The idea becomes a big hit and he gets rich, master of a mansion with several servants and married with a model. They eventually have a daughter. The man, however, still feared the beggar's curse. He had found a servant willing to do anything for him and both made plastic surgery to change their faces. The man then took the appearance of the servant, while the servant had the man's appearance. Suddenly, the spirit of the beggar possesses the man's daughter and reveals that he has assisted the man's prosperity from behind the scenes so that he can fulfill his vow of taking the man's life at his happiest moment. The man rushes to interfere, but is knocked out by the spirit. The servant is then victim of the spirit, who is fooled by the man's plan of changing faces with the servant.

Rohan watches on with curiosity, deciding to interview him later if given the chance.
Servant
This servant was loyal to a rich man with great prosperity. he was willing to do anything for him, and used plastic surgery to alter both his and his master's appearances by his request.

The spirit attacks the servant thinking he's he master, but gives him the chance to be spared if he manages to throw a piece of popcorn in the air above the altitude of a nearby lamppost and catch it in his mouth, each time at the clap of his hands, three times in a row. If the man succeeds, the beggar will acknowledge that his death was due to destiny and will leave the man forever, but if the man fails, the beggar will cut off his head without fail. The servant manages to do it the first two times, but fails at the last one and has his head cut off without warning. The servant's spirit, also holding a grudge for his master, teams up with the beggar's spirit to watch the master to make sure that he does not do anything suspicious again.
Asian Man

While the man rests and drinks coffee, the beggar tries to move the large bag to the storage, but the bag proves to be too large and too heavy for him to carry and as a result he falls and is crushed by the bag. The man falls asleep and dreams that the beggar has appeared underneath his table, threatening to take revenge on him at his happiest moment. Not long after, authorities arrive and find that the beggar carrying the bag has died. He has since then assisted the man's prosperity from behind the scenes so that he could fulfill his vow of taking the man's life at his happiest moment. Years later the spirit of the beggar possesses the man's daughter. The beggar challenges the man to throw a piece of popcorn in the air above the altitude of a nearby lamppost and catch it in his mouth, each time at the clap of his hands, three times in a row. If the man succeeds, the beggar will acknowledge that his death was due to destiny and will leave the man forever, but if the man fails, the beggar will cut off his head without fail. The man fails and, without a second to spare, the beggar cuts off his head. He only learned later that he actually killed a servant who was willing to do anything for his master, and used plastic surgery to alter both his and the master's appearances, thereby fooling the beggar into dogging the servant instead. The spirits of the beggar and the beheaded servant then both vow to watch him around the clock to make sure that he does not do anything suspicious again.

Yoshikage Kira was assigned to kill him, but had a time limit to do so, because this man's crime expired at midnight. Kira invaded his house and confronted the dog Rocky while picking up a knife. Kira made a pigeon out of the newspaper with his picture to startle the man, who shouted out of his window "pigeons or police or whatever! Try to get me if you can!". Now that Kira had his permission, he entered his room and stabbed the man on his back. Kira left the man bleeding on the floor and called the woman living with him, telling her to call the police.
Monk
This woman could see Kira as a ghost, probably because she may have a high level of spiritual excellence some Monks are known for (attained through concentration and meditation).

That mansion was once the house of a old army officer 50 years ago, but, towards the end of the Pacific War, City S was under heavy air raid by American military. The officer's house was targeted and blown to pieces, but luckily nobody died there, the officer himself lived 50 years after the war, and died at the age of 82 from old age.
For some unknown reason, the house itself became a spirit and is still standing. 56 people committed suicide or died strange deaths in the house's area, so the monk sends Kira to find the reason for this and take care of it. In the mansion, Kira is attacked by Cleansers, who takes his arm and almost erases him from existence. Kira leaves the mansion to investigate the information the monk gave him, believing she sent him there to help Kira go to the netherworld by having him "cleansed". He then swears that, if any information she gave him about the mansion was not true, he would personally make her find out if the nether-realm exists. He then wonders if her arm would fit in place of his lost one.
