"G-g-g-ghost!"

Fujiwara Chika completely ignored her foul play of charging with the ball just now, nervously clutching Amamiya Natsuki's sleeve, completely flustered.

Hey, hey, aren't you a natural airhead?

You weren't scared of all those Spirits in the Ghost Academy, so why are you scared of a ghost now?!

Amamiya Natsuki rubbed his nose, looked up, and his eye twitched slightly.

On the Corridor ceiling, there was a huge, terrifying Spirit, like a giant snake with a woman-like head. Its black hair hung down, almost covering the entire Corridor, and the hair seemed to be alive, twisting and roaring in the air.

The story of the beautiful snake person relied on beauty to tempt people, but the evil spirit in front of him… was simply like a car accident scene, too horrible to look at.

This was a monster that only existed in the depths of nightmares.

Just one look from an ordinary person would cause their SAN value to plummet and the goosebumps to erupt.

I'm sorry.

I misunderstood you, Fujiwara.

Anyone would be scared of this thing, even a natural airhead wouldn't be immune.

Even Kaguya-san was no exception, involuntarily taking half a step back, her expression still cool and composed, but 'so scary so scary so scary' emojis kept floating above her head.

"You… can see me?"

The long-haired evil spirit, who had been staring blankly on the Corridor ceiling, heard the movement, and suddenly a dozen scarlet, terrifying eyes all focused on them. A chilling, eerie voice entered the ears of the three.

"Look…"

Fujiwara Chika's eyes were teary.

Before she could finish speaking, Amamiya Natsuki covered Fujiwara's mouth.

"Don't speak." Amamiya Natsuki leaned close to Fujiwara Chika's ear, lowered his voice, and quickly said, "Act like you didn't see anything."

After officially gaining player qualifications, he could see the true world.

To be honest, compared to the real world, Amamiya Natsuki actually found the vengeful spirits in Ghost Academy more adorable; at least they had human forms. Some vengeful spirits, apart from their pale faces, silent floating movements, and a tendency to keep their heads down, were no different from ordinary people.

The evil spirits appearing in the real world were scarier one by one.

The evil spirit coiling in the Corridor clearly didn't believe him, twisting and turning like a giant snake. Scarlet light burst from its eyes, and its black hair rose into the air, hissing and screaming:

"You saw me! I'm going to eat you!"

Fortunately, Amamiya Natsuki had kept the Evil Spirit Banishing aura active. As the long hair whistled over and entered the aura's range, it quickly ignited like flammable material accidentally falling into a flame.

The flames spread upwards, burning along the black hair.

The evil spirit in the Corridor first looked bewildered, then quickly screamed and slapped at the flames on its body, fleeing rapidly into the distance.

"…It left."

Shinomiya Kaguya couldn't help but sigh in relief, only then realizing her palms were sweating.

Even Ice Princess Kaguya had things she feared, and ghosts were one of them.

Rather, no one except a pervert could remain calm.

"W-what was that just now?!"

Fujiwara Chika's eyes were misty, "That was too terrifying!"

"Someone's coming." Shinomiya Kaguya pressed her brow and whispered, "Let's go back to the classroom first."

At the same time.

"Miko, are you okay?"

The short-haired girl with orange hair extended her right hand, waving it curiously in front of Yotsuya Miko, "Why did you suddenly stop walking?"

Yurikawa Hana said, looking up at the sky and glancing around, "There's clearly nothing in the Corridor."

You're wrong.

There was a super terrifying evil spirit coiling in the Corridor just now.

"I'm fine." Yotsuya Miko shook her head, "I suddenly remembered something very important just now…"

"Eh, what thing?"

"You calling out to me made me forget it again."

"Oh, I'm terribly sorry."

"…"

Yotsuya Miko grumbled as she walked upstairs, involuntarily recalling everything she had just witnessed.

That terrifying evil spirit, coiling like a snake on the Corridor ceiling, actually suddenly burst into flames and fled in panic just by getting close to Natsuki?

What exactly happened just now?

Yotsuya Miko also remembered what happened this morning at the Convenience Store entrance; the evil spirit in the Convenience Store uniform suddenly dissipated for no reason. At the time, she was curious about what happened.

Now that she thought about it, it must be related to Natsuki.

Seeing the scene just now, the black-haired, golden-eyed girl couldn't help but clench her small fists. A happy smile appeared on her fatigued face, caused by lack of sleep and prolonged tension.

Great news!

Hope finally appeared in her gloomy life!

About a week ago, shortly after school started, Yotsuya Miko was returning home in the evening when, for some unknown reason, her eyes suddenly began to see various terrifying evil spirits around her.

Salting to ward off evil.

Crucifixes.

Garlic.

Holy water.

Shrine amulets.

Yotsuya Miko even specifically went on Amazon and gritted her teeth to buy a peach wood sword for warding off evil.

But none of it worked.

No one but herself could see these evil spirits, let alone expel or eliminate them.

Yotsuya Miko felt like a husky who had wandered into a pack of wolves; once her identity was exposed, she would be torn to shreds. Every day was lived in fear, treading on thin ice, her life left in utter gloom.

But now…

"Eh heh~!"

It's decided, I'll take the initiative tonight!

I'm his childhood friend, so there won't be some inexplicable fated girl suddenly appearing, right?

Inside the classroom.

Amamiya Natsuki walked to his seat and put down his schoolbag.

It was still very early, and the classroom was empty, with only a few students, making it quite quiet.

"Kaguya-chan, can you tell us now?" Fujiwara Chika whispered, "Why is reality scarier than the Game?"

"I'm not very clear either…"

Shinomiya Kaguya pursed her pink lips slightly, twirling a strand of hair by her ear. Her tone was cool as she fully recounted everything from yesterday until now, then said, "My intuition tells me that if those evil spirits know we can see them, something very terrible will happen."

Fujiwara Chika was on the verge of tears.

She regretted it.

She regretted it terribly.

Unfortunately, there's no medicine for regret in the world.

"The Evil Spirit Repelling Aura that drove away that evil spirit just now was something I got from a blind box…"

Seeing Fujiwara Chika look over, Amamiya Natsuki explained.

"Eh?" Fujiwara Chika's eyes lit up, "So you can open blind boxes?"

"Where, where? My luck is always super good, you know."

Amamiya Natsuki reminded her: "You can see it by opening the Game store."

"Hmm… I see it." Fujiwara Chika muttered, looking at the air in front of her, "There's also a permanent attribute next to it, priced at fifty Game coins."

Amamiya Natsuki looked over curiously, only able to see empty air. Other players' Game panels were indeed invisible.

It was a pity; he couldn't see the blind boxes in other people's stores, so he couldn't help even if he wanted to.

"The attribute is called 'One Centimeter Miracle.' After purchasing it, you can make any part of your body grow by one centimeter…" Fujiwara Chika widened her eyes, "What's the point of growing one centimeter taller?"

"…"

Amamiya Natsuki fell into contemplation.

Where would the One Centimeter Miracle be most appropriately applied?
