There, he meets his colleagues Theo Himezuka and Kyouichi Sakaki. On his first night, Arata is given his initial mission and is shocked to discover that all the supernatural beings he once thought were fictional are real, and he is the only one who can understand their otherworldly speech. His surprise deepens when he encounters a Tengu, which greets him as the legendary Heian-era exorcist Abe no Seimei. Unfamiliar with this historical figure, Arata dismisses the title and continues working with his team, using his unique ability to resolve their cases.

Learning of a possible connection to the exorcist, Arata becomes increasingly determined to solve the mysteries surrounding the creatures he meets.
