Kagurabachi Chapter 8 opens with another sorcerer stepping out of the shadows to claim the bounty he arms dealing sorcerer Genichi Sojo placed on Char, Chihiro’s young ward. Before he can attack, however, he is swiftly dispatched by a new character named Azami. Azami is soon revealed to be a member of the Kamunabi, a sect of sorcerers who serve the government of Japan.
Upon returning to Hinao’s office, Azami reveals that Gojo has gotten his hands on Shinuchi, another of the Rokuhira family’s enchanted katana, and plans to put it up for all during the criminal underworld’s upcoming underground auction. At the same time, Gojo attends a meeting with two of his superiors, one of whom is the fedora-clad sorcerer who was part of the group that attacked Chihiro’s father, confirming that Gojo works for the Hishaku.
With the auction set to start in one month, Chihiro has plenty of time to plan his next move and recover at least one of the enchanted swords the Hishaku destroyed his life to claim. Unfortunately, the Hishaku ordered Gojo to put Shinuchi up for auction, so the Chihiro is likely walking into a carefully laid trap his enemies have set up for him.
