ばか！バカ！　馬鹿ー月！

Kaoru is a real person, but he is not Kaoru. Kaoru is the twin sister of the fake Kaoru. Both his twin sister and his father are trapped in the ice coffins. There are curses that do not allow others to see the coffins, to not let him tell others about the coffins etc etc... That is why the fake Kaoru had to be so evil to do all the things. In the novel, the big machine grants wishes, not just one. Keita made the following wishes... Return me to my original state(he was turned into a baby, but not getting younger and disappearing, and Yuuko is trapped in a golden sphere made by her father.) and send me back to the battlefield (against the robot with a drill at you know where, it betrayed its master), try to settle the two people in the ice coffins(Real Kaoru and their father), cure everyone who got injured in this incident(not sure how effective) and just fix everything. The machine malfunctioned half way, or even earlier, no one knows what happened to Kaoru(fake) and Nadeoshiko disappeared(she used a skill that would kill her, not sure if recovered?). That is very similar to the anime, but the main difference is... YES Kaoru and her dad are REVIVED!! That means Kaoru lives! and that may be her story from vol 9 on, or she might get to like Keita too ^^

Keita is a child abandoned by his family due to the lack of Inukamis willing to work under him. One day he was given a call back and was told that there is an inukami that is willing to follow him. He meets Yuuko, his Inukami. He begins his new life with Yuuko, who loves Keita and seduces+plays with Keita all the while. Later, Keita begins interaction with some other Inukamis, from Kaoru(fake). He works on some cases with these Inukamis, and Karina Shiro, a police official. They get into a lot of funny and troublesome situations, such as the cat Tomekichi seeking buddha statues, fighting a shinigami and becoming homeless...

Eventually, Keita, Kaoru(fake) and Karina Shiro came across Shiro's ancestor, Sekidosai. They fail to capture him, and Kaoru(fake) later approached him for mutual benefits. Meanwhile, Yuuko's father, Dai Yoko breaks from his seal. Dai Yoko and Sekidosai fought once in the past, and Sekidosai lost. Thus they went for a rematch. Unexpectedly, Sekidosai's robot Xanthippe went beserk and modified Daisakkai and betrayed its master. The inukamis were overwhelmed by the might at first, but thanks to Keita, they eventually pulled through...
