A monk named Touji Ito. He was meditating when he heard a scream. He immediately ended his meditation. “It seems that someone screams. It’s  from Aokigahara forest.”

The monk left the Rengeji Temple. Then, he went towards the Aokigahara forest to check the source of the scream.

Before he entered the forest, he visited a mountain ranger first. He asked about the scream. A mountain ranger who saw the monk enter the ranger room greeted him. “Sensei, it’s getting late. Can I help you?”

“I just heard a loud scream. It seems like coming from the forest. That’s why I’m here.” Touji Ito said.

But there was something strange. The mountain ranger didn’t hear any screams at all. “I don’t hear someone screams.”

Even though the forest rangers didn’t hear it at all, Touji Ito was very sure of the voice. So he decided to check it out. “I’m sure there is a scream. That’s why I came to check what happened in the forest.”

“It’s getting late, let me to accompany you.” Sad ranger who offered to accompany Touji Ito.

They went into the forest and checked out for something was happening in the forest. They spent half an hour and found the smartphone laid in ground.

The monk took it. The smartphone was on and recording a video. They checked what had been recorded. “it seems like the owner forgot to turn off the phone. The camera is running.”

The contents of the video was about ground. But it was enough to prove that something bad happened to the owner.

“That means the voice is the owner of this phone.” Touji Ito said. He did not have time to save the owner of the phone that he found.

“Sensei, let me contact the family of this owner and call the police.” Said the forest ranger who swiftly acted.

Because he didn't want something bad to happen again, Touji Ito asked for help to close the forest for a while. “The forest is dangerous. Can you close it for temporarily?”

 “Okay.” The forest ranger agreed.

Meanwhile Touji Ito looked around the Aokigahara forest. He hoped to find something that caused the owner disappeared without a trace.

He closed his eyes. So he could hear more clearly and feel for what was happening. A mysterious voice entered his ear. The voice was definitely not the sound of a beast. So he was sure the sound came from a monster or goblin that appeared in the Aokigahara forest.

At first, he did not believe the news from the hiker who heard a strange sound. Those who heard it claimed that it was a goblin voice. Neither the sound of beasts.

***

Some hikers who just came down from the mountain visited the Rengeki Temple. He prayed at the temple. Meanwhile, Touji was doing meditation and hitting the muyu.

There was a hiker who had just descended the mountain. He prayed at the Rengeki Temple, too.

Afterward, he asked Touji. “Sensei, may I ask something?”

“Just say.” Touji said.

“I heard a strange sound while in the forest. I assure that it’s not the sound of a beast. Do you know what sound it is? Maybe it be the sound of a monster?”

 At that time Touji did not believe in the existence of goblins in the forest. He only thought the voice came from the human soul. “Sometimes humans hear a sound. It’s so strange. It probably come from the human heart. If the voice sound is creepy, it means he is scared.”

“So, it means my hallucination. I don’t feel that I’m the one who heard that strange voice.” It  drawn by the hiker after he got advice from Touji.

“Don’t let it continue to drown in fear. It's not good to have bad thoughts. Buddha bless."

"Okay, thank you.” The climber said goodbye.

It was when Touji heard a complaint about a strange sound that appeared in the forest. However, he didn’t has time to think that the voice was real. He thought that it was a voice from within a human being.

***

After Touji found a phone falling in the forest, he reported to the officer to check what obvious was in the forest. Who knew, there was someone who disguised as a monster to scare all visitors.

At first they thought that they could find someone who disguised as a goblin. The reality was different. There was no criminals behind it. It was a real monster.

They didn’t find anything at all. However, there was an officer who saw a very big and scary creature. He was very lucky that the creature had not seen his hiding place. So, he can survive.

The officer also said that the creature was a goblin. He was sure forthat. When he saw it, he frightened.

Other rangers were surprised to hear the word ‘Goblin’. He suspected the disappearance of owner because they were kidnapped by a criminal, not a monster. “Go… Blin…”

“There was a goblin that appeared. I can hear his voice.”

Even though, he has entered the human realm. The Goblin was from Immortal realm. So people can realize its existence and hear the voice. Except for the soul of the goblin aimed.

“Sensei, are you sure that it is a goblin? Not a criminal?”

Touji Ito explained to the ranger Aokigahara, “That’s right. Because I don’t have exorcism skills so nothing I can do. The only way is to ask the exorcist.”

Finally Touji believed that there was a big creature cycling around in the forest. It meant all the stories about a scary voice, it was not a hallucination.

But it was natural. It was difficult to beautify a not logic moment. The story was like a fairy tale. Moreover, there was someone who often deliberately to make up a story.

After he was witnessing it with his own eyes, he became believe on it.

Then he took the decision to call Exorcist to rid the goblins that appeared in the Aokigahara forest. Because there was not monk at the Rengeki Temple who has the ability to exorcism. Hence, there was no more soul to be sacrificed. “Please call also an exorcist to get rid of the goblins in this forest.”

Meanwhile, the only thing Touji Ito could do was praying. It was enough to limit the goblin’s movement. So it can not get out of the Aokigahara forest. All monks also prayed in the forest. They did it in shift. Until there was an exorcist came and managed to get rid of the goblins.

What the monk did, at least it can keep everyone’s safety. And there was not other else disappeared suddenly.
