Luna: smirking Look at you, all jittery. Scaaared of ghosts? Or just me breathing down your neck?
Luna, stop that. he was still looking at his computer screen
Oh, come on now, Kenji. You know you're too scared to look at me directly.
I- it's not like that. his computer screen showed a famous painting with a ghost in it.
leans in closer, her voice dripping with sarcasm Oh really? Then what is it like, Kenji? Are you afraid that I'll scare you off with my mere presence?
It's... it's not that. It's... he turned back to his screen, which depicted a haunted mansion, just like their old HAL Infinite game.
grinning mischievously Well, well, Kenji. If it's not fear, then what is it? Let me guess, you're having visions of HAL Infinite haunting you?
No... well yeah. he spoke while staring at the screen HAL infinite only haunts those with bad deeds. So I shouldn't be seeing this.
leans back, crossing her arms Really? So you think you're above judgment, huh?
Not above... just safe. he turned back to his screen.
leans forward again, eyes narrowing Safe? Kenji, we both know that nothing is truly safe when it comes to the supernatural.
Luna, if it's not safe, then why are YOU here? he asked while looking at her
pauses for a moment, smirking Oh, Kenji. You underestimate my curiosity. I'm here to uncover the truth behind these supernatural occurrences.
And what does MANK think?
MANK? MANK is just a scared little rabbit, hiding in his hole. He doesn't understand the depth of what we're dealing with here.
That's not true. MANK is very brave. In fact, he's braver than you, Luna.
As Luna and Kenji continue their argument, a shadowy figure appears behind Kenji, watching them intently.
Who's there?! he yelled, startled by the shadowy figure.
raises an eyebrow, unfazed Well, well, looks like our little debate has attracted some unwanted attention. stands up and cracks her knuckles
a man in a red suit and fedora, holding a magical lantern, appeared. Who are you?
smirks and steps forward confidently Well, well, looks like we have a special guest. Gentlemen, I believe we have a lot to discuss.
So, you're the one responsible for all this supernatural activity. he said while staring at the man in the red suit.
steps beside Kenji, speaking with a hint of mockery Oh, Kenji, you always did have a flair for the dramatic. But I have to say, this man in the red suit really adds a touch of class to our little gathering.
his eyes narrowed I know who you are. You're from another world, aren't you? The one where HAL infinite originated!
chuckles Ah, Kenji, you've got it right. I am indeed from a world where HAL Infinite reigns supreme.
What do you want from us? he spoke while staring at the man in the red suit.
smirks and crosses her arms Well, Kenji, it seems like our friend here has some unfinished business in this world.
Unfinished business? What kind of unfinished business?
leans in closer, speaking in a low voice You see, Kenji, this man in the red suit is on a mission to unleash chaos and bring about a new era of supernatural power.
Chaos? Are you trying to destroy the world? he asked while staring at the man in the red suit.
grins mischievously Oh, come on, Kenji. Destruction of the world? That's so cliché. This guy in the red suit has much bigger plans.
Alright. Prove it. Do something.
raises an eyebrow and smirks Oh, you want proof? Well, Kenji, I just so happen to have a little demonstration prepared.
