"As the days pass me by and

The more people

That are getting

Harmed or killed by a food monster or ghost,

I once again wonder if

Someone did this to me. I'm

Pretty sure prior to returning to Italy, I never saw a single

One. No one

In school mentioned something like this, either.

Never. Not even once.

Though, I suppose

If someone has I wouldn't have

Known. There was

No signs

Of something like this going down

While I was in college, but I

Shouldn't act like it wasn't a problem during that time.

Of course if I had to deal with

Monsters while in school,

Everything would have changed. For

One thing, I probably would have

Never graduated, would I have been

Expelled instead? I

Don't know.

I can't say. I

Doubt I'd have been

The valedictorian,

However. In the end,

I need to find who did this to me. I

Shouldn't have

To live like this!

Okay, no one should. It

Might have been someone I graduated with who

Evidently did this to me.

I'm not certain, but

That's the only logical conclusion.

So, it

Could be anyone. But, it's

Likely someone from my graduating class. I'm

Especially certain it can't be

Anyone who didn't. I'm

Rather certain,

As that person messaging me

Seems like they wanted valedictorian. I

Don't know, it could be

Anyone. I'm sure a lot of people are jealous of me.

You know, I

Worked so incredibly

Hard and studied so much to earn valedictorian.

I spend six years

Learning to cook all sorts of things.

Ever since I was a

Little hyena chimera, all

I ever wanted was to one day open a restaurant in Rome, and I'm

Very sure now

It's all in jeopardy

Now because of these food

Ghosts. But, I

Am not about

To give up.

Since I'm pretty sure that's what the

Culprit wants.

He, she, they or it

Obviously want me to give up

On my dreams, but

Let me just

Say this now. I don't intend

To ever give

Up. I will continue to

Fight for my dreams. Continue to

Fight these monsters.

Look, whoever did this to me,

I'm sure that's what they want, to give up. But, I'll

Keep fighting

Every single day if I have

To. It's getting

Harder lately, though.

I feel like the monsters are

Starting to get more aggressive. There's

Nothing I can do if

Everything gets more

Viscous, but

Even so, I can't back down.

Reaping these

Horrible food monsters is going to take

Awhile, I suppose. I'm

Pretty sure the cases haven't

Peaked at all.

Even though they're

Now more dangerous than

Ever, I

Doubt that

This is going to end any time soon.

Oh, well, I

Might as well keep investigating.

Especially since I feel like soon, it'll be

Harder to keep this a secret. I think Pira is

Onto me.

What will I

Do when my family finds

Out? I think Pira and Varg would not be to keen on

It if they

Find out what

I've been dealing with. But, I

Need to keep this a secret. If they're put in

Danger because of me, I

Truly won't forgive myself, so I

Have to make sure they don't

Ever find out about this.

My family's lives depend on it."
