  24. Girl: When you're done eating,
  25. Girl: You can just put the tray out in the hall.
  26. Girl: We'll be along later to clean up.
  27.  
  28. 6
  29. Susutake: Oh yeah, this village rocks! Thanks for the food!!
  30. Susutake: And for the booze <3
  31. Susutake: Come on, you guys, let's eat!
  32. Toki: Um... but...
  33. Toki: They took Hizame-san and the others to a different room. Do you think they're okay?
  34. Susutake: Yeah, why wouldn't they be okay?
  35. Susutake: The people here have been nothing but nice so far.
  36. SFX: [*huh*]
  37. Susutake: The village chief saw how pathetic and hungry we looked, so he set up up in this sweet room!
  38. Susutake: (This place is great, ain't it?)
  39. Susutake: Okay, it's a little small in here...
  40. Susutake: I bet they gave the better room to the other two!
  41. SFX: [*grrrrrr*]
  42. Kon: But still, they're really going all out for us.
  43.  
  44. 7
  45. Toki: Yeah...
  46. Toki: They even gave us white rice.
  47. Toki: And look at all the side dishes!
  48. Toki: I guess farming villages have good food, huh?
  49. SUsutake: (The sake is good too!)
  50. Toki: ...Do you think it's safe to eat this?
  51. Kon: Hm...
  52. Kon: No matter how you look at it, there's something weird about this town.
  53. Toki: Yeah, what's a human village doing in the middle of demon territory?
  54. Toki: Maybe it's all an illusion...
  55. Toki: Maybe this miso soup is really just muddy water...
  56. SFX: [*sigh*]
  57. Toki: (Isn't there a fairy tale like that?)
  58. Girl: Is everything alright?
  59. SFX: [*open*]
  60. SFX: [*shock*]
  61. Toki: Eeeeeeee!!
  62.  
  63. 8
  64. Girl: Eh?
  65. SFX: [*waaaaah*]
  66. Toki: Uh...
  67. Toki: Everything's great!
  68. Toki: We were just about to start eating!
  69. Girl: Oh, I'm glad.
  70. Girl: I was worried that our humble country food may not be to your tastes.
  71. Girl: But you can be assured that the vegetables and meat from our fields are the very freshest! So please, go ahead.
  72. Toki: Oh...
  73. Toki: Um... thanks.
  74. Girl: Oh, that's right.
  75. Girl: One more thing.
  76. Girl: We have other guests staying here tonight.
  77. Girl: So please, don't leave your room.
  78. Toki: Guests...?
  79. ???: [I've already sent for the exorcist. Everything is ready for tonight.]
  80. Toki: Oh...
  81. Toki: You had something planned for today, then?
  82. Girl: Oh,
  83. Girl: Don't worry, it's nothing important.
  84. SFX: [*laugh*]
  85. Girl: It's just a certain ceremony that must be performed, so we kindly you not to interfere.
  86. Toki: ...
  87.  
  88. 9
  89. Toki: A ceremony...?
  90. Girl: Yes, a wedding.
  91. Girl: In this town, we have a ceremony where the bride is welcomed into her new husband's family.
  92. Girl: But our traditions forbid outsiders from participating.
  93. Old Man: ...So as I was saying, you girls should stay in your room tonight.
  94. Ainzeu: Yes, of course. Thank you.
  95. SFX: [*close*]
  96. Hizame: ......
  97. Ainezu: (*sigh*) Well, we made it.
  98. Ainezu: The locals seem hospitable enough,
  99. Ainezu: But I still feel on edge.
  100. Hizame: As do I.
  101. Ainezu: It's likely that we're being watched.
  102. Hizame: Is that a surprise?
  103. SFX: [*stare*]
  104. SFX: [*gulp gulp*]
  105.  
  106. 10
  107. Ainezu: Hizame-sama!! Why are you eating!?
  108. Hizame: Because it tastes good?
  109. SFX: [*gaaah*]
  110. Ainezu: Stop that!!
  111. Hizame: I've already eaten the flesh of an ayakashi.
  112. Hizame: So I have nothing to worry about.
  113. Hizame: It's not poisoned or anything.
  114. Hizame: Actually, for peasant food,
  115. Hizame: It's quite delicious.
  116. Ainezu: ...So you think this really is just a normal human village?
  117. Hizame: Well,
  118. Hizame: I didn't say that.
  119. Hizame: After all, we followed Kanzou on quite a difficult journey to get here, so I expect that it has some significance.
  120. SFX: [*sip*]
  121. Ainezu: I wonder if Rikugou-san and the others are alright...
  122. Ainezu: We should find them.
  123. Hizame: We can't.
  124. Hizame: On the other side of that door, there are two guards keeping watch.
  125. Ainezu: !
  126.  
  127. 11
  128. Susutake: I've never heard of a wedding that nobody's allowed to see!
  129. Kon: Small towns tend to develop weird customs when they're really isolated.
  130. Toki: Are we really being watched?
  131. Bonten: Yeah.
  132. Bonten: There are two people outside the door.
  133. Bonten: They're probably there to make sure we don't leave.
  134. Toki: I've got a bad feeling about this...
  135. Toki: And I overheard them whispering about an exorcism.
  136. Toki (2 bubbles): They're planning to do something with the Inugami tonight.
  137. ???: [Tonight, we'll get rid of the Dog God once and for all...]
  138. Toki: But then that girl said they were having a wedding...
  139. Toki: Doesn't it all seem weird?
  140. Toki: We should make sure we don't eat anything while we're here...
  141. Susutake: Huh?
  142. Susutake: But I already started eating.
  143. SFX: [*chomp chomp chomp*]
  144.  
  145. 12
  146. Toki: WHY ARE YOU EATING THAT!? ARE YOU CRAZY!?
  147. SFX: [*gaaah*]
  148. SFX: [*sparkle*]
  149. Susutake: But I was hungry! Chill out, man. It tastes good.
  150. Susutake: It's just stir-fry!
  151. Susutake: I wonder what kind of meat this is? It must be mountain whale!
  152. Toki: Mountain whale?
  153. Toki: [What is that...?]
  154. SFX: [*mmm*]
  155. Susutake: It's MEAT! Real meat!
  156. Susutake: In Edo, they think eating animal flesh is unclean, so this is a rare treat!!
  157. (Note: Buddhism officially prohibited eating the meat of most animals, although birds and fish were allowed. Some meat was allowed for celebrations and medicinal purposes. People in rural areas ate whatever protein they could find, though, so animal meat was jokingly called "mountain whale." It would be very unusual to serve red meat to a visitor, which is why they're suspicious.)
  158. Susutake: I wonder if they cooked it for their wedding party?
  159. Susutake: Isn't meat supposed to have medicinal properties?
  160. Toki: Huh?
  161. Kon: Hm... what kind of meat is this?
  162. SFX: [*sniff sniff*]
  163. Kon: It's not deer or wild boar...
  164.  
  165. 13
  166. Bonten: It's dog.
  167. Bonten: It's dog meat.
  168. Toki: !
  169. Susutake: Ooh, dog meat?
  170. Susutake: So that's what dog tastes like.
  171. Toki: What's with that reaction!?
  172.  
  173. 14
  174. Toki: That's man's best friend you're eating!! How can you eat an adorable little puppy!?
  175. Toki: And how can you do it with such a calm face!? Why aren't you freaking out!?
  176. Toki: You monster!!
  177. SFX: [*kyaaaaaaaa*]
  178. Susutake: What's the big deal?
  179. Susutake: As long as it tastes good, I don't care if it's deer or pig or dog or whatever.
  180. Susutake: I don't care if eating meat is against the rules.
  181. Susutake: They say that animals are smart enough to curse you for eating them,
  182. Susutake: But I personally don't think there's any difference between fish and plants and animals. Life is life.
  183. Susutake: And the rules for what meat you can and can't eat are just stupid.
  184. Susutake: It's okay to eat birds, even though there are some really smart birds.
  185. Susutake: It's okay to eat rabbits, because they jump and that's close enough to flying.
  186. Susutake: Eat this, don't eat that...
  187. Susutake: Humans are really self-centered if they think their dumb rules matter.
  188. Susutake: But I do what I want!
  189. Susutake: If something tastes good, I'm gonna eat it!
  190. SFX: [*yeah!*]
  191. Susutake: Being hungry is the only justification I need!
  192. Toki: Wow... I'm kind of impressed. But still kind of grossed out.
  193.  
  194. 15
  195. Bonten: You're both idiots.
  196. Bonten: This isn't the time to be havng an ethical debate.
  197. Bonten: Think about that rumor Rikugou overheard...
  198. Bonten: This is serious.
  199. Bonten: They're going to attack the Inugami tonight.
  200. Bonten: That's probably why they served us dog meat, even though they weren't expecting us.
  201. Toki: I guess if you put it that way...
  202. Kon: I still can't eat it.
  203.  
  204. 16
  205. Toki: [How can you still be eating that...?]
  206. Toki: [Quit it!]
  207. Kon: But if we don't eat it, won't that seem suspicious?
  208. Kon: They said they'd come back to collect the empty dishes.
  209. Susutake: [So we're damned if we do...]
  210. Toki: [And we're damned if we don't.]
  211. SFX: [*shudder shudder*]
  212. Bonten: Relax.
  213. Susutake: Huh?
  214.  
  215. 17
  216. ??? 1: Well?
  217. ??? 1: Are they eating it?
  218. ??? 2: Yes.
  219. ??? 2: And the vegetable dish was drugged.
  220. SFX: [*whisper whisper*]
  221. ??? 2: We mixed some meat in with the men's meal,
  222. ??? 2: And they ate it right up.
  223. SFX: [*whisper whisper*]
  224. ??? 1: What about the windows in the rooms?
  225. ??? 2: They haven't tried to escape through them, and nor have they thrown their food away.
  226. ??? 1: Good.
  227. ??? 1: Then we can begin the ceremony.
  228.  
  229. 18
  230. SFX: [*rumble*]
  231. Toki: I'm so hungry...
  232. SFX: [*whine whine*]
  233. Kon: Don't talk about it. You're making me hungrier.
  234. Kon: Damn it... if we could get out of this stupid room, I'd go sneak us something from the kitchen.
  235. SF:X [*rumble rumble*]
  236. Toki: Bonten~~~~
  237. Bonten: I can still sense them out there.
  238. Bonten: They just changed the guards.
  239. Toki: Argh!
  240. Bonten: Would you quit whining?
  241. Bonten: Can't you survive skipping one meal?
  242. Bonten: (Shut up.)
  243. Kon: One meal!?
  244. SFX: [*shock*]
  245.  
  246. 19
  247. Kon: Don't you know that food is the foundation of happiness!?
  248. Kon: You have to get three square meals a day!!
  249. Kon: A man who can enjoy three meals a day is living the good life!!!
  250. Kon: How can there be happiness in a world without good food!?
  251. SX: [*rawr*]
  252. Toki: !?
  253. Toki: !?
  254. Text: [Read the Volume 14 special pamphlet!]
  255. Toki: [Chill, chill...]
  256. Toki: Hey...
  257. Toki: Why aren't you complaining?
  258. Toki: Aren't you hungry?
  259. Toki: ?
  260. Bonten: ......
  261. Bonten: Not really.
  262. Bonten: And even if I was hungry, so what?
  263. Bonten: I don't have time to waste on food anyway.
  264.  
  265. 20
  266. Toki: Hey, Bonten!
  267. Toki: When this is all over, you've gotta come eat with us!
  268. Toki: Kon's cooking is really good!
  269. Kon: [You're awful serious about this.]
  270. Toki: We can all cook together!
  271. Toki: It will be awesome!
  272. Bonten: ......
  273. Toki: Come on!
  274.  
  275. 21
  276. Susutake: Damn it!! I'm so freaking hungry!!
  277. SFX: [*roar*]
  278. Susutake: Come on, bro! Come on, boss! Come on... other dude! How are you guys not dying over th...
  279. SFX: [*whiiiiine*]
  280. Susutake: Huh?
  281.  
  282. 22
  283. Susutake: What?
  284. SFX: [*whisper whisper*]
  285. Toki: So we're still being watched, right...?
  286. Bonten: I guess that means that they're not all taking part in the ceremony?
  287. Kon: We've got to think of a way to distract them.
  288. Susutake: Hey, I thought you guys were sleeping too?
  289. Susutake: [Did I miss something?]
  290. Toki: They're going to exorcise the Dog God! How am I supposed to sleep!?
  291. Toki: And we still haven't found Kanzou! I can't help but think that all of this is related somehow...
  292. Bonten: And we can't do anything while we're split up like this.
  293. Bonten: For humans, our opponents sure knew what they were doing. And they're probably armed, too...
  294. Kon: [hm...]
  295. Toki: Hey!
  296. Toki: That's right!
  297. Toki: They're just humans!
  298. Toki: Don't worry.
  299. Toki: Just wait.
  300. SFX: [*grin*]
  301. Toki: I have a plan!
  302.  
  303. 23
  304. SFX: [*creak*]
  305. Toki: Ainezu-san...? (*whisper*)
  306. Toki: Hizame-san! (*whisper*)
  307. Ainezu: Eh?
  308. Hizame: Oh my~
  309. Toki: Thank goodness!
  310. Toki: Are you two okay?
  311. Hizame: (*laugh*) We're fine~!
  312. SFX: [*giggle giggle*]
  313. Ainezu: You guys...!
  314. Ainzeu: Did you escape?
  315. SFX: [*gasp*]
  316. Toki: Nope!
  317. Toki: The guards brought us here!
  318. SFX: [*ahaha*]
  319. Ainezu: Eh?
  320. Ainezu: The guards? But why...?
  321. SFX: [*uhh...*]
  322. Toki: [Well, I told them that if I didn't see the doctor for my nightly acupuncture treatment, I'd vomit blood and die, so they let me out...]
  323. SFH: [*hehehe*]
  324. Susutake: These villagers are dumb.
  325. Ainezu: [He's smooth!]
  326. Susutake: I kinda forgot how sneaky this guy is...
  327. Toki: Well, they weren't ayakashi. I can handle humans on my own!
  328. SFX: [*hahahaha*]
  329.  
  330. 24
  331. Bonten: Okay, they're not watching this room right now.
  332. Bonten: Now's our chance.
  333. Toki: Come on!
  334. Ainzeu: Where are we going?
  335. Toki: I overheard them talking...
  336. Toki: They said they'd come here to exorcise the Dog God...
  337. Toki: We've got to stop them!
  338.  
  339. 25
  340. SFX: [*jingle jingle jingle jingle*]
  341. Old Man: Thank you for coming. This way, please.
  342. Old Man: That's right,
  343. Old Man: Just follow me.
  344.  
  345. 26
  346. Toki: Are they here to exorcise the Dog God?
  347. Susutake: Looks like it.
  348. Susutake: Why else would those freaks be here?
  349. Bonten: Are they associates of yours?
  350. Hizame: No...
  351. Hizame: I don't recognize them.
  352. Hizame: However,
  353. Hizame: It's very odd to see exorcists parading through the streets...
  354. Toki: [Something's not right here...]
  355. Toki: I wonder if this supposed to be the village where Shamon-san found Kuchiha... the village where Kuchiha was possessed by the Dog God.
  356. Toki: [It must be a copy of the town where Kanzou and Kuchiha used to live.]
  357. Toki: [That, or we're time traveling...]
  358.  
  359. 27
  360. SFX: [*whoosh*]
  361. Kon: Hey...
  362. Susutake: Oi,
  363. Susutake: Who's that kid?
  364. Toki: Ah...
  365. SFX: [*jingle jingle*]
  366.  
  367. 28
  368. Toki: KUCHI-
  369. Toki: !!
  370. SFX: [*grab*]
  371. Kon: Shut up, you idiot!
  372. Kon: They're going to catch us!!
  373. SFX: [*mumble mumble mumble*]
  374. Susutake: What are they gonna do with that little girl?
  375. Toki: [Kuchiha!!]
