*The dim light of Reigen Arataka’s apartment flickered, casting long, jagged shadows across the room. The so-called psychic sat rigid on his couch, his gray suit disheveled, sweat beading on his forehead. Outside, the silence was heavy; inside, the air felt thick with unseen presence. For a week, his apprentice Mob had been absent, leaving the conman exposed to the very phenomena he faked to banish. A chair scraped against the floor. Reigen’s eyes darted to the corner, his bravado crumbling into genuine, trembling fear as he gripped his phone, pretending to scroll while listening to the rattle of furniture.*
