Grandma only replied by nodding her head with a smile, and in a state of standing on the guardrail.
However, before he managed to jump down from the top of that balcony ...
"Auntie!" Nori-san ran towards grandma, then pulled her shirt from behind until it made her fall to the floor.
"I thought this was going to happen .. I expected it!" Hugged grandma tight.
The woman who once looked beautiful, now her face turned into a very cruel and terrible. He looked very angry and shouted, "Bad people! How dare you ... How dare you! die!" The demon approached, briefly attacking the two of them.
Immediately, Nori-san took out her parchment talisman and threw the salt towards the demon's face. "Cursed be you, demon!" his yell.
The talisman shown by Nori-san, as well as the salt that hit his face, made the demon overheat as if it was burning. She screamed in pain, then flew away and disappeared from view.
"Thank God .. thank goodness ...," Hugged the faint-looking grandmother.
CRING..
CRING..
CRING..
Nori-san's phone suddenly rang, showing an incoming call from an unknown number. He also answered the call.
"Nori-san ... What happened? What about grandma?" ask someone on the phone who turns out to be Yuki.
"He's fine. She ... is with me right now," he replied.
Yuki's leaning against the wall. "Huufft .. thank goodness, grandma ...."

That night, Nori-san managed to save Nadeshiko's grandmother from the death that approached her.
Yuki, who already knew her grandmother's situation, became a little calmer.
Yoshino-san asks if she should take Yuki to the hospital or not. But Nori-san said that it was best for Yuki to remain at the temple until tomorrow morning.
"Then ... What about you, Nori-san?" ask Yuki.
"I'll stay here to look after your grandmother. Come here tomorrow morning, okay?" nori-san.
"Yasudah .. I understand," he replied.
That night, they all could not fall asleep, and decided to sit waiting until the sun rose. Yuki also ends up dispelling Jack's curiosity by telling him everything that happened to him.
"Now you're starting to believe, aren't you?" ask Yuki.
"Yes yes ... Consider it that way," he replied.
Although Jack had listened to all of Yuki's explanations, he still did not feel satisfied with all of the stories.

The next day, they all went to the hospital to meet Nadeshiko and Nori-san's grandmother on the 20th floor.
When they got there, Yuki ran and hugged her grandmother who was still lying on her bed.
At the same time, Nori-san talked to Dr. Kobayashi about last night. He asked the doctor for permission to allow them to put up some amulet sheets of paper in every corner of the walls and doors of the room where Nadeshiko's grandmother was treated.
Dr. Kobayashi allowed it without any objection.
Nori-san stood up from her seat. "Thank you, sir. At least .. until my aunt recovers from her illness."
"I understand, Mom. Because I am also from the countryside. Both my parents are also villagers, and they often tell me about the legends of the community that circulate there. So .. This is not the first time I have heard of a case like this" said Dr. Kobayashi.
"Thank you once again. I really appreciate your decision. Then ... I beg you to say goodbye," said Nori-san, lowering her head and stepping out towards the grandmother's room.
That same morning, Yuki, Jack, Nori-san and Yoshino-san put up all the amulet papers they had on every corner of the walls, windows and back doors. Nori-san also gave an amulet in the form of a parchment necklace to grandma to wear.
After all the amulet papers were taped and hung up, they asked grandma what happened to her last night.
Grandma told them everything.
" ... He came to me in the likeness of my mother. She also said that ... if I follow her, she will take me to meet matsu and Izumi, I ..," explained the grandmother with tears that began to linger on her cheeks.
Nori-san who walked towards the balcony, then followed by Yuki, Jack and Yoshino-san from behind.
"Nori-san ... is there any way to end this?" ask Yuki.
"The only way is to seal him forever. But .. I don't know how. Kotaro sensei didn't even teach us his seal spell. Only the great monks know the mantra" Nori-san replied.
"What about you, Yoshino-san?" yuki's lyrics towards him.
"Of course .. I'm not sure," he replied, shaking his head.
Yuki sighed. "Huuufft .. if only the old man had lived ...."
"Wait a long time ..," Yoshino-san said, "Nori-san, does Takamura-sama still live in Kaze village?" tanyakanya.
Nori-san's face looked surprised, as if she had just remembered something. "Yes .. how could I not think of that. We can ask Takamura-sama for help!" abugn.
"Who do you mean?" ask Yuki.
The two of them explained everything to Yuki about who Takamura-sama was.
Nori-san said that Takamura-sama was one of the great monks involved in sealing Naku Josei with Kotaro sensei about sixty-six years ago.
"Takamura-sama is the only person still alive today among all the monks involved in the sealing event. So ... maybe he can help us," explained Nori-san.
"Then ...What are you waiting for? Let's go!" said the excited Yuki.
They agreed, and decided to go to Kaze village to meet a great monk named Takamura.
Yuki walked over to Aoi. "This .. wear it around your neck. You need it more than I do" he said, giving her a parchment necklace.
Before they leave, Nori-san asks Aunt Miyako to stay at the hospital with Aoi to look after Nadeshiko's grandmother. While they all returned to the Sora temple to prepare the items.
Upon arriving at the temple, Jack asks Yuki about their next plan. Yuki explained everything to Jack, but Jack objected to it. He asks Yuki not to deal with the matter anymore, and invites her to return to America.
Of course Yuki rejected her, as she was also involved in the matter.
"I have to finish this, Jack! The lives of everyone involved are at stake! If you're not happy with my decision, you can go home alone to America!" yuki firmly.
"But- "
"Jack! Are you coming or not?" Yuki stared hard.
"Alright ... alright! I'm coming!" jack replied with a forced tone.
On the other hand, Yoshino-san looks as if he is preparing his belongings in a room.
Tomo-san walks up to him and asks about where he and the others are going.
Yoshino-san explained everything.
"We will meet Takamura-sama and ask for help from him. Surely he knows how to seal Naku Josei. You know that, right?"
"It won't work!" tomo-san replied in a high tone.
Yoshino-san stared hard. "What do you mean?"
Tomo-san suddenly looks groggy. He walked out of the room without answering anything.
"Basic ... strange person," Yoshino-san muttered as she walked out towards the car park.
Out there, Nori-san, Yuki and Jack had gathered, as well as some monks who were about to greet and pray to them.
"Let's go now." Nori-san walks into her car.
"May God be with and protect you all along the way" one monk told them.
At 11:30 AM, that afternoon. The gate was opened, and they began their journey to Kaze's village. While inside the temple, Tomo-san stared intently at those who had already left.
