On Saturday, Sakuraba Yuji walked around Tokyo, searching for a monster he was interested in. The previous Friday, Yuji had been working from home since the afternoon and had interacted with Yukina and the others, raising Rinko to level 20. Yukina was now level 24, and Suzune was level 18. Monsters no longer received arrows when they leveled up past level 10. Yuji's level was 29, and he was looking forward to what he would gain when he reached level 30.
His goal was to find an SR-level monster or higher, with a setting of 71 or higher. Yuji visited Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, and Shibuya, places where many women in their teens and twenties were likely to gather. There was a fair amount of activity, but he didn't find the monster he was looking for, so he didn't capture any. He did find a few markers, all for super rare monsters, but no ultra rares. While he didn't mind super rares, he was hoping for a more exciting monster.
After nearly two hours of walking without finding what he was looking for, he started considering capturing some of Yukina and Rinko's acquaintances, like Udagawa Tomoe and Imai Lisa, whom he had wanted to add to his harem for a long time.
Finally, he found an ultra rare. She was wearing a school uniform, her long blonde hair tied in a swaying side ponytail. She had a big butt, but her legs, peeking out from under her skirt, were slender. From behind, he could tell she was a beautiful woman worthy of being an ultra rare, and his expectations soared.
He passed by her, pretending to play a world-famous monster-collecting game app to get a look at her face. He nearly gasped, but managed to hold it in. She was a talented model who could easily become a gravure idol. She had a beautiful, well-defined face with moles under both of her eyes. Her gigantic breasts looked like they were about to burst, making a particularly strong impression. Although he already had Rinko, this girl's breasts seemed to be just as big.
Yuji decided he had to have her, no matter what. Even if it meant running out of arrows, he would regret it if he didn't. His first attempt failed, but there was no need to panic. He followed her until the cooldown was over. She stopped at a traffic light, and he immediately shot an arrow of love.
"I captured her," he said.
"Alright!" Yuji pumped his fist inwardly. He immediately checked the information.

This was his third ultra rare. He was about to summon her right away but then stopped himself. He had read her history data.
"What is this...?" he couldn't help but say out loud.
The information said Mai was a second-year student at Hosea Academy's high school division with special powers that allowed her to fight against ghosts and monsters called "Phantoms." She was apparently good at close-quarters combat, using Chinese martial arts she learned from her father and infused with "the energy of the five elements."
"It feels like I'm reading the setting of a manga," Yuji muttered, scratching his black hair, confused. Just because the information was from his Love Hunter app didn't mean he understood it. He had never even dreamed that ghosts or monsters existed. He had captured a psychic or wizard, but it was so unexpected.
"But there are also crazy things in this world, like Love Hunters..." Yuji continued to read Mai's information. Hosea Academy in the Kanto region had a group called the Brain Function Error Countermeasures Office that dealt with phantoms, and Mai was a member.
"Right..." Yuji was extremely confused.
"The information on this app has been accurate so far... so I guess this is probably true."
It was surprising to find that such a beautiful woman with such a gorgeous appearance was doing such a questionable job. Now, what should he do? Yuji was at a loss.
---------
"Huh? You've captured a ghostbuster who belongs to a secret society-like organization? That's a rare girl you've captured."
"You believe me so easily?"
Confused, Yuji decided to contact Gibson for advice. On the other end of the line, Gibson sounded surprised for a moment, then laughed and said, "It seems there are strange things in this world. One of our members is a female vampire."
"...Is that okay?"
Images from J. Sheridan Le Fanu's "Carmilla" and Fuyumi Ono's "Shiki" flashed through Yuji's mind.
"She needs blood, but the amount she sucks at once isn't lethal, so it's fine."
"What about becoming a vampire if you're bitten...?"
"That won't happen. She says that sucking blood for food is different from sucking blood to increase their numbers."
"I see..."
Although Yuji was using an abnormal power called "Love Hunter," he still found it difficult to grasp the reality of a vampire.
"Is that vampire also a type of Phantom?"
"I wonder... she never called herself a Phantom, and I don't think an amateur like me can tell. You'd probably need an expert like the girl Dick-san caught."
"That's true."
"Exactly. So, Dick-san, I think you should just train her, whether she's a ghostbuster or a wizard, and don't worry about it."
The conversation with Gibson ended there. Although he was bewildered by the unusual turn of events, Yuji steeled himself, realizing he should just proceed as he normally would.
He decided to summon Mai and start training her right away. However, he suddenly paused. Yuji wanted to test the extent of the Love Hunter's power. How much control would he have over Mai, given her current likeability? Yukina, Rinko, and Suzune, his current possessions, would happily do anything he commanded. That's why he wanted to test the power of his commands on Mai.
Yuji thought about what to command her to do. Not something trivial, but an order that she normally wouldn't accept.
◇◆◇
"...Why am I doing this?"
Mai's face was flushed with shame, and she was looking down. She was at a maid cafe in Akihabara, at an event venue. She was about to participate in a limbo dance contest, part of the entertainment. However, she wasn't wearing any underwear under her school uniform. She was going to perform a limbo dance without panties or a bra.
"Hello. My name is Dick."
Her world had changed the moment she received that call on her smartphone. She felt as if an invisible hand had grabbed her soul. Following the man who called himself Dick, she was commanded to do the limbo dance without any underwear. After hearing the command over the phone, her body, against her will, had started moving toward this shop. She had thrown her underwear into a trash can at the station.
"...This is so wrong... I don't want to..."
Mai muttered, looking down. Her breathing became ragged. Unaware of Mai's state, the maid acting as the MC continued the event.
"And next up is entry number four, Kawakami Mai-san!"
The crowd cheered, excited by Mai's extraordinary beauty. The only other participants were two of the shop's maids, who were there to liven things up, but their beauty couldn't compare to Mai's.
Among the spectators watching Mai was Dick, also known as Sakuraba Yuji. However, Mai didn't know the face of her master.
This is going to be fun, Yuji inwardly chuckled with curiosity and a touch of sadism.
