The second set of weekly quests presents a slightly more complex challenge than the previous week's. Tasks include locating a hidden workshop, visiting Kento twice, and investigating a Portal. However, one challenge stands out for its simplicity: collect either a Fire Oni Mask or a Void Oni Mask.

Masks are readily available throughout the game, often found in various locations and obtained from eliminated opponents. Earning the 25k XP reward is generally straightforward. However, a crucial step follows acquiring the Mask.

Upon picking up a Mask, the next quest prompts you to "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it." While the phrasing might seem ambiguous, the solution is simple: either activate the Mask's power or remove it from your inventory.
