Opening text: The request this time is… to guess the true nature of the youth who appeared from the box given by the university professor!
Page 01
W: … Can I ask questions?
H: You cannot tell simply by looking at me, you mean?
W: I’m still not that good yet.
H: Then, by the basis of your name, I will allow four questions.
(TN: The person’s language is quite formal/old, even though I’m not translating it in that way.)
Page 02
W: Is it something used in daily life?
H: No.
Once placed, it shall not be touched.
W: Is it something used in magic?
(TN: Magic, spells. Whatever you want to call the ‘powers’ in holic)
H: Yes.
It is not used for ill purposes, but for praying.
W: How so?
H: To prevent disasters and protect one’s family.

W: The colors of these floating banners include
Green. Red. Yellow. White. Black.
Are the colors related?
H: Yes.
The five colors together make the true appearance.
W: …
H: Answer.
Page 04
W: Then lastly, let me ask another one.
H: I cannot allow that, as you have asked four questions already.
W: If we are basing it on the numbers in my name, after four questions, there is one more.
After all, my last name is ‘April’ ‘first’.
H: Only for this time then.
W: Thank you very much.

W: Is the place you are supposed to be
One in which light does not reach?
H: Yes.
The place where I stay is one where light does not reach.
Answer quickly, one whose fake name is Watanuki.
Page 06
W: You should be a ‘heigushi’, right?
(TN: If anyone has a better translation of that word, I’d appreciate knowing it.)
Page 07
D: Watanuki?
Page 08
W: … It said… I was correct.
D: So, it is a heigushi?
W: Because it was disassembled, so the professor not recognizing it is understandable.
Page 09
W: Originally
It should have been like this, as its name suggests, connecting everything through the middle.
Heigushi is an ornament placed on the central beam of a building on its completion ceremony.
(TN: There’s a background on the ceremony mentioned here. Basically, from what I gathered, it’s the day when the central beam of the house is placed onto the house properly. Which should mean that the house is now complete, thus the way I translated it.)
It is to pray for happiness and avert disaster for the family who will live in the house.
It has many different appearances, as well as different names by which it is known. But most of them have five-colored streamers. This stems from the ‘five phases’ way of thinking.

D: Wood is green. Fire is red. Earth is yellow. Metal is white. Water is black. The colors are used to represent them as such, right?
W: Yes.
It was fortunate that these papers were here. It was a big help.
Besides, if it is ‘placed in a location where light does not reach’, then it must have been that.
D: If the correct answer wasn’t guessed, I wonder what would have happened.
W: Looks like this was a heigushi for a building with a lot of history.
Moreover, it was carefully treated by the people there.
Otherwise, it would not have come with a human appearance to speak with me.
Page 11
W: Ah. Whether it can stay here like this now is a problem.
D: It wasn’t discussed beforehand? If so, what would have happened if you didn’t guess correctly?
W: If it was discussed, and made the other party upset, then I wouldn’t have been able to ask questions.
It would have been impossible to guess without hints.
Ah. This can be thought of as just tactics.
We now know what it is.
But like I said before, this heigushi cannot be treated like a dead thing.
Page 12
D: Tsukumogami?
(TN: spirits that originate from items that have reached its 100th birthday and thus become alive and aware)
W: Putting it like that isn’t wrong.
Heigushi seemed to ‘want to be at the place where it is supposed to be’.
That is to say…
D: It wants to exist as a heigushi.
W: That’s right.
Page 13
D: Does it want to be placed on the beam of a building?
W: But if it isn’t a suitable building for it, it wouldn’t agree either.
D: …
…How about a temple?
W: Hmm?
D: A familiar acquaintance’s temple’s main hall is being renovated right now.
How would the beam there do?
W: Is it a good temple?
D: Mm. It has some history, and the priest is a good person as well.
Page 15
W: … ‘Yes’, right?
There won’t be any problems with the professor?
D: Let me explain it to him. He should understand.
What about the price?
W: Mm…
Page 16
W: You can bring some liquor to that temple’s completion ceremony, as a congratulatory gift.
Then, bring some of the same liquor here.
D: Alright.
W: This means that the request has been completed, right?
D: Mm.
W: Then let’s keep drinking.
Eh?
Page 17
W: You want to drink even though it’s not the completion ceremony?
That really is an amazing alcohol tolerance.
Doumeki, you’ll have to prepare some good liquor for the ceremony.
Page 18
W: I need to go get another cup, and some more liquor. This isn’t enough for three people.
D: There’s the liquor I brought today.
W: It would be good if it hasn’t been opened by Mokona yet.
…
D: What?
W: … Do you have plans to renovate your temple?
Page 19
D: No.
W: Calling it a temple, it might as well be a residence…
D: There aren’t any plans.
W: … Ah, nevermind.
It doesn’t need to be done immediately.
Talking about it now is still too early.
Page 20
W: I have now seen a heigushi with history. When the time comes, I will make it for you.
D: … Mm.
W: The object that protects the home
And the family that lives in it.
Ending text: A friend’s ‘home and the family that lives in it’… The thing that Watanuki truly wants to protect is…

Even if you have a dissenting opinion, your voice still adds to the discussion when you give your opinion so thoughtfully and ardently.
