Inugami telling that Kabane is a hybrid.

Gramps Tasaburo explains what the phantasm calculus is and tells that he is willing to lend that calculus to a strong boy unlike Kabane who was easily attacked by Gramps Tasaburo. Iyo arrives at the scene and tears up with the sight of Kabane being unconscious, telling that he hates Gramps Tasaburo for killing him evenn though Kabane is a creepy boy. Gramps Tasaburo tries to tell Iyo that she was mistaken. He then turns his attention to Zenkichi and scolds him for letting Iyo see the violence. Zenkichi humbly apologizes and defends that Iyo is next in line to become their leader and necessary that Iyo becomes desensitized to violence. Inugami however tells them that Kabane is fine as he is a hybid which left the rest shocked.

Shortly after, Kabane wakes up and returns back to normal. Iyo is shocked to see a Khoular to which Zenkichi tells her that Khoulars are not native to Japan. Kabane once again attacks Gramps Tasaburo but is easily defeated. Gramps Tasaburo then proposes a new challenge to Kabane, seeing that he is a Khoular, which is that Kabane can challenge him many times to steal the calculus but it should be one death per day only.
