Wait. Kudou-san was a youkai Kiri expelled?

Yes. Kiri-sama does that sort of work in the human world. Kudou-san had been haunting a home named Kudou for many years, but too much spiritual energy was gathering there, and accidents happened, so he was consulted by the home owner

Youkai can perform exorcisms on other youkai?

From what he was saying, it sounded like Kiri had expelled Kudou-san who was causing trouble from that home.

Thats right. Kiri-sama is really strong. He is often consulted when there are youkai doing bad things in the human world. Thats why there are ayakashi that are really afraid of him.

Did that mean Kiri frequently went back and forth to the human world? On top of that, even though he couldnt grasp the distance between the human world and the Country of Cats, if it was close enough for Kiri to give consultations, he must have had some close relationships with humans. From what they were telling him, didnt that mean the world of ayakashi was connected to the human world in several places?

Sometimes we help with his work too.

Huh?

Touya opened his eyes wide.

You guys go to the human world too?

Of course.

They both said as they nodded in unison.
