Oni no Ou to Chigire - Chapter 5 Pg 96

No matter how much Hoshiai had the demon cornered it resisted. Neither were able to fatally wound the other.

I could wait if it seemed like it was going to end soon, but looks like thats going to be impossible in an hour. Ill just say what I have to say and go back home to Tokimori.

Yeah, lets do that, Yato nodded to himself. He broke out of his concealment after so many years, and released his true power. All his pent up energy was set free all at once. His forty centimeter body expanded until it reached almost two meters tall. Even his horns that looked like the canine teeth of a child grew to almost twenty centimeters. His thin limbs were now robust with muscles like steel. Around his dark skinned waist was a tiger striped loin cloth and his favorite long sword. It had been sixteen years since he was last in this form. His sense of freedom was overwhelming. He clenched his hands to verify the feeling then jumped down from the tree, landing between the demon and Hoshiai. He could have landed as soft as feather, but he landed on the ground with a heavy thud to begin his intimidation toward Hoshiai. He looked at the new large demon that appeared with a stern expression, but eventually realized it was the small demon he had met during the afternoon.
