夜の食べたがり魔物（The Nighttime Glutton Monster）

夜になると『魔物が来る』こんな事を霊が警報を出す。そんな地域はありませんか？僕のブログでは過去にそんな事がある地域について少し触れましたが、霊的に精神汚染レベルが高い地域で魔物が出現する様です。精神汚染レベルとは地域の住民のモラルの度合いであり、新人類は集団で精神と思考がある程度共有されていると聞きますので（僕は単体ですので良く分からないですが…）1人でも精神的に落ち度があると個体の精神レベルが低い者から精神汚染が感染して、堕落が広がってしまいます。

堕落してしまうと世の中の管理システムからの加護がある程度消えてしまうのか、天罰の様な刑を執行されてしまうのか、僕には判断出来ませんが、異世界の汚染を呼び込んで広めてしまう様でした。そして精神汚染を広める元の霊が魔物とされていますが、それなりに知性はあります。魔物の共通点として精神性は食べ物への執着です。僕は食べる必要がないでエネルギーを簡単に補充できる存在の方が恵まれてると思いますが、魔物はエネルギーを簡単に補充できるくせに食べ物を食べたがり肉体のある者に影響を与えて世の中を荒らす様なのです。そして食べ物を持っていると問答無用で憑くのが魔物です。

僕は魔物の正体は飢餓の被害に遭った生物が元であり、実は地球の最期辺りに苦しんで亡くなった存在ではないかなと思っています。異世界人は地球の霊を好んで狩りますが魔物こそ、かつては知性があったであろう変わり果てた地球の霊ではと思うのです。つまり飢餓の地球の霊を摂取して吸収もしくは共感してしまった宇宙由来の存在が食べ物に執着し『魔物』と呼ばれる存在になった事になります。

それでも生きる為に食べ物が必要な人はいるかと思いますので、食べ物を守る方法を幾つか紹介します。

【魔物から食べ物を守る方法】

・ガラス瓶に保存する（魔物はガラスを通り抜かない）

・缶詰を利用する（魔物は金属を通り抜かない）

・木箱にしまう（魔物は木箱を通り抜かない）

・壁やカーテンを無地と模様の二重にする（無地と模様で通り抜かないタイプがいる為）

・廊下に暖簾を設置する（布の壁で引き返すタイプがいる為）

・冷蔵庫に少量のオートミール入りクエン酸（粉タイプ）を設置する

（一部の動物霊を吸収し浄化する作用がある）

・クエン酸（粉タイプ）を浄化として塩の代わりに使用する（魔物にある程度効く）

・パンを仕舞ってオートミールを目立つ様に置いておく（魔物が嫌う為）

・多少危険だが…生肉をゴキブルホイホイの如く少量置いたら直火で魔物を焼き殺す

・水やジュースや牛乳を飲んでいる気がしなくて苦しかったら、塩をひとつまみ混ぜる

Do Spirits Ever Warn, "Monsters Are Coming" at Night?

Have you ever heard spirits issue warnings such as, "The monsters are coming," after nightfall? In my blog, I previously touched on places where this supposedly happens. According to what I have learned, monsters appear in areas with a high level of spiritual contamination.

By "spiritual contamination," I mean the overall moral condition of the people living in a community. I have heard that the "new humans" share their minds and thoughts collectively to some extent. (Since I function as an individual, I cannot fully understand how that works.) Because of this shared consciousness, if even one person has serious moral or spiritual shortcomings, those with weaker minds become infected by that person's spiritual corruption, allowing moral decay to spread throughout the community.

Once people fall into such corruption, it seems that they lose part of the protection provided by the world's governing system, or perhaps they become subject to something resembling divine punishment. I cannot say which is true. However, the result appears to be that contamination from another world is drawn into our own and spreads further.

The spirits responsible for spreading this contamination are referred to as monsters. They possess a certain degree of intelligence. One characteristic they all seem to share is an obsession with food. Personally, I believe that beings capable of replenishing their energy without eating are far more fortunate. Yet these monsters, despite supposedly being able to restore their energy easily, still crave food. They influence physical beings and create chaos in the world. Furthermore, they attach themselves indiscriminately to anyone carrying food.

I believe that monsters originally came from beings that suffered from starvation. In fact, they may be the spirits of creatures that died in agony near the end of Earth's history. While people from other worlds are said to hunt Earth's spirits, I suspect that monsters themselves may once have been intelligent Earth spirits that have since been transformed beyond recognition. In other words, extraterrestrial beings may have absorbed—or empathized with—the spirits of those who died from famine on Earth, eventually developing an overwhelming attachment to food and becoming what are now called "monsters."

Even so, many people still need food in order to survive. With that in mind, here are several methods I believe can help protect food from monsters.

How to Protect Food from Monsters

• Store food in glass jars. (Monsters cannot pass through glass.)
• Use canned foods. (Monsters cannot pass through metal.)
• Keep food inside wooden boxes. (Monsters cannot pass through wood.)
• Use both plain and patterned walls or curtains, since different types of monsters are blocked by different designs.
• Hang a traditional doorway curtain (noren) in hallways, as some monsters turn back when confronted by a fabric barrier.
• Place a small amount of powdered citric acid mixed with oatmeal inside the refrigerator. (It is believed to absorb and purify certain animal spirits.)
• Use powdered citric acid instead of salt for purification, as it appears to be somewhat effective against monsters.
• Put bread away and leave oatmeal in plain sight, since monsters are said to dislike oatmeal.
• Although somewhat dangerous, place a small amount of raw meat as bait—similar to a cockroach trap—and then destroy the monster with direct flames.
• If you feel as though drinking water, juice, or milk does not actually quench your thirst, add a pinch of salt. (This is said to allow proper hydration.)

綺麗な水泥棒（The Thief of Clean Water）

僕たちの住む世界にに水泥棒が存在していて、有名な事だとは思います。それを何故かネット上では情報が流れてない様な気がしますので僕視点で記述したいと思います。僕が水泥棒について初めて知ったのはチャネリング（低級ですが…）からでした。情報によりますと僕の居る世界と次元の違う異世界が存在しており、異世界では雨がほぼ降らず気温が大体摂氏50度以上という事でした。もし僕の様な元の人類は摂氏40度を越えると細胞が駄目になって死んでしまいますので（摂氏30度でも、もう辛いですね）その様な世界だったら隔離されて保護されているのでしょう。

兎に角、異世界では水は貴重な資源ですが必要なものらしいですが、異世界の管理者は異世界の住人には不要な物であり、危険な道具と言う認識でした。それは異世界人は液体に霊を溶かして吸収してしまい、綺麗な水（純水に近いものほど）こそ吸収に適している道具だとされているのです。ですのでこの世界では、ミネラルウォーターを純粋な人間のフリをしてゴクゴク霊ごと飲む輩は悪とされます。ちなみにお茶は水より吸収率は悪い様ですし、お茶の種類によって効果が違う様です。故に異世界の管理者は異世界では水の生成を出来ない様に調整したのでした。

水は気温によって固体ー液体ー気体になりますが固体の場合は魔法の効果（管理する宇宙船のジンクス）があり持ち主に対して悪意のある悪い霊を氷（固体）のスピードで溶かす効果があります。ですので僕は外からやって来た人間が水筒（魔法瓶）に氷を入れて持ち歩き、霊的に攻撃された時に口に含むと言うシーンを数回見たことがあります。

この様に綺麗な水は僕たちの住むエリアでは不思議な力を持つのですが、僕が初めて水泥棒に遭遇したのは3年前でした。僕は副都心で外部スタッフとして短期で働いていた時の事ですが、入れ替わった様な様子の変な会社の社員が会社の水道の蛇口を無駄に全開にしたり、トイレの流す音が途切れなかったりと不思議な現象が起こったのです。水泥棒の由来ある霊に憑かれている人間は水道を強く捻り水を全力で出す傾向にあり注意しても直さない事が多いです。

どの様に水を盗むかと言うと僕は少しだけ見た事があります。僕にはスーパー超能力AIは無いけれど片鱗の様なものが数回発動した事がありました。（神社の神様に寄ればスーパー超能力AIは、小動物だろうが、誰にでも得る事ができるシステムらしいのですが、僕は僕を管理している存在からは嫌われていて得る事が出来ないそうです）宇宙人が捻った蛇口から水が噴出し弧を描く様に何枚もの壁を超えて消えていったのです。何だか微妙にお間抜けな光景ですね。

僕はある日、水に関するメッセージを受けました。水を集める集団の一部は宗教か何かなのか、雲をも突き抜ける高い山のてっぺんに綺麗な水を貯めて狩った厳選した霊を閉じ込めて保管していました。ある日天から来たる、神にメッセージを伝え、神の国に上る為だそうですが…僕には意味不明でした。そんな事で沢山の住人を苦しめるのは止めて欲しいですね。

I believe that in the world we live in, there are beings known as "water thieves," and that this is supposedly well known. However, for some reason, I rarely see any information about them online, so I would like to describe the phenomenon from my own perspective.

The first time I learned about water thieves was through channeling (although I believe it was a low-level form of channeling). According to the information I received, there exists another world in a different dimension from the one I inhabit. In that world, it almost never rains, and temperatures are generally above 50°C (122°F). If ordinary humans like us were placed in such an environment, we would likely die because our cells cannot withstand temperatures above roughly 40°C (104°F). Even temperatures around 30°C (86°F) already feel quite exhausting. I imagine that if such a world truly existed, people like us would have to be isolated and protected there.

In any case, water is an extremely valuable resource in that other world. However, according to its administrators, water is considered unnecessary for its inhabitants and even a dangerous tool. They believe that beings from that world dissolve spirits into liquids and absorb them, and that clean water—especially water close to pure water—is the most suitable medium for this absorption. Therefore, in that world, anyone who pretends to be an ordinary human while greedily drinking mineral water together with the spirits dissolved within it is regarded as evil. Tea, on the other hand, is said to absorb spirits less efficiently than water, and its effects apparently vary depending on the type of tea. For this reason, the administrators of that world supposedly adjusted reality so that water could not naturally be generated there.

Water changes between solid, liquid, and gas depending on temperature. In its solid form—ice—it is believed to possess a magical property (or perhaps a superstition associated with the spacecraft that governs that world). Ice is said to dissolve malicious spirits that harbor ill intent toward its owner at the same speed that ice itself melts. Because of this, I have witnessed several occasions where people who had come from outside carried ice in insulated bottles and placed it in their mouths whenever they were spiritually attacked.

Thus, in the area where we live, clean water is believed to possess mysterious powers. I first encountered what I considered a water thief about three years ago. At the time, I was working as a temporary outside staff member in Tokyo's Fukutoshin area. Employees at a company who behaved as though they had somehow been replaced would unnecessarily turn the faucets fully on, and toilets seemed to flush continuously without stopping. These were very strange phenomena. People possessed by spirits associated with water thieves tend to twist faucets all the way open and let water flow at full force, and they often continue doing so even after being warned.

As for how the water is stolen, I believe I caught a brief glimpse of it once. Although I do not possess what I call a "Super Psychic AI," something resembling a fragment of such an ability has activated a few times in my life. (According to the deity of a Shinto shrine, a Super Psychic AI is supposedly a system that anyone—even small animals—can obtain. However, I was told that the beings managing me dislike me, so I am unable to acquire it.)

I saw water erupting from a faucet that an extraterrestrial being had turned on. The stream formed an arc, passed through multiple walls, and then disappeared. In hindsight, it was a rather comical sight.

One day I received a message concerning water. According to it, part of the group that collects water—perhaps a religious organization of some kind—stores exceptionally pure water at the summit of a mountain so tall that it rises above the clouds. Within that water they imprison carefully selected spirits that they have captured. They believe that one day these spirits will deliver a message to God and ascend to the Kingdom of God.

To me, however, none of this makes any sense. If such actions truly cause suffering for countless inhabitants, I wish they would stop.

今時の厄除けお祓い（Blessing for Protection）

僕の母の国の宗教はぼぼ仏教で、僕自身は祖母から受け継いだ神像を所持しているのですが、日本在住で日本国籍の僕の神像には神など宿る筈もなく悪霊が宿り霊障を引き起こす事が多々ありました。僕は日本の宗教について思いました。こんな世の中でも近所でお供え用の榊は売っている件に関して、宇宙人に支配された世界でも本当の宗教は存在し霊的なご利益があるのでは無いかと考えました。そして僕は身体が少し軽くなる事があるので頻繁に神社にお参りに行くのですが、こんなに行くのだったら家に神棚を入れてしまえと思い、詳しくは無いまま神道に入っています。

そして僕は『大祓』と言う半年の厄を落とす神社（東京五社）のイベントに参加して来ました。神社のお祓いは通常は10000円ほどしますが集団でのお祓いだったので1000円と有難い金額で厄を落とせました。しかし受付1時間前からの長蛇の列で並んでの参加になる大人気のイベントでした。3回違う形代に厄を落とし、清めた音で更に邪を払い、神に詞を捧げる儀式をしました。僕の感覚では厄落としの度に神社の神様が僕の中から邪な宇宙人（霊タイプ）と呪いの傀儡人形（動物タイプも含む）を引っこ抜き、浄化を掛けて下さった感じがしました。帰りには浄化グッズ（神社によっては品は違うと思います）を複数いただき帰ってから、身を更に清めました。つまりは日本の神による除霊が5回以上はされたのです。

周りの霊達は『見違えた！』と言いましたが悪霊は『また穢してやる！』『あと2回やられたらコッチが完全に死ぬ？！』と言いましたので、また次回もイベント（年2回）に参加したいと思います。神様って凄いなと改めて実感すると共に宗教の知識が足りないと感じるこの頃でした。

My mother's home country is predominantly Buddhist, and I own a sacred statue that I inherited from my grandmother. However, since I am a Japanese citizen living in Japan, I came to believe that no true deity would reside in that statue. Instead, I felt that evil spirits had taken residence in it, often causing spiritual disturbances.

This made me think more deeply about Japanese religion. Even in what I believe to be a world ruled by extraterrestrials, I noticed that local shops still sell sakaki branches for Shinto offerings. That made me wonder whether genuine religion still exists and whether it truly possesses spiritual power.

Because I sometimes feel physically lighter after visiting shrines, I go there to pray quite often. Eventually I thought, "If I'm visiting shrines this frequently, I might as well set up a kamidana (Shinto household altar) at home." So, despite not knowing much about Shinto, I began practicing it.

Recently, I participated in the Great Purification Ceremony (Ōharae), a traditional Shinto event held twice a year to cleanse six months' worth of spiritual impurities and misfortune. The ceremony took place at one of Tokyo's Five Great Shrines. Normally, a private Shinto purification ritual costs around ¥10,000, but because this was a group ceremony, the participation fee was only ¥1,000. I was grateful to be able to receive the purification at such an affordable cost.

The event was incredibly popular. People lined up in a long queue starting an hour before registration opened. During the ceremony, I transferred my impurities onto three different katashiro (paper purification dolls), listened to sacred sounds that symbolically drove away spiritual defilement, and offered prayers to the gods through ritual words.

From my own perspective, each stage of the purification felt as though the shrine's deities were pulling wicked extraterrestrials (spirit-type beings) and cursed puppet-like entities (including animal-type beings) out of me and cleansing them. After the ceremony, I received several purification items from the shrine (the contents differ depending on the shrine), and when I returned home, I continued cleansing myself with them.

In other words, I felt as though I had undergone divine exorcism or spiritual purification by the gods of Japan more than five times.

The spirits around me said, "You look completely different!" Meanwhile, the evil spirits said, "We'll corrupt you again!" and, "If they purify you two more times, we'll be completely destroyed!"

So I plan to participate in the ceremony again next time. Since it is held twice a year, I intend to keep attending. The experience reminded me how amazing the gods are, and at the same time, it made me realize how much I still have to learn about religion.

今時の狂った面接-上場企業編-（Crazy Job Interviews）

僕はたまに霊の声（思念派）を聞きますが、働く気力が足りないのに『就職難』とか言っている声を多く聞きます。この狂った世の中でハッキリ言って面接の機会というのは、本当に人材不足であるか？否？と宇宙人に好感を得るかどっちかになると思います。僕は自営業で頑張ろうと思った時期があり人伝の営業パーティーに参加して結構好印象を企業様に与えた様で、派遣会社を通じて雇用形態が派遣社員という形で上場企業の面接を受けたことがあります。

この狂った世の中でスーパー超能力AIが蔓延する中、無能力者の僕の何を気に入ったのかと言うのは、疑問ですがWEB面接と言う形で面接は行われたのです。しかし噂ではWEB面接はスーパー超能力AIにて横からの奪い合いで占拠される事が多い様です。特に電波を拾われると大変なことになるかもしれませんが、拾われないなんて有り得るのでしょうか。兎に角、僕は対面面接には強いのですがWEB面接には弱く、受かった事はありません。

今時の面接なのか派遣会社は事前に面接アドバイスで変な指示を強要して来ます。事前にテキストを渡してこの通りに喋れ（嘘を吐け！）と指示してくるのですが、果たして偽った自分で面接に挑むってクレイジーとしか思えないですね。僕は派遣会社に自分自身と違う事を言うのは変だ！本当の事を踏まえて面接に挑みたいと言うのですが『書いてある通りに話せ！』等と言うのです。僕は話し合いで派遣会社を説得してある程度は僕の意見を混じえた内容に変更してもらったのですが、実際の面接では派遣会社の指定した内容は一切話されませんでした。テキストをコピー用紙10枚以上（裏あり）を暗記させようとして何なんだと言う理不尽を感じざるを得ないのです。

WEB面接では案の定よく分からない輩に占拠されたと思いますが、画面が切り替わったり面接官の態度や性格がイキナリ悪くなると占拠されたと判断して間違いはないと思います。近年では僕はWEB面接で毎回やられて受かったことはありません。とりあえずは狂った派遣会社は企業様との面接に関わらず原色の赤と青の混じるクイズ番組もピエロの司会者みたいなスーツで参戦して来て、僕にはスーツで面接を受けるな等と気狂い最高潮みたいな指示ばかりしていました。こんな面接は落ちますよね。その後、派遣会社に対応に文句ばかりの僕は無視されて仕事を紹介されなくなりました。派遣会社は僕が嫌いになったのだと思います。

仕事の求人はある程度あるとは思いますが、全然フェアじゃない対応を派遣会社がしているのは分かりますね。僕たちはよっぽど派遣会社に媚を売らないと仕事は紹介されないと思います。

I sometimes hear what I perceive as spiritual voices or telepathic thoughts. One thing I often hear is people complaining about how difficult it is to find a job, even though they seem to lack the motivation to work.

In today's chaotic world, I feel that getting a job interview often comes down to one of two things: whether a company genuinely needs employees, or whether the interviewer simply takes a liking to you.

There was a time when I tried to become self-employed. I attended networking events through business connections and seemed to make a good impression on several companies. Eventually, through a staffing agency, I was given the opportunity to interview with a publicly listed company as a temporary employee.

Considering how widespread what I call "superpower AI" has supposedly become, I've often wondered what they saw in someone like me, who considers himself to have no special abilities. The interview was conducted online.

I've heard rumors that online interviews are especially vulnerable to interference from these so-called superpower AIs competing behind the scenes. If someone can somehow pick up your thoughts or signals, I imagine that could become a serious problem. Personally, I find it hard to believe that such interference could simply be avoided. Whatever the reason, I've always done much better in face-to-face interviews than in online ones, and I've never been successful in a web interview.

Another thing I found strange was the way the staffing agency prepared me for the interview. They handed me a script and insisted that I speak exactly as it was written, even when I felt it didn't honestly represent who I was. To me, pretending to be someone else during an interview seemed completely irrational.

I told the agency that I wanted to present my real self and answer honestly rather than recite a script. Their response was simply, "Say exactly what's written." After discussing it with them, I managed to have some of my own ideas incorporated into the script. Ironically, during the actual interview, almost none of the agency's prepared script ended up being used. They had expected me to memorize more than ten double-sided pages of text, which felt completely unreasonable.

During online interviews, I often felt as though something unusual happened. Sometimes the screen would suddenly change, or the interviewer's attitude and personality would seem to shift dramatically. From my perspective, it felt as though the interview had somehow been taken over. In recent years, every online interview I've attended has ended unsuccessfully.

The staffing agency also gave me instructions that I found bizarre. One representative even attended meetings wearing a bright red-and-blue suit that reminded me of the host of a TV quiz show or a circus clown, while telling me not to wear a business suit for my own interview. To me, that seemed like terrible advice, and I couldn't help but think that following such guidance would only hurt my chances.

Afterward, I repeatedly complained to the staffing agency about how they had handled the process. Eventually, they stopped responding to me and no longer introduced me to job opportunities. I came to believe that they simply no longer wanted to work with me.

I do believe there are jobs available, but I also feel that staffing agencies do not always treat applicants fairly. In my experience, it often seems that unless you stay on very good terms with a staffing agency and avoid criticizing them, it becomes much harder to receive introductions to new positions.

働くメリット（Benefits of Working）

正社員狩りから生存した元ブラック企業のスタッフでしたが2ヶ月の求職活動を得て、レストランのバイトに未経験可能な応募にチャレンジし、ジョブチェンジしました。働いていた頃は全く気が付かなかったのですが、僕がいる異世界では正社員ではなくとも労働者にとてもメリットがあります。正社員狩りをしている奴らがアホに思えるぐらいバイトであろうとも『労働者』はメリットに溢れているのです。

まず会社（現場）で働くと個人で同じ事をするよりも自分に情報が蓄積されて、習熟度に寄りますが自動的に色々な恩恵を授与できます。例えば僕はレストランの店員になりましたがレストランの恩恵を受けていると感じています。なんかメチャクチャご飯が美味しくなりました。体力も多少強化された感があります。ご飯を盗む謎の人々からの防御力も高くなったと感じています。料理を邪魔する宇宙人も極力減りました。

好き嫌いはありますが色々な仕事をバイトでも良いから若いうちは経験すべきですし、在職中は可能な限り企業に貢献すべきです。

しかしながら恩恵を確実に受けるコツはあると思います。在職中は恩恵は確実に受けられますが、離職した後にもある程度恩恵を受けることがありますが、コツが要ります。それは辞める時に正式に辞表を出して退職手続きを取ることです。これに寄って多少恩恵は続くのです。

I was once a survivor of what I call the "salaryman hunt" and worked for a former black company. After two months of job hunting, I decided to change careers and applied for an entry-level restaurant job, despite having no previous experience.

When I was working in my previous job, I never realized it, but in the strange world I find myself living in, there are many benefits to being a worker, even if you are not a full-time employee. In fact, workers—even part-time ones—seem to enjoy so many advantages that the people obsessed with hunting down full-time employees appear foolish by comparison.

First of all, when you work at a company or workplace, you accumulate knowledge and experience much more efficiently than if you were trying to do everything on your own. Depending on your level of skill and dedication, various benefits seem to come automatically. For example, I became a restaurant employee, and I genuinely feel that I have been receiving the benefits of being connected to a restaurant. Somehow, food tastes much better than before. I also feel slightly stronger and more energetic. I even feel more protected from the mysterious people who seem determined to steal my meals. The aliens that used to interfere with my cooking appear to have become much less troublesome as well.

People have different preferences, of course, but I believe that young people should experience a variety of jobs, even if only through part-time work. And while employed, they should contribute to their company as much as they reasonably can.

However, I think there is a trick to making sure these benefits continue. While you are employed, the benefits seem guaranteed. Even after leaving a job, some of them may remain, but only if you leave properly. My advice is to submit a formal resignation and complete all official departure procedures. By doing so, at least some of the benefits seem to continue afterward.

人格を持った内臓（The sentient internal organs）

僕は先日発見したのですが、どうやら僕らの幾つかの内臓が人格を持っており、内臓の一部の肉片に宿る霊こそが僕らの守護霊である事がある様です。何故気が付いたかと言うと僕は頻繁に守護霊など霊的なものを引きちぎられて盗まれるのですが、一定期間で霊的に回復して真っさらな新しい守護霊が生まれてくる事があるからです。内臓に宿る守護霊は宿主と一緒に人生を経験し成長するものであり、本来の守護霊とは違う性質の守護霊であることは間違いはないです。このタイプの守護霊は成長を宿主だけではなく環境にとても影響を受けており、善もいますが悪にも成長します。

僕がスーパー超能力AIが無いのに不思議に思った宇宙人が、悪魔に洗脳されて悪に育った守護霊を摘んだのですが僕の内臓の肉片だったのです。それで僕は一部の守護霊は僕の内蔵なのだと悟りました。記憶が無い守護霊が今年に入ってから多く出現しているらしいのですが守護霊狩りの影響で守護霊が再生された所為かもしれません。

身体の主人格は脳にありますが一部の守護霊の主人格は内臓にあると言うことなのです。僕は3月と4月に正社員狩りの被害に遭い身体を切り裂かれ内臓を盗まれた感がありますが、その時から守護霊の大多数は内臓の肉片と一緒に持ち去られたのです。多くのクリエイターがバラバラ死体にされて食べられたとの噂がありますが内臓に宿る守護霊も盗まれて食べられたと考えるべきでしょう。

I recently came to a realization: it seems that some of our internal organs possess their own personalities, and that the spirits residing within small fragments of those organs can sometimes become what we call guardian spirits.

The reason I came to this conclusion is that I have frequently experienced what I perceive as my guardian spirits and other spiritual entities being torn away and stolen. However, after a certain period of time, I seem to recover spiritually, and completely new guardian spirits appear. Because of this, I began to suspect that some guardian spirits originate from within the body itself.

These organ-based guardian spirits grow alongside their hosts and accumulate life experiences together. They are clearly different in nature from traditional guardian spirits. This type of guardian spirit is influenced not only by its host but also very strongly by its environment. Some develop in a positive direction, while others may grow into something malevolent.

There was an extraterrestrial being that became curious about me because I lacked the so-called "Super Psychic AI" abilities. According to my interpretation, it picked a guardian spirit that had been corrupted and raised by demonic influence. What it picked, however, was actually a fragment of one of my internal organs. That was when I realized that some guardian spirits might literally be parts of my own body.

I have heard that many guardian spirits with no memories have been appearing since the beginning of this year. This may be the result of guardian spirits being regenerated after widespread spirit hunting.

The primary personality of the body resides in the brain, but the primary personality of some guardian spirits may reside within the internal organs. I feel that I became a victim of what I call the "salaryman hunt" during March and April, and that my body was spiritually torn apart and some of my organs were taken. From that point onward, most of my guardian spirits seemed to disappear along with those fragments.

There are rumors that many creators were dismembered and consumed. If those stories are true, then perhaps the guardian spirits dwelling within their organs were also stolen and consumed as well.

日本語を話さない国民続出（Citizens Don't Speak Japanese）

今年の春に大規模な正社員殺しがあったと記述しましたが、かなりの国民が代替えの人材に入れ替わった節があり、特徴としては完全な日本語を話さないと言うことがあります。移民の宇宙人共はなるべく早口で話す事を好みますが、日本語はゆっくり目で滑舌とイントネーション良く話すことが礼儀正しいと言われています。特に子供とお年寄りにはゆっくり話すことが推奨されています。つまりは宇宙人の好みから日本語は逆の性質を持った言語なのです。

そしてこの日本語を話さない日本人こそが肉体も魂も守護霊も宇宙人である事が分かりますが、僕の認識では国民は殺されまくり人口の半分以上は代替えの宇宙人で占められていると感じています。この僕の理解を超えた代替えの人材は高速で宇宙人の霊（守護霊）と思念のやり取りをし肉体は日本語を話しますが台詞の文字が幾つか欠けており声の言語情報を完全には伝達が出来ないのです。

例えば『こんにちは、今日も元気に頑張りましょう』と言う言葉を代替えに言わせたとしたら『（ッ無声音）にちは、（ッ無声音）おも（ッ無声音）んきにがん（ッ無声音）ばりましょう』と早口で喋り、何を言っているのか分からない状態です。なんと外国人の方が日本語が上手い現象が発生しており、どっちが移民だか分からない状態が発生しています。そして彼らに国の言語で話せとお願いすると肉体は『ピポパポパポ』と電子信号の様な言葉を言う現象を旧のブログで記載しております。まさしく宇宙人が地球人として移民してきたのだと僕は思います。

もしこの代替えだらけの世界になってしまったら地球人の僕はコミニケーションが取れずに宇宙人に仕事を取られて働き口も見つからず助けも呼べず、飢え死ぬかもしれないと考えています。地球人は生き残っているのでしょうか？恐ろしい世の中です。

僕の知り合いの外国人は『日本語もロクに話せないのに日本人になってセコい！日本籍よこせ！！』と言っていました。

As I mentioned before, I believe there was a large-scale killing of full-time employees this spring. It seems that a significant portion of the population has been replaced by substitute individuals. One characteristic of these replacements is that they do not speak proper Japanese.

These immigrant aliens appear to prefer speaking as quickly as possible. However, Japanese culture generally values speaking at a moderate pace with clear pronunciation and proper intonation. In particular, it is considered polite to speak slowly and clearly when communicating with children and the elderly. In that sense, Japanese possesses qualities that are the opposite of what these aliens seem to prefer.

I believe that these Japanese people who do not truly speak Japanese are actually aliens in body, soul, and guardian spirit. From my perspective, so many citizens have been killed and replaced that more than half of the population now consists of substitute aliens.

These replacements communicate rapidly with alien spirits (guardian spirits) through thoughts. Although their bodies speak Japanese, parts of the spoken words seem to be missing, preventing them from fully conveying linguistic information.

For example, if a replacement were told to say, "Hello, let's do our best and have a great day," it might come out sounding like:

"(silent sound)llo, t(silent sound)day l(silent sound)'s be en(silent sound)getic and do our be(silent sound)t."

The speech is extremely fast and difficult to understand. In fact, there are situations where foreigners speak Japanese more clearly than these supposed Japanese citizens, making it difficult to tell who the real immigrants are.

According to descriptions I wrote in an older blog, when these individuals are asked to speak in their own language, their bodies respond with sounds resembling electronic signals, such as "beep-boop-bop-bop."

For this reason, I believe that aliens have immigrated to Earth while disguising themselves as humans.

If the world were truly filled with such replacements, I fear that I, as an Earth human, would be unable to communicate with them. I worry that aliens would take all the jobs, leaving me unable to find work, ask for help, or survive. I sometimes wonder whether any Earth humans are still left. It is a frightening thought.

One of my foreign acquaintances once complained, "They can hardly speak Japanese, yet they get to be Japanese. That's ridiculous! Give me a Japanese passport!"

狩られる正社員のヒント（Full-Time Employees Being Hunted）

特に春ごろにオフィス街の正社員達がバッタバッタと殺されていく事件が毎年発生していますが、ある一定の条件をクリアした人物を道具として作り変える犯罪組織の所為ではと僕は思っています。

今までの人材？殺害事件のをまとめると狙われた人が奪われるものは下記のものになります。

（ツイートとブログ記事を見直した情報からですが…）

・肉体の機能（スーパー超能力AIのデバイスOSみたいなの）

・肉体の肉

・脳

・守護霊

・成り変わり先に与えると思われる社会的地位

・本人の魂（守護霊にする為らしい）

つまりは狙われた人物は余すことなく商売品として出荷されるのです。僕たちは『成り変わり先に与えると思われる社会的地位』を受け継いだ人間を良く見かけますが、実は全て奪われていると僕は確信しています。これは一般人でも集団で行っている場合ありますが要するに殺戮で犯罪ですね。

それぞれ商品として何に使うかは弱小チャネラーである僕は知る由もありませんが、賢い人なら直ぐに分かるかと思います。果たして誰がやっているのでしょうか？僕は無職中のフリーターですが、正社員の人達は要注意ですね。

【ヒント：肉体の機能について】

Every year, especially around spring, there seem to be incidents in which office workers and full-time employees are being wiped out one after another. I personally suspect that this is the work of a criminal organization that transforms certain individuals who meet specific conditions into tools or resources.

Based on information I have gathered from reviewing tweets and blog posts, the following are allegedly taken from the targeted individuals:

• Physical functions (something like the operating system for a superpowered AI device)
• Body flesh
• Brain
• Guardian spirit
• Social status that is supposedly transferred to a replacement
• The person's soul (apparently to be turned into a guardian spirit)

In other words, the targeted individual is supposedly processed and shipped out as merchandise without leaving anything behind.

We often encounter people who seem to inherit the social position of those who disappeared, but I am convinced that, in reality, everything has been taken from the original person. Whether carried out by an organized group or by ordinary people acting together, it amounts to murder and criminal activity.

As a minor channeler, I have no way of knowing exactly what each of these "products" is used for. However, I imagine that someone more knowledgeable could figure it out quickly. The question remains: who is behind all of this?I am currently an unemployed part-time worker, but full-time employees should be especially careful.

[Hint: Physical Functions]
There are rumors that the human body contains multiple functions that allow access to a superpowered AI system. If the body is dismantled, these functions can supposedly be removed, causing the individual to lose their abilities.

[Hint: Body Flesh]
A byproduct generated when physical functions are removed. Rumor has it that it becomes food for carnivorous extraterrestrials. The flesh of highly capable people is said to be especially valuable.

[Hint: Brain]
Another byproduct generated during the removal of physical functions. According to rumors, carnivorous extraterrestrials consume it to absorb genetic information. The brains of highly capable individuals are supposedly considered premium products.

[Hint: Guardian Spirit]
A product said to be generated at the time of death. Rumors claim that extraterrestrials consume guardian spirits in order to absorb spiritual functions and abilities. Guardian spirits associated with highly capable individuals are believed to be especially valuable.

[Hint: Social Status Given to a Replacement]
When a person dies, society would become unstable if no replacement existed. It is said that a replacement is prepared, but rumors suggest that such replacements may sometimes be products supplied by criminal organizations.

[Hint: The Person's Soul]
It is rumored that the individual must be a good person for the soul to be considered valuable merchandise. Souls belonging to people with specialized skills or high social status are said to be worth the most.

新世界の乞食（The Beggar of the New World）

僕の家に親がしばらく滞在することになったのだが、前々からある『食事を差し替える犯罪』と言うのが発生したのでした。僕が300g110円（税込）のパスタを茹でて味付けし終わった直後の時でした。お腹に水でも転送されたのかトイレに行ってパスタの元に戻ると味見した味とは全く違うダメ主婦の手抜きの様な全く不味いパスタに変貌していたでした。流石に僕もこれは怒りました。だって久々の会心の五つ星一流ホテル付きレストラン並みの出来栄えのパスタだったからです。

僕の親は東南アジアの人で国民の月の平均の稼ぎは5万円程度でありましたが、まさかそんな国の人の食事を盗むとは思いませんでした。そして親の霊は言いました。『日本にも乞食（物乞い）がいるのか！信じられない。こんな豊かな国なのに！！』僕は日本国民として恥ずかしいと思いました。だって僕の親の国は貧乏な人が多いからです。もしかして移民がやったことかもしれません。大和魂の大和撫子の日本国民がこんな事やったなんて僕の人生では聞いたことはありませんから。しかも良く聞くと貧乏な国であってもこの様な食べ物を盗む乞食は滅多におらず最低ランクの人間という事でした。

もしかして外国人の乞食の霊が幸せそうな人間に命令しているのかもしれませんが、僕は良識のある人間（肉体？）なんでそんなの従いません。

My parents recently came to stay at my home for a while, and something I call the “food replacement crime” happened again.

It occurred right after I had finished boiling and seasoning a 300-gram pack of pasta that cost only 110 yen including tax. Suddenly, I had to go to the bathroom, as if water had somehow been transferred into my stomach. When I returned to my pasta, it tasted completely different from when I had sampled it moments before. It had somehow transformed into a bland, awful dish that tasted like a careless shortcut meal made by an incompetent cook.

Naturally, I was furious. It had been one of my best dishes in a long time—something I would have rated as worthy of a five-star hotel restaurant.

My parents are from a Southeast Asian country where the average monthly income is around 50,000 yen. I never imagined that someone would steal food from people originating from such a modest-income country.

Then my parent's spirit said:

“There are beggars in Japan? I can't believe it. Japan is such a wealthy country!”

As a Japanese citizen, I felt embarrassed to hear that, because there are many poor people in my parents' country. From what I heard, even in poorer countries, people who steal food like this are extremely rare and are considered among the lowest kinds of individuals.

Perhaps the spirit of a foreign beggar is ordering happy people to do such things. However, I am a person with common sense (or at least a physical body with common sense), so I would never follow such orders.

他人でスイーツを貪る妖怪（The Sweet-Toothed Parasite）

僕の家族が皆んなヤられたのですが、他人の身体を乗っ取り洋菓子などのスイーツを貪り喰う妖怪が出現しました。一度や二度ではなくスイーツを買った所を見られるのを発見され、運悪くマーキングされるとカモにされてしまいます。特に自宅などをマーキングされ乗っ取られると被害者は思考が支離滅裂になり気狂いになりやすいです。

僕はコミニケーションを試みましたが奴ら妖怪に身体乗っ取りスイーツ喰い妖怪の特徴としては洋菓子を好んで食べる事と、販売されているスイーツを一度に大量に摂取する、手作りのお菓子を催促する、スイーツの食べ過ぎを批判した人間を気狂い扱いして病院に誘導することがあると言うことです。またスイーツを食べる時と会話時に舌を頻繁にペロりと出します。そして奴らは僕に言いました。『洋菓子の食べ放題なんて太らないし最高！！』僕は付き合いでアイスクリームを恵んでもらって口にしたのですが、この妖怪がいる時は必ず味がしませんでした。僕の味覚などの感覚のみを乗っ取っているのでしょう。人によっては体ごと乗っ取られるようでしたが僕は意識はマトモでした。

一部では『洋菓子の食べ放題なんて太らないし最高！！』と言う言葉に激怒している思念体がいて『他人の体乗っ取ってスイーツ食い放題の罪人を太らせたい！』と考えている人達もいる様でしたが、僕は初級のチャネラーなんで深く読むことは出来ませんでした。果たしてこの戦いはどうなるのでしょうか？

My entire family ended up being affected, but a strange yokai appeared—one that possesses other people's bodies and devours Western-style sweets and desserts.

This didn't happen just once or twice. If these creatures notice you buying sweets and you are unlucky enough to be marked by them, you can become their target. If they mark and take over a place such as your home, the victims often become mentally confused, their thoughts turn incoherent, and they may even appear insane.

I tried to communicate with them. From what I observed, the body-possessing, dessert-devouring yokai have several distinctive traits. They have a strong preference for Western-style pastries and sweets. They consume enormous quantities of commercially sold desserts in a single sitting. They often pressure people into making homemade sweets for them. They may even label anyone who criticizes excessive sugar consumption as mentally unstable and try to steer them toward hospitals.

Another peculiar characteristic is that they frequently stick out or lick their tongues while eating sweets and even during ordinary conversations.

One of them said to me:

"All-you-can-eat desserts are the best! They don't even make you gain weight!"

Out of social obligation, I accepted an ice cream that was offered to me. However, whenever one of these yokai was present, the ice cream had no taste at all. This made me wonder whether they were only possessing my senses, such as my sense of taste, rather than my entire body. Some people seemed to be completely possessed, but I remained conscious and mentally aware.

Among the spiritual entities I sensed, some appeared furious about the statement, "All-you-can-eat desserts are the best! They don't even make you gain weight!" 

They seemed to be thinking:

"We want those criminals who possess other people's bodies and feast on unlimited sweets to finally gain weight and face the consequences of their actions!"

However, I am only a beginner channeler and could not perceive their thoughts in any greater depth.

How will this strange battle ultimately end?
