Josh left, leaving Selen standing there, still dazed and unsure of why she was there.

She returned to the classroom in a daze, where her friend rushed over, excitedly asking, “Neo, Josh asked you to meet him in the woods! Wow! Weren’t you just chasing after his brother? Why did he ask you out?”

Selen was puzzled.

Woods? Did Josh mention something about that earlier?

Josh finally waited until after school!

Today, there was no need for him to pick up his sister. He went directly to the woods outside the school.

The sky was overcast, and even though it was noon, the woods felt even more eerie.

Drake crossed his arms and leaned against a tree nearby, observing Josh as he took out a jumble of items with a cold gaze.

He hung a net between two trees.

In his right hand, he held a frying pan, while in his left hand, he had a ritual blade. Five bronze coins hung from his chest.

Oh, and there was a spirit compass placed in front of him.

He even wore a comical hat filled with talismans—just in case someone wanted to peek inside his head.

Drake was at a loss for words. “Is all of this necessary?”

Josh replied confidently, “Why wouldn’t it be necessary? This is my first time catching ghosts on my own!”

He was determined to succeed.

He would do it!
