## Summary

Akira contemplates that the other Kemonoists will be killed with the way things are headed and execute his plan of an operation "Get Along" in order to settle the current problem with his brother and his friends. This what Akira had imagined however he is currently trapped inside a cage made by his brother, Yui.

Meanwhile, Yui fights with Nobimaru. When Akira calls out to Yui which made Yui distracted, Nobimaru gets a chance to approach Yui and touch the nil calculus. However, Nobimaru wasn't able to stand the calculus' power resulting to it injuring his hands. While trying to think on how to retrieve the calculus, Yui comes after him. Suddenly, Kabane shows up in order to help Nobimaru.

Together with Nobimaru, Kabane devises a plan in order to take down Yui. Kabane sets his body on fire and attacks Yui, which melts Yui's ice. Yui covers his body with ice and vows to protect Akira. Meanwhile, Akira still tries to get out from the ice cage. He suddenly realizes that the fog is made of water and tries to use his power to create a large ice that will break the cage he is in.

Kabane and Yui engage in a continuous fight. While in battle, Nobimaru reminds Kabane that his body will fall part if the flames overpowered his regeneration skill. However, Kabane insists for Nobimaru to put him on flames. Kabane manages to fully melt Yui's ice on his body. Just as Kabane is about to blow his second attack, Akira steps in and stops him.

Yui's body starts to break which is a result of the calculus absorbing his life. As Akira tries to remove the calculus from his brother, Akira sees a vision of his brother when they were young. He then realizes that Yui sacrificed himself for him in order to protect him.

Learning what his brother went through, Akira cries and tells his brother they will share happiness and fun from now on. Kabane rushes to Akira's side and tries to help Akira. He spits out the life calculus which combined to the nil calculus.

Just then, Inari interferes and touches the combined calculus. Kohachi Inugami with Shiki also arrive at the scene. Inugami tells Inari to give the calculus back since it belongs to Kabane. Inari proceeds to toss back the combined calculus since it would be useless for her to say if she can't hold of the nil calculus. Before leaving, Kabane offers Nobimaru to come with them in order for Aya to fix his hand. However, Nobimaru refuses saying that it is a result of his own lack of skills and leaves.

They then go to Granny Ohana's hospital in order for Yui to get some rest. Upon finding Kabane, Akira apologizes to Kabane. Yui wakes up and thanks Kabane for saving him. Kabane then interfers and politely asks Yui to tell him something about the nil calculus since he needs leads. Inugami proceeds to tell them about the war between kemonos and human and there other calculus like Kabane's.

Yui recalls the thing he had done and Inugami dismisses it as it happens all the time. Akira then tells Yui for them to be together all the time. In response, Yui apologizes to Akira. The group then poses for a photo.

Meanwhile, Kon encounters Nobimaru in front of her. Kon becomes alert and cautious around him. However, Nobimaru tells Kon that Inari has a special mission for her which made Kon delighted. Nobimaru then gives the orders which is to persuade Kabane and retrieve the kemono calculi.

Kabane, Akira, and Shiki go to Mihai's room to get Nii-san repaired.
