Kekkaishi: Volume 21

by Yellow Tanabe, 202 pages

Another being has arrived and threatened the Karasumori mystical site, but this is no ayakashi--it's another site's guardian deity...which are illegal to destroy. How are Yoshimori and Tokine supposed to protect their charge, and one another, if they can't fight back effectively against their attacker? And what will be the consequences if they choose to break the law in self defense?

The poor kids try to prevail with only olive branches, but the recent attacks on mystical sites have been messing with the souls of their deities, too, spinning things out of control and subverting the natural order. The defenders do what they have to do, but no one, including them, is happy about it. With the danger, and its consequences, hitting so close to home, the need to discover who or what really lies at the root of all the troubles is even greater.
