Sword of the Demon Hunter: Kijin Gentosho (Light Novel) Vol. 10

A POWER FROM THE PAST With his allies by his side, Jinya manages to bring an end to Nagumo Eizen’s schemes.
But while the lives of those dear to him are safe, the demonic sword he sought, Demon Wail, is taken by Yonabari amid the chaos. Yonabari is secretly after a power hidden in the blade—a power with deep ties to Jinya’s memory of Kadono… Is the sword lost to Jinya forever? And as the sun sets on the Taisho era, can Jinya hold those dear to him close despite the march of time?
Series Overview: For generations, a shrine has stood in the mountain village of Kadono, and for each generation the shrine has had an Itsukihime—its shrine maiden—and the maiden has had her guardian. During the Edo period, a young man named Jinta protects the town and the Itsukihime. When he confronts a strange demon in the nearby forest, it tells him that in the distant future a Demon God will threaten all people, everywhere, and it claims that the the Demon God’s rise to power springs from this very time and place, in the village of Kadono. So begins the centuries-spanning journey of a man tainted by demons, hunting through time to seek justice for what he’s lost, and to find a reason to keep on fighting.
