“Sunday morning rain is falling~”

“Clouds are shrouded… ah, you wake up!”

“…”

“Why are you looking at me as if it’s the first time we met? Hello, Mir, do you remember me? Do you remember your name?”

“…”

“Oh, come on, you are not this bad yesterday!”

“…wait.”

The girl closed her eyes again. She was thinking. She was trying to remember. She organized her fuzzy memories. And then, she remembered everything. After she spent half an hour organizing her memories.

Her name was Miracle Angeliva. She was a high school student. She was a girl. And she could see ghosts and other things.

After experiencing three life experiences that were far longer than her own experience, Mir was disoriented. Especially when she just woke up. She almost forgot who she was. No, actually, she did forget who she was.

“…”

Mir sighed as forgetting her own life would be terrifying. She remembered other’s lives more than her own life. After all, even though it felt like she was watching a documentary video when she was watching their memories, she also felt their emotion and it felt like she felt those emotions herself. So, it was no different than experiencing a different life as a different person.

“Are you alright?” Zed asked worriedly.

Mir nodded slightly. She immediately got up from her bed and felt her goosebumps tingling glaringly. She reflexively looked around, but besides Zed, she didn’t see any ghosts.

Noticing her cautious expression, Zed asked once again. “Are you seriously alright?”

Mir wanted to nod, but before she did it, she saw a silhouette of something flew just outside her windows. She immediately opened the curtain and what she saw caused her jaws to slightly open in surprise.

Evil spirits were everywhere. They were flying undisturbed. They looked like a swarm of migratory birds flying in the sky. Though the evil spirit sometimes attacked someone. However, those people didn't notice an evil spirit just flew through them...

“Ah, the ghosts, huh? Mir, there is something that I have to tell you.” Zed said awkwardly. “It seems that the strongest ghost in that place controls all the other ghosts so they are bound to that place. However, after we defeated that ghost, uh, the bind is broken and now, the ghosts are roaming in this city. Oh, but don’t worry, in a few days, they will all settle down.”

…after they find a place to haunt, naturally. Zed added inwardly.

“So, let’s ignore them for now, they won’t do much harm to us!”

Though they might inflict harm to other people, it’s not my problem!

“More importantly, Mir, how do you feel? Do you feel lethargic? Headache? Nausea? Anything wrong with your body? Well, yesterday you spent a lot of spiritual energy, more than your body can handle, so it is normal to feel something like that! All you need to do is rest!” Zed explained.

Mir nodded. She felt a little bit under the weather, that was true. And her muscles ached so much. She thought it might be because she ran all the time in the Doll Castle yesterday. But Zed mentioned that it might be caused by the exertion of spiritual power…

“Right! I have a message from that brat, Raleigh. He said that he would upload the video you recorded in the Amusement Park! Oh, he must have uploaded it last night, why don’t we watch the video now?”

Mir looked at the Zed who excitedly flying in a circle above her. She noticed something weird, so she asked Zed.

“…message?”

As far as she knew, Zed couldn’t use a phone. It could manipulate objects, like causing a door to be opened or shut suddenly, causing a trash can to explode, or breaking lamps. However, it couldn’t do delicate things like turning a page of a book, or operated phone. So, that was why it needed people’s help so it could read a book or watch movies.

“Hm? Ah, yep, he sent a letter by magical means. Actually, he sent it by transmitting a spiritual message to me, something like that. Well, I don’t know how to reply though. I haven’t learned something like that, but maybe, all the Ghost Hunters have special ways to deliver their messages? Not sure how he did it, but just accept it.” Zed explained. “More importantly, let’s watch it! I wasn’t with you for two-third of our adventure, I want to see what you’ve been going through! Come on, let’s watch it together!”

“…nn.” Mir nodded as she started operated her phone. Her fingers moved awkwardly as she was not used to it before they stopped entirely. She looked at Zed and tilted her head questioningly.

“…” Zed didn’t answer her even though it also knew what she wanted to ask. Yes, even though Raleigh told it about the video that he was going to upload, he didn’t give the link at all.

Zed sighed as it also forgot about it. “For now, let’s just type ghost hunter as the keywords. Oh, also, limit the time to 24 hours.”

Mir nodded and she typed the keywords slowly. Fortunately, Zed’s hunch was correct, as the first video had Mir’s face as the thumbnail. As for the title of the video… It was enough to make Mir speechless.

“'The appearance of beautiful Ghost Hunter! Even though she is a newbie, she has great potential! The Adventure in the Dreampark Amusement Park!’” Zed read the title while holding back his laughter.

“…”

“Sorry, that guy is truly an idiot!”

But he is a good idiot!

“Anyway, Mir, let’s play the video!” Zed urged her.

“…nn.” Mir nodded and touched the play button.

The video started from when she entered the amusement park. Raleigh was the sole person in the video. He comically raised his wooden sword before suddenly the wooden sword was broken and he was flying. Now that Mir looked from the video, it looked like an exaggerated special effect, though she knew what happened at that time. At that time, Raleigh was pushed by the swarm of ghosts… or in his words, evil spirits. However, none of the evil spirits were captured in the video.

“No, look! If you see it carefully, you can see something like… distortion? Well, something like that here!” Zed pointed out the distortion and Mir noticed it too. That was right, in the place where the evil spirits were the thickest, there was a distortion. It was as if the distortion was caused by heat on hot asphalt.

They kept watching the videos and Zed commented every time it saw Mir in danger. And she was in danger almost all the time she was in the amusement park, so, Zed never stopped commenting.

When they finished watching the video with a duration of more than two hours, Zed let out a sigh.

“Fuh, I feel like I just watch a movie. You know, the horror movie that looks like a collection of amateur videos! Oh, right, you are not a fan of movies, huh? Well, anyway, it’s good that you are safe even after facing three dangerous ghosts. I think you really have the potential to be a ghost hunter!” Zed praised Mir.

“…”

“And that brat is really useless! I thought he might be useful a little after seeing him using Seal of Five Elements, but really, he is useless— oh, wait a minute, I got a message from that useless boy now… mm, I see. Mir, he gave me his phone number. I guess he wants you to call him or something like that."

“…but he is truly an idiot! Naturally, I can’t remember a string of numbers like that! Does he think that I have eidetic memory?”

And even if I have, there’s no way that I’ll tell her his phone number!

“…and now he says that he is in front of your house. Tsk, this stalker is persistent!”

“…” Mir sighed as she listening Zed’s monologue. It seemed that she had to greet Raleigh before he knocked on her door and startled her mother.

“Where are you going?” Zed asked as Mir wore a cardigan and immediately walked out of the door.

“…Raleigh.” She replied swiftly before she disappeared in the corner.

“Tsk, there’s no way I can trust that idiot brat to take care of her! Wait, Mir, I’m with you!” Zed followed hurriedly.

Fortunately, her mother was still busy in the kitchen, so she didn’t notice that Mir went outside. In front of her house, a luxurious car was parked. She remembered that car. It was the same car as the last night. That meant, besides Raleigh, there was another person in the car.

“Morning, Mir.” Fred stepped out of the car as he saw Mir approaching the car. He immediately greeted Mir with a refreshing smile. A beat later, Raleigh also opened the door and greeted Mir.

“Yo. It seems a good night of sleep does wonder to you!” Raleigh greeted her. Mir looked at Raleigh, but his complexion was not good at all. It seemed he was deprived of sleep.

“…morning.” Mir nodded at the two of them as she sent an inquisitive gaze at them.

Fred raised his hands. “Don’t ask me, I’m just a driver today.”

He sent a glance at Raleigh as if saying that Raleigh was the sole reason why they were here. Though by the look of it, Fred also knew the reason why they were here, he didn’t want to say it.

“There is someone that wants to meet you.” Raleigh said without beating around the bush. “And today, I want to bring you to that person’s place. Or do you have a plan for today?”

“Oi, oi, you brat, that’s how you invite a girl? No wonder you don’t have a girlfriend!” Zed interrupted as it felt ignored. It was so sure that Raleigh was the type of person who wouldn't get a girlfriend in his life. Not only he looked ordinary, he was also pathetic and useless, proven in the video he uploaded himself.

Feeling irritated because Zed suddenly judged him like that, Raleigh glared at Zed before his lips curved in a mocking smile. “It is true that I don’t have a girlfriend. But I do have a fiancée, you know?”

“Ugh! Impossible! Someone like you… someone like you… there’s no way someone like you have a girlfriend!!!” Zed flew away in defeat.

“…”

“…”

Surprisingly, Raleigh didn’t say anything even though he managed to drive Zed away. No, his expression was cramped as he couldn’t say anything more. Fred emphatically patted his shoulder as he gave an explanation to Mir.

“He indeed has a fiancée but… his fiancée is kind of… you know, fierce in loving him. If she sees him alone with another girl, she might stab him in the back. That is one of the reasons why he ran from home.” Fred sighed as he looked at the faraway sky.

He was so fortunate because once, he was also almost smitten by her beauty. Fortunately, when he talked to her, his instinct blared cautiously, giving him a warning so he didn’t make an advance to that woman. And fortunately, that woman took a fancy at his best friend, Raleigh. Raleigh, unknown of the danger, happily talked to her because, well, she was a beautiful girl. And she had a great personality. At least on the surface.

But after knowing her jealous tendency, Raleigh decided to run away from his home. Well, her jealous tendency was not the sole reason why he ran away from home though. He also didn’t like his family for various reasons. He also didn’t like his family for not listening to him. So, he ran away because of those problems.

“So, you see, now, he is taking a lot of damage for acknowledging that he has a fiancée. I never thought he would go this far.” Fred said with a laugh.

“…” Mir didn’t say anything as she didn’t know what to say. She only thought that Raleigh had misfortunes with women. Before this, a beautiful ghost wanted to marry him, and now, his fiancée was a jealous woman who could stab him in the back. Seriously, he had bad luck with women.

“Cough, anyway, while he is recovering from the mental damage he inflicted on himself, I’ll explain the matter to you. So, someone who wants to meet you is his teacher. It seems that she sees great potential in you and she wants to teach you everything she knows, something like that. So, shall we go?”

After she knew the reasons why they invited her, Mir nodded, but she realized something as she looked at the reflection reflected on the car. She was still wearing her pajamas, so she immediately shook her head,

“…wait.”

...and returned to her house without inviting the two of them...
