I've had all I can take...

I've brought you all here for one reason!

To smoke out the traitor in our midst!

When it happened,

it appeared to me that Master Tatsuma was controlling the flames.

Surely Master Tatsuma wasn't behind—

Besides, isn't the fact that he hasn't come to this inquiry all the proof we need?

First thing tomorrow, I'm gonna climb Kongo-Shinzan and get the truth out of Dad!

Juzo?

Good work today, sir.

Yeah.

We heard there was a meeting of the Myoda leadership today.

Has something happened?

No, are there rumors going around?

Well...

Just that the director put out an emergency summons

to all Deep Keep security senior exorcists, so we thought there might be a meeting.

- An emergency summons? - Yes.

Why?

Well, I have no idea, but it is okay to leave the Deep Keep's defenses so thin?

You have a point.

I'll ask the director about it.

Thank you.

The key to the field office?

Why would he suddenly need to go to there?

Hey! Are you okay?

What's going on here, Juzo?

Episode 4: Act of Treachery

Stay calm...

If I stay calm and think about it, I've been too focused on lighting the candle.

That's why I set the whole candle on fire!

What I really want to burn... is this part here!

This part

Which means all I need is a small flame.

Just enough to give it a little flick...

I did it.

I did it!

You sure did!

I did it!

How do you like that, Shura? I lit 'em! I lit 'em with style!

Yeah, you sure did.

I guess you're finally at the starting line now.

You mean I haven't even started yet?

You have to have perfect command over your flames.

If you flame up and lose control again, you'll be put down as an exorcism target.

Let's get straight to the point... Is that demon there the son of Satan?

That is correct. It is far too late for excuses.

Then what was your purpose for secretly having him raised under Shiro Fujimoto's care?

In order to turn him into a weapon for fighting Satan.

Everyone gathered here today!

May I propose a wager?

On whether this spawn of Satan will become the demon king of Gehenna,

or if he will be the savior of the Order! No, of all Assiah! Place your bets!

- Preposterous! - You've lost your mind!

Arrest Mephisto at once!

We will now vote to decide whether to accept the wager put forth by Mephisto Pheles.

First, he must pass the Exorcist Authorization Exam six months from now.

And, if he should be declared a threat to Assiah,

you will remand him to be executed immediately as an exorcism target.

Dammit... Yeah, I've still got a ways to go.

But this is one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind!

What are you yammering about? Maybe you should calm down first.

What are you doing there...

Mamushi?

Did he say Mamushi?

Just as I thought, you were the traitor.

It was also you who rigged the invocation fire.

I thought you were acting suspiciously at the inquiry meeting.

Still, even though I never liked you,

I thought that you loved Myoda more than anyone else.

So why?

Say something!

I did it to open Myoda's eyes.

To show them that the real traitor is...

...Tatsuma Suguro!

Him, and Japan Branch Preceptor Mephisto Pheles.

Mephisto?

Mephisto? What are you talking about?

It was eight years ago, shortly after we began exorcism cram school.

Mr. Todo took me into his confidence.

- Ms. Hojo. - Sir?

I ask that you keep this between us,

but do you know of something called the Left Eye of the Impure King?

The Left Eye of the Impure King is being held in the Deep Keep

as the personal property of Preceptor Mephisto Pheles.

Apparently, a Right Eye also exists.

It's all rather mysterious, though.

Since you belong to the Myoda Sect, which defeated the Impure King,

I was wondering if you knew anything.

Left Eye?

S-Such a thing exists?

Wh-What do you mean?

Nothing...

Well, the truth is...

Mr. Todo had long harbored suspicions regarding Mephisto's behavior.

He said he wanted to expose his corruption.

Corruption?

He figured out that even Tatsuma Suguro was involved.

And so, I decided to assist Mr. Todo and have learned all I could these past years.

I was unable to uncover anything definitive, but a week ago,

I obtained fairly reliable information regarding Mephisto's disciplinary hearing at the Vatican.

It said that Mephisto had secretly spared Satan's spawn and raised him!

What did you say?

And that Myoda's main object of worship has been used to help him do it!

You understand what that means, I take it?

It means that Tatsuma Suguro helped Mephisto to perpetrate this fraud!

Just as Mr. Todo suspected!

Prove it!

As if there'd be any proof here! But everyone will know eventually!

Our superiors can no longer be trusted!

Mr. Todo will seal both the Right and Left Eyes somewhere safe!

Stop this, Mamushi! Don't act on your own!

At least make your accusations openly in front of everyone!

Our superiors are fools who still don't suspect Tatsuma,

the man who sold Myoda out to the Order of the True Cross!

Even Father is no different!

What would you have me say to the likes of them?

And the Shima family is the worst of the lot!

No matter what I say, they'd just tell me I'm overthinking things!

And there's no time for that!

It's begun sooner than I expected,

Master.

I've heard enough.

In that case, I'll have the senior exorcists standing by take her into custody.

Is that okay, Uwabami?

Mamushi is a grown woman.

It's fine.

Are you serious, Mamushi?

I don't need your approval.

All that I do, I do to save Myoda!

In that case, out of the friendship we once shared,

I'll be the one to stop you!

Stop this, Mamushi! Juzo!

You two don't need to fight!

What's going on? Everything's shaking!

Over there!

Something must've happened at the field office.

Rin, stay here.

Grr!

- Ow! - Hey! No running off!

Don't forget what they decided at the disciplinary hearing!

I get it!

You sure as hell don't!

Ow ow ow ow ow!

Still...

Oh, well... Come with me!

This shaking in no earthquake!

It's an intruder! Get to the Deep Keep!

Hey! What happened?

There's an emergency in the Deep Keep!

What the hell is that?

The ceiling, it's rotting away!

Mamushi!

Hello there, Mr. Shima.

So good to see you again.

Todo!

You weasel!

What's your reason for tricking Mamushi?

A weasel, eh?

I like it! This time, however, I am merely assisting Ms. Hojo.

It's as he says!

Mr. Todo has nothing to do with this!

You're... being tricked!

Can't you see that you're being completely deceived by Todo, Mamushi!

Don't! What are you doing?

Stop!

The only ones being deceived... are all of you!

I can't believe it, the traitor...

...was Mamushi?

Where did they vanish to?

Quiet down! Everyone, calm yourselves! We need to regroup!

Long time no see, Dad.

Ryuji! I-It's been a while!

That's quite a cockscomb you have there!

Where are you going?

I'd love to stay and chat, but I have to get after Mamushi.

Would you mind letting go?

Go after Mamushi?

All in all, the reason she betrayed us, the reason we're in this mess,

all of it is your fault!

What were you doing instead of attending the meeting?

Suguro!

Who's that?

Suguro's dad.

Start talking, Dad. Did you betray us like Mamushi said?

O-Of course not!

If that's true, say what's really going on right here in front of everyone!

What's really going on...

It's a secret.

I can't tell this secret to anyone. Not even to my own son.

How can you say that after what just happened?

Anyway, I must go after Mamushi right away.

Ryuji, do as your mom and teachers say and stay out of trouble.

Got it?

Don't pull the dad act on me!

Don't try to act like a dad only when it suits you!

If you're gonna take off without explaining yourself,

then you're not my father... You're nobody to me!

Give me a break! You're not my father - you're nobody to me!

Don't ever let me see you trying to act like my father again!

That boy... is my son. And I'm taking him back!

Dad!

Look, I have to go.

Be patient, all right?

Wait.

Hey! When did he—

- O-Okumura! - Why are you walking away?

- You're his dad, aren't you? - Rin?

Is this okay with you? Well, is it?

And you, Suguro!

Don't be such an—

- Bon! - Rin!

Bon! Are you all right?

Bon!

W-Was there a flash of light just now?

I don't know what went down between you two,

but let me tell you that you're both gonna regret this later!

Listen up! Apologize to your dad! While you still can!

This is none of your business! Stay out of this!

Don't write off your old man so easily!

You're one to talk!

Now, now. Rin, Ryuji. Why not patch things up here, okay?

Go wherever you want, but just go away!

And never come back!

- I used to think you were cool! - Rin!

Man, was I wrong about you, Suguro!

What's that?

What's happening to him?

Blue flame?

It can't be!

Excuse me, coming through. That's enough, Rin!

It ain't like...

Damn it, Rin! Down, boy!

It ain't like...

I want to be Satan's son!

But it's different with you!

Tell me I'm wrong!

Apologize to your dad! It'll be too late when he's dead!

Don't make the same mistake I did!

Apologize to him right now!

Bon!

Juzo!

I'm sorry to cut in. But please get away.

Mephisto had secretly spared Satan's spawn and raised him.

This boy, he's...

Renzo's friend is...

Can it really be true?

Rin, calm down.

Have you forgotten the conditions they laid out at the hearing?

If you flare up again, you'll be designated an exorcism target and put down.

Right now...

I'm having an important conversation!

Stay out of it! Hag!

Hag?

What in the world?

Rin? Rin!

Dumbass.

Hey. Can somebody gimme a hand putting this idiot in isolation?

He's out cold, so it's okay now!

Commander Kirigakure.

Director! I'm ever so sorry for making such a scene!

I assume I will receive an explanation for this later?

Yes! Of course!

Rin!

Rin!

Next Time

Episode 5: Mysterious Connections

Perhaps it was too much for you to bear.

Give my best to Rin, okay?

An even more potent miasma...

I don't believe it, Todo's objective is to—

Everybody saw it when he flared up.

That idiot!

Watch over me, Fujimoto!
