( Thunder Mist Mountains, Yakujin's Lair Treasure Room. )
Shiro brooms the place, again he brooms it while shivering as he tries to avoid seeing the 'Black Box', which contains the very Relic of Azi Dahaka.
"( I better focus... )" Shiro gulped in fear while he could still hear the voices from it in his head.
"( I can't understand the words, but I could tell it calls me... )"
"( It calls me despite me not knowing what language it is..., but somehow, despite not knowing the words, I could tell or interpret the means... )"
"( 'Come closer, fool'... )" Shiro interprets what he can tell while hearing it, he somehow understands without even knowing it in the first place.
"( Master Yakujin ordered me to keep cleaning this place until I got older. )"
"( She promised to take care of me while waiting for me to grow enough to be more edible... )" Shiro thinks.
"( After that, she promised to always bring rain gradually for the Village for the next Nine-to-Ten years. )" Shiro thinks as he stops.
"( At least the villagers wouldn't curse me anymore, with my death. )"
"( With it, perhaps I will be free from my grandfather's sins the Shaman Head told me, I- )"
"( *Random Voices* )"
" Huh! " Shiro looks into the Black Box, as it calls him again.
" I don't want to hear it, please be silent! "
" Or else, Master Yakujin will punish me! " Shiro innocently said that to the Black Box as it somehow talks to him through his mind.
"( *Random Voices* )" the voices spoke, but as the voice spoke, Shiro could hear it laughing.
"( *Random Scary Laugh Voices* )"
" Don't make me do it, I don't wanna! "
" I just want to do good and keep my faith in god despite what happens...! " Shiro responds to the Black Box.
"( *Random Scary Laugh Voices* )"
"( {God?} )" Shiro hears it, and suddenly the voice manages to speak the language he knew.
"( {My child...} )"
"( {None remained of them...} )"
" Blasphemy, how could you!? " Shiro angers the Black Box while the voice could be heard chuckling towards his answer.
"( {Child... tsk tsk... } )"
"( {I was there, when it all happened..} )"
"( {I survived it all...} )"
"( {You think I said this because I'm lying, pft!} )" the voice says to Shiro, making him pissed off, as he was going to throw his broom towards the Black Box, but.
"( Stop! )" a voice comes in, as its body appeared before Shiro before the young child gets pissed further.
" Gwah! " Shiro is startled as he sees a woman with a Black-Red Kimono coming out of nowhere.
" Who are you!? " Shiro screams, asking for the woman's identity which also startled the woman.
" You..., Shiro...you... "
" You... can see me? " said the woman as Shiro distances himself from her, holding his broom as he tries to defend himself.
" Stay away, who are you!? " Shiro asks which made the 'Black Box' laugh seeing it.
"( *Random Scary Laugh Voices* )"
" Relax, Shiro... "
" My name is Akafushi, I'm also Master Yakujin's servant, just like you. " Akafushi introduces herself to Shiro.
" Aka...fushi... "
" Yes, I'm sorry if I'm unable to be seen in your eyes, despite I could see you when you were first given here as a sacrifice. "
" You... you see me? " Shiro asks in his confusion and also feels guilty.
" It's alright, my dear... "
" It's not your fault that you could only see me now. "
" I'm a Spirit, after all... " Akafushi tells Shiro.
" Spirit? " Shiro asks.
" Yes, I am a being that every monster will become after they die. "
" To be simpler, essentially, I'm actually a 'Ghost', 'Monster Ghost'. " Akafushi says.
" Ghost!? " Shiro shouts as he hears it, continued by the shivering of all of his body parts.
