for the cat sent me a few days ago! It has an appetizing glimmer and a sweet fragrance, and it looks delicious!

*Door opening*

HIKARU: Yutan!

MIKADO: Yutaso!

TATSUHIRO: Is this for real?

MOMOTARO: He actually came out because of the dessert…

KENTO: You really have no resistance towards sweets.

YUTA: Those macarons… Can I eat them?

HIKARU: Of course! You can eat as many colors as you like!

YUTA: Thank you… *Eats heartily*

KENTO: Uwa… such a huge treat, but ate it two… three… in one go…

TATSUHIRO: Having an appetite is a good thing.

YUTA: It’s really delicious… As expected, I really love sweet things the most… But…. But…. I actually said that those scary, horrible things tasted good… *crying*

MOMOTARO: What happened?

YUTA: I… have been hiding something from everyone.

KENTO: …Yuta!

YUTA: Thank you, Kenken. But I don’t want to hide it from anyone anymore.

MIKADO: Hiding what?

TATSUHIRO: Yuta, tell us.

YUTA: Actually… I… I’m not human.

—

Scene 5

RYUJI: Heh… You actually let Yuta drink that stuff.

AKANE: And then? How was it??

HARUHI: He said it was delicious!

YUDUKI: His response exceeded our expectations.

MIROKU: In other words, he is—

*Door suddenly opening*

HARUHI: Uwah! You scared me!

RYUJI: Isn’t it rude to open the door so suddenly?

GOSHI: You guys… What did you do to Yuta?!

TOMOHISA: That is a very rude way of greeting. I guess we did not invite you over though.

KAZUNA: I apologize for his intrusion, however, it seems that you also did something unkind to my companion.

HARUHI: You’re making a big fuss over nothing. We didn’t do anything excessive.

YUDUKI: We just confirmed his real identity.

KAZUNA: ….

RYUJI: Huh? You’re not surprised at all.

GOSHI: Did you know about this for a long time?

KAZUNA: Well, I just found out about it recently. I would not go into details, but I stumbled upon Yuta’s story during a solo mission. But even with the connections of the church, I could not find any detailed information, so I guess there might be something hidden.

TOMOHISA: You are really skilled. It is a pity to let you be a human. We do not intend to hide it, so we will tell you…. Yuta has the blood of a devil.

GOSHI: ….!!

HARUHI: That was a long time ago though~

YUDUKI: Once upon a time, there was an excellent exorcist who was sent to seal a high-level devil.

MIROKU: It was the exorcist who slowly opened the heart of the lonely devil, and eventually, the two of them fell in love.

AKANE: The child born between them is neither human nor devil, but a hybrid. It is taboo for both humans and devils~

TOMOHISA: Because that exorcist broke a taboo, his entire clan was exterminated, but it seems that there are still some survivors.

RYUJI: The descendant of that survivor is Yuta.

—

YUTA: I’m sorry I kept it a secret from everyone until now.

HIKARU: Yutan… is actually a devil… No way, how is this possible?

TATSUHIRO: It’s really hard to accept it all at once…

MIKADO: Could it be that Kenti knows about this?

KENTO: Goshi and I both know about it. After all, we have known each other for a long time.

MOMOTARO: But if we trace our ancestors back a long time ago, even if there is devil’s blood, it should have been diluted by now.

MIKADO: Yes! We have been with Yuta for so long, but we have never felt that there is any devilish aura from Yuta!

YUTA: No… The devilic power in my body is getting stronger. I think the little bit of blood mixed in the juice just now tasted good.

KENTO: It seems like they are testing you on purpose.

YUTA: I’m different from you guys… I’m a devil. Every morning is getting harder and harder, maybe soon I’ll just say blood tastes really good.

MIKADO: Yutaso…

TATSUHIRO: What are you gonna do now?

YUTA: I’m no longer qualified to be an exorcist. I can’t stay here anymore.

HIKARU: Ehh?!

KENTO: Yuta, calm down!

YUTA: I’m leaving… this place. Up until now, thank you… everyone.

—

TOMOHISA: And with that, we wanted to accept him as our companion.

GOSHI: What? Don’t even think about it!

RYUJI: But for Yuta, this might be a better choice, right? He seems to be more like us lately.

GOSHI: There’s no way—

HARUHI: Lately, have his mood swings been more severe than before?

MIROKU: Also feeling tired in the morning and it’s hard to get up…

YUDUKI: There should be other signs.

GOSHI: …!!!

AKANE: See, this is our proof that he is turning into a devil~

GOSHI: That’s just your wild guess!

YUDUKI, No, it is the truth.

TOMOHISA: If this continues, Yuta will eventually be unable to suppress the devil in him.

GOSHI: Even so, I won’t hand over Yuta to you! He is our—

MIROKU: Maybe your companions don’t think so?

GOSHI: What did you just say?! Hey, say something too!

KAZUNA: This is not something we can decide.

GOSHI: Haa?!

KAZUNA: This is Yuta’s own business. We must first ask him clearly what he wants.

*Phone ringing*

KAZUNA: It’s Hikaru calling. Hello?

HIKARU: Leader! There’s trouble! Yutan ran away from the office!

KAZUNA: Huh?

HIKARU: Everyone is looking for him now, but they can’t find him at all. What should we do?

KAZUNA: We will look for him soon. *hangs up phone* Yuta is missing. Goshi, do you have any ideas where he might have gone?

GOSHI: The cake shop in front of the station, the sweets shop in the shopping street, and… That guy always eats sweets!

RYUJI: Wrong. Yuta is not in those places.

GOSHI: Tsk! You act like you know everything….

TOMOHISA: Demons have a much stronger sense of smell than humans.

AKANE: Yuta is a half-blood, and his aura is completely different from the other devils.

YUDUKI: If it were us, we would know his whereabouts very quickly.

GOSHI: Then lead the freaking way!

MIROKU: Is that your attitude when asking for help?

HARUHI: I was going to tell you guys… but now I suddenly don’t want to say it.

GOSHI: !!

KAZUNA: Please tell us. We cannot leave Yuta alone.

TOMOHISA: Then, let’s make a contract to exchange information.

KAZUNA: Contract?

RYUJI: The devil won’t help you for free. No matter how small the matter is, a contract is required.

TOMOHISA: I want you to give us some of your blood. *chuckles* I am VERY interested in your blood.

GOSHI: Are you freaking kidding me?

KAZUNA: Ok, I agree.

GOSHI: ….!!! Hey!

KAZUNA: As long as it is to save Yuta, I do not mind.

RYUJI: (mocking) Wow, that’s really touching~! Humans are such strange creatures.

TOMOHISA: Oh, do not worry. We do not need it right now. We will come to you when we need it.

KAZUNA: ….

GOSHI: Hey, tell us where he is!

MIROKU: If you continue to be so rude, I am afraid I won’t be able to help but kill you.

KAZUNA: If that happens, then I would have to stop you.

TOMOHISA: *chuckles*

RYUJI: Akane, have you found where Yuta is?

AKANE: Yeah, I roughly know the location.

GOSHI: Let’s get going!

—

YUTA: Haa… What should I do next? I can no longer stay with everyone.

*Footsteps approaching*

YUTA: —Who is it?!

DEVIL: Greetings.

YUTA: Uh, who are you? Mister? Have we met before?

DEVIL: Although this is the first time we meet, I know you very well because we have the same blood.

YUTA: Ehh??

DEVIL: The devil your ancestor mated with is from our bloodline. Mixed blood devils have powers we do not have. I hope that you can join us as companions.

YUTA: You want me to be your companion?

DEVIL: That’s right. I performed a ritual to increase the demonic power within you. Did you see it?

YUTA: A ritual… Could it be?!

DEVIL: Yes, that magic circle in the tunnel.

YUTA: —!! You killed those innocent people for something like this?!

DEVIL: This kind of thing? For us, this is a big deal. To welcome you as our companion.

YUTA: …Ugh! That’s too cruel! I will never be a companion to such a person!

DEVIL: Oh? So what are you going to do next? You are neither human nor devil, so who do you expect to accept you?

YUTA: I, that…

DEVIL: Haa... you are so useless. You are just a half-baked person.

GOSHI: Yuta!!!

YUTA: Ah!

HIKARU: Sorry for being late.

YUTA: You, you guys... why are you here...

DEVIL: Tsk, a bunch of troublesome guys.

MIKADO: Were you bullied by this demon?!

MOMOTARO: That's unforgivable.

TATSUHIRO: I'm going to beat him up.

KENTO: We’re not that desperate…

KAZUNA: Everybody stand back.

HIKARU· Leader!

KAZUNA: I will never forgive anyone who dares to harm our treasured companions.

YUTA: Kazunachi! This demon is dangerous! He was responsible for the rituals in that tunnel!

KAZUNA: It's okay.

DEVIL: Hmph, you are just an ordinary human, what can you do?

KAZUNA: I will make you shut up your filthy mouth real quick... Amen.

DEVIL: Aaaaaaahhhhh!!

HIKARU: So strong!

MIKADO: The demon disappeared in an instant.

TATSUHIRO: I haven't seen Leader's spells for a long time.

MOMOTARO: As expected, you are a top-class exorcist certified by the church.

KAZUNA: Yuta, are you okay?

YUTA: Yeah…

HARUHI: Wow, what a wonderful exorcism!

YUDUKI: There is no trace left.

RYUJI: Are you guys stupid? Can't we just capture them alive and extract information from them before solving the problem?

AKANE: There's nothing we can do about it. Humans are just emotional.

MIROKU: We cannot understand people who act impulsively because of anger.

RYUJI: Hey, Tomo, you think so too, right? Uh, why are you crying?

TOMOHISA: No, their bond is something to admire, fragile yet beautiful, it is just so stupid...

AKANE: Tomo really has no resistance to beautiful things.

TOMOHISA: Although humans are filthy and hateful, the way they try their best to survive in it is truly irreplaceable.

KENTO: I see, you weren't praising us at all.

GOSHI: It's just a waste of time to talk about this. Let's go back quickly.

MIKADO: It's really strange, once I feel relieved, I suddenly feel hungry.

HIKARU: I want to eat yakiniku! Let's go out and eat together!

TATSUHIRO: Where does the money for yakiniku come from?

HIKARU: Woopsie

MOMOTARO: Are you eating instant noodles again today?

KENTO: You can't eat instant noodles or those additives.

KAZUNA: It tastes great when we eat together.

YUTA: ….

GOSHI: Hey, Yuta, what are you doing? Come here quickly.

YUTA: Eh? Can I... go too?

KAZUNA: Of course. You are our companion, and I don't remember the church allowing you to leave.

YUTA: *cries* Thank you!

—

YUTA: Everyone! I have something very, very, very important to tell you!

GOSHI: It's so noisy! You suddenly want to say something so loudly.

HIKARU: Now that you mention it, I feel a little nervous.

TATSUHIRO: You're not saying you've decided to leave, are you?

YUTA: No, I plan to continue to be an exorcist in Nightmare! No, I should say that I will work harder!

MIKADO: I feel relieved when you say that.

YUTA: However, I am a half-demon and half-human, so I am a half-witted existence. So, I want to turn it into an advantage and work hard to become stronger!

MOMOTARO: What do you mean by turning it into an advantage?

YUTA: Yeah! That is... although he is an exorcist, he is also a demon! Something like that, right?

GOSHI: Isn't that what it means literally?

TATSUHIRO: Is it being a hybrid?

YUTA: I think so! I need to receive training and learn how to control the power of the devil in my body!

MIKADO: That is great!

KENTO: That is good for you. We already have Goshi, who is considered a nonconformist by the church, so having another demon hybrid shouldn't be a problem.

GOSHI: Are you looking for trouble?!

KENTO: I'm just stating the facts.

YUTA: This was actually Kazunachi's advice to me!

KAZUNA: After this incident, we realized that there might be dangerous factors that the church has not yet grasped. In this case, Yuta's presence is very helpful to us.

MIKADO: Tunk! A new era that will overturn history is about to arrive!

HIKARU: I agree! After all, the last time we were on a mission together, we worked well with the devil!

MOMOTARO: Yes, indeed.

TATSUHIRO: They were the ones who told us Yuta’s location before.

YUTA: Eh? Really? Could it be that... They saved me?

GOSHI: How could they be so kind? Those guys won't act without benefits. There must be some conspiracy.

HIKARU: But but! If the cooperation goes well, maybe we can even have a good meal!

MIKADO: I also want to be like Hikarun, and have a friendly relationship with the devil where we can use nicknames with each other!

*Door opening*

HARUHI: Wow, this office is still so shabby!

MIROKU: If we want to use this place, we may need to completely renovate it.

YUDUKI: And I think if all of us come in, it might be too crowded.

AKANE: Tomo, why don't you just buy the whole building? Wouldn't it be quicker to become the owner?

MIKADO: What are you doing here?

RYUJI: We are just here to invite Yuta.

KENTO: Just coming here to negotiate like this is too direct.

TOMOHISA: Besides, I haven't received the equivalent payment from Kazuna yet.

TATSUHIRO: The price?

HIKARU: Eh? Leader? You didn't agree to anything weird, did you?

MOMOTARO: Do you want to take action?

KAZUNA: Don't worry, it's okay.

GOSHI: Yuta will not become a demon.

KENTO: Besides, we can't completely trust you.

RYUJI: Really? But Yuta is always welcome to us.

HARUHI: Wouldn't it be faster to just take him away directly?

YUDUKI: But it's better to solve the problem smoothly.

MIROKU: It's best to make a decision early.

TOMOHISA: We are… waiting for the right time.

HIKARU: Ehhh! I really should pay attention to my back!

YUTA: I'm fine now. I'm determined!

—

*Footsteps approaching*

KAZUNA: I am here to deliver the report.

COMMANDER: You arrived just in time.

KAZUNA: Regarding OBS which is operated by the devil, the murder of the client's wife's affair partner on the grounds of proxy revenge have been commissioned as planned, and have verified that the target has been killed. This is the report.

COMMANDER: I see. So how is the situation over there?

KAZUNA: We are still investigating his family. Although he has decided to continue to work for Nightmare, he still lacks maturity and is potentially a dangerous young man. I will continue to keep an eye on him.

COMMANDER: It also appears that the devils have extended an invitation to you.

KAZUNA: As expected, you are well-informed. However, I have sworn allegiance to God and will never compromise my morals by siding with the devil.

COMMANDER: That is a strong resolve. The most crucial aspect of being an exorcist is maintaining your integrity and refusing to be deceived by anyone.

KAZUNA: Yes, I will keep that in mind.
