In Noragami: Stray God, Vol 11, it was revealed that the gods have kept a deadly secret from their shinki. Gods know their shinkis' true names, as well as how they died. This secret is closely guarded, for shinkis that discover their true names, their soul can never again be saved by being named and transformed into a vessel. Rejected by Yato, Hiro the Stray now plots Yukiné's demise by dangling in front of him the fact that Yato has a secret he would rather not share with him. This create doubt in Yukiné's mind.

Meanwhile, Hiyori discovers the true origins of Yato, and how his father created him out of a wish. She observes Yato's memories as a god-child, killing wantonly with Hiro to please his father. Yato's encounter with a nameless spirit, however, changed his view of the world and promoted a desire to see a shrine constructed in his honor. Named Sakura, Yato's new shinki shows him a side of humanity he had never seen. But as he spends more and more time with Sakura, his father punishes Hiro for being a bad girl. As a result, Hiro decides to avenge herself on Sakura, by goating Yato into revealing her true name ...


The story continues in Noragami: Stray God, Vol. 13.
