Jiyū had an old, spare futon—musty and woefully thin—which he had the courtesy to lay out for Nao while he was gone. By the time he got back from his bath, the night had crept into the early hours of the morning and the apartment was pitch black. Jiyū was already dead to the world, snoring up a gale on the opposite side of the room. Nao crawled into his makeshift bed and, for the first time that day, realised he was exhausted. It was as if several weeks had been carried out in the space between sunrise and sunset. But despite the fatigue, the futon underneath him was too threadbare; the uneven ground below was like mountains and valleys digging into his back. The sheets were scratchy, too warm, too cold, the night too quiet, but too loud. He stared up at the beams of the ceiling for what felt like decades, before slipping into a restless sleep. Nao was startled awake by the creaking of floorboards, the low murmuring of distant voices, the cawing of crows. Jiyū was sitting cross-legged at the low table, writing out spells on a stack of talisman papers. Their tea cups from the previous night had been pushed aside to make way for his work, though one had been refilled with a fresh, steaming brew. He didn’t raise his head as Nao padded over and took a seat, only one brow furrowing in concentration as he wrote. “Has anyone ever told you that you sleep with your eyes open?” he asked. “It’s quite horrifying to look at, first thing in the morning.” Nao poured himself a serving of tea into the empty cup. “I’ve been told so, yes.” When the dust settled, what remained in the centre of the crater was a horrifying creature. Her funeral clothes were dirty and tattered, rotten flesh sloughing off her mangled limbs. She crouched over, bloodied teeth baring. The beautiful illusion that stood before them minutes prior was no more than a mere monster. Coming to the realisation that her glamour had been broken through, the jikininki threw her head back and roared, a sound so loud it rattled their bones. She leapt to her feet, turning to make a run for it. “No!” Itsuki cried, readying another spell. Nao was one step ahead, having already formed another hand seal. His sword, which had fallen wayside by the demon’s feet in the impact, began to rattle against the earth. A faint light rolled over the length of the blade, pulsating with increasing intensity in each passing moment. With a flick of his wrist it moved from its sedentary position, lifting into the air several metres. Startled, the demon launched forward into the trees to escape—but it was too late. She tripped over something invisible at her feet and stumbled as Nao called the sword down on her. It rushed forward, impaling her through the stomach—and continued the motion, pulling her limp body along with it until the blade came to rest in the trunk of a nearby tree, pinning her in place. Nao released the hand seal and with it the light emanating from his sword dispersed. He slumped forward with a groan, coughing up a mouthful of blood onto the ground at his feet. Itsuki had watched all this play out with an expression halfway between awe and distress. Although he wasted no time in

Key findings: 45% of all AI answers had at least one significant issue. 31% of responses showed serious sourcing problems – missing, misleading, or incorrect attributions. 20% contained major accuracy issues, including hallucinated details and outdated information. Gemini performed worst with significant issues in 76% of responses, more than double the other assistants, largely due to its poor sourcing performance. Comparison between the BBC’s results earlier this year and this study show some improvements but still high levels of errors. Why this distortion matters AI assistants are already replacing search engines for many users. According to the Reuters Institute’s Digital News Report 2025, 7% of total online news consumers use AI assistants to get their news, rising to 15% of under-25s. ‘This research conclusively shows that these failings are not isolated incidents,’ says EBU Media Director and Deputy Director General Jean Philip De Tender. ‘They are systemic, cross-border, and multilingual, and we believe this endangers public trust. When people don’t know what to trust, they end up trusting nothing at all, and that can deter democratic participation.’
