2. Character Developments

• Tsuchimikado Kippei: Resentful and immature, he resists his duty. His emotional instability makes him vulnerable to Eight-Fork's bewitchment. He naively believes he can cooperate with a great demon to change the clan—a fatal miscalculation that leads to his death.
• Eight-Fork: The great demon demonstrates cunning and malice. It uses Kippei's own desires against him, promises cooperation as a lie, and immediately discards him once freed—revealing it only sought liberation.

3. Significant Themes

Author's note: The chapter deliberately subverts expectations—Kippei, seemingly set up as a protagonist, is killed immediately after releasing the demon, emphasizing this story's ruthless stakes.
