Master Detective Power and Her Assistant Denji[]

16 Devil Hunters are led into the House Devil's body including Denji, Power, and Kenzo, and over the next couple of nights it slowly digests them as they try to find out what's causing the disappearances. With only Power and Kenzo remaining, Power accidentally strikes at the House Devil's heart while aiming for Kenzo and reveals who the true culprit is.
