Chapter 6

I Don't Want to Hurt You is the sixth chapter of the Bone Collection manga series

Summary
Heading deeper in the forest, Paira sings a vomit song as Shutendoji is one of her best friends, commenting that after tiresome battles, he would join her for a drink. She wonders why they are targeting Shutendoji and why he is in the human world, but Akifuyu comments its their job to protect humans from yokai. They reach a mansion and see some kids playing around it. Paira tries to call out Shutendoji to talk, but Oni come ouf of the mansion. Akifuyu uses a Bind spell on the kids and grabs Rino and heads inside, but before that, she tells Kazami that they synchronization level is low and he is using only 1% of it. If they increase it, they can win against the Oni. Paira tells Akifuyu to not hurt Shutendoji, as he isn't the kind to hurt a human. Paira tells Kazami to use her bones, but he decides not to and tries using talismans on the Oni.

Akifuyu drops Rino to the kids and tells her to evacuate them. Rino tells them to go home, but they say their home is here. Inside the mansion, Akifuyu faces Shutendoji, who asks her what she wants from his mansion and kids, and Akifuyu tells him its about illegal trespassing into the human world and they start fighting.

As Kazami refuses to use Paira's bones, she throws a fit, saying that he is falling for the fake cute act and sees her only as yokai. Kazami tells her to stop that and think, as likely those Oni are protecting Shutendoji and they may be his friends and he doesn't want to hurt her friends' friends. As they hear rumble in the mansion, Paira tells him to quickly defeat them and explains they are just mud dolls created by Shutendoji. Understanding the situation, Kazami sees a skull mark on Paira's chest and he pulls out a sword from her and defeats the Oni, with Akifuyu watching and commenting that was 5% synchronization.
