Mei, who doesn’t open her heart to anyone, reveals her purpose for coming to this town only to Shiori. “I want to kill the seven people who drove my sister to her death.” Three years ago, Mei’s sister, Akari, was subjected to horrific bullying in this town and took her own life. Mei has returned to exact revenge. She plans to perform the blood-soaked ritual ‘Okakashitsutsumi,’ handed down at Akada Shrine, to embody the giant serpent god ‘Okakashisama’ and kill the seven people involved.
