Although Hiyori was upset that Yato has contempt for those wanting to die, she realizes it is because he is angry that they do not value the simple blessing of being alive; he is unwilling to let suicide happen in front of Yukine or any Regalia, as they are the spirits of dead humans who wanted to live. |||
