"Do not attempt."

That means, uh...

D-Do—

Don't copy me.

I am not!

No, that's what it means.

It's an imperative.

Thanks.

You're welcome!

Jeez! I don't know this!

Hey, stop checking the answers right away!

You won't learn anything.

You're right.

"It's okay. It's garbage, anyway." Constantinople falls.

"How long will mankind fight?" The War of the Roses.

"What fast runners they are."

How do they run so fast?

October.

The culture fair is getting close.

But a big wall separates us and the fair.

That's right. Midterms.

To be honest, I'm pretty spooked.

I have less time for studying than the others.

But I can't let that beat me.

I...

I will become a local government official!

Twenty-first Haunting It Isn't a Manga!

Let's eat!

It's been so long since we've had Kinzanji miso and fried fish.

Perfect for this time of year!

I'm so glad I'm Japanese!

This is amazing!

I could just eat forever.

Yeah, that's right—

Hase, what are you doing here?

Am I not allowed here?

No, but...

Tonight, I'm staying here.

Let's have lots of fun, Kuri!

This is so relaxing...

Hey, Antiquary.

Have anything interesting lately?

I do, but...

You do! What do you have?

What? Stop building it up and show us.

Well, I suppose it's fine.

What's fine?

A lamp?

What is this?

Put simply,

it's an omnidirectional 3D projector.

A 3D projector?

Omnidirectional?

Yes.

Akine-chan, can you erect a barrier around the living room?

Why?

Are you going to do something dangerous?

No, no.

Just in case, okay?

It's probably dangerous.

Oh, fine...

Um...

I have to study.

Don't worry. It won't take long.

In the real world, less than twenty minutes.

And it's something you might only see once in a century.

If you don't, you'll regret it.

Right...

Everyone gathered here,

it is time.

Stop building it up.

Do it quickly!

What you'll see tonight is something amazing.

Don't let it blow your minds.

Looks like some kind of chip...

We're floating!

How scary!

It's like we're riding in an invisible plane.

It's so pretty!

How wonderful!

This is great.

Worth living a long time, huh?

I...

I've never seen a 3D projection like this!

How does it work?

We aren't in our world.

We aren't?

A dinosaur!

A roc bird!

That scared me...

Wow!

So shiny! Like a fairy castle!

Looks like H.R. Giger.

Scales?!

Is that... alive?

A fish that lives in a sea of sand.

Then this is a sea?

A-Amazing.

What's really amazing is that it isn't CG.

It isn't Heaven or Hell.

Worlds like this really exist!

A Kimon Tonkou barrier?

Well done, miss.

No! My barrier was destroyed?

And so easily?

Wh-Who is this guy?

Now, I'll do this quickly.

What's wrong, Kuri?

This is bad...

I don't know what's happening, but it's bad!

Please stop it, master!

Even a billion of you could not beat him.

So please don't!

Thunder spirit! Ithaqua!

Would you stop, please?

Otherwise, I will have to remove this.

Wouldn't that be a problem for both of us?

Are you threatening me?

As expected of the Heretic of the Far Reaches. You've got guts.

Quiet...

I'm merely an ordinary antiquary. Nothing less and nothing more.

But I cannot return empty-handed.

You insist?

Yes, in the name of truth and God.

Oh, dear.

A-Antiquary?

Farewell, Yushi-kun.

Work hard in your life.

Antiquary!

Just kidding.

Let us meet again, everyone!

Antiquary?

What was that?

Congresso Vietato.

The miracle hunters.

Miracle hunters?

I see. He was an agent for the Secret Church.

I get it.

The Secret... Church?

They aren't normal priests.

They deal directly with exorcisms, spirit summoning, ghosts, and monsters.

Stuff the church does secretly.

It's like a manga.

You may not believe it,

but there are many government-run special agencies like this.

And the Secret Church leads them all.

Just as America calls itself the world's policeman,

the Secret Church wants you to think it protects the world's spiritual side.

The Congresso Vietato is one of their special agencies.

They go around and collect

things that might create "miracles" that would deceive the masses.

Looks like they were after the Antiquary.

That's why he told me to put up a barrier. Not that it worked.

That was cool, though—

Wait.

Then what will happen to the Antiquary?

You really think they'll catch him so easily?

Nothing to worry about.

But...

They caught me once, too.

I was forced to take lessons in the morning and at night,

and do three months of volunteer work.

That was rough!

Four hundred years ago, it probably would've been...

But not now.

My heart's still pounding.

I couldn't get any studying done.

That sucks.

The world's so big...

Flying dinosaurs.

Fish the size of castles.

And now, a Secret Church?

How far am I supposed to go?

As far as you can, right?

Don't make it sound so easy.

If I make it sound hard, it's still the same.

Things happen that not even the

amazing people in this building can predict.

The world is filled with threats.

Yeah.

Yes.

I'm sure a world
