Goodreads Synopsis:
Rin and his exorcist classmates are caught in a secret war against the forces of darkness.
Raised by Father Fujimoto, a famous exorcist, Rin Okumura never knew his real father. One day a fateful argument with Father Fujimoto forces Rin to face a terrible truth – the blood of the demon lord Satan runs in Rin’s veins! Rin swears to defeat Satan, but doing that means entering the mysterious True Cross Academy and becoming an exorcist himself.
The seals binding the artificial Gehenna Gate are broken, and the world is gripped by demonic chaos! As the Exwires try to figure out what to do without Rin and Yukio, and the Knights of the True Cross scramble to regroup, everyone seems lost. As nations around the world struggle to contain the outbreaks, Rin faces Mephisto, demanding to hear about his past. Mephisto couldn’t be more delighted to show Rin what happened all those years ago—but as Mephisto warns him, the story can only end in tragedy…

Review:
Yukio is off on a new adventure, and Shiemi's secrets are starting to
be revealed. But all of that is left behind as Rin gets to confront
his past, and thus see what happened with his mother.
Yukio is so stuck on being alone and wondering about the past, that
he's spiraling and is forcing himself away from all of his friends
and his brother. So of course, Rin needs to confront the past that he
didn't think he wanted anything to do with. It actually makes sense,
really.
We're also getting to connect some dots here. We're discovering what
led to Rin and Yukio, and we're discovering what Lucifer is actually
up to underneath all of this, as well.
Slow releases, of course, and this series can be rather
complicated—but it feels like we're finally starting to get some
answers to this mess that's happened.
