23. Darker alleyways

---Normal POV---

Later that day, I made my new vigilante costume and now the whole fit was done. I realized I forgot the veil for the hat yesterday, so I had to go out again and buy that. On my way, I also bought three fridges that would be delivered to my house later. I was tired of the food running out so damn fast.

After the costume was complete, I tried it on with my new appearance. And I had to admit, it looked great. Yes, the costume was inconvenient for fighting, but honestly, it couldn't be a problem. If I could fight in handcuffs, I could totally fight in a hat and a hairpin.

I was urging to fight some crime, but usually, crimes happened in the darker places of the city, at night where the city wasn't as active. Bigger fights at day wouldn't be as easy to come by, but if I were to come across something, I had my costume ready in the locked room which Doshi insisted on calling headquarters. For now, I'd stick to patrolling the alleys at night. And the case was that it wasn't night yet.

So, right now, I was on my computer doing research.

First, on the boy met we met before, Mitama Haruki. He was fifteen years old and went to Musutafu Public High School in a journalism course. His quirk was indeed something called Ghost seeing. His family consisted of his mother, Mitama Hayami, a 45-year-old teacher at Godai Elementary School with a quirk called Bubblegum that let her convert any inanimate object to chewable bubblegum, his father, Mitama Fumihito, a 43-year-old journalist working for one of Japan's most known papers with a quirk called Enhanced senses that was precisely that, and his baby sister, Mitama Kioko, that was three years old and hadn't developed a quirk yet.

His quirk was a really unique one. From even more research, I found out that he was the only one worldwide that had such a quirk. To be honest, I would go so far as to say it could nearly compete with the weakest of divine powers, from a human's perspective. However, it was impossible that it was a divine power, since that would be completely useless to divinities, the ones that possessed divine powers in heaven, or the overworld, as Doshi called it. Divinities were spirits themselves and didn't need powers to see other spirits. That I knew this was all thanks to Doshi's education.

Besides, it wasn't an impossible quirk to have. The realm of the living and the transitional real coexisted, unlike the overworld and the underworld. They existed in their shared universe that was unique to itself. Uncrossed spirits and living beings couldn't normally travel through different universes, or dimensions as I called them, due to there being divine and corrupted barriers in between dimensions. However, it didn't exist any kind of barrier between the realm of the living and the transitional realm, because in truth, they were one sole realm. The bound realm.

"... N/n... I think you're forgetting that you almost have the same quirk..." Doshi said giggling.

'OHHHHHH!!'

"BUT OF COURSE! HOW COULD I FORGET?!" I gripped my hair in frustration.

My quirk, Companion, was actually a quirk very alike Mitama's. I could see, sense, and hear spirits. Yes, it relied on the senses. Mitama had probably inherited a mutated version of his father's quirk. And I had just... forgotten that.

"Kinda can't blame you though, I told you that 300 years ago, and you haven't even seen any other spirit than me."

"I know... but still..."
