A New Pursuer

There was a time when Wataru had been tailed by a tabloid journalist.

He never figured out how much information they had gathered or if they had discovered the truth about them.

The incident had ended in the worst way possible—with the destruction of the Jizo statue.

Fortunately, the statue was successfully repaired, leading to an unexpected new discovery.

But if things had gone just a little differently, Wataru and his group might have lost their ability to travel between worlds forever.

Since then, Air and Cloche had regretted their lack of caution.

They had doubled their vigilance against potential pursuers.

So the moment they stepped out of the house today, they immediately sensed that someone was following them.
