Minamoto: There wasn't a single fish in the neighbor's pond!

Minamoto: Mosquitos could hatch there like crazy!

Shiho: Eh?
Minamoto: In other words, there's no way the neighbor didn't put any fish in!

Shiho: Let me see!!

Kaoru: I'm fine.
Kaoru: The optical camouflage was broken, but that's all!
Kaoru: What about the prediction!?
Minamoto: I'm checking now...

Minamoto: Success!!
SFX: Jingle
Minamoto: We overturned the prediction!!
Top: Current Prediction Change Value
Bottom: Verdict: Within Safe Bounds

Aoi: Thank goodness!
Aoi: But what happened!?
Aoi: Why was Inugami-han...?

SFX: Gyuhhn
Kaoru: And who's this other guy?

11

Kaoru: The neighbor...!?

Inugami: ...Sorry!
Inugami: I guess I caused you all a lot of trouble!

12

Yadorigi: Honestly!
Yadorigi: So all that about hating your powers...
Yadorigi: was just you holding back!?
Inugami: Shut up!!
Keiko: Um...
Keiko: I have no idea what's going on...

Minamoto: Inugami-san was...
Minamoto: living a life of denying tradition and his psychic powers...
Minamoto: but this caused quite a bit of stress.
Minamoto: This would occasionally cause a private rampage.

Minamoto: He would attack the fish in the neighbor's pond.
Minamoto: Most likely, the neighbor did not know this...
Minamoto: and merely thought it was some kind of wild animal.
Minamoto: If he had known, he would likely have called the police.

13

Minamoto: Basically, he exploded from pent up stress as well.
Minamoto: BABEL HQ has him a list of inactive espers...
Minamoto: who have latent abilities that have not activated.

Minamoto: I've seen him on the list once before...
Minamoto: yet I didn't realize it immediately! I can't believe it!
Aoi: Um...
Aoi: There are a lot of people on this list.
Shiho: You can remember from seeing the list once?

Inugami: Is he okay?
Minamoto: He was taken to one of our medical facilities, but his injuries were light.
Minamoto: After letting out his pent up stress, his powers have returned to being inactive.

Keiko: The predicted incident...
Keiko: was about Inugami-san being killed due to this, right?

Hatsune: But...
Hatsune: why were you holding back your powers, dad?

Inugami: Well...

14

Inugami: I think...
Inugami: Yadorigi would be better off not running this place.

Yadorigi: You...
Yadorigi: did it for me...?

Inugami: When I was called from the branch family because there was no one in the head family to take over...
Inugami: there was no esper in the Yadorigi family who could be my partner.
Inugami: He's the one they found after doing some searching.

Inugami: But he was chasing a different dream in Tokyo.
Inugami: He shouldn't have been dragged back here for the sake of tradition!
Yadorigi: I told you to quit with that!!

Inugami: Well, I won't!!
Inugami: Because...

15

Inugami: The manga you draw are really good!
Inugami: Although I don't really understand it!!

Yadorigi: Stooooopppp!!!
Yadorigi: I quit because it wasn't selling!!
Inugami: Why!? What a waste!!
Inugami: Don't give up on your dream!!

Yadorigi: You showed that to my wife and son, didn't you!?
Yadorigi: I'll kill you!!
Text: And that's the one I most want to forget!!
Inugami: Nyaahhh!?
Hatsune: Dad!!
Akira: Stop it, father!!

16

SFX: Horn

Keiko: In the end...
Keiko: those two were actually an excellent combo.
Minamoto: I guess you could say it was fate.

Minamoto: But anyway, I'm glad this mission is over.
Minamoto: And we managed to overturn yet another prediction.

Kaoru: But we just barely managed this time.
Aoi: Didn't you make way too many mistakes this time?
Minamoto: Uuh...

17

Minamoto: That's because...
Minamoto: um...
Minamoto: there were some unforeseen uncertain elements!

Kaoru: Like?
Minamoto: Well, for one...
Minamoto: I mistakenly thought of you as children who could stay in the same room as-...

18

Minamoto: I-
Minamoto: I have no obligation to explain it!
SFX: Zzz

Kaoru: Eh?
Kaoru: C'mon!!
Minamoto: Shut up!!
SFX: Kachunk kachunk

Mothers: Let's sell the normal Inugami house.
Mothers: Yes, if our children JOIN TOGETHER, that would best.
Yadorigi: Don't put it like that!!
Yadorigi: And like hell I'm gonna live with him!!
Inugami: What was that, you bastard!?

Margin: Every generation of those families gets along. And at any rate, case closed!!!

Box: To be continued in Issue 1 of the new year.
