I contacted the landlord from my smartphone and told him that my neighbor was dead.

She asks me where I am now, so I say park.

Then I was asked to go back to my room and wait because I was the first discoverer.

Will they still ask me about how I found the body?

"That's a hassle."

Finish the call and sit down on the bench. Angelica sits next to me, too, and she looks me in the eye.

"Am I really living with that grandfather?"

"It'll only be a few days, and we're still at the speculation stage."

"Even if it was manipulated, I'm a former cohabitant, and should I go to your funeral?"

Can you hold a funeral?

It's enough to die lonely, and I wonder if the survivors can get it done in a burial.

Even the surviving family could be distant relatives.

"Do you even want to donate flowers in front of the room when it's all cleaned up? I think this is just the right distance."

The park at night is completely quiet and there's no one but us.

When the conversation breaks, the sound is gone.

The girl says she doesn't like silence, and should we talk about something?

Thinking that way, Angelica opened her mouth first.

"... Ghosts, I hope you didn't do anything weird while you were moving my body. Hey, what do you want to do? What if this body was used for something as bad as pulling?"

"For example?"

"Sexual matters. Unhygienic things. That's what it's like."

Angelica is staring at me with the kind of eyes she explores.

"It's not Ange's fault, and I don't care. She's my precious daughter."

I know what it's like to be anxious.

Even I, the man, don't let my body move on its own.

If I were to be a sixteen-year-old girl, I'd be running scared.

When the status appraisal was performed before, the remarks said that there was no male experience, so I think it is ok.

"Hehe. I thought your father would say that. What an important daughter...... what, daughter? Daughter!? Over this period, do you still say that!? Many of the sweet words that spat when you found me, whatever you think, were directed at her from her boyfriend! 'Cause she's important', right there!

"Even if you fought with your father and daughter, that's how you say it. It's possible if you're a good parent and kid."

There was something wrong with me then.

Are you trying to talk yourself out of this? And I feel strange, but I want to think it's force majeure.

"... you're an impossible stubborn..."

Put your hands on Angelica's shoulder.

"Yes, I'm stubborn, because I've decided to be a lot cuter as a father until you grow up. Only as a father. I don't want to do that. Let's get rid of the bugs. It's part of the problem."

"Insect control?"

"If another strange ghost enters your body, you don't like it. They're still lurking somewhere. Enchant the Realm."

"Oh, right"

This will prepare Angelica for startup, as long as she will never be manipulated again.

Sacrid Circle. A holy circle that brings absolute defense to a range of about three hundred meters radius of the subject.

It's a junction that would have bounced off the spirit body that was around Ange.

Now I think that if I hadn't used this on Ange the first time, I could have put together the evil spirits around the room and defeated him.

But at that time, I didn't think they were from another world.

I interpreted it as saying that there were ghosts in modern Japan, and so on, so I decided that there was no point in defeating them here.

Some graveyard sprang up from being a corpse, I guess they're dropping by. Unless it keeps coming back.

If, however, it is a possessory method of warfare from another world, the constant "former" becomes the commander of the ghost group.

The most powerful, employer-faithful spirit-type monster to lead countless spirits.

He should be giving orders to the other spirits in his reading.

Mostly trained on Reis and Specter species, they stand out evil, unlike lower spirits.

I hope they find it soon.

"I wonder where you are, ghost"

I shrugged as I tied the line on Ange.

"I walked around looking for that one all day today, and you couldn't find one. The ahead is caring."

"I'm saddened by the lack of strength."

"It's not Ange's fault. It's weird."

Angelica's sensing revealed Ayako's evil from hundreds of meters away.

Excellent range and accuracy. A user of this level explored the whole town and couldn't find just one.

Even in ghost sight, there will be a blind spot.

Is it something that you can accurately distance yourself from Angelica passing outside, even if you were in the building?

Is it in your hand that you find out?

For example, you think you're watching us move somewhere? So, that's what he's telling his buddies.

This allows Angelica to escape at her leisure whenever she approaches.

But how?

If there was a spirit watching Angelica from a visible distance, she'd be found in a range so sensible.

Watching us from super distance, teaching other ghosts how to move?

... you don't. I don't listen to people who have good spiritual vision, or rather worse than humans.

How about possessed by a creature with good vision and watching from afar?

No, I can't do this either.

The ghosts of different worlds are usually possessed only by the same species as they were in their lifetime.

Assuming you possess more birds than humans do with your sight, the contents are still bird spirits.

You can't be a watchman because you're not intelligent enough to do your reading.

I don't think I can use surveillance cameras or wiretaps.

But if I had learned enough modern knowledge to use them in this short period of time and had been able to prepare gold, I might have bought about a small bug.

Even if I planted that in Angelica's clothing, it would be a sacred witch costume if I were to do it.

Now Angelica bought it after the ghost stopped approaching her in the Seiklid Circle, wearing modern Japanese clothes. Until underwear.

You can see no wire bugged into your clothes.

What the hell kind of seed are you using?

Finish stretching your boundaries as you fill your head with questioning marks.

"Ok. Now there's a safe zone around Ange"

"You're grateful. You said something pretty awful, so you need care, right? There's something else besides this, isn't there?

"Ugh. Sort of."

Though flimsy, think.

Safe Zone...... yes. They're hiding somewhere safe and hard to find.

It's not even caught on Angelica's senses, so we can unilaterally observe this one.

Where would I go in there?

Possessed by things and humans, he's been sensed.

On one side, somewhere in their favor.

I'm overlooking that.

At times like this, you should instead think in the other person's shoes.

How to attack the brave Keisuke Nakamoto, seen from the Spiritual Body.

I pride myself on my absolute status and can't win from the front first.

I guess the best thing is to manipulate me directly, but I guess the magic defense was too high to be possible.

A normal, if spiritual, must-win pattern is to "possess, manipulate, and commit suicide on the subject".

This is the smartest and the best. Kill the opponent with the least effort and also do a lot of damage to the people left behind.

That's right.

Spiritual bodies always think about using enemies.

The stronger the manipulative enemies are and the more they are liked by everyone, the stronger they become.

That's why I possessed Angelica, who has the status there and is also a beautiful girl.

It would have been an ideal object of possession, with its use for both force and appearance.

So why did you possess Kwon Fu?

I guess it's because he also falls into the "strong" category among modern people.

No one else with firearms or blades is like Yakuza.

Not to mention there was even a girl, Rio, who looked just like Elsa in and out of the house, so you decided it was something convenient.

I would have been upset if Rio had been used as a hostage.

... hostages.

The worst thing I've ever done right now.

As a gift to the brave, it should be easy for me to come up with a beautiful birth daughter.

So we should get our hands on Angelica. This is my new weakness.

If you're my enemy, you should poke it there.

But how?

How to use Angelica and carry things in their favor.

... What do you got?

A combination of the properties of the spiritual body and the girl I always keep on my side, the means I can take.

"... there is. There is."

"Father?"

"This will keep us under constant surveillance, and we can slip through my Sacrid Circle."

What's the sudden matter, Angelica peeks into my face.

"It's a simple story. How could I not have noticed? Even if the evil spirits are no longer close to Ange's" surroundings, "Ange's" contents "are otherwise fine. That's not a protected place in the junction. It's like the eyes of a typhoon. If the spirits had already entered before they were bound, on the contrary, they would be able to use it as a safe monitoring point. Sensing skills also have an effect range of 'my surroundings', and 'my contents' are not included. You'll never find it in Ange's skills."

"What do you mean?

That's why I keep going.

"You're still in there, aren't you, ghost?"

Perfectly stops Angelica from moving.

"... yet?

"Oh. I have one that's not out of my system. As a watchman, he's still in Ange. This is convincing. You can look at me all you want on one side."

Much of the day has passed since possession, so the right to manipulate the flesh has finally shifted to Angelica.

Still, it is possible to stay inside and skip directions in readings to your fellow ghosts.

"Can we try to decurse it? If nothing comes out, it's out of the question."

"Hey, I'd love to. I don't like the weird lurking in me. Please hurry."

Magic at your fingertips, push Angelica's forehead.

"Uncurse."

At the same time, a blurry light is emitted, and the magic of the junction that I put on first is dispelled.

The junction unwinds and the sanctuary surrounding Angelica melts into the darkness of night.

Next.

If anything changes this next time, it must be...
