Yagoo listened attentively to A-chan's response. "Probably, it's a high chance it is," she replied, confirming Yagoo's suspicion.

Yagoo nodded his head in agreement. "Soudesu…." he muttered to himself.

Realizing the potential danger that the merging of the realms could bring, Yagoo made a decision. "We should tell our members to be careful because I think stronger creatures from the supernatural realm will come into this plane," he said, concerned for the safety of his employees.

Reimu suggested a simple solution, "You can just change houses."

The man let out a chuckle and responded, "I know, but I bragged to my wife about it, and she wants to see it in person."

Reimu was puzzled by his answer and thought to herself, "What kind of husband and wife are they when they don't live together?"

The man's face lit up with relief as he pleaded, "Please help me."

Reimu let out a sigh before finishing her tea and saying, "Fine."

She then turned to the man and asked, "I'm going to exterminate the ghost right now, do you want to come with me, Mr…?"

The man introduced himself as Hendrickson, to which Reimu responded with a nod and a friendly smile. "Okay, Mr. Hendrickson, my name is Hakurei Reimu," she said.

Hendrickson expressed his gratitude to Reimu for her willingness to help. However, he looked a bit confused when she mentioned exterminating the ghost. "Miss Reimu, thanks for everything, though what does it mean that you're going to exterminate the ghost?" he asked, seeking clarification.

Reimu tilted her head slightly, looking at Hendrickson as if he had asked a strange question. "It is what it is," she replied cryptically.

Hendrickson was taken aback by her response and asked, "Sorry?"

Reimu let out a small chuckle and explained, "I am a shrine maiden, and one of my duties is to exterminate spirits and ghosts that cause trouble in the human world. That's what I mean by 'exterminating the ghost.'"

Hendrickson looked impressed by her explanation and nodded in understanding.

Reimu looked outside and exclaimed, "It's a good thing the moon is super bright tonight, yoooshh~"

She then pointed out to Hendrickson the location of the ghost's hideout, a cave in the distance. "Here it is, the hideout of the ghost," she said.

Hendrickson looked surprised and asked, "How did you find it?"

Reimu simply shrugged and said, "As a shrine maiden, I have a strong intuition for these things. It's one of the perks of the job."

Reimu smiled and said, "Though it's just a hunch."

Hendrickson's sweat dropped at her words and nervously chuckled, "Just a hunch, haha…"

Reimu continued, "I just need to draw the beast outside. It's easier to deal with it in the open rather than in an enclosed space like a cave."

Hendrickson looked a bit worried and asked, "Is it safe to draw it out? What if it attacks us?"

Reimu reassured him with a confident smile, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it. Just stay back and watch from a safe distance."

Reimu suddenly pulled out a bunch of paper and threw it into the cave, leaving a trail of blue light behind. "What's she doing?" Hendrickson asked himself.

Suddenly, a terrifying shriek echoed from the cave, causing Hendrickson to jump in fright. "What was that?!" he exclaimed.

Reimu turned to him and said calmly, "That's the sound of the ghost being drawn out. We should stay put and wait."

As they watched, the cave lit up with a bright blue light, and the sound of the creature's shrieks grew louder. Hendrickson began to feel uneasy and suggested, "Reimu-san, we should probably escape."

Reimu shook her head and said confidently, "No need. I have this under control."

Reimu's actions impressed Hendrickson, and he thought to himself, "Reimu-san is truly a good person."

Reimu noticed the worry on Hendrickson's face and advised him, "You should hide behind that tree over there so you won't get hit by any stray spells."

Hendrickson felt grateful for Reimu's concern and silently thought, "Reimu-san is truly a great person."

After a while, a creature emerged from the cave, covered in blue flames. Hendrickson watched in awe as Reimu calmly stepped forward to face the creature, ready to take it down.

As the creature emerged from the cave, Hendrickson could see that it was a vengeful spirit, its body a silhouette of a giant humanoid dripping with black ooze. He remembered that these types of ghosts grew stronger when fed fear and would continue to hunt until they killed the one they hated or the one who wronged them.

"Reimu-san, that is-" Hendrickson began to say, but was interrupted by the sight of Reimu's incredible display of power. She kicked the vengeful ghost high into the sky, and then threw a large number of paper talismans that glowed red, leaving a trail of red arcs that exploded upon impact. Hendrickson watched in amazement as the ghost was obliterated by the barrage of talismans.

"Wow," Hendrickson breathed, "I've never seen anything like that before."

With the vengeful spirit vanquished, Reimu turned to Hendrickson and asked, "Ohh... Hendrickson, the mission is finished. Let's talk about the pay."

Hendrickson was still in awe after witnessing Reimu's incredible display of power. "So this is how mikos fight," he thought to himself.

He then asked Reimu, "By the way, I saw you floating. Is that part of a miko's abilities?"

Reimu nodded with a smile, "Yes, it's one of a miko's abilities. We have many techniques to deal with spirits."

Hendrickson couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Naruhudo (I see)."

On the rooftop of the tallest tower, a small girl wearing a blue shark hoodie asked a tall woman who was dressed in a grim reaper attire, "Calli, Calli, is that fireworks over there?"

Calli, who seemed to be lost in thought, snapped out of her reverie and looked to where the girl was pointing. "Hmm...?" she murmured, her eyes scanning the horizon.

As the colorful display of fireworks illuminated the sky, a woman wearing an orange dress exclaimed, "Wooooo!!!!! The fireworks are so weird, it didn't explode in the last one."

Another girl, holding a book with tentacles, speculated, "Maybe it's a test?"

A detective girl was also watching the fireworks from a distance. As she observed the display, she thought to herself, "So you're already here, Reimu," recalling the name mentioned to her by her future counterpart.
