Touge Oni: Primal Gods in Ancient Times Vol. 03
As Miyo is fixed to be a permanent part of the group on their journey to Mount Katsuragi, En properly assumes the role of master and teacher, beginning with the basics of reading and writing. The unfamiliar characters are a struggle, but when another divine instrument forces an unexpected detour, Miyo’s mastery of them — combined with a bold strategy — may be her only hope of rejoining the others!
In the ancient kingdom of Yamato, between the eras of gods and men, there was a time when the two coexisted. Miyo is chosen to serve as a human sacrifice to her village’s god, Kippuuson-no-Mikoto, but she’s not ready to die!
Can Ozuno, a monk with the ability to speak one-on-one with the gods, save her life?
