[And that's definitely a reaction to the term. Based on how a lot of Natori's conversations in Jigoku-cho around this have gone, he'd guess this person is an ayakashi who hasn't considered themselves in that dichotomy-- human vs. other-- before now. There are an awful lot of ayakashi here who don't consider themselves ayakashi. Normally, this might be a sign that he has to change his way of thinking about them, but Natori will not be taking constructive criticism.]

Haha, you could say that. I work as an exorcist back in the human world. We protect people from spirits who have become violent or dangerous. [Not necessarily the best profession to be in upon arriving to youkai hell!] Obviously things are a little different here.
