Episode Title:
The Demon's Tradition.
Episode Description:
Tamaki has been having a recurring yet unclear dream, seeing an altered reflection of herself in a lake in the middle of a forest. At school, Kiyono gets the wrong idea about Tamaki now living with five guys at her house. During lunch on the school roof, Yuuichi informs Tamaki, Takuma, Mahiro and Shinji that Suguru is investigating the Bureau of Medicine. When Tamaki, Takuma, Mahiro, Yuuichi and Shinji return to the shrine, they find out that Suguru invited Ashiya over for a visit. Tamaki wishes that she would awaken her powers as soon as possible, since Ashiya predicts that the Guardians will be killed if the two remaining Artifacts are taken away. Takuma and Mahiro encourage Tamaki to come to the storehouse to continue their research on the history of the Tamayori Princess. Tamaki comes across a book, which explains that the Tamayori Princess sealed the power of an oni, which was defeated in a battle lasting seven days and nights against three other gods, into the Onikirimaru. As Takuma recognizes his bloodline with that of the oni, he feels as if he has a dormant monster inside of him. Tamaki comforts him by assuring that she will drive this monster out of his body when she finally awakens her powers.
