Chapter 7: The 4th friend
Himari finally starts to attend the school she has enrolled in as her place in the school will be forfeited if she doesn’t start attending. During recess, classmates start to question her about previous life in Tokyo and the topic soon switches over to the Momochi House. One occult-mad classmate, Senoo Tadashi (guy in specs), mentions that his grandmother has strictly forbidden him to venture anywhere near the Momochi House, for fear that he will be punished by the Omamori-sama (The Protector). Another classmate, Madarame Rui (long, dark haired girl), dismisses all these rumours as fabrications by weak-minded individuals. Himari soon discovers that 4 classmates (including the 2 abovementioned ones) have followed her home and tries to dissuade them from visiting by telling them that there is nothing out of the ordinary about the Momochi House. Unfortunately, their curiosity isn’t slaked and she reluctantly lets them into the house. Himari tells Aoi and co that she will inform her classmates that she is staying with 3 sisters and bids them to not make an appearance. However, Yukari soon comes into the room bearing tea and refreshments for Himari’s classmates. To Himari’s shock, Yukari introduces himself as Himari’s eldest sister, Yukariko, Ise as Iseko and Aoi as Aoiko. Even the little house sprites make an appearance in the drawing room as Iseko’s toys. Senoo Tadashi seems infatuated with Iseko and praises Iseko enthusiastically for “her” wonderful hobby. Aoi leaves Ise to deal with the guests and takes Himari away with him while complaining to Yukari about the high-school female uniform he has been forced to wear. Yukari just smiles and doesn’t answer Aoi’s question on just where did he unearth this uniform from. Aoi has drawn Himari away to alert her to the fact that one of her guests is actually dead and is already half a spirit. Compounded by the fact that the classmate’s entry into the house has accelerated the transformation, the rest of the classmates and Himari will be endangered if the guest is not exorcised soon. However, Aoi and co cannot do anything to exorcise the dead classmate because he/she is a guest of the house, so the only solution currently is for Himari, the owner of the house, to rescind the invitation. Aoi assures Himari that he will try to research for other solutions, but reminds Himari that should anything untoward arise, he will protect her. Himari tries to think of ways to distinguish a spirit from a human being and since the conversation between her classmates has shifted to the topic of foods, Himari asks her classmates about their dislikes. Madarame Rui is unable to take ultra-spicy food; Torii Aika (girl with short, curly hair) is afraid of insects; Iizuka Hana is scared of mirrors and Senoo Tadashi is fearful of dark places, which Himari thinks is strange for an occult-maniac. Suddenly Himari notices Iizuka’s unease and takes her to the washroom. Along the way to the washroom, Himari notices that for a fleeting second, a mirror in the hallway that they have just past by does not seem to display Iizuka’s reflection. Himari dismisses it as a figment of her imagination initially, but when Iizuka takes a long time in the washroom, Himari opens the door to check on her. To her shock, a lifeless Iizuka with a glazed expression is on the floor. Yukari tells Himari that Iizuka’s not dead and her current lifeless state is due to Iizuka’s loss of her soul. Aoi confirms that Iizuka’s not the dead classmate.
The chapter ends off with a mysterious figure on the roof who muses about friendship and the course of action his Nue will take.
Chapter 8 – The 4th friend Part II
Aoi surmises that Iizuka’s soul had been taken away by the dead classmate, so Himari is desperately thinking of ways to identify the culprit. When Torii questions Iizuka’s absence, Himari simply concocts a story of how Iizuka has gone home first due to some urgent matters at home. Madarame then suggests that they too should be on their way home, but Senoo wants to stay a little longer in order to take a look at the other rooms. Madarame agrees to Senoo’s suggestion as she wants to reclaim her handkerchief from Iseko’s “toys”. Himari then decides to lead them past the mirror in the hallway to test out her theory that something might happen when the remaining classmates stand in front of the mirror. Senoo suddenly asks to be left behind in the waiting room because he feels embarrassed about entering a lady’s room, resulting in some ragging by Madarame. She ushers him on by telling him it’s a good chance for him to get close to Iseko. While Madarame teases Senoo, Torii takes the opportunity to thank Himari for the wonderful afternoon. Torii reveals that she has been absent for long periods of time from school and thus she has been unable to make friends. Torii walks off happily after proclaiming her thanks to the one who told her to make the first move, a statement which Himari doesn’t understand. Himari suddenly feels the presence of someone other than Aoi and co nearby. She calls out to Torii to ask about who the person was, but Madarame and Senoo give Himari quizzical looks and ask who Torii is. It is only then when Himari realizes that Torii’s reflection doesn’t appear in the mirror and that Torii is the dead classmate. Aoi appears and tells Himari to quickly expel Torii from the house. To his astonishment, Himari points to the room where Iizuka lays and tells her to get lost from the house. Iizuka appears at the door and asks Himari what kind of spell Himari used on her since Himari doesn’t possess any magical capabilities. A black fire encompasses Iizuka and a young man Aoi calls Kasha appears. Kasha is unhappy at being asked to leave and questions Aoi about Himari. Aoi warns Kasha not to touch Himari, which Kasha purposely ignores and sends black flames to attack Himari. Ise and Yukari are tasked with Himari’s protection while Aoi turns into Nue to fight Kasha. In the meantime, Kasha instructs Torii to consume Nue in order for her to turn into a powerful yokai and fulfill her dream of making friends. Nue decides that destroying Torii would be the best solution, but Himari rushes in to tell Torii that everything’s ok and that she can see Torii. The scene now flashbacks into Torii’s memories and we learn that she has spent much of her time in hospital and hence she is very lonely and longs for friends. It is her strong longing for friends that has made her easy prey for Kasha who uses that wish to get Torii to follow Himari home. Once Himari assures Torii that they are friends, Torii is satisfied and finally disappears for good. Kasha is dissatisfied with the ending but tells Nue that he will be back again with more interesting entertainment. Himari questions Aoi about Kasha but Aoi simply apologises for getting her involved and tells her to forget about Kasha since he is of a different level from the other yokai she has encountered. Aoi. Suddenly Himari remembers that her 2 classmates are still around and desperately tries to concoct a plausible excuse. Madarame saves Himari from needing to make up any excuse by declaring that she saw nothing but some smoke and that she now knows that the Momochi House is just like any other house. Madarame also tells Himari that she doesn’t care to know why her family members are dressed up like that, and makes Himari happy by addressing her by her first name, which is an indication that they are now friends.

Thank you so much!
Chapter 9 – Red flames that burn in darkness
Aoi has been avoiding Himari as he doesn’t want to answer her questions on Kasha. Thus, Himari bribes one of the sprites to lead her to Aoi with the use of sweets. However, Aoi escapes Himari again with a ruse and Yukari tells Himari that it is pointless trying to ask Aoi about Kasha. The only thing that Yukari can say is that Kasha is one of the few people that Aoi doesn’t think well of. Yukari then suggests that Himari asks Ise about Kasha since both Ise and Kasha are fire-type demons. However, Ise objects to this classification very strongly as he points out that his fire and Kasha’s are of different colours and types. Kasha’s fire is black and will suck everything into its darkness. Since Ise refers to Kasha as “Great General”, Himari innocently asks Ise if Kasha is more powerful than Ise, which infuriates Ise and leads him to proudly announce that his fire is fire from Hell that will burn everything in its path. Himari then proceeds to tell Ise that she would like his help in erasing something, but Ise interjects and tells her that he no longer has any interest in getting involved with the world of demons and has given up everything to become Aoi’s shikigami (a demon/spirit who is controlled by someone with magical abilities e.g. an onmyouji). Zushi explains to Himari that the demon world is highly stratified, so someone as powerful as Kasha is very fearsome and out of their league. The scene shifts to Aoi who is busy trying to contain some demons who’ve managed to get past the protective barrier he has cast, leading him to wonder if these events are a result of Kasha getting invited to the Momochi House. Ise raises his doubts about that because someone of Kasha’s caliber wouldn’t resort to something as juvenile as simply breaking Aoi’s barriers. Kasha would probably have chosen to make a much more dramatic entrance. Just as Yukari and co prepare to check all other barriers around the house, Himari finally manages to locate them. Aoi admires Himari’s resourcefulness in locating them, but reminds her that this place is dangerous for humans. Himari responds by reminding Aoi that he’s also a human, and that she’s here because he’s been avoiding her questions about Kasha. Ise is quite upset at the mention of Kasha’s name and Yukari wonders if Himari’s been hypnotized by Kasha since she is so persistent in trying to find out more about him. However, Himari shocks them all by pointing out that the walls are full of Kasha’s mark, which has led to her persistence. She’s tried to get rid of the marks but they just don’t come off, so she’s aware that these aren’t just simple graffiti. At this point, Aoi and co finally realize that Himari’s seeing marks on the Momochi House walls that are invisible to them, and that Kasha’s set up a trap for them. Angered, Aoi transforms into Nue to deal with Kasha’s marks, but unwittingly falls for Kasha’s real trap, which is to burn Nue with his dark flames. Although Ise wants to help free the trapped Nue, Yukari stops him as their running into the flames would only help fuel Kasha’s fire further. Yukari comes under attack from one of Kasha’s shikigamis, Gozu, and Ise transforms into his real form in order to save Yukari. Unfortunately, Ise is unable to control his powers and starts to burn the house down too. This is because the link between Ise and Nue is severely weakened now that Nue’s trapped by Kasha’s flames. If left unstopped, Ise’s fire will turn his own body into ashes, which is part of Kasha’s plans. Kasha watches in glee as he tells Nue that the fact he is unable to see the mark is an indicator that Aoi is no longer human. Kasha’s objective is to take Nue with him into his world of darkness, but his plans are foiled by Himari who directs Ise to clear away the darkness surrounding Nue by lighting up the area. Her plan works and Nue is freed. Ise regains his control and gets rid of Kasha’s dark flames, but the house is still guttered. Himari smiles and tells Ise that they will prove that they’ve won Kasha by rebuilding the house. Aoi is still upset that he was unable to see the mark, but Yukari comforts him by suggesting that Kasha set the trap in such a way that only Himari could have seen the marks. This makes Aoi recall Kasha’s remarks about how he is no longer human and thus he mutters about how Kasha’s always able to hit him in his weakest spots. Aoi muses that previously, such a remark wouldn’t cause him so much distress, but now, he wants to remain human a little longer in order to be with Himari.
Thanks!
I’m curious if Aoi is starting to turn fully into Nue now. And Kasha interests me ^^”
Well basically Aoi can turn into Nue at will so in a sense, he is the current Nue, aka Omamori-sama. Such a person has always existed in the Momochi House, and other demons that have appeared in the book do mention that Aoi’s a little different from previous Nues.
I agree that Kasha’s interesting but so far he’s more like thorn in Aoi’s flesh? hahaha
Yes, I understand that, by the way, in one chapter he (Aoi) saw himself as Nue in the mirror, so we can say it’s his alter ego, and it kind of made me curious if Nue as a spirit can take control over his host. Yeah, he is. In chapter 6 that mermaid demon was like “you aren’t as nice as a previous one and something will happen to you…” (I don’t remember the exact quote and am to lazy to check that chapter xD”’).
Yeah, that’s right, hehe.
Not surprising if Nue will eventually take over his host body. Also I wonder if it’s possible for the host body to be a female (remember that it has yet to be revealed y Himari inherited the house or who sent her inheritance to her), and if the previous Nues had shikigamis like Yukari and Ise. After all, we know that Yukari and Ise are not bound to Nue but to Aoi.
Chapter 10 – A dream or an illusion? A party at Momochi House
To Himari’s surprise, Aoi asks Himari to go out with him since she’s free. After all, Himari knows that Aoi cannot leave the Momochi House. After Himari is dressed in the robes Yukari hands her, Ise puts a cap on her head and tells her that she cannot remove the cap or leave Nue’s side. Aoi leads Himari to a section of the house she hasn’t been to, and reminds her that she cannot come to this section of the house alone. Once through the door, Aoi transforms into Nue and tells Himari to call him Nue-sama (The Great Nue). Although part of the Momochi House, this courtyard is actually bordering the realm of the demons, so Aoi explains to Himari that it’s better for him to be in Nue’s form. The demons in the courtyard welcome Nue by forming a hanamichi (lining up in 2 rows to welcome honoured people), offering their congratulations at the same time. Himari wonders what the cause for the celebration is but Nue simply tells her that these are simply festivities before the commencement of a ceremony. The hanamichi, the congratulatory messages and the setting of Nue and Himari’s seat confuses Himari as these resemble a wedding ceremony. To Himari’s disappointment, Nue simply declares to the others present that she is just a new shikigami of his. She decides to enjoy herself by pigging out on the food provided, but Nue stops her by saying that mud might come out from the food, and that food prepared by the demons here aren’t the same as those prepared by Yukari. Disappointed, Himari asks Nue why did he bring her along. Nue initially avoids the question by asking if she’s unhappy to accompany him here, but later replies that he wants her to see demons in their natural habitat. Himari agrees that the demons here in the courtyard are presenting a very different spectacle from what she’s seen so far. She decides to go dancing with them since she can’t eat or drink. Nue smiles and reminisces about a girl from his past who like Himari, seems to be dancing. An old man followed by 2 female attendants comes forward to congratulate Nue for becoming so awe-inspiring and magnificent, so he hopes that there will be no problems with the ceremony to be held later on. The old man reveals to us that this will be the 2nd time the present Nue is to conduct this ceremony. His words makes Himari wonder if this is a birthday celebration for Nue, and racks her brain to think of a gift for him. Although she remembers that she’s not supposed to leave Nue’s side, she really wants to prepare a gift for him because she feels a great debt of gratitude to him for giving her to have a home and family. After all, she came into ownership of the Momochi House on her birthday, and so she would like to make Nue’s birthday special for him too. Himari considers getting Nue a decoration or some flowers, and while she’s staring at a flower deep on thought as to whether to puck it or not, the flower shocks her by demanding to know if Himari’s jealous of her beauty. Himari quickly apologises to the flower, but the flower makes Himari all flustered when it says that Himari has the scent of romance surrounding her. The flower laughs and tells her that she’s on the side of girls in love, and instructs Himari to pluck other flowers nearby since they’re normal flowers. Himari thanks the flower and hurries back to the party venue, only to notice that the courtyard she’s passing by is surrounded by some dark aura, similar to what Kasha did to the Momochi House previously (but no mark). Nue appears just then and asks Himari if she’s bored by the party. Himari tells Nue of what she’s seen and her worries about there being yet another trap set by someone like Kasha and the weird aura surrounding the party venue. However, Nue reminds her that they’re still within the Momochi House compound, and that this is a demon’s party. Just then, Yukari and Ise appear and remind Nue that it’s time to start the ceremony. Nue turns away to head towards the venue of the ceremony amid all the congratulatory messages uttered by the demons who have formed themselves into a hanamichi again. Apart from the congratulatory messages, the demons can be heard uttering their relief that Nue will once again perform a ceremony to subdue a powerful demon found in the Chinui Hole, enabling them to have no fear until the time comes for another ceremony. Himari then realizes that the atmosphere of the venue has changed drastically, and notices that the old man again comes forward to greet Nue. The old man is concerned that Nue has not drunk enough liquor to withstand the pain of the ceremony. Nue dismisses the old man’s concerns by telling him that his body and magical powers have matured considerably since the last time he performed the ceremony. The old man, whom Nue calls “The Watcher”, recalls how Aoi was bedridden for a month after the ceremony, and is just worried about whether Nue’s body, aka Aoi, can survive the ceremony again. It seems that the demon that Nue must seal inside the Chinui Hole is so powerful that only Nue can handle him, and that all past Nues have successfully continued the tradition. In addition, the old man reveals that Nue is an extremely powerful demon who does not belong to any particular tribe. These statements worry Himari tremendously and she calls out to Aoi, but Yukari holds her back and tells her that they cannot do anything as this is an important part of Omamori-sama’s job. Yukari explains that the only way to subdue such a powerful and angry demon is to allow the demon to possess one’s body temporarily, and because Nue doesn’t have an actual body, Nue is the only one who can perform this task. Like others before him, Aoi is simply a medium for Nue’s continued existence. Himari disentangles herself and runs after Aoi, who enters the Chinui Hole alone.
Oh, the action starts! Thank you so much
Chapter 11 – The Nue of Chinui Hole
Himari keeps calling out to Aoi, who has gone into the Chinui Hole (Note that once Himari realized the danger Aoi is in, she has stopped calling him Nue). Ise tries to comfort her and tells her that he shares her concerns but there is nothing they can do right now for shikigami aren’t allowed inside. Himari is adamant in wanting to get to Aoi since she believes that he brought her along for a purpose, and that she can’t just stand by and let Aoi go through such an ordeal alone. Just then, the old man’s attendants snatch Himari away from Yukari and Ise, saying that Himari has an important role to fulfill. Ise and Yukari try to stop the old man but he silences their protests by declaring that Himari is needed in order for the ceremony to proceed smoothly. The old man explains to Himari that although shikigami are normally not allowed into the Chinui Hole, an exception will be made for her. Since Nue purposely made her sit beside him at the banquet, she must be a shikigami that Nue cares a lot for. The previous ceremony proceeded smoothly because Aoi was still a child. With Aoi now a matured and powerful Nue, a trump card like Himari is required to control Nue. When Himari realizes that she is to be used as a hostage to threaten Nue, she tries to escape. In the ensuing struggle, her cap falls off and the old man realizes that Himari is actually a human being, making her even more useful to him.
The scene changes to Nue where he is surveying the crucified demon. Nue comments that it’s been a while since he’s dealt with this crucified demon, and that the rage this demon feels is still uncontrollable. The old man (The Watcher) and his attendants finally make their entrance at this juncture, and Nue reprimands him for being late. Nue doesn’t realise that a gagged Himari is with the Watcher’s attendants and proceeds to start the painful ceremony. The Watcher tells Himari to take a good look at what Nue has to do in this ceremony. The hate and anger of more than 10,000 beings trapped inside the demon (who was originally a human being) has now become one with Nue. Nue must now solidify all these feelings into the shape of a human being and then re-crucify this shape. The Watcher urges Nue to quickly re-crucify the demon, but the demon now speaks and tries to convince Nue to join his side. As Nue doesn’t move to re-crucify the demon, The Watcher drags Himari along with him and gets near Nue. Nue is shocked and angered to see Himari, and delivers a heavy blow to The Watcher before demanding to know why The Watcher has dragged Himari into the Chinui Hole. The Watcher asks Nue if it’s true that Himari is important to him. Nue angrily tells The Watcher that he has gone too far by trying to make use of Himari, and threatens to destroy him along with the seal. Himari realizes that Nue isn’t his normal self and cries out to Aoi to stop as she’s ok. Nue stops in his tracks to turn to look at Himari, and The Watcher muses that he believed that Himari’s voice would reach Nue’s heart. The Watcher pleads with Nue to continue the crucifixion, and tells Nue that he would not mind being destroyed by Nue as long as the crucifixion proceeds as plan. Nue tells The Watcher that he has underestimated him before completing the crucifixion ceremony. Afte this, we learn that the demon was actually The Watcher’s good friend who had deceived The Watcher and destroyed an entire clan in revenge for his own clan’s demise. Unfortunately, his soul was engulfed by all the rage of those he had killed and he transformed into a vengeful demon. Finally, he managed to crucify himself and The Watcher became a demon too in order to continue his watch over his unfortunate friend in hopes that one day, his friend’s rage will subside. However, The Watcher is powerless and is unable to proceed with the crucifixion himself, so he has relied on Nue all this time to perform the re-crucifixion. The Watcher apologises profusely to Nue for doubting his ability, and it is then when Himari realizes that The Watcher had taken her along in hopes of maintaining Nue’s sanity. Himari once again asks Nue why did he bring her along, and he initially replies that it was in a fit of drunken stupor. Nue continues to say that he was worried that if he had left her behind, she would get herself into all sorts of trouble. He points out to an indignant Himari that she’s lost her cap, and that she can’t return to the banquet like that. Just while Himari’s panicking about the loss of her cap, the flower spirit appears and hands Himari her missing cap. The flower spirit asks if Nue is the one Himari wanted to give the present of love to, which of course causes Himari to panic further. Flower petals start falling down on Nue and Himari who take their leave of The Watcher and get out of the Chinui Hole. When left alone in the Hole, we see that The Watcher has regained his youthful looks, and he has a hand on the crucified body of his friend. He wonders what did his friend see inside the youthful Nue’s heart, and hopes that his friend can hear his voice a little better this time.
The scene changes back to Himari preparing to go to school, and before she leaves, Aoi gives her a ring made of a 4-leaf clover, which he says is in return for her gift of flowers to him. While Himari looks at the clover-ring happily, a boy comes over and demands to know where she got the ring from.
Sorry for the increasingly long summaries… (T_T) but there’s so much to tell!
Thank you very much
Thank you so much, I don’t mind reading long summaries, so don’t worry!
Thank you for the translations!
That’s all I can do since I’m not able to spare the time to do a full translation.
I can’t normally reply so

But when will it happen? Nue is a spirit but it seems like he’s a different person while hosting new people, I think it was somewhere, again, in chap6 with that mermaid, as this Nue doesn’t act as a previous one. But we kind of established it before that Aoi’s Nue is different. But why is he different? XD
Yes, I’m waiting when this part of the plot will move forward, I believe that maybe Nue is without a gender type of thing, but on the other hand I’m like ‘nah’ as in if Himari would be Nue she would change into male Nue,huh(?) I don’t know…
I think he might have shikigamis, maybe that dancing girl from his past? It’s interesting that Yukari and Ise are like “Aoi is our master, not Nue but we respect him too”.
Ah well we can only keep speculating after all… can’t wait for the next ep~ N thanks for any new uploads in advance

Chapter 12 – 4 leaf clovers and promises
The classmate who demands to know where Himari got the clover ring from is Hidaka Hayato, a classmate who seldom attends school. Some classmates believe that Hidaka Hayato is cursed since people who have had contact with him have suffered injuries. However, Senoo interjects to say that his grandmother has said that the Hidaka family is supposedly able to control fox spirits. Himari decides to consult Aoi as she worries that Hidaka Hayato could be suffering from pranks made by demons such as Kasha.
On her way back, Himari is suddenly confronted by a fox mask-wearing demon who demands to have her clover ring. Himari’s refusal results in the demon trying to cut off her finger with a pair of scissors, but his plans are interrupted by Zushi who has come out of the Momochi House to wait for Himari. The demon tells Himari that he will definitely be back for the clover ring and disappears. After Aoi learns of the attack on Himari, he hands Himari a wooden phone that Himari can use to contact him during emergencies. In addition, Yukari prepares some offerings of inari sushi and leaves it outside the Momochi House along with a new clover ring since Yukari and Ise think that the demon is probably some young demon attempting to gain more power through the ring Aoi made. As Himari suspects that there is a connection between Hidaka Hayato and the fox-mask demon, she asks Aoi if he knows of a Hidaka Hayato. At the mention of that name, Aoi is surprised, but finally replies that Hidaka was his childhood playmate, and that Hidaka no longer remembers him. Ever since Aoi became Omamori-sama, he has ceased to exist in the outside world. Himari wonders if Aoi misses the people in his past and tries to ask Aoi if it’s possible for anyone outside to remember him. Aoi simply tells her that they are no longer living in the same world and leaves the room.
That night, Himari is unable to sleep due to the events of the day. Suddenly, she notices a fox-like figure outside her door. She becomes all tensed up, thinking that it could be the fox mask demon from the afternoon, but it turns out to be Aoi. However, at 1st glance, Himari thinks that she saw Nue and not Aoi. Aoi offers to sleep together with her since he’s worried about her. Of course, Himari immediately rejects the offer and pushes Aoi out of her room. She pauses to give Aoi a hug for she remembers the look on Aoi’s face when Aoi talked about how he is no longer living in the same world as his past acquaintances. In her heart, she promises to be with Aoi.
As a precaution, Zushi accompanies Himari to school the next day. On the way to school, they meet Hidaka Hayato, who warns Himari to not get involved with him as misfortune might fall upon her. This warning is met with scorn by Zushi, who tells Himari that Hidaka Hayato has no magical powers, and is definitely not able to control any fox spirits. On the way home, Himari and Zushi are attacked by the fox mask-wearing demon, who takes out a big pair of scissors in an attempt to cut off Himari’s little finger. Himari thwarts his plans by calling Aoi, who deals a crushing blow to the scissors and the demon via the phone. The scissors used by the demon has a tag that displays the name Hidaka. She takes this opportunity to question the demon on his reasons for playing pranks on people who have come into contact with Hidaka Hayato, to which the demon replies that the Hidakas deserve this treatment for imprisoning them. The demon escapes and Himari wants to give chase, but Aoi tells her to give up the chase as he doesn’t want her to do anything reckless. Aoi continues to ask if she has seen the face of the demon, and seems relieved when Himari replies that she has not been able to. A close-up of the demon’s face reveals that the demon closely resembles a young Aoi.

Chapter 13 – The fox in the sunset Part 1
Hidaka Hayato dreams of his childhood exploits with a friend whose face has been blanked out and whose name he cannot recall. We learn that this dream has plagued him repeatedly, to the extent that he is unsure if the incident and his friend are simply dreams or reality.
The scene shifts to Himari and Aoi who are discussing the Hidaka incident. Himari wants Aoi to help Hidaka, but Aoi replies that he can’t since he can’t leave the Momochi House, and he also rejects Himari’s idea to invite Hidaka over to the house. In the end, Himari goes to Hidaka’s home and tells him what befell her yesterday. Hidaka is shocked to learn that the fox-mask wearing demon really exists. It is also revealed that Hidaka is unable to see the demon, but as he has made a pact with the demon, Hidaka thinks that it is his own fault for being cursed by the demon, so he doesn’t want Himari involved. However, Himari is certain that the demon will appear again, so she pleads with Hidaka for more information on his pact with the demon so that she can help solve the problem together with him. Finally, Hidaka agrees and tells her that although everyone believes that the Hidaka family is able to control fox spirits, their family is no different from other families. The only special thing found in the Hidaka home would be the little house in the backyard where his mother leaves offerings at every morning. Hidaka remembers a childhood friend whom he was extremely close to, but he cannot remember the playmate’s face or name. The friend was an intelligent boy and they were an unbeatable combination at everything they did together. This playmate was an expert at finding 4 leaf clovers, and once gave Hidaka a ring made from a 4 leaf clover, calling it a protective charm. Surprisingly, after receiving this charm, everything went smoothly for Hidaka, even when it came to subjects he was normally bad in. One day, his friend started avoiding Hidaka without any apparent reason. A depressed Hidaka decided to give a 4 leaf clover ring to his friend in return, and started searching his backyard for a 4 leaf clover. Unfortunately, he was unable to find any, and when Hidaka cried out his frustration, a voice asked Hidaka if he wanted his wish to come true. The voice originated from the little house in the backyard, and the voice asked Hidaka to voice out his wish. In return for granting Hidaka’s wish, the voice will want Hidaka’s most prized possession. Hidaka believed that the clover ring his friend gave him was his most precious possession, so he agreed. A 4 leaf clover immediately appeared in front of Hidaka and he took that happily to school the next day. To Hidaka’s shock, his friend disappeared from school and from everyone’s memories. Soon, even Hidaka himself was unable to remember how his friend looked like. It was only then when he realized that the voice from the little house in the backyard had granted his wish, only to take away his best friend as payment. Even now, Hidaka sometimes wonders if it had all been a dream, but the clover he had obtained from his backyard and the clover ring his friend had made for him still exist, so Hidaka is certain that his friend existed. He also believes that as a result of the pact, he has become cursed, and no one would believe such a fantastic story. Himari interjects by telling Hidaka that his friend does exist, and that they should be dealing with the demon.
After Himari returns home and tells Aoi that Hidaka hasn’t totally forgotten him, Aoi explains to Himari that his becoming Omamori-sama and Hidaka’s pact with the fox-mask wearing demon probably happened on the same day. Since all the events surrounding Hidaka happen after the pact is made, it is highly likely that the demon in the little house is the culprit. After thinking it through, Aoi finally decides that he needs to act and explains to Himari the reasons for the demon’s actions. Basically, since no one in the current Hidaka house is aware of the Hidaka family’s history with the fox demons, they have angered the fox demons by confining them inside the small house. It is also not possible to end their association with the fox demons one-sidedly. Himari subsequently visits the Hidaka House, and hears angry voices coming from the small and dingy house. Hidaka is unable to hear anything, so Himari decides to act by first giving the little house a spring clean after pasting some charms onto the house to weaken the demons’ power. While cleaning the house, Himari talks to the demon and asks him to not cause any more trouble for Hidaka Hayato. The demon replies that it is his brother who is angry but their conversation is cut short with the appearance of Hidaka’s mother. When she realizes that Himari is a member of the Momochi family, she tells Himari that her father had been the last Hidaka able to control the fox demons. Since both herself and Hidaka Hayato were unable to see the fox demons, her father had the little house built and moved them over, leaving instructions to provide offerings in a daily basis. He also told Hayato’s mother’s that if any member of the Momochi family were around, she could consult with them on how to deal with the fox demons. Hayato’s grandfather’s instructions were carried out religiously by Hayato’s mother, but after Hayato’s run-in with the demon, she has been sick with fear since there is no one else she can consult with. Himari explains that she is first going to clean up the house and then talk to the demon after changing the arrangement of the current rope barrier. Hayato’s mother pulls off the rope barrier immediately after hearing Himari’s words, causing a big group of fox demons to burst out from the little house. Himari then recalls Aoi’s words about how these fox demons are supposed to help bring prosperity to any family they are living with, so they are supposed to multiply. The fox-demons circle the Hidakas, exclaiming their anger at being confined in the little house, but Himari pleads with them to come with her instead because no Hidaka present can see them anymore. When the fox-demons realise that Himari is a member of the Momochi family, they acquiesce to her wishes, remarking sadly that they are now invisible to all but Himari, and follow Himari home. They warn Himari that their older brother is trying to find a way to become a powerful demon so as to make the Hidaka aware of his presence. Hidaka follows Himari home as he is worried that he will lose another friend. As Himari expected, the fox-mask wearing demon appears once again in front of her, blocking her path home. The demon notices that Hidaka is with her, and tells Hidaka that he will show Hidaka just how fearsome he is. Himari escapes with Hidaka in the opposite direction.
Thank you!
I’m glad that someone still remembers Aoi. So, Momochi’s blood is really powerful, Himari isn’t Nue but still… *evil,kinda,laugh*
Sorrie it’s up so late… N u’ll have to wait a while till I post the rest as I’m quite busy now
Don’t worry. Okay, thanks for telling me that
Chapter 14 – The fox in the sunset Part 2
Himari and Hidaka try to find another way to reach the Momochi House, but the fox-mask demon soon catch up with them, declaring his intentions to eat Himari and become a powerful demon. Suddenly, Hidaka stops running and shouts out to the demon that he is sorry for not being able to hear the demon’s voice nor see him. Hidaka tells the demon that he hated it because he thought that his friend had been taken away by his pact with the demon. Hidaka also reveals that he had hated people around him for not believing in his story, so he guesses that the fox-mask demon has gone about cursing these people on his behalf and tells the demon that he understands how it feels to want to prove one’s worth to others. The scene flashbacks to where the fox-mask demon is seen chasing others, and to a scene where the demon tries to attract Hidaka’s attention by jumping around, telling him that he will be useful fox-demon for Hidaka. Angered by Hidaka’s statement, the demon moves in to attack Hidaka, decrying Hidaka’s inability to see or hear him, and for likening his actions to that of a human’s. The demon is only stopped in his tracks temporarily by Himari who throws some charms at him. Himari and Hidaka escape through a door Himari spies amongst the bushes. The angry demon follows, only to be confronted by Nue who sends him flying across the garden for his rudeness in addressing Nue, owner of the Momochi House. Nue tells the young fox demon to come over to live at the Momochi House along with his brothers. Suddenly, Hidaka runs towards the fox demon and removes the mask to reveal a young Aoi underneath it. Hidaka is finally able to recall Aoi’s name and face. However, the figure under the mask soon disappears, and is revealed by Nue to be Hidaka’s lost memories. When Hidaka made a pact with the fox-mask demon, the demon only removed memories of Hidaka’s memories of Aoi because a young fox demon doesn’t have enough power to take away a human being. Hidaka’s memories have now been returned to him, so Aoi’s image has now disappeared. Hidaka questions Nue on Aoi’s disappearance, and Nue replies that Aoi no longer exists in the human world. Hidaka pleads with Nue to take his soul or anything possible in exchange for being able to stay in the demon world and meet Aoi once again for he no longer wants to deal with the loss of anyone again. Nue rejects his proposal and causes Hidaka to lose consciousness. Nue then changes back into Aoi, and Aoi takes a good look at his friend, commenting that his friend will be ok and that he has only grown up physically.
The scene changes to the next morning where Himari goes to Hidaka’s home to pick him up for school. They become friends on a first name basis and they chat about yesterday’s happenings. When Himari talks about how glad she is that Hidaka will no longer be tortured by memories of the charm, he asks if she means big charm that she was wearing yesterday. Himari corrects Hidaka and tells Hidaka that it’s the one his childhood friend Aoi gave him. However, Hidaka shocks Himari by asking who Aoi is. It is only then that Himari realizes that Aoi’s comment about his friend being ok indicated that Aoi was aware that Hidaka would truly forget everything about him this time around.
the end broke my heart….
Yeah this story’s quite sad

Chapter 15 – Opening Pandora’s Box!
The little fox-mask demon is now an occupant of the Momochi House along with his brothers, but unlike his brothers, he is giving everyone a hard time, especially Aoi, and goes around the house declaring that he will curse everyone. Finally, he is subdued by Ise, but he refuses to tell anyone his real name because he thinks that Aoi will make him a shiki-gami by using his real name to control him, so Himari decides to call the little fox demon Kon-chan. Ise tells him that Aoi won’t do something like that, but Kon-chan declares that he can’t believe Aoi as Aoi is deceiving everyone. Kon-chan rattles on about eating a human like Himari so that he will become a powerful demon and make everyone look at him differently. Kon-chan’s loud declarations suddenly make Himari think of Kasha and she starts wondering if Kasha’s influenced Kon-chan to make him believe that eating someone strong would make him a strong demon. Hence, Himari tries to tell Kon-chan that he mustn’t believe Kasha as he is not to be trusted. Just then, to everyone’s shock, Kasha appears and asks what Himari means since he’s too busy to bother about little fox-demons. Kasha then proceeds to throw at Aoi a box, exclaiming that he’s troubled by the fact that he can’t open it, so he’s giving it to Aoi. Aoi rejects the gift immediately, but Kasha ignores Aoi’s rejection and simply muses aloud that Aoi’s a really tough nut to crack before disappearing. Aoi decides to seal away the box in the deepest recesses of the Momochi House since no good can come of Kasha’s gift. While Aoi and co discuss the potential of this box being a Pandora’s Box, Kon-chan snatches the box away and escapes with it, declaring that opening the box will make him a great demon since it’s a gift from the great Kasha. Naturally, Aoi and co give chase since they deem the box to be a danger. In the end, only Himari guesses correctly that Kon-chan has not hidden himself too far away because she has had a fair amount of experience with little children during her time at the orphanage. Himari asks Kon-chan to tell her the reasons for him thinking that Aoi is a liar, but Kon-chan angrily retorts that he’s not called Kon-chan and finally blurts out that his real name is Tamamo. His unwilling admission of his real name shocks even himself, but somehow, Tamamo continues to prattle on about how Himari’s a great name and that he finds everyone in the house kind so he doesn’t dislike them. Tamamo only dislikes Aoi because he was deceived by Aoi. Again, Tamamo is shocked at how he’s blurting out everything against his own will. Himari asks Tamamo once more for his reasons for disliking Aoi, but Tamamo escapes Himari’s question by dashing out of the room, leaving the box behind. Aoi appears from behind the screen, and wonders aloud what he has done to cause Tamamo to hate him so much. Himari, who has picked up the box, suddenly asks Aoi if he is really ok with Hidaka’s complete loss of all memories of their time together. Aoi is taken aback by Himari’s question, and Himari herself is shocked at her boldness in asking such a sensitive question. Aoi gives a short affirmative reply to Himari’s question. Seeing this, Himari tries to explain away the awkwardness of her question but when Aoi asks her why is she asking such a question, Himari answers that it’s because she likes him and is thus worried about him. Himari cannot comprehend why she is saying such stuff and Aoi is visibly shocked at Himari’s answer. While a flustered Himari tries to explain herself, Aoi takes the box away from Himari and passes it to the other little house sprites to hold. Each of them starts blurting out their innermost thoughts about what they want to do or what they are thinking about. Aoi explains to Himari that the green light emanating from the box has the power to make everyone voice out their innermost thoughts, explaining why both Tamamo and Himari blurted out their thoughts against their own wills. Embarrassed, Himari explains to Aoi that she likes him as a family member, so it is only natural that she worries for him. Himari quickly changes the subject and asks Aoi to use the box to show Tamamo that he isn’t deceiving Tamamo in any way, an idea that Aoi agrees to. Himari rushes off to discuss with Yukari and Ise on what to do, leaving Aoi slumped over the box, reassuring himself aloud that Himari’s regard for him as a family member is good though he looks crestfallen at Himari’s clarification.
Meanwhile, a crestfallen Tamamo laments his loss of the box. Suddenly, the box appears in front of him, with a note attached that tells Tamamo that the contents of the box will make one stronger. Tamamo is suspicious and believes that it’s a trap, but the nice smell emanating from the box is attractive to the little fox demon. Suddenly, his brothers appear and carry him and the box away to the garden, where Himari and co have prepared a welcome feast for them. Tamamo growls at Himari for using a box and his brothers to trick him into coming, but Himari tells him that the box isn’t a trap since it contains Yukari’s delicious handmade inari-sushi, which will make him big and strong. Tamamo can’t think of a suitable retort to Himari’s logic, so he tries to change the subject by asking about Aoi’s attendance at the party, only to be interrupted by Himari who tells Tamamo that no one’s deceiving him. Nue appears in front of Tamamo and explains to him about the box containing fireflies that will make one declare one’s deepest secrets. Since Nue is holding the box and isn’t blurting out anything, it only goes to show that he has nothing to hide. Tamamo is shocked by the explanation and tries to run away in his embarrassment, but Nue demands that Tamamo not run away and explain himself about what he thinks Aoi has deceived him about, man to man. Tamamo is frightened by Nue and doesn’t dare to speak. However, the fireflies get to Tamamo and he finally admits that it’s because he had thought that Nue looked so beautiful at first sight that he thought Nue looked like a mother, so when Tamamo found out that Nue was a man, he felt sorely aggrieved. Himari tries to comfort Tamamo by telling him that Nue is also partially at fault for Nue’s tail makes him look like a fox too. Aoi tries to defend himself by pointing out how Nue’s clothes are very open in the front, making it clear that he’s a guy, but Himari interrupts him by saying how she was surprised by Nue and not Aoi being the one to clear up the misunderstanding. Before Aoi can reply, Kasha appears and takes the box away, telling Himari that Aoi doesn’t want to hold the box. Himari scolds Kasha and tells him not to cause anymore mischief. Kasha ignores her and thanks them for helping to make the box empty since he, who has nothing to hide, is unable to get it emptied of the fireflies. Kasha departs and declares that the box will make a good pillow. By then Tamamo has fallen asleep on Yukari’s lap, and we learn that this action reminds Yukari of Aoi when he was little, and that fox demons are formed through replication, so they don’t have parents. Ise cannot understand why Tamomo yearns for a mother because his own mother was so fearsome that just the thought of her is able to scare him witless. Himari turns to Yukari and comments that Yukari must have had a strict upbringing since he’s such a capable housekeeper. It is then we learn that Yukari was formerly a human.
Sorry to have kept you guys waiting! Work had been too draining of late…
Thanks
Thanks!
Hm, so maybe Aoi is hiding something – from this part – “Kasha appears and takes the box away, telling Himari that Aoi doesn’t want to hold the box.”
btw. I really like Kasha….

Chapter 16
The foam of Present and Past Part 1
Because the Momochi House is so old, no air-conditioning is available, and everyone’s suffering in the sweltering summer heat. Only Yukari is unaffected by the heat as he is a water spirit and brings in almond jelly to help everyone cool down. However, that isn’t enough for Ise and when Aoi enters the room, Ise pleads with him to bring them to a water spot in the spirit world that can be accessed through one of the inner paper sliding doors. Yukari thinks that it’s a good idea and tells them to wait while he prepares bentos for them to take along. Aoi opens one of the sliding doors to reveal a rocky pool where some demons can be seen frolicking in the water. This is actually one of the back gardens of the Momochi House, so Aoi tells HImari that she has nothing to worry about since the demons that can come into this area are only harmless demons. However, the number of demons here surpasses Aoi’s expectations. A kappa tells Aoi and co that it’s because the waters of a lot of places have become too polluted for them to play in, so they’ve all assembled here instead. Yukari then decides to take them to another water spot through an old well. No other demons are seen frolicking here, so Ise and the rest play happily in the cool water while Aoi reads in the shade and Yukari and Himari set out the bentos. Yukari’s comment about the waters here being known as “Human-eating Lake” causes Tamamo to fall off his float in shock, much to Ise’s disgust. Hence, this waterfall is actually one of the 7 waterfalls governed by the River God, and the one which Yukari stayed at when he became first became a spirit. A monastery can be seen along the banks of the lake, and demons stayed away from this small lake due to its fearsome reputation. Thus, the waters of this lake have remained pristine, and the wells at Momochi House also draw water from this source. Just then, Ise shouts at Tamamo for dirtying the water, but Yukari soon realizes that it’s impossible for Tamamo to dirty this water on such a large scale and tells everyone to get out of the water immediately. It is revealed that the dirty water is poisonous to spirits and demons as their bodies will rot after touching such water. Aoi soon concludes that this isn’t an isolated incident by linking the appearance of this dirty water with what the kappa told them just now about the recent pollution of other water spots. Since almost all the water flowing in the demon world are under the control of the River God, Yukari and co conclude that something bad has happened to the River God. It is revealed that Yukari hasn’t met the River God ever since his arrival at the Momochi House, so Yukari believes that the River God is probably angry at him, which has resulted in the River God using this dirty water to express his anger. The demons living in this lake also think that Yukari is the cause of the pollution, but Yukari points out that he was ordered by the River God to serve the Momochi House, so he is fulfilling his duties. However, the demons argue that since the River God has never made an appearance in this lake since then, that is proof of his displeasure, and that the only way to appease the River God is to offer a living sacrifice. It seems that even these demons cannot talk to the River God, and that only the sacrificed person can, so the demons want to find a human to perform such a sacrifice. It is also revealed by the demons that Yukari became a water spirit after he was offered as a human sacrifice to the River God. Aoi tries to calm the demons down by telling them that there probably are other ways to deal with the River God, but Himari rips off her triangular cap and offers to become the sacrifice. Yukari comes between the demons and Himari before the demons can get their hands onto her, and declares to the demons that Himari is too precious to be offered as a human sacrifice since she is a descendent of the Momochi family. Yukari is adamant that he should be the one to plead with the River God, but collapses onto Himari before he can finish his sentence. Due to the pollution of Yukari’s lake, he is greatly weakened since the lake is the source of his power. Despite Aoi’s objections, Himari insists on becoming the human sacrifice because she feels that the River God must have realized the loneliness that Yukari felt while living alone at a lake that even demons feared to thread and sent Yukari over to the Momochi House to alleviate his loneliness. Aoi concedes defeat at Himari’s reasoning, but reminds Himari that he doesn’t want to put her into any danger, so even if the opponent is the mighty River God, he will do everything in his power to exorcise the opponent.
The scene changes over to Nue who is calling out to the River God and we see Himari standing in a little boat floating in the lake. Ise and the rest can’t get close to the lake due to the poisonous water. Just as Yukari awakens, the River God appears and he is entirely black in colour, which means that the River God is becoming evil due to the poisonous water. Nue concludes that the River God cannot be saved anymore and orders Himari to get away so that he can exorcise the evil River God. Himari spots a bright spark in the River God but before she can alert the rest to the spark, she is dragged underwater by the River God.
Oh ho ho, thank you so much and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to u too! I can’t wait for the next chapter~~~~ 😀 😀 😀 Though I won’t have time to translate any more chapters until after the new yr….
That’s okay. I’m happy you found time to summarized these two chapters before the end of this year.
Haha yeah I rushed them out in-between my work lol…Can’t wait for the next chapter that should’ve been released on Christmas Eve! I wanna know what if that teacher is related to Kasha or something!!!! Somehow he seems really fishy!!!!
I’m sorry to all for the long wait! Here’s Part 2 hehe
Chapter 17
The foam of Present and Past 2
The River God that is supposed to protect the purity of the waters that flow between both the demon and human landscape has now turned almost entirely black, except for the one bright spark that Himari has spotted. In his haste to save Himari, Zushi tries to enter the polluted waters, but is stopped by Ise as all demons that touch such water will rot away. Zushi tells Nue to remove the spell cast onto him but the demons waiting around tell Zushi that his actions are foolhardy since the opponent is the great River God and that divine punishment will await him for trying to fight against such a God. Nue ignores their comments by declaring that he’ll accept any kind of punishment as long as Himari doesn’t get taken away and attempts to start the exorcism, only to be stopped by Yukari who begs to be given a chance to speak to the River God directly so as to understand the River God’s true intentions. Nue agrees reluctantly but reminds Yukari that he must return to them before lifting the spell that binds Yukari to the services of Nue. Yukari attempts to appease the River God and talk to him, but the River God doesn’t respond to Yukari’s pleas. Just then, Himari manages to grab a hold onto Yukari and directs him to the location of the bright spark she noticed hidden amongst the black scales of the River God’s body. The plan works and the waters immediately clear up, but Himari and Yukari do not emerge from the waters. Though Himari and Yukari have succeeded in clearing the darkness from the River God, they have been absorbed into the foam that came overflowing out from the River God, and found inside that foam are Yukari’s memories, so Yukari takes this opportunity to show Himari how he became a water spirit.
Yukari had been an orphan in a war-torn country somewhere unspecified, and he was picked up by a high-ranking official passing by. This man was the right-hand man of the inept ruler of this country where many orphans simply died of hunger along the main streets, and Yukari’s beautiful silver hair and blue eyes had caught his attention. This official decided to use Yukari to get close to the ruler and eventually get Yukari to assassinate him. The name Yukari was given by this high-ranking official, and when Yukari became 14 years old, he was presented to the ruler as a distant relative of a high official. The ruler took to Yukari’s exotic looks immediately, and Yukari quickly became his favourite concubine. Yukari bid his time in carrying out his orders from his master, but soon realised that the ruler was not truly bad, but was simply utterly depressed at what was happening in his country and unable to take the terrible stress of leadership. Seeds of doubt began to surface in Yukari’s mind about his master’s plans, but before he could do anything, the ruler was assassinated by others and the assassins attempted to use Yukari to frame his master for an attempted coup. Although Yukari didn’t display much emotion towards others throughout his life so far, he did feel indebted towards his master and his instincts to save himself kicked in, so Yukari massacred all the assassins. In order to avoid any blame for the ruler’s death and attempted coup, Yukari’s master distanced himself from Yukari and declared him to be a demon’s child who devoured humans. Hence, Yukari was sent to be a living sacrifice to the River God as punishment. Although Yukari should have died at that juncture, the River God decided to turn Yukari into a water spirit and allowed Yukari to live quietly by himself at the little lake. One day, the River God suddenly appeared in the waterfall at the lake and commanded that Yukari leave this lake and go to the Momochi House as changes were anticipated at the currently dilapidated Momochi House. Yukari did as the River God ordered and soon met with Aoi and became his shikigami. Yukari wants to meet the River God again to ask why he was sent to the Momochi House, but he has yet to meet the River God again, even though he has returned several times to the lake. Himari muses that the River God probably saw how lonely Yukari was living by himself at the lake, so he ordered Yukari to go to the Momochi House, where people like Aoi and co were. The River God appears then and confirms Himari’s hypothesis about his actions by explaining that he had been struck by the emptiness found in Yukari’s eyes when he first saw Yukari. The River God saw a reflection of himself inside Yukari’s quiet loneliness and decided that he would at least try to save Yukari by letting him be reborn as a water spirit. Unfortunately, as the River God’s role is to maintain the purity of the waters of both the human and spirit worlds, the River God is fated to be constantly on the move, and is unable to stay by Yukari’s side. Hence, the River God soon realized that he hadn’t done anything to help Yukari’s loneliness, so he decided to release Yukari from his service and send him to the Momochi House. In addition, the River God resolved to keep his distance from Yukari so as to prevent the fiercely loyal Yukari from having any second thoughts. The River God hid all his emotions and kept his ears and eyes shut to everything and anything, which eventually gave someone the chance to cast a spell onto him and caused his body to turn into the colour of stone. Since not many people are powerful enough to attempt to cast a spell on the mighty River God, Yukari is alarmed, but the River God tells Yukari that it’s alright now since the cause of all these problems is actually his refusal to open his heart to anyone, and now that he’s had a good talk with Yukari, he doesn’t want to pursue the matter anymore. The polluted waters are now completely cleared up by the River God, and he tells Yukari to put his heart towards the service of his new master while he will once again continue his solitary journey through the human and demon realms. Before the River God departs, Himari calls out to him and gives him thanks for the water that they always receive from him, and reminds the River God that they are always connected by this water, so he’s not alone in his journey. Yukari smiles and tells the River God that they will come and visit him if he’s going to be in the vicinity. The River God seems pleased and promises to meet them again.
Yukari and Himari finally return ashore, much to the relief of Ise and co. Nue notices a piece of paper that comes ashore with Yukari and Himari, and picks it up for closer examination. Yukari apologises to Nue for the trouble and worry he has caused, and once again affirms that his only master is Nue. Nue replies that he has not been worried about Yukari because he is Nue’s shikigami, but Nue turns around to glare and scold a stunned Himari for doing dangerous stuff. Before Himari can reply, Nue leads everyone home while clenching the paper he has picked up from the waters.
Thanks for the trans. 😀
thanks for the summary!
Maybe that person who put a spell on River God is that creepy dude form the end of ch20?
Hm, I’m just gonna sum something up, so bear with me, Nue is an alter ego of Aoi, it’s its own entity that posses people from Momochi clan (oh, got another thought, maybe a person who wanted Himawari to become Nue – that sealed that house and made that trap in which Aoi got caught is that same person who put a spell on the River God?), he has his own memories (as seen in one chapter), every new Nue is kinda different and we know Aoi’s Nue is much more different than the previous one(s). He might have took over Aoi’s body without his knowledge (that scene when Aoi thought he transformed into/saw himself as Nue in the mirror and when Himawari thought she saw Nue and then it turned out to be Aoi or it was supposed to be a fox, huh, okay I don’t remember, I’m not re-reading and I don’t always check these scans with every summary, so I’m sorry if I messed something up! ^^”’), maybe Aoi’s feeling towards Himawari interacts with Nue’s feelings (he might also have his own feelings towards her… just saying), we know that Aoi/Nue is hiding something…. Crap, I’m trying to write this all really nice, tidy but it may look chaotic/complicated… Sorry!
answer to your comment:
I thought he might be related to Aoi (that teacher), yeah he is fishy and that guy who was holding Nue in chapter 20 (I think) is also creepy and I thin the teacher has something to do with him.
Wai new chapter~! Thanks Raff!
i like this manga so much, thanks for the raw.
Thank you so much Raffmanga!! I was waiting for a new chap.
I love it! Thanks again.
idk, for some reason the synopsis & picts looks like Kamisama Hajimemashita
OMFG THIS MANGA IS GOING TO BE RELEASE IN MY COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!! First volume will be out in July! F* YES!!!!!! 😀
I’m jealous
Hehe. I’m still shocked to be honest.
So there’s gonna be an English translation or something?
I don’t know anything about English publication. It’s gonna be released in Poland
I have just discover that it is released in France too. The title here is “The demon prince and Momochi”. LOL (The two first volumes)
Seriously..i got myself like a dictionary and was like ” Yoshhh, lets start lets start! ” and then I was like “Well..i guess i started too enthusiastically…”
Haha this manga uses a lot of words/phrases not used ordinarily
New chapter: http://hi.baidu.com/nobuta_p/item/5ee2ef787abf11315d178979
Nevermind, this chapter is the 22 one
thanks raff for sharing the raw with us … hope someone kind enough to translate this
Thanks for the new chapter!! Omg the story’s moving along quite nicely!
Okay, so the scanlating group released chapter 7. And we got this line that, if I’m recalling correctly, “don’t go near the Momochi house. If you do, the Omamori God will curse you.” was in chapter 1. And I’m wondering if it has something do to with the fact Nue “possessed” Aoi and a person who “gave” Himari this house wanted Nue’s power to themselves or something like that. And if it has also something to do with the beginning of that chapter (ch7).
Well even until this latest chapter we’re unaware of who exactly gave Himari the deed to the house, so IMO there’s still so much to be uncovered
Btw there’s going to be a play on this manga (just like those Prince of Tennis musicals) and this month’s Asuka magazine had a radio drama of this story too
Sorry for not updating with a new chapter summary for so long T_T I think I won’t have the time n energy to do so until end March…
about ch.24: I will add it tomorrow
Cheers!
Wow! Thanks for the new chapter Raff! OMG I can’t wait to know more!!! It sure looks like the teacher’s involved!!!

WAHHHHHHHH CLIFFHANGER!!! But many many thanks to Raff!!!
Someone, plz give it some english translations…!!! Onegai..!!!
Wait, what is happening right now?
The teacher’s trying to make Aoi his shiki-gami and he’s the one behind all the incidents so far. He’s also the one who told Aoi to go to the Momochi House as he knew that Aoi possessed the same abilities as he. He’s not related to Aoi by blood but like Aoi, he could see yokai from young and was tortured by the knowledge that no one else believed him. However, he decided that he should make these yokai do his bidding instead and so he started on his quest for more power. Unfortunately for him, although he coverted the power of the Omamori-sama, he couldn’t get to the Momochi House (since the house didn’t choose him to the Omamori-sama). So after he realised that children with powers like himself were likely candidates for the Omamori-sama, he started stalking children at the playground and that’s how he found Aoi. Realising that Aoi had the potential to be chosen as Omamori-sama, he placed a spell on Aoi to increase his chances of discovering the location of the Momochi House and told Aoi to go to that house and stay there for the night so that his parents will get worried about him and go there to hunt for him. It seems that Aoi had not wanted to return home because he’d cause trouble for his home and family, so Aoi took his advice and ended up being unable to leave the Momochi House.
O_O
I don’t know why but when he first appeared I thought he could be related to Aoi. Ho ho, so he is a final (?) bad guy.I hope he won’t be able to make Aoi his puppet. Wait, so he is the one who wrote the letter to main heroine about this house? But if so, it wouldn’t make sense because he told Aoi about the house etc. or maybe he didn’t know back then that Aoi went to the house.
Thanks for summary Trans!
He’s not the one who wrote the letter to Himari (at least no info abt that), and according to him, Himari possesses no special powers even though she’s a Momochi. It seems that Aoi has prepared something to fight back so Yukari is rushing to get it out in time!
Waiii I can’t wait for the next chapter! I don’t get it though… how come the teacher’s still so young looking even though quite a few yrs have passed since he last saw Aoi. Combined with the fact that his non-monk robes look like what Japanese young men wore in the 1930s, how old is he really??? Furthermore, he knew Aoi had gone to the house, and has been waiting for Aoi to grow up in order to capture him and gain entrance into the Momochi House.
Also, I really wonder if he’s the main villain. After all, Kasha did mention that he just didn’t like the fact that a human was meddling in Nue’s affairs… Can’t wait to read on!
So sorry to have not continued with the summaries! Hope to get them out soon~
It was supposed to be a theory with that letter, sorry for confusion! (I think in onw of my previous comments here I also scr*w*d something up, meaning I started to write and didn’t add a part of my thought to that comment xD”). Oh, really? Poor Himari, I thought she might have at least little power… Oh, that’s good, I hope it will work in him!
I think he might be immortal or done something a’la transforming his soul into other bodies or he done something to age differently. I hope he will never get into to that house.
Yes, there is also Kasha, but I don’t think he’s that much of a villain more of anti-hero. But he could also do something to our main heroes.
Don’t worry!
At least you wrote about what is happening now, that’s enough. When you will have time you can always get back to these long summaries 
pleasee anyone… translate this manga into english
OMG!OMG! Is that Kasha at the end?
As usual, can’t wait for the next ep and many thanks to Raff~

I hope someone will complete the English translation version of this manga in the future. 
Here you can find scanlated chapters (1 – 8) http://bato.to/comic/_/comics/momochi-san-chi-no-ayakashi-ouji-r8673
Also, above section of this comments you can find summaries provided by Trans.
Please support the translated versions from Viz and other publishers so that this author can get the credit she deserves for coming up with such a great story.
Anyway, here’s a summary of Chapter 29 for those who’re interested. I’m doing this purely from memory since I’m having some problems reloading the images, so I am sorry if I’ve gotten anything wrong
*SPOILERS*
*SPOILERS*
Himari is unsuccessful in getting Ise and Yukari to reveal what they know of Aoi’s past because Aoi has not provided explicit permission for them to do so. In the end, Himari is led to the spirit world by the charm/torch given by the Giant Neko Grandma.
Kasha and Nue are viewing Himari’s foray into the spirit world from afar. As both have agreed to not interfere in what she’s doing, Nue cannot help her explicitly. However, when he sees a group of yokai waiting to pounce onto Himari, Nue gets rid of them with 1 flick of his hand by declaring that yokai who ‘happen to be following after Himari (Kasha says that he didn’t inform the yokai about Himari’s presence and that these yokai are following her by chance)’ can also mysteriously disappear. Btw, if Nue loses the wager with Kasha, Kasha will take all traces of Aoi with him so that Nue will simply be Nue.
The torch leads her to a door, and its guardian demands a price for letting her through, and declares that her true name would be a worthy price since she’s a Momochi. Suddenly, the torch disintegrates and a small ball of light floats up to the guardian. To Himari’s surprise, the guardian declares that he has received a suitable compensation for him to open the door. According to the guardian, the torch has sacrificed itself so as to prevent Himari from losing her true name because Himari’s name is supposed to be written with the kanji for light. This confuses Himari because 1) her name has always been written in hiragana without any kanji 2) the guardian tells her that her parents gave her the name Himari but she has no recollection of her parents and only knows that they died in a car crash.
The door opens and Himari is admitted into a room full of records of every human being in the world. The guardian warns her of the fact that she can view the record of only 1 individual, and that this chance will never come by again. He also points out to Himari the location of her own record, and asks if she would like to find out more about herself. Himari hesitates initially, but she quickly gets over her indecision and chooses Aoi’s record.
Thanks! I\m waiting when there will be more volumes available in Polish, and then I’ll buy them ;’)
