Otogiri, the Soul-Stealing Courtesan, has taken center stage in the battle against a cannibalistic child spirit. Will her assortment of deadly curses be enough to overcome his raw power, or will she become nothing more than food to sate his unending hunger? Worse, even if she does win, will the weakened Keitaro, Yayoi, and Eiko be able to reseal her before she turns her curses on them?

Volume 8 of the Dark Gathering manga series by Kenichi Kondo.
