Suzuha tells Yukine about a human girl who visited him every summer but forgot him each year she returned, as human memories of Far Shore beings are flimsy. Yukine now fears Hiyori will forget him and Yato as she gets older. Kugaha gets Suzuha killed, which puts Bishamon in pain. Noticing that Bishamon has incurred blight, Kazuma gathers her Regalia to find the culprit, but is surprised that they are all untainted. Kugaha ambushes Yato, but Yato defeats him unarmed. Kugaha remarks on Yato's incredible strength, noting that it must be because he has strong ties to the Near Shore - Hiyori. Kugaha plans to destroy Bishamon by breaking her family of Regalia.
