Thirteen Modesty

After arriving in Japan, I became a high school student named Kamiyagawa. Looking around—
Hanako crouched in the bathroom, waiting for someone to knock on the door; the Split-Mouth Woman wandered the streets with scissors in hand; Miss Mary's deathly calls echoed incessantly; the wails and barks in Inunaki Village never ceased; the Ubume searched for her long-dead child; the Aoandon smiled, enticing passersby to play with the lanterns of a hundred demons…
In a crumbling world rampant with sinister tales and malevolent spirits, Kamiyagawa set a small goal for himself:
"Defeat all the demons and monsters, and become the supreme ruler of ghosts and deities."

The season had just entered winter, and many students at Karin High School had already switched to their winter uniforms.

The girls wore shirts, cardigans, and little suits, wrapped in thick scarves, but their lower halves were clad only in pleated skirts that reached their knees, and many even bare-legged.


"Hey hey, I heard there's a new sweet shop on the pedestrian street, and their milk tea and red velvet cake are really good. Shall we give it a try?"


"Sure, I don't have any other plans anyway."


At the school gate, Ishino Sayuri and her two good friends from the literature club walked out, discussing a trip to enjoy some sweets together.


Just then, she heard someone calling her from behind.


Turning around, she saw Kamiyagawa approaching with a messenger bag slung over his shoulder.
