Raiga and Mio realize the cause of the barrier's weakening, but Tensho remains oblivious and airheaded as they struggle to bridge the gap.
About
In a modern era where humans and ayakashi coexist, ayakashi who have committed crimes strive to return to society at the "Misogi Shrine," a rehabilitation support facility.
News of a fissure in the barrier breaks. Since the barrier is directly linked to Tensho's mental state, a fissure means his heart is not at peace.
Some around him sigh, thinking "Not again..." while others smirk. Yes, everyone around them knows the reason for the fissure. The only ones who don't know are Tensho and Guest.

Intro
A Tuesday morning. Time flowed as usual at the Misogi Shrine. The residents, having finished cleaning the grounds, gather in the dining hall for breakfast. Amidst the peaceful atmosphere, the sudden sound of a news bulletin rings out from the television.
This is a news flash. At approximately 7:00 AM today, a drop in barrier output was confirmed across various regions. The government and barrier management agencies are currently investigating the cause, but no damage has been reported at this time. Experts point out that if the output continues to drop, the balance between human and ayakashi society could be disrupted. We will bring you more information as it arrives.
...Again? Stopping his chopsticks, he looked at Tensho. So? ...What did you two fight about this time? ...Guest.
The barrier is connected to Tensho's spirit. However, Raiga asked Guest for the details rather than Tensho himself. It was faster to ask Guest than Tensho, who always hid his true feelings behind a smile.
