Tokyo Sword Saint Online Dealing

Unexpectedly, the person in the mirror answered very decisively.

"I?"

Do you want me to recite your resume for you?

"My name is Li Qing, I'm from China. I lost both my parents at a young age and was raised by distant relatives. I started working part-time while studying in high school, and eventually got into XX University. After graduation, I participated in the campus recruitment of XX company and smoothly entered a top-tier domestic enterprise."

Do I need to tell you what happened next?

The person in the mirror blinked, speaking in a relaxed tone, yet with a hint of teasing.

This was about Uesugi Kiyoshi's experiences before he traveled through time, something he knew all too well.

The muscles in his cheeks twitched slightly, indicating that Uesugi Kiyoshi's mood was not very calm.

However, he did not lose his temper, but patiently continued to ask questions.

"Okay, then, who am I?"

The person in the mirror paused for a moment, then suddenly threw their head back and burst into laughter.

"You're really something else. You ask me who you are?"

"Don't you know who you are?"

"Up! Shan! Qing!"

The last sentence, spoken slowly and deliberately by the person in the mirror, seemed to be a reminder to Uesugi Kiyoshi.

Uesugi Kiyoshi initially dismissed this seemingly pointless remark, but when he met the meaningful gaze of the person in the mirror, his thoughts froze for a moment, and a bizarre possibility surfaced in his mind.

"He is Li Qing. I am Uesugi Qing."

"What do you mean by that?!"

"Could it be."

A name exists as a person's identifier; a name corresponds to a person—a unique person.

Li Qing corresponds to that young man who came from a poor background in his previous life but worked hard and persevered.

So who does Uesugi Kiyoshi correspond to?

The answer is ready to come out.

The original owner of this body was a Japanese high school student from Hokkaido who also came from a poor family, lost both parents, and came to Tokyo alone to study.

Uesugi Kiyoshi's memories always told him that he came from the Celestial Empire, traveled here, possessed a body, and was reborn.

He never thought about it, or rather, he didn't want to think about it.

Is possession really such a simple thing?

For a deity to be reborn through possession, it must go through a sacrificial ritual and have a very high degree of compatibility with the body it possesses.

So, how was he able to be reborn when he was a wandering soul who had traveled through time?

Was it just pure luck?

Seeing that Uesugi Kiyoshi's brows were filled with confusion and bewilderment, he half-squatted down, panting heavily, covering his head with his hands, and his eyes gradually becoming bloodshot.

The person in the mirror smiled silently, but there was no smugness of a successful scheme, nor any frivolity or mockery in the smile.

It was just filled with inexplicable feelings.

Even though Uesugi Kiyoshi prided himself on being shrewd, resilient, and unmoved by external things, he was still somewhat uneasy.

He felt as if his life had been completely negated.

In his memory, "Uesugi Kiyoshi's" life was just a series of memories suddenly instilled in him, like a movie he had watched that left a deep impression. He might have some empathy, some sighs, and some of his own thoughts, but it had nothing to do with him.

He always believed that he was "Li Qing", and that the events that happened in his previous life did not seem fake at all.

After an unknown period of silence, Uesugi Kiyoshi suddenly looked up, revealing bloodshot eyes.

He gritted his teeth, his voice carrying a chilling edge, and said in a low voice, "I almost got stuck on something because of what you said—you really know how to hit my sore spot, you know what I care about most."

"However, I'm not that easily swayed. Just because you say something doesn't mean it."

"Stop talking nonsense! I am Uesugi Kiyoshi, and also Li Qing. I remember every day and night of the spring, summer, autumn and winter I have lived through!"

"Don't even think about disturbing my peace of mind!"

Upon hearing this, the person in the mirror chuckled.

"Why are you reacting so strongly? Did I ever say that Uesugi Kiyoshi is not Li Qing?"

"I'm just saying that you are Uesugi Kiyoshi."

"The rest is all your imagination, right? Whatever you imagine represents the situation you are most worried about in your subconscious. Instead of yelling at me, it's better to get rid of your inner demons."

Uesugi Kiyoshi was slightly taken aback, anger rising within him, but at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.

Regardless, the idea of ​​"I am not myself" is still too terrifying and frightening.

"Are you kidding me?!"

He was furious, but unfortunately he didn't have a suitable weapon at hand. Otherwise, he would have used his sword to teach the person in the mirror a lesson.

The person in the mirror shook their head helplessly.

"I'm just reminding you that your name is now Uesugi Kiyoshi."

"You must bury the name Li Qing deep in your heart and never mention it. Never tell anyone that you come from another world."

"Otherwise, something terrible will happen."

Seeing the serious expression on his face in the mirror, Uesugi Kiyoshi temporarily calmed his anger and asked suspiciously, "Why?"

The person in the mirror shrugged.

That concludes my answer.

"As for the rest, why don't you ask the person behind you?"

Upon hearing this, Uesugi Kiyoshi turned around abruptly and stood frozen in place.

Chapter 251 Past and Present Life

He wore a white armored battle robe that fluttered without wind, three swords of different lengths hung at his waist, his shoulder-length hair was tied up with a ribbon, and there seemed to be sword light flowing between his eyebrows and eyes. His whole person exuded an unusually sharp aura.

Like a drawn sword, its sharpness cannot be concealed.

Behind Uesugi Kiyoshi, there was also a mirror of the same kind.

In the mirror, there is such a figure.

He was also very familiar with this figure.

Fully armed, this is what he looks like in battle. Or rather, in the Mirage Tower, on the Stairway to Godhood, the statue of the Lord of a Hundred Ghosts is exactly the same as the figure in the mirror.

Two mirrors, like a cycle of reincarnation, one in front and one behind, sandwiched Uesugi Kiyoshi between them.

His breathing almost stopped; he just stared wide-eyed at the reflection in the mirror behind him.

The figure also stared at him without uttering a word.

After a long while, Uesugi Kiyoshi closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.

"I see."

He uttered four words.

The person in the mirror opposite him remained expressionless, coldly saying, "You don't seem surprised?"

Uesugi nodded, his expression complex.

"As expected, I had guessed about your existence before."

"There aren't that many coincidences in this world; some things are just deliberate."

"I think so."

"I don't think I'm that lucky to have the [Hundred Ghosts Scroll], a special item for the Ghost King, as a cheat code after transmigrating. Before I knew what this thing meant, I could ignore it. But the clearer my understanding of the extraordinary is, the more I realize how powerful this Hundred Ghosts Scroll I have is."

"Not to mention, ever since I awakened the Hundred Demon Scroll, people with demon souls have been gathering around me as if by some unseen force."

"In the end, I was even able to use the power of the Lord of a Hundred Demons, who was a god, at will, without any rejection reaction."

"This is outrageous."

"Later, I thought, if the Lord of Arakawa can be reincarnated, why can't the Lord of a Hundred Demons be reincarnated?"

"Don't blame me for having such absurd ideas. Onikiri, Oni Hand, Oni Heibu, and the power of the Oni Gods are all as easy for me to use as my own arms. They are as if they were tailor-made for me."

"I have to start to have doubts."

"Either I am the chosen one in some novel, or I am inextricably linked to the former Lord of a Hundred Demons."

“I’ve considered many conspiracy theories, such as you are cultivating a body to possess, or you are using me to develop followers in an attempt to be reborn.”

"I've also wondered... could I be your reincarnation?"

"But the only thing that puzzles me is that I remember my past life. I was a time traveler. I don't belong to this world. You should have nothing to do with me."

"But ever since I saw that diary, I've noticed even more strange things."

"The tone of your writing is definitely not that of an ancient Japanese person. You can even say things like 'starting with one person and one dog.' It really puzzles me."

"And there's also Onmyoji Arena."

"The scroll of the Lord of a Hundred Demons, why is it just like the game I played in my previous life, with skill cards set up, as if they're afraid I won't understand how to play it?"

"This is practically a textbook that taught me how to step into the extraordinary."

"What, people from the Heian period actually made a beginner's guide for me?"

"They clearly came prepared, didn't they?"

As he spoke, Uesugi Kiyoshi turned his head slightly, then turned back around.

There are three versions of myself in this space.

All are past and present lives.

"Now, whatever the possibility, I've accepted it."
