The night was dim, the moon obscured and the winds fierce.
In the real world, all was quiet at Inunaki Pass.
Once night fell, scarcely any vehicle could be seen traversing the roads of Inunaki.
Kamiya drove his freshly repaired boxy car, lonesome on the highway.
During the afternoon, he had stayed in the hotel, even playing a game to pass the time.
First, he visited the territory of the Earthbound Spirit of Furuta, reflecting on the woeful life of the deceased vengeful spirit; then, accompanied by Hannya, he efficiently farmed Soul Crystals in Inunaki Tunnel for a good while.
Battle allowed Hannya to more quickly digest the aura of the soul-soothing candle flame within.
It wasn't until the evening, well-rested and with a full belly, that Kamiya returned to Inunaki Pass.
"But since it's about getting rid of ghost stories, acting at night should increase the likelihood of encountering spirits," he thought.
Kamiya truly believed so.
