Akira cannot help feeling scared but she follows Tenma who is moving ahead with confidence. However, the moment they encounter an eerie woman, he faints on the spot! In fact, Tenma is the greatest coward. He also has the ability to see his late father Tendo who is in heaven when he loses consciousness. Having listened to the ghost busting hints from Tendo, Tenma finally confronts the ghost of the fallen warrior after he comes to, but … …
