In that frozen second between the standoff before fighting, I see the spiritual being's eyes flick from me to him. Our faces are unreadable, no fear, no invitational smirk. When the spiritual being's sweat landed on the ground. In that instant, he flies at me with his bare fists. Using my scythe to block his punches, his strength and power were unbelievable. Sending me flying in the air, I did a backflip in order to land safely on the ground without taking any massive amount from the impact. The spirt increasing his power, it was like I was looking at a completely different person. Quick to dodge his next attack, I made sure to end it by changing my weapon into a gun and using my special attack called "death canon". Blasting him right into the stomach, coughing out blood, he flew into the building of a store.
Touta appearing in front of the spirit. He quickly pulls out his sealing bottle to suck the spiritual being inside of it. The Reaper being amazed at how strong he is and how easily the boy took down the spirt. She knew for a fact that the boy will easily make it to the top 5 tiers in the UQ Reaper's headquarters if he was recruited out of the 10 tiers.
The boy converting back to his original form, he looked at the Reaper and picked up her up and walked his towards his house. The Reaper being too weak to fight back, she decided to let the boy take him.
Taking him to his house, Touta's dad nor sister were home. Going upstairs to his bedroom, he threw the Reaper on to his bed and asked her who she was and everything about where she came from. The Reaper looking at the boy, she explained that she was a part of the UQ Reaper that is an organisation full of people with spiritual powers. Spiritual powers or for short spirit power is the use of a person's energy being transferred into power, so that they can use their power. Which is what Touta and the evil spirit were using against each other. But unlike Touta, in order to have spiritual powers, you have to give their lives to the ruler of the spirit world named "Azrael". By doing so, he will grant you access to use spiritual powers to protect the human world and help guide the spirits. Azrael also referred as The Grim Reaper since he decides if we die or not once you give him your life. He also is a great example of what humans would call "God" in the spirit world. But outside it, he is limited in power.

"What is a spirit world?" Touta ask her.
The spirit world is a society full of those that have died, that can stay there for free and live a peaceful life. But becoming a Reaper, we guard the earth by showing spirits that are lost a place where they can be found, but the only problem is those that spirits been lost for too long. We call them "demons".
"Demons?" Touta said.
They're spirits that lost control over their soul since the more longer you are in the human world without a body and regret your life choices, the quicker you turn into a monster. The more the demon stay on earth and regret his choices, the more their power will increase, which is why the spirit Touta was fighting power been increased during the time.
The Reaper telling Touta everything he wanted to know. The Reaper asked Touta to join the UQ Reaper because they need more strong people like him. Touta declining the offer because he wanted to stay with his sister and father. The Reaper warned Touta that they will send Reapers that are stronger than her to collect him, Touta accepting the challenge without second thought. The Reaper was fully healed and was ready to report back to her HQ. Touta threwing her the spirit bottle of the ghost and asked The Reaper her name. The Reaper told him her name was "Reza" and the boy told her his name was "Touta". In that one day, they both hold hands in an agreement, telling each other that the next time they meet, they will be stronger than they were before.
