Pokémon's Lord of Fear

Tengshu's expression twisted slightly. He looked at Kayako, who was smiling gently, and coughed. He had just won her over yesterday, and now he saw her again. However, Kayako's current state was very strange. She had previously been surrounded by a strong resentment, but now that resentment was gone, replaced by a strange feeling. Tengshu couldn't quite put his finger on it, but if he had to describe it, Kayako now looked more like a human than a ghost. This left Tengshu somewhat bewildered. Looking into Kayako's eyes, Tengshu also sensed something subtle. He had seen such affectionate eyes before, when he was trying to win her over yesterday. So, Tengshu naturally recognized it. But Kayako's current state...
“Tengshu, I had a dream yesterday. In the dream, I lived a happy life. Saeki Takeo confessed to me, told me he liked Natsume Soseki's books, and even proposed to me in a prank. I happily spent time with him, and we grew old together, eventually dying happily. Such a beautiful dream is truly magical. However, I still have some doubts about this dream because it was too real. It was so real that all the resentment in my body disappeared. Toshio even grew up to be an outstanding adult. Do you know what's going on?” Kayako looked at Tengshu gently. Tengshu's lips twitched. How would he know why? But at this moment, Tengshu could only feel despair. After all, Kayako's situation was really difficult to understand. She had actually inherited his memories. How could this be?

"Ahem, isn't this a good thing?" Teng Shu said with a chuckle. Kayako also smiled. She felt like she was about to become a Buddha, or rather, she was about to be reincarnated. After all, all her resentment was gone. Kayako stretched, all the unpleasantness from before was covered up. Kayako felt incredibly happy at this moment. However, Kayako also knew that Saeki Takeo could not possibly become that kind of person. After all, Kayako knew this man's personality too well. He was a lunatic, a madman. Although he was good to her, it was mostly out of possessiveness. And once he became suspicious, he would vent his anger wildly. This had happened several times, which was why Kayako felt desperate.

However, she never expected that Tengshu would change everything. Now, Kayako has her own perfect life, which makes her very happy. So Kayako is very happy. Her resentment is gone. Her past experiences are like a dream. Tengshu looked at Kayako and smiled. He now knows why he gave her 100 million fear points. Kayako, the evil spirit, was cured and became a different person. That's why he got 100 million fear points. After all, Kayako's influence is there. When commenting on the world's top ten horror movies, Ju-on is an almost unavoidable topic. So Tengshu naturally knows about these situations and is quite familiar with them. Therefore, for Tengshu, Kayako's situation is actually understandable. After all, Kayako's situation is quite common, and the opponent's power is there.

Kayako has almost become a classic character in horror movies. It can be said that whenever Japanese horror movies are mentioned, there will definitely be a scene of Kayako crawling down the stairs. Kayako's terrifying and twisted crawling has become a classic in film and television, so many people still know about her. Now, Kayako has been cured because of Tengshu, along with Toshio. So Tengshu feels that it is not surprising that he has gained 100 million fear points. Tengshu's mood has become cheerful. However, at this moment, Kayako came to Tengshu's side, stood in front of him, looked at him, and then smiled and pointed her finger at Tengshu's forehead. Then Kayako turned into light and disappeared. Even Toshio turned into light and disappeared. It seems very absurd, but there seems to be some reason why it is possible.

"Kayako, may you rest in peace. Your future should be filled with happiness." Teng Shu's eyes held a hint of a smile. In truth, Teng Shu knew this, after all, he had changed Kayako's life, and also the lives of Saeki Toshio and Saeki Takeo. According to the system, Saeki Takeo's soul had witnessed the entire process, meaning that Saeki Takeo knew that this was the path he should have taken, instead of becoming like the character in Ju-on. However, there were some reasons for this. For example, there were some problems with the house in Ju-on. According to Teng Shu's observation, he discovered that the house contained some kind of curse that amplified people's negative emotions, which was why Saeki Takeo was so furious. But ultimately, it was also because Saeki Takeo simply lacked patience. Thinking of this, Teng Shu felt much more at ease.

"Now that Kayako's gone, it's time for the lottery. And this way, I can upgrade my personal ghost. Tomie is having a great time at the amusement park, and Freddy is still busy being his dream god in Elm Street, so we don't need to worry about those two. But what about Naoko? How is Kayako's sister doing under these circumstances?" Tengshu was a little curious about this. He had seen Naoko in the guide. She was a busy Onmyoji, but later she got married, and the couple were busy exorcising demons every day, earning a lot of money. Tengshu and Kayako even received a luxury apartment in Tokyo as a gift from them. However, Tengshu preferred his own home, so he only went there occasionally. Later, Toshio grew up and moved into that house. Only his daughter, Xiao Mian'ao, would come back to visit them often.

However, it must be said that this world is truly interesting. Take Saeki Toshio, for example. Under Fujiki's tutelage, he grew into a great writer, whose novel won the highest award for new writers in Japan at the time, making him an instant celebrity. Because of this, he was very busy, but he would still take the time to visit Fujiki and Kayako. Kayako was very happy, and Fujiki played the role of a good father, neither spoiling the mood nor causing trouble, but encouraging Toshio with a smile. He even saw Saeki Toshio marry someone else and have children. In the game, Fujiki became a grandfather for once, but this feeling was quite subtle. Fujiki personally liked it, as it felt like playing a simulated life game, which was very exciting. Fujiki was very happy about this, and Kayako was also very happy.

As for Mai Saeki, this child was highly anticipated by Fujiki, or rather, he had some mischievous intentions towards her. After all, Fujiki's training requirements for her were to become a certain Mai-senpai, but not under too much pressure. He simply let Mai do what she liked, and in fact, Mai did very well, performing exceptionally well, which relieved Fujiki. Fujiki also watched her become a successful star and find a perfect boyfriend who treated Mai very well, which made Fujiki very at ease. However, on Mai's wedding day, Fujiki still quietly pulled him aside and showed him a token given to him by a good brother he met in the yakuza organization, telling him to treat Mai better, otherwise he wouldn't mind having another cement barrel in Tokyo Bay. This scared the other man so much that his face turned pale, and Fujiki didn't say anything more.

In his middle age, Fujiki, having nothing better to do, gathered a group of older men and started a mutual aid society. They didn't get together for anything else, just to do things like discuss life, and help each other out when someone was in trouble. It was quite a pleasant experience. As everyone knows, when there are more than three people, a "brainstorming king" automatically emerges. So, what Kayako didn't know was that Fujiki had secretly enjoyed being the big brother, even starting a company and making a name for himself. If Toshio hadn't wanted to be a literary giant, the position could have been given to him. But Toshio did become a literary giant, so Fujiki ultimately gave the position to a young man who was close to Toshio, highly capable, and possessed knowledge of imperial psychology. This young man was extremely disgusted with a certain old, outdated tradition, so it's hard to say whether a constitutional monarchy would ever exist.

Teng Shu was aware of this, but he couldn't be bothered to care. After all, these issues weren't problems for him; he had his own things to do. Thinking about this, Teng Shu's expression became much more serious. He was currently planning to continue writing the script for his future film, and this time, he intended to start with the "brain in a vat" theme. Teng Shu knew very well that it was very difficult for a conventional horror film to achieve a truly terrifying effect, unless he created a vengeful ghost and had it scare people all day long. That might change things, but it was unlikely. So, Teng Shu decided to take the more subtle, unsettling approach. The film he was preparing to shoot this time would be in this style, and it would also be his retirement project. After finishing this, Teng Shu didn't plan to continue filming. He would then propose to Jingxiang and they would live together.

After all, Tengshu is already of age, and he's quite satisfied with the years he's spent in this world. He's changed a lot, captured Giovanni, and then wiped out Team Magma and Team Aqua. Groudon even sleeps on his waist, so Tengshu is very at ease. Moreover, this kind of life is quite good. Tengshu has already discussed it with his father, and when he gets married, his father will give him three years of honeymoon time, allowing him to travel the world freely. During these three years, his father and his older brother Daigo will help manage Devon Corporation. Tengshu is very happy about this, because without honeymoon time, it would be very troublesome, but having honeymoon time is quite good, at least acceptable.

"Then let's leave it at that. We can start pre-production now. Once filming is finished, everything else will be easier." Teng Shu cracked his neck. He already had some ideas, and they were quite unique. Thinking about this, Teng Shu had some unique thoughts. He called Zoroark over and asked him to start arranging the film's pre-production. This time, Teng Shu would be the director, but he would also be the male lead. Yes, Teng Shu planned to star in the film himself. After all, this was his final work, and it wouldn't hurt to be a little capricious. Besides, for someone as unique as Teng Shu, he didn't care about other things. Moreover, as an excellent director, Teng Shu was also an excellent actor, so he was very confident in his acting skills.

"Boss, this time... is it our retirement project?" Zoroark understood Tengshu's meaning. Tengshu nodded, and Zoroark felt a pang of nostalgia. Looking at Tengshu, she seemed to see herself again, the one who had followed him. Back then, she had just started this job and had some strange memories. She hadn't expected that such a thing had happened. Fortunately, Shizuka's matter was over. Thinking of this, Zoroark felt much more relaxed. She quickly went down to arrange the matter. This problem needed to be dealt with as soon as possible. Once it was mostly resolved, she could move on to other things. Even if there were some minor issues, they probably wouldn't be too noticeable or troublesome. With this in mind, Zoroark felt motivated.

Meanwhile, Teng Shu was looking at his script. This time, the script was actually very simple, but it was terrifying upon closer inspection. After all, Teng Shu had presented a simple concept to induce the audience to think. However, it was just a simple logic problem, which could be solved simply by using the principle of "I think, therefore I am." After all, such problems were not particularly unique. Thinking about this, Teng Shu had some ideas. He twisted his neck and stood up. Since that was the case, Teng Shu should start preparing for the filming of this movie. He would deal with other things at other times after filming was completed. Teng Shu didn't have much time to deal with these trivial matters now, so he was quite at ease. He planned to start filming as soon as possible and then see what the audience thought.

However, before starting filming, Teng Shu planned to draw a prize first, using up all 100 million of his fear points. He'd deal with everything else after that, and also see what he could win. (End of Chapter)
