Chapter 114

Dust and Demi-Gods (1) (塵と半神①, Chiri to Han Kami) is the first part of the 114th chapter of the To Your Eternity manga.

Summary
The Nokker in Iddy's arm digs into the ground and summons forms to surround Kahaku. They take on the forms of Fushi's lost forms. Kahaku laughs and asks if the Nokker is trying to play God by making so many human forms. He also asks if it intentionally ran to the grinding facility area where Fushi can't interfere and speculates the Nokker is trying to kill him.

All the Nokker forms lunge towards Kahaku at once but Kahaku stabs them all at once without a scratch. He tells the Nokker it's sad that it's trying to kill him despite them being together since he was a child. Kahaku says he could just cut off Iddy's arm (taking out the core with it) but "Fushi's pet dog" won't be able to handle it. He speculates that the Nokker entered into Iddy knowing neither Fushi or him can lay a finger on her.

Suddenly, a Booze Man Nokker grabs Kahaku's feet and knocks him onto the ground. Nokker veins hold Kahaku down as the forms loom over him.

Kahaku talks to the Nokker and tells it that it once told him it didn't want to die because it was afraid of vanishing. Kahaku tries to make a deal with the Nokker saying his bloodline will outlast Iddy's life so Kahaku can give the Nokker eternal life.

Suddenly, all the forms are destroyed and Kahaku is freed. Kahaku gets up and sees Kai holding Iddy. Kai asks him what he plans to do now; will he come back with them and see if he is accepted as an ally? Kahaku realizes that Kai is alive, meaning Fushi is too, and asks Kai to tell Fushi that he's not going to return. He reveals part of his has been possessed by the Nokker and walks off.
