Biography[]
During Chapter 5, when Wataru began to lose track on Byakuya Kyoko during his investigations at Bishakeura Teahouse after she jumped off to the nearby sea in order to get rid of the eldritch insect creatures of Bishakeura, Wataru attempts to sleep in order to track her whereabouts. To his surprise however, he ended up meeting with Beniko Yamaoka instead, a woman that he met 5 years ago during his day at work prior to the main story. It was then revealed that Beniko is a crazy stalker relentlessly harassing Wataru for a year before the latter decides to call the police and issued a restraining order on her which causes Beniko to disappear entirely. However, her determination of stalking Wataru has not vanished as she decided to sent him several letters around a month ago while telling him to stop pursuing Byakuya Kyoko because she is out of Wataru's league and Beniko is the only one who could make him happy.
Seeing that Beniko still relentlessly stalking him to the point she managed to watch his every move, Wataru decided to contact the police again to no avail. Attempting to track Beniko's wherabouts in order to apprehend her, Wataru almost got into a near-accident after an unnamed car driver crashed his car into the curved mirror's pole while claiming it was an accident because he couldn't differentiate between brakes and accelerator before running away and crashing another curved mirror's pole again. It was then revealed that Beniko uses one of the curved mirrors as a medium to make an appearance while Wataru doesn't noticed her existence in the real world. This causes Wataru to become scared after she got too close to the mirror which causes him to throw a brick at said mirror and run away from it as she told him how useless his efforts are.
Returning to his apartment after the incident, Wataru then noticed the news on his television regarding several hit and run accidents happened across the country which bent the curved mirror’s pole so that the mirrors could reflect with each other. This in turn, also caused a mass hysteria across Japan after one of the people seeing someone has been stalking them in the curved mirror. After seeing what happened, Wataru decided to bent one of the curved mirror that he damaged in order to make them reflecting with other curved mirrors. This resulted in the jet-black hair strands began to appeared in the mirror. Taking one of the strands, Wataru decided to contact Dr. Kurodera in order to analyze the black hair that he had found.
However, when attempting to analyze one of the strands, Beniko and the rest of the members of the Indigo Shadow cult which also includes the driver Wataru had met from before began to kidnap both Wataru and Dr. Kurodera to an unknown building. Knowing this, Wataru then asks Beniko's motivation for relentlessly stalking him in which she tells him that she worked with the leader of Indigo Shadow, Aido Kagerou, to fine-tune the curved mirrors across Japan in order to not only spread their marks across the country, but also throughout the world and the universe in order to refine the cult members' power of clairvoyance bestowed by the Lord Amagami while also telling Wataru that she wants to use its power so that Wataru could be herself forever in order to be bestowed of great amount of energy.
It was then revealed that Aido, Beniko and the rest of the cult members had kidnapped several innocent people that had encountered Byakuya Kyoko as Aido ordered his cult members to perform an excruciating ritual towards said people while waiting for Mount Sengoku to erupt in order to track Byakuya Kyoko's whereabouts. Beniko then happily decided to mate with Wataru in order to perform the ritual so that she could become one with him and making him forgetting Byakuya in the end.
In the end however, as the ritual is finished which resulted in the cultists becoming much more insane and the innocent people that they project themselves into had their bodies become shriveled into becoming nothing but skeletons after being covered by the jet-black hair that erupted from the Sengoku Mountain. It was then revealed that Wataru managed to escape from Beniko’s grasp and was transported to another universe where Byakuya Kyoko is located much to Beniko’s dismay. After Wataru returned from the Edo Period of another universe which resulted in Aido seemingly banished forever thanks to Byakuya Kyoko and the missionary named Miguel, Beniko then becomes insane alongside the members of Indigo Shadow after covering herself with jet-black hair because she and the rest of Aido’s cult members already saw all the way to the limits of the universe where Lord Amagami resides.
