She refuses to give up her unusual vocation as she wants to follow in the footsteps of her famous magician father who died when she was a child. But her life changes after being fired again for lack of stage presence, when her boss shows her an advertisement of a challenge made by physics professor Ueda, A non-believer of all things "magical," miraculous, or mystical, he offers prize money to anyone who can prove to him that their supernatural powers are real and not trickery.
