Sweet Saké

Soba-Dango Shiruko

Piping-hot Oden

Yukine. Tend to the shop when you're done there.

Right!

All right!

The Oden is ready!

Good work, so early in the morning!

Good morning!

Hiyori! Welcome!

So you really have started a part time job here.

W-Well, you know...

I at least wanna pay back the money I took.

Yukine...

Not even mean ol' Daikoku could say no after hearing that.

A lot's happened, but it looks like you've finally been set straight.

Th-There's that...

...but it's also 'cause Yato doesn't make any money himself!

Oh, right. Don't you have a favor to ask Hiyori too?

- I said it doesn't matter anymore! - What is it?

Err, uhh...

You're starting a new school year soon, right?

So he was hoping he could have your old textbooks and workbooks.

He wants to do the same stuff everyone else does.

I mean, if you're gonna throw it away...

Huh?!

Of course! You can have it all!

What's gotten into you guys?!

Oh, there you are, you two!

Don't forget to pay me too, okay?

- Ack! - Huh?

Hiyorin. You asked us to save Yatty, remember?

And we charge this much per request!

Oh, 5 yen?

5 million.

And, since we helped twice...!

10 million

10... million...

Don't worry!

You're cute and an amateur, so I'm sure you can earn it in no time!

Wait, Kofuku.

Hiyori should get a student discount.

Oh, right!

Just 1 million, then!

Sweet! 90% off! That's what I call thrifty!

Dealin' with the god of poverty is a cinch!

You still won't fix my body,

yet you'll get me into debt?!

You will help me pay!

What fighting federation does she belong to?

"Noragami"

I'm holding a loaded gun in one hand

I'm coming for you on foot, while you stand there shaking

Tick-tock, the clock hand moves, tick-tock

All you've done is speed up this panic

Tick-tock, the clock hand moves, tick-tock

I'm coming for you, with no sign of stopping

Tick-tock, the clock hand moves, tick-tock

There's a boundary between end and beginning

Tick-tock, the clock hand moves, tick-tock

But we've come full-circle

Silently, I waited

all alone in a dim room

Silently, I waited

for the sound of the door being kicked down

Silently, I waited

all alone in a dim room

Silently, I waited

There's nothing to be afraid of now

Holding my loaded gun

I kick down the tightly-shut door

The muzzle kicks back at point-blank

and perforates my yesterday's self

After taking the despair of, "Good night,"

my tomorrow's self sets out on foot

Let's meet up again tonight

Tenjin!

I'm here to say thanks for the other day!

It sounds like you had a tough time, Yato.

Oh? Really?

Really!

Why would you ever let your blight get so bad?

It was surely difficult on you.

The Sekki has rare, outstanding talent.

I couldn't let it go just like that.

More than anything, I wanted to properly reforge him.

I purposely let my condition worsen, to give him a stern wake-up call.

Well, I do understand the sentiment, I suppose.

Still...

You seriously saved the day!

I'd expect no less from Tomone, my former buddy!

Mayu is a nice, gutsy girl, as a matter of fact.

All thanks to a certain lowlife who took her in.

Well, I am pretty strict.

Oh? So you follow the four C's rather than the normal three.

- Crass. Childish. Crude. Clueless. - This is... - ...saying thanks?

- Come. Let us talk elsewhere. - No! Cool, classy, confident, and cultured!

Huh? One of the Regalias is gone.

Ms. Miyu, is it?

Oh.

Yes, she was kicked out for stinging Lord Michizane.

She was corrupted?

What happened to you is actually very contagious, you see.

Just seeing or hearing about it can infect others.

"When I grow up please let me be a school teacher."

Stinging a master even once means immediate banishment.

- Lord Michizane has always upheld this rule. - I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

- To harm others or yourself... - I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

...is to betray your master who named you.

Revoking your name and sending you away after an ablution

is actually a generous act.

Because, if you're lucky, a new master will take you in.

But, without that mercy...

I'm sorry. It was all because of me...

It can't be helped.

But you mustn't let this bother you; it would affect Mr. Yato.

We completely understand how you were feeling.

Regalias are quickly corrupted if they don't maintain their Borderlines.

Because, ultimately, they're Far Shore beings

who dwell alongside Phantoms, out of sight.

Be careful.

The darkness is always right there with you.

Darkness...

Despite everything, Mr. Yato refused to abandon you, Yukine.

You need to swear on that name that you'll protect your master from now on.

Right!

I swear on my name "Yuki"!

Yuki

What?

Nothing.

By the way, Tenjin.

I was hoping you could give me a tip.

Hmm?

It's about Hiyori.

Ever since her accident, she sometimes ends up in spirit form, you see...

Ah.

And I accepted her request to fix that.

But I don't got the slightest clue what to do,

so I've been putting it off all this time!

But she's helped me on a couple occasions now,

so I feel it's time to finally tackle her job!

Just how much of a lost cause are you?

Try cutting her ties with you, then.

Huh?

Doing so just might fix her odd condition.

Cut her ties?

Your connection grants her too much of a focus on our world.

Try cutting that connection, as a test.

That is your specialty.

Chapter 10 I Regarded with Hate

Studying at the library's totally better than studying at home.

- Yeah! - All right!

Another good day of studying!

We got big exams after the new year; we need to pick a shrine to pray at!

Yeah, can't forget to wish to a god!

I wish to graduate and be healthy and be popular and commute safely

and be popular and have safety for my family!

You wished to be popular twice.

It's that important.

You shouldn't burden the gods with too many wishes, you know.

That's what gods are for; to hear people's wishes.

Who cares about their schedules!

- Oh... - Oh, yeah.

Speaking of wishes, there's a god people have been talking about lately.

Oh, yeah. Him.

What do you mean?

They say that if you tell him the name of someone you want gone,

he really will make them disappear for you.

"Lord Rabo, Lord Rabo! I beg of you!" is how it goes, right?

Yeah, that's it!

Lord Rabo?

I've never heard of that god.

- It's just a fad anyways. - Yeah.

Huh? Are those school books, Hiyori?

- Wait, those are our old ones. - What are you doing with 'em?

I'm giving them to a friend!

"Rest Stop"

Kids! Workin' hard?

Daikoku! I'll have a chazuke snack!

What are you doing in our home?!

Oh, c'mon. Don't be so coldhearted.

I'm letting Yukine use this room! It ain't for you to relax!

You can go suck on some tea leaves!

Man...

No good. Do it again.

You sure are strict, Hiyori...

It's easy to mess up this part and this part. Be careful.

- Okay. - Let me see!

The trick to learning this stuff is drawing it!

There!

The Pillow Book's Sei Shonagon,

Hojoki's Kamo-no-Chomei,

and Tsurezuregusa's Yoshida Kenko!

- That's totally good! - That's totally good!

Awed, are we?

Man. Do you know how long I've been a god...

Quit doodling on my stuff!

Don't refer to my talent as "doodling"!

Then use that talent to earn some money!

Ugh! You always gotta butt in!

S-Say what?!

What?

N-Nothing.

Hiyori!

- Could you put the black beans in these? - The street slasher has yet to be found...

Despite being in plain sight...

Still No Clues About Serial Street Slasher

Okay!

There've been a lot of these news stories lately...

Be careful when you do your New Year's shrine visit tonight.

I'll be okay.

Serial Street Slashings

Investigation Task Force \hto be Assembled Today

Yama and Ami will be with me.

I still can't help but worry...

You're not already asleep are you??

Let's go all-out with this shrine visit!!

Yama

I can't believe you took a dumb job like this on New Year's Eve...!

If you know all the little tricks, end-of-year cleaning is lucrative work.

Still...

Why does this dog have its own mansion?!

- Man, it's huge! - Isn't it, though?

Whoa! No way! A heated floor?!

Seriously?!

I'm so jealous!

Hello! Delivery God Yato, at your service 365 days a year!

Yato.

Oh, Hiyori!

- What's up? - Hmm?

Umm, would you like to visit the Yushima Tenjin shrine tonight

for the first shrine visit of the new year?

- Huh?! - Huh?!

Why do you hafta visit that old geezer?

You should visit me!

- Well, I have big exams coming up... - Plus you don't even got a shrine.

Then I'll use your part time wages to buy one!

What are you, a pimp god?!

There will be lots of food stalls and stuff there, you know.

- Food stalls?! - We'll be there!

I want some candied fruit!

See you soon, then!

Let's go all-out with this shrine visit!!

All-out, huh...

Now don't run, okay?

You don't want it to come loose on you.

Okay.

Turn this way.

You look lovely!

Well, I'm off.

So that's the half-Phantom that deludes Yato?

Yes.

Let's slay her, Reiki.

Wait.

What is it?

She can still be of use.

"Noragami"

Hiyori!

'Abby new year...

What happened to going all-out?!

We are! I'm offering a ton of money this year!

Besides the test, we're gonna be starting at a new school, y'know?

- Grant me popularity! - Simmer down, dummy.

Seriously, it's a sure bet our whole class will move on to the next grade.

I'm not as thrilled as Hiyori is, at least.

I am not thrilled!

S-Say, someone might join us later.

- I hope you don't mind. - A m-man?! Is that why you're dressed up?!

Hmm! So you're scheming to win his heart

by saying, "I'm a totally different person this year!"

N-No! It's not like that!

You got serious drive, going full-blast just as the new year starts!

Seriously, it's not like that!

Sheesh! Quit it!

"5 yen"

Popularity! Popularity! Popularity! Gimme popularity!

Please let me move to the next grade without any trouble.

Until now, I used to visit shrines "just because," but...

Please let me continue to have fun with all my friends.

Octopus Dumplings

- I want some octopus dumplings! - Looks yummy!

Hey, Hiyori. You gonna buy some too?

Oh. Yeah.

Yato! Wait!

Hiyori! Hey, Hiyori!

Hiyori!

Her first snooze attack of the year.

Aww, man.

We missed ringing in the new year all 'cause you had to drag your feet!

It's not my fault!

I gotta clean every last bit of mold and grime I see!

I hope Hiyori hasn't gotten sick of waiting for us...

A text message?

Another regular Phantom-slaying job...

Wait, it says it shows up right around here, actually...

Come, Sekki!

You who would desecrate this land of the rising sun!

With my advent, I, the Yato god...

...lay waste with the Sekki...

...and expel thy vast defilement!

Rend!

Mm! Nicely done!

Thanks.

Huh?! There's still this many?!

Calm down, Yukine! It'll be okay!

You've changed, Yukine.

And you're going to change even more!

Believe in your new self!

Now show me, Yato god,

the power of the Regalia you have tempered.

Yato?

Where are you?

I don't smell him.

Nora...

H-Hello.

Say, have you seen Yato?

I thought he came this way, but...

Huh? Is that...

Could you not speak so casually to me, lowly Phantom?

Huh?

When did I...?!

You played a big part in his ablution.

You were watching?

That was such the perfect time to revoke his name, too.

Huh?!

Wait...!

You're fleet of foot, I see.

Go for her Cord.

But try not to accidentally bite it off.

Why are you attacking me?!

Why?

Because I don't like you.

There's no end to these things!

Yeah, they really are persistent!

They disappeared...

It's too bad.

I guess that's it for my Masked Ones...

Were you scared?

Something even scarier is about to happen, though.

Huh?

A god of calamity known as Rabo has woken.

Rabo...

"Lord Rabo, Lord Rabo! I beg of you!"

You mean...?

If someone wishes for it, Rabo can easily kill a Phantom...

...or a person...

...or a god.

Rabo, a blood-soaked, aberrant god of calamity from the Far Shore...

...has come to kill Yato.

Huh?!

B-But Yato also has Yukine with him.

Yato has grown weak after meeting you.

So, please...

Stop existing.

Over here! Come get me!

Looks like you've rounded them all up!

All right...

Show me the power your ragged heart has deep down.

The heart that demolished the school windows...

- ...and hurt all it touched! - Stop!

Let's take 'em all out, Yukine!

You who would desecrate this land of the rising sun!

With my advent, I, the Yato god...

...lay waste with the Sekki...

...and expel thy vast defilement!

Rend!

That's all of 'em, Yukine.

- Now let's hurry to Hiyori! - Yeah!

Candied fruit! Candied fruit!

10 candied fruits using Hiyori's money!

That's asking for too much!

That's...

That's the Yato god's strength now?

Now don't zonk out on your way home!

I'll be careful.

Hiyori!

Happy New Year, Hiyori!

H.N.Y.!

Whoa, what? You're going home already?

The food stalls are still open! Let's go!

It'll be your first food offering of the year!

Oh, maybe your first money offering of the year could come before that?

Huh?

Umm...

What is it, Hiyori?

Who are you?

No matter what happens, I promise

that I'll call your name

Ah

You have a jagged-edged heart

You hurt everything that you touch

and you glare at everything in the world

That look in your eyes says, "Here I am!"

Someone laughed

and that's why you put up that border line

In which case, I'll hold your hand

and take you with me

If you can't say it, just hold my hand tightly and don't let go

I want you to know

you're not alone anymore

What's wrong, Veena? Have you caught a cold...?!

Actually, it looks like you're sneezing too, Kazuma.

On the next Noragami: "Abandoned God."

Huh? These hairballs...

Oh, Kuraha must be shedding.
