　　 Chiba s.h.i.+ori followed Kazuki as he went out the door .

　　 He glanced at Chiba s.h.i.+ori and knew that she had many questions, but he chose to ignore her . The more one knew about the world, the more dangerous it would become, especially for someone as curious as Chiba s.h.i.+ori . Even after the Akichi High School incident, she remained relentless and sought to uncover the mysterious case . She had no fear and was simply too ambitious .

　　 Kazuki had no doubt that she would get herself killed while investigating these mysteries .

　　 As they exited, she asked, “Is the specter still here?”

　　 “He's here, he's here…” But before Kazuki could finish answering, Akie Hanzawa nodded his head furiously . The change in his younger brother had excited him . Unfortunately, Chiba s.h.i.+ori was unable to hear him . He was forcefully returned into the Sun and Moon Sword by Kazuki before he was able to finish his sentence .

　　 “No, he ascended to heaven . ”

　　 “Ascended to heaven? Is there really heaven in this world?” Chiba s.h.i.+ori's eyes gleamed after hearing the answer . She felt that she would learn more about the world if she followed him . This sensation of acquiring new knowledge was quite intoxicating .

　　 Despite that, Chiba s.h.i.+ori did not give up and asked again, “What about the yokai in Akichi High School? Have you dealt with it?”

　　 “No, it's not something I can resolve on such short notice . ” Nothing in Akichi High School could get pa.s.s Chiba s.h.i.+ori . Thus Kazuki did not hide the incident from her . He relayed to her what Aoki Hidehiro had told him, “Call me if you have any news about Nis.h.i.+yama Chiyoko . ”

　　 “Chiyoko?” Chiba s.h.i.+ori's eyes glimmered when she heard that name .

　　 Her unusual reaction made Kazuki stop as he stared at Chiba s.h.i.+ori . He asked, “Do you know her?”

　　 “I'm in a chat group for light novel writers, and one of them uses Chiyoko as the pen name…”

　　 Kazuki felt disappointed and helpless when he heard her reply . Chiyoko was a common name and could be easily found everywhere in j.a.pan, much less a pen name .

　　 As if feeling Kazuki's disappointment, Chiba s.h.i.+ori continued, “This person claimed that she was a high school teacher in the group chat… But they quit because the pay was too low . ”

　　 “Which school?” Kazuki became serious after hearing that . The person used Chiyoko as a pen name was a teacher, and had resigned… Even if it were a coincidence, he would need to handle it meticulously and not miss any thread of possibility .

　　 “I don't know . She never mentioned it . ” Chiba s.h.i.+ori shook her head . The group chat was merely for casual conversation . Everyone in it was a netizen and would not divulge too much of their personal information online . “But the 'Light Novel s.p.a.ce' group will be holding a meeting next weekend in Akihabara . I'm not really interested in attending it… but I will sign up if you're still suspicious of this Chiyoko . ”

　　 “Just invite me into the group…” Kazuki groaned . “I will sign up myself later . ”

　　 “You can't . ” Chiba s.h.i.+ori smirked, “You need to be in the group for at least half a year to sign up . ”

　　 Kazuki stared at her . She must have a way for him to follow along since she said it in such a manner .

　　 “You can act as my chaperone when we go to Akihabara . There is no need to sign up . ” Chiba s.h.i.+ori blinked and declared, “It is very dangerous for me to go out alone since I am so beautiful . The people from the group will understand . ”

　　 Kazuki gazed at Chiba s.h.i.+ori's flawlessly exquisite face and nodded, “Alright . ”

　　 “Well then, shouldn't you tell me something about the paranormal as an exchange?” she replied as her eyes filled with antic.i.p.ation .

　　 Kazuki remained silent…

　　 Chiba s.h.i.+ori felt disappointed, but she did not inquire further . She believed that she could make Kazuki speak about it when they become closer .

　　 Kazuki then spoke, “Actually, I suggest you not to dig too much into this . The more you know… the more curious you will be and the more danger you will be in… As a normal person, you are weak and can easily die if you meet something paranormal . I believe you haven't forgotten about the incident in Akichi High School . ”

　　 Even after giving her three Ghost Expelling Talismans in Akichi High School, Chiba s.h.i.+ori still fainted on the way back . Meanwhile, Nakagawa Aokiji only had a fever but recovered a day later after taking some medicine .

　　 “I have already signed up for an annual members.h.i.+p in the 'Sakura Fitness Club . ' I will try to improve my health as soon as possible . ” Chiba s.h.i.+ori knew that her stamina was lacking . Thus, she had joined the fitness club before meeting Kazuki again .

　　 After training for about a week, she could feel her stamina improving . Previously, she would be gasping for air and almost fainted after running a lap in the physical education cla.s.s .

　　 Thus, Kazuki decided to tell her . Since she wanted to know about it, he would inform her how dangerous the world was .

　　 “There are only a few Soul Cultivators in the world…”

　　 Kazuki explained about reiki, Soul Cultivators, yokai, and spirits on their way to the subway station . Finally, he shared, “I attended Akihide High School to help Akie Hanzawa complete his obsessiveness and help him ascend to heaven . ”

　　 “So, there really is a heaven?” Chiba s.h.i.+ori inquired again .

　　 “Because I'm not dead yet . ” Kazuki decided to be frank for once and admitted, “So I'm not sure if it exists either . ”

　　 “Is Akie Hanzawa's obsessiveness related to Mikito Hanzawa?”

　　 “Indeed… Akie Hanzawa's obsessiveness is for Mikito Hanzawa to be independent and self-reliant . ” Kazuki uttered, “A specter is usually formed when it has an obsessiveness in its heart . Obsessiveness is extremely bizarre, but it also allows the specter to remain in the human realm . The specter could only ascend to heaven after fulfilling its obsessiveness . However, they might transform into a wraith and endanger the human realm if they linger for too long . ”

　　 From Kazuki's understanding, a wraith was a demon that was specialized in spiritual attacks . But for the j.a.panese, a wraith was just a demon… so he told Chiba s.h.i.+ori in a way that she could comprehend . He did not disclose to her that helping a specter ascend to heaven will elevate one's abilities, he couldn't be asked with questions .

　　 On their way there, Chiba s.h.i.+ori kept on questioning Kazuki, and he revealed to her everything he knew . When they reached the station, she felt like she had opened the door to a new world .

　　 As Kazuki walked into the station, Chiba s.h.i.+ori gazed at his back, her eyes gleaming with joy .
