In Episode 9, the students travel to Kyoto for Juzo Shima's wedding. Upon arriving at the Toraya Inn, they are warmly welcomed by Ryuji Suguro's mother and meet the large Shima family, including Renzo Shima's siblings Gozo, Juzo, and Yumi, as well as his niece and nephew, Ten and Ken. Yumi shows great interest in Konekomaru Miwa, highlighting his close connection to the Shima family.
Renzo expresses his dislike for the responsibility imposed on him by inheriting the family deity Yamantaka, a role he had to take on after his brother Take's death. He confides in Konekomaru, sharing his desire for freedom. Konekomaru, in turn, admits that he envies Renzo for his family and abilities. Both reflect on their situations and conclude that they might have been born into the wrong families.
During the wedding preparations, the students participate in traditional activities like mochi pounding. Rin Okumura notices that his twin brother Yukio is growing increasingly distant. Rin tries to understand Yukio but feels more and more alienated. Later, he shares his concerns with Shiemi Moriyama.
Yukio, torn internally, seeks answers about their birth. In a tense encounter, he confronts Suguro's father but backs away, hinting at his inner conflicts. Meanwhile, Lightning continues his investigation into the Illuminati and confronts Dr. Drac Drăgulescu. Using his abilities, Lightning exposes the doctor's ties to the organization and announces his intention to report his findings.
Renzo attempts to escape his familial duties but is hindered by a Sylph Bell, which secretly monitors him. He considers using Yamantaka to remove the bell but is warned of the consequences. Konekomaru urges him to take his responsibilities seriously and criticizes Renzo for his lack of dedication in training.
During Juzo's bachelor party, Renzo is challenged by his brothers to physical tests, revealing his weakness and reluctance to accept his duties. Despite the festive atmosphere, tensions between the characters remain palpable.
While visiting a shrine, Rin and Shiemi get separated from the group. Rin shares his worries about Yukio but feels helpless about their strained relationship. Shiemi offers him support, but Rin remains troubled.
As the wedding ceremony progresses, the students join in the celebrations. Suguro assists with the preparations and seeks information about Shiro Fujimoto from his father, hinting at deeper investigations.
The episode ends with an urgent call summoning Yukio back to the academy due to the appearance of a high-ranking demon, a Cyclops.
