Chapter 085: Agony

Agony (煩悶), Hanmon) is the 85th chapter of the Kekkaishi Manga written and illustrated by Yellow Tanabe.

Summary
Kaguro claims that Gen Shishio really just wants to be free to use his power, and should join Kokuboro. Gen attacks, but Kaguro easily avoids his attacks, continuing to taunt Gen about how similar they are. Kaguro gives Gen an insect egg, which will supposedly hatch into a loyal minion whose shape is based on its master. Kaguro leaves, and Gen takes the egg home, where he is startled when it begins talking in his voice.

Gen is distracted at Karasumori, which Yoshimori notices. Gen decides not to tell him what happened with Kaguro.

Aihi tells Byaku that the castle is starting to collapse because of Princess's failing health. Aihi suggests taking Princess to Karasumori temporarily, in hopes of her powers being restored. Byaku agrees and tells her to arrange it, though with the condition that Princess's life support system be designed for his use. Aihi insists that she go, as she is virtually a prisoner in the castle. Byaku activates his cybernetic eye, causing Aihi great pain that makes her collapse. He tells her to proceed as ordered.
