Being possessed causes him to fall ill, and while spending the start of his high school life repeatedly making trips to the nurse's office, he comes across the contact information of the Mononokean, which specializes in exorcising yokai, and decides to call them. When Ashiya finally visits the Mononokean, he meets the morose master Abeno Haruitsuki.
2. The Ant2016-07-0524mWhen Ashiya begins working part time at the Mononokean, the master Abeno impresses upon him that he should pretend not to see any yokai other than the Mononokean's clients.

Based on their surprising strength and numbers, Abeno believes there must be a powerful demon serving as their leader.

But before he has the chance to enjoy his new life, he's instructed to go to a certain temple alone to find and return a yokai's lost possession.

Unable to defy the Legislator's rules, Abeno is forced to pay a visit to him with Ashiya in tow. As Abeno hired Ashiya without informing the Legislator, he now seeks to determine for himself if Ashiya is truly worthy of being an employee of the Mononokean. What will the Legislator conclude?
6. The Ring2016-08-0224mAbeno is hired by a certain yokai to find a human woman's missing ring and return it to her. Unable to find the ring on his own, he gets Ashiya to help him look for it.

The girl who hired him is unable to see yokai but is interested in the occult and seems very interested in their work.

10. The Fool2016-08-3024mWhen Ashiya and Abeno smell a yokai on the potatoes Yahiko has been sneaking, they head to the farm where they were grown. There they encounter a yokai calling himself Nobou.

12. The Separation2016-09-1324mAbeno visits the Legislator to inform him that Ashiya is no longer working for the Mononokean.

Meanwhile, Ashiya stops by the Kiyakudo when he hears from Shizuku, where he runs into the yokai Big Boss Scree, a yokai he previously exorcised, and his children. When they hear that Ashiya is in trouble...?
13. The End2016-09-2024mReunited with the yokai he and Ashiya exorcised together, Abeno realizes the Mononokean still needs Ashiya. Abeno suddenly misses him, and with the help of the yokai, he decides to give his idea a try.
