The mystery of why the Ten Guardians only number nine individuals is investigated…with mixed results. The search for a spy in the castle ends in…confusion. But at least the story of Demon Cleric's transformation into a gentler, kinder demon is clarified. Plus, hypnosis, hot pot, and Midnight's hound!
