Rie: Iori!

Rie: Iori!?

Tanaka: After that, my world went dark.

P6

Rie: You know, I'm thinking about moving. If we aren't as far on the outskirts of the prefecture, there'd be a better school for you...

Rie: Hana said she's alright with transferring too...

P7

Iori: No way that would work

Iori: Whenever I go out, impurities always show up...

Iori: And I can't see anything so I can't even tell whether its a person or an impurity. I don't have powers like you, Mom, either.

Rie:  That's...true. Scary, isn't it?

Rie: If I'm not around, I can't keep you safe...

Iori: Hey...why did Dad make me "mixed up"? Not being able to see and impurities showing up is all because of that in the first place, isn't it?

Rie: ...

P8

Iori: Why...didn't you make Dad's impurity disappear like all the others...?

Rie: I'm sorry...

Rie: that I can't keep you alive in the human world...

Iori: Mom, you never think things all the way through

Iori: That softness...will invite greater misfortune...

P9

Rie: You mean Iori will be able to see?

Satou: Yes, as long as he undergoes training at our company's educational institute and eventually becomes our employee.

Satou: These devices which can cancel out the effects of spiritual injuries were also developed for the sake of our employees.

Satou: If he joins us, your son will be able to live without fear of the impurities.

P10

Rie: (Suspicious...I can't send him to such a strange place...)

Iori: Mom

Iori: I'll go

Rie: Iori...

Iori: Give Hana my regards

P11

Instructor: To deal with cases like this, ....

Tanaka: Although on the surface, it took the form of a "Company", it was an organization better referred to as an "Agency".

Tanaka: The origin was a religious order worshipping the "Spawn" that appeared in Europe in the 1500s. Making connections to various places, it was a large organization that existed across the world.

P12

Tanaka: The job of the employees was to go around and study the impurities in various places...

Tanaka: ...in order to find the "Spawn"

Iori: It's so dirty...

Iori: Can't believe my first job is a trash house...It sure looks like an impurity could--

Iori: A child?

Comic extras during the break:

Extra One

Regarding the Company's Anti-Spawn Technology

-

Isolation Cloth (Level 1)

Also works on other impurities

-

Sword (Level 5)

Incapable of cutting humans

-

Wire (Level 5)

Very difficult to see

-

There was a period during which the Company had captured a Spawn other than "Hikaru", so aside from Anti-Impurity technology, they also have Anti-Spawn technology.

The Spawn in question escaped several hundred years ago, and its whereabouts are unknown.

They endow objects with Anti-Spawn abilities through special techniques, and the objects are divided into levels based on those abilities.

This endowment requires an enormous cost

-

Level 1

Can seal the Spawn's movement

~

Level 5:

Can sever with a single touch

(Unable to destroy it)

Asako: So the Company also does exorcism? of impurities and stuff right? What kind of jobs have you done up til now?

Tanaka: Well...

Tanaka: A real scary guy said he was haunted by an impurity, so when I went to check it out...

(Tanaka: Ah, it's that bracelet you have there)

(??: This?)

Tanaka: He'd been wearing a bracelet made of the bones of someone he murdered. I said, That'll get you cursed alright! Hahaha!

Tanaka: After that, I nearly got killed by that guy. Wahahaha

Asako: (That's no laughing matter...)

Extra Two

'Hikaru'('s real form) is extremely strong

Hikaru: It's 'cause I don't really worry about the lows(?) of physics.
