As the battle for Karasumori and the Shadow Organization rages on, Yoshimori may have no choice but to fight side by side with his absentee mother. Can he trust her...? Then, the witch Kakeru returns to unleash magic powerful enough to destroy the entire world

Meanwhile, Masamori begins his bid to take back the Shadow Organization and Tokine sets off for a private meeting with...a guardian deity?
