A comic book, but a librarian

"It also needs..."
The light came on again, and the bloodstains were constantly being removed. However, it was this scene that made Mary roar in anger. Countless roses accompanied by poisonous snakes began to spread in the hall. For a moment, everyone could not tell whether this was an illusion or reality.
"The second stage of the curse..."
Baoyue Yexiao gritted his teeth and rushed over to pick up the dagger that Uesugi Cheng threw on the ground, and cut off the spreading vines. Yashiki Kazuo was thinking about what else could be used on the second floor.
“Fuck, die, die, die!!!”
The curse was spreading unscrupulously, and the power of various evil spirits that Yashiki Kazuo had once dealt with reappeared in Meili, as if it was the existence that gave those evil spirits power.

Chapter 140: The Immortal of the Lamp, awakens.
In fact, Yashiki Kazuo had never imagined how rich the Kujo family was, but after this night, he finally had a certain understanding of the property owned by the Kujo family, especially the wealth related to supernatural powers and spiritual powers. At least he could not have imagined that he could easily find a spiritual tool in Kujo Saya's room.
It was a talisman, obtained from some shrine, but no one knew it. Yashiki Kazuo held his breath, returned to the stairs, and threw the talisman at Merry who was shrouded in black fog. He didn't expect the talisman to have any effect on Merry, as long as it could attract her attention for a moment.
Things turned out just as he wished. Mary wrapped her doll body in black mist, but the amulet made a burning sound when it hit the black mist, which successfully distracted Mary's attention.
"Give me!!"
Bao Yue Ye Xiao split the thorns. She could feel that Mei Li was not in her strongest state yet. If she didn't take her down now, then perhaps she would have to let the graduates take the stage next. Moreover, although Jiujo Hall was located in a remote area, it was still near residential areas. She really couldn't imagine how strong Mei Li would become if such a mark spread on a large scale on humans and evil spirits.
"cough……"
However, something that no one expected still happened. Uesugi Cheng looked at the rose vines that pierced his body, and then looked at the Buddha statue in his hand that was almost purified. The pain and a sense of emptiness surged into his heart.
"Uesugi!!!"
Yashiki Kazuo watched the Buddha statue fall from Uesugi Sumiko's hand. Uesugi Sumiko's wound was pierced and torn by the rose vines, almost torn into a hole, and blood kept gushing out. The death marks on his body became more and more obvious, and the blood flowing from the corners of his mouth and his gradually dimming eyes seemed to indicate that this man had reached the end of his road.
"Go on! Use it..."
Uesugi Sumiko gently threw out the Chan Buddhism chant. Surprisingly, when death came, he did not feel anything. He was as calm as if he was facing breakfast every morning.
Baoyue Yexiao had no time to be sad. She caught the Buddha's hand. The vines and snakes around her were obviously afraid of the Buddha's power and were gradually retreating. However, the breath of Uesugi Cheng behind her was gradually becoming weaker, reminding her of one thing: her companion was dying.
"What's wrong? Don't you want to continue? Maybe if you hurry up, he can still be saved."
Meili's hoarse laughter suddenly became sweet again, trying to stir up Baoyue's mood for supper and let her come over with the Buddha's name.
"I will make you miserable...I mean what I say."
Baoyue Yexiao's tone became extremely cold. She held the Buddha statue in her arms, and in her other hand she held Uesugi Cheng's dagger, pointing it at Meili. The temperature in the entire Kujo Hall dropped again.
-
"Oh, Miss Elegy, I am about to leave. Before that, I hope to get something from you that can be considered a blessing."
"I see. Thank you, thank you the elegy poets, and thank you the great Hours. I can finally... start my journey with a new attitude."
Uesugi Cheng's blurred vision suddenly became clear again. Under the gloomy sky, he seemed to be lying next to a cemetery, and his body looked like that of a middle-aged man.
A woman with black skin, white hair and snow-like eyes stood in front of her. She didn't say a word and looked like she was talking to herself, but Uesugi Cheng "remembered" what happened.
He asked for a "blessing" from Wange'er, so that before the time agreed upon by the blessing came, his mortal body would not age or die. This was for...
"Yes, I will set off for Silent Bookstore... for the 'third option' of this identity, but also for the 'answer' that belongs to me."
His perspective suddenly stretched very far away, and he finally saw clearly that the body lying on the bench looked like the middle-aged body of Uesugi Sumika, and inside it was the young him, pure white, and shining.
[The Second Born]: I was born again, and now I am the librarian of the Silent House. This is a diary that records my remaining memories.
He finally understood the true meaning of the "Amber Diary" in his hand. Uesugi Sumiko was actually an immortal of the lamp who was reborn in the waking world for the second time, just to go to the Silent Bookstore to find an answer.
"The Immortal forged the identity of another Immortal just to become the manager of Silent Bookstore... What on earth was I thinking?"
Uesugi Cheng's heart was full of doubts. He didn't understand why he had to pretend to be an immortal who had to find a "third option". He could have gone to Silent Bookstore with his original identity.
But his memory obviously had no intention of answering these questions, and time continued to move forward.
"Mr. Archon!! Mr. Archon!! It's bad!! Mr. Hercules!! He! He broke his sword, and then..."
Uesugi Sumire, or rather a black-haired young man with a tongue-twisting Japanese name and several scars on his face, was reviewing official documents when his panicked subordinates rushed in and he couldn't even finish his sentences.
"The day has come. You will have to walk the rest of the way on your own."
Uesugi Sumiko's body aged rapidly in the Mukden Country, and finally decayed and turned into bones, frightening the officials and servants to faint. However, as the Immortal of the Lamp, he just watched the scene silently, as he had completed the contract with the 'Colonel'.
Next came Canyang and Xindan. As an immortal of the lamp, Uesugi Cheng was surprised to find that his social circle seemed to be much wider than he had imagined, because he originally... served in the Daytime Forge.
As time went on, Uesugi Cheng even saw his past life, when he was still called 'Li Cheng'. It was not pleasant to have those old memories brought up...
"Am I such a person?"
Uesugi Cheng did not feel any reality in his heart, as if what he had just seen was not himself, but he was surprised to find that along with the emergence of memories, his soul essence was constantly surging, and the power as an immortal was emerging.
-
Bao Yue Ye Xiao had no idea what was going on. She didn't know why the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse. Mei Li began to attack her anxiously. The situation in Kujo Hall also became very wrong. The temperature was so low that ice was forming all around. There were even traces of frost on the glass. The moonlight became colder and colder, and then windows of glass began to shatter. Something behind her gradually woke up.
141
Chapter 141: The Sealed Merry and the End of the Death Mark.
Baoyue Yexiao seldom felt such a sense of oppression. The chill coming from behind seemed to gradually become deadly. The thing that was comparable to the Graduate, or even more terrifying than the Graduate, was awakening on a corpse. This was far more deadly than Mary if it was not such a friendly existence.
Uesugi Cheng had never had such a wonderful feeling. He seemed to have looked up at the sky like this countless times, no matter it was dawn, dusk or the long midnight. As a 'person' in spiritual state, it was really too wonderful.
This world is greeting him, as if to express welcome. He is explaining to Uesugi Cheng the rules that belong to him. Uesugi Cheng, the spirit from the waking world, is gradually adapting to this world, and then...
The pale light dissipated, no longer warm or gentle, and it was like a sharp blade that pierced through the black fog, strangling all the roses and poisonous snakes together.
"We call upon the Colonel, the blind god, the scarred god, the god who will not be disobeyed."
Baoyue Yexiao's heart suddenly sank. She clearly felt that the entire Jiujo Hall was shrouded in a curse that only evil spirits could cast so casually. Unlike Meili in front of her, the evil spirit behind her that made her feel cold had a domain-shaped curse. She began to regret why she didn't bring the graduates here. If she had brought the graduates, she might have been able to fight, but now she was caught between these two evil spirits.
"No!!! You monster!!! How could you!! This shouldn't happen!! How could they create a monster like you!!"
Meili's loss of composure made Baoyue Yexiao a little confused. She had never seen an evil spirit show this attitude. Even when facing an evil spirit that was about to devour them, most spirits would not curse like this madly.
Inside the Kujo Hall, the sharp light was directed by Uesugi Sumiko like an arm. When he bowed to the colonel, he was not really bowing to the colonel. He just raised his mouth habitually when borrowing the technique. Then, a saber cut through all obstacles and Meli's defenses. A light gun nailed the puppet to the wall. The black mist that escaped seemed to be burned. Meli, or the evil spirit hidden in the body of Meli's puppet, let out an unimaginable scream.
"..."
Bao Yue Ye Xiao silently watched the arrogant Mei Li being nailed to the wall without any ability to resist. She did not relax at all. A person instantly turned into an evil spirit after death, and it was such a terrifying and powerful evil spirit. She had never heard of such a thing. Even an evil spirit with extremely deep resentment could not become stronger at such a speed, otherwise humans would just hold hands and wait to die.
"The time has not come yet. The time I chose for you...for the funeral is just like what I have done countless times."
The seer, the burialist, the archon.
The man named Uesugi Cheng vaguely remembered these titles. He once provided strategies for the Daytime Forge, solved the "troublesome funeral" for Xindan and Canyang, and provided ruling assistance for the Colonel's Shadowless Empire. Now, he is about to prepare a funeral for the dead he awakened, just like countless times before.
"Ha... a monster. A real... monster."
Mary seemed to have given up struggling. The monster opposite her, who was wearing a long white robe and whose face could not be seen clearly under the glare, could not understand why a soul would be born for the purpose of "ending". All souls exist to survive, just like people's desire to survive. However, the guy opposite her was born for the purpose of "ending". He should not exist as a soul in this world.
Meili's spiritual power around her was being slowly but unstoppably cleared away. The cold and sharp light seemed to permeate the entire Jiujo Hall, and time was flowing slowly.
"Uesugi... is that you? Are you okay?"
"To be honest, my health is probably not very good. Although I won't die now, I don't know what will happen after the sun rises. I still like that body very much. Please help me call an ambulance."
Yashiki Kazuo felt a sense of contrast that he didn't know how to describe. The powerful white spirit in front of him actually asked him to call an ambulance, but his mentality was very good and he was ready to do it obediently.
"Brother Uesugi...are you dead?"
"I was going to die, but now it seems that I don't need to die. Come to think of it, you seemed to have said that you wanted to catch evil spirits. How about that?"
Uesugi Sumiko's tone was extremely calm. Even though it was just the beginning of autumn and the night was still sultry, it was so cold inside Kujo-kan that it was unbearable.
"I understand. I will use the Buddha's will to seal it... and then have a good talk with him. After all, I keep my word."
Baoyue Yexiao nodded seriously. She said she would make Meili miserable, and she would definitely do what she said.
Under the effect of the Buddha's will, Meili was quickly stuffed back into her doll body. However, the doll was a bit big, and because of Meili's spiritual power, the doll's body appeared to be distorted in a very unnatural way. Yashiki Kazuo and Baoyue Yexiao decided to repair Meili's body and then hand it over to Baoyue Yexiao for processing. While waiting for the ambulance to arrive, Yashiki Kazuo followed the fragments of memory and found the tape recorder he had hidden in the big clock.
"Saya...I wish I had remembered it sooner."
"Don't think like that, it's fine now."
"Eh?"
Yashiki Kazuo...or rather, Kujo Masamune suddenly raised his head and saw a small puppet dancing in front of him.
"This must be the spirit of your relative. I helped her possess this puppet. If nothing serious goes wrong, she can stay in this form for a long time."
Uesugi Sumire still had no expression on his face. Kujo Masamune suddenly felt that Uesugi Sumire was different from Kujo Saya after becoming a spirit. His emotions seemed to be suppressed.
"Then what are you going to do, Brother Uesugi? Can you still go back?"
There seemed to be a gleam in Baoyue Yexiao's eyes, and Kujo Masamune always felt that she seemed to want to put Uesugi Cheng into the doll.
"The body is not completely dead. Although it will be very weak after returning, it's no problem."
A smile appeared on Uesugi Cheng's lips. The sea water of Brancug was really mysterious. It could almost completely wash away the memory of an Immortal of the Lamp. Except for some instincts and common sense, he had forgotten everything else, even the memories of the Immortal period.
"In that case, let us go to the hospital with you."
Just like that, when the first light of dawn arrived, Uesugi Sumiya was carried into the ambulance, and Merry was sealed back into the box. The fifty-year-long death seal curse finally came to an end here.
142
Chapter 1: What is it like to be a ghost? ()
"How should I put it? The patient's body functions... Honestly, Mr. Kujo, don't you really need us to dispose of the body for you?"
Of course, Kujo Masamune was not stupid enough to send Uesugi Sumire to an ordinary hospital. It would be easy to send him there, but it would be too troublesome to deal with the subsequent problems.
So he was very straightforward. As the wealthy local family, the Kujo family must have some connections. Even if Kujo Saya had not been very diligent in maintaining them in recent years, the favors from the past should not be wasted. So they came to the hospital related to the Kujo family.
"Ahem, Mr. Doctor, anyway, saying this in front of me... isn't it a bit too rude?"
Uesugi Cheng coughed twice and continued to lie down under the doctor's numb eyes. To be honest, the doctors here initially thought that it was some gangsters who wanted to make them do such a nasty job as disposing of dead bodies.
After all, according to common sense, the young man in front of him should have died from excessive blood loss long ago, but now he can not only sit in front of him, but he is even conscious and able to speak. The doctor feels that all his years of medical experience seem to have been flushed down the toilet.
"No, I think this is a miracle, or a supernatural power. Speaking of which, you will erase my memory, otherwise I think I will apply for early retirement in a few days if I see such cases every day."
The doctor just waved his hand numbly, filled out the form and went out.
The moment the doctor left, Uesugi Sumira's body simply lay on the bed and closed his eyes. After a few seconds, the white spirit Uesugi Sumira sat on the edge of the bed, looking a little helpless.
"My body still needs some time to repair itself, and... generally speaking, during this period of time, I can't control my surroundings very well."
Baoyue Yexiao nodded. She had already felt that in the short period of time when Uesugi Cheng's spirit appeared, the refraction of light around her seemed to have become disordered, and the temperature in the room was already lower than the temperature displayed by the air conditioner.
Of course, Uesugi Cheng did not tell them that he still had no way to fully master the power of the immortals. In fact, this power was too huge and too profound for him now. Even when he was dealing with Mary, he only used the conventional ritual to transform his soul power into spiritual power with the nature of colonel power, and directly overwhelmed Mary with the nature and quantity of the spiritual power.
Therefore, he is now faced with a very embarrassing problem. His weak body is simply unable to contain his huge soul. Or he can barely control his body like controlling a puppet. However, the actual effect is so embarrassing that anyone who knows him can basically find out that something is wrong.
However, the solution to this embarrassing situation is very simple, which is to continue to study the great art, and rely on the knowledge of the great art and the soul essence brought by the Night Watchman Tree to re-enhance his ability to control the soul.
"Then take a rest first. I have already informed the doctors here, and they will not disturb you. The Kujo family was saved because of you, so I will be there for you whenever you need me in the future."
Kujo Masamune stretched out his hand. Now that Saya could only use the doll to move, he had to take on the role of the head of the Kujo family again and slowly deal with the huge assets and connections left behind by his family. On his shoulder, a cute brown bear doll was lying, waving at Uesugi Sumika. Kujo Saya had originally planned to use her soul to complete the final purification of the Buddha's Nenji, but what happened later prevented her from dying in this way. Later, with the help of Uesugi Sumika, she successfully possessed the doll and continued to assist her brother.
[The Kujo Family's Favors] As a family, the Kujo Family's heritage and power far exceed your imagination, whether in the supernatural realm or among ordinary people. (5 Blades, 5 Lights, 5 Cups)
The harvest was fruitful. Although the Kujo family was not well-known in the Tokyo area, it was just a little-known name. In fact, as a psychic, the head of the family, Kujo Saya, was a guest of honor for many wealthy people who were suffering from certain troubles. It was just that those customers had set an invisible threshold for this kind of "service".
"In that case, I can just ask them to bandage my wounds and I can go home and hide for two days. If my family finds out about it, it could cause problems if I stay in the hospital."
Uesugi Cheng's feet floated in the air, and his entire spirit body hung upside down, but his head seemed to violate the laws of physics and still covered his body.
"Um, Uesugi-sama! What does it feel like to become a spirit?"
Baoyue Yexiao seemed to be very interested in the spiritual form of Uesugi Cheng. She tried to touch the spirit with her fingers. To be honest, she had hardly ever seen a spirit with which she could communicate in a friendly manner. Almost all the spirits she had seen were evil spirits that required means and education to communicate.
"How should I put it? It's very strange. It's completely different from the perspective I have as a human, and..."
Uesugi Cheng's body merged into the wall next to him, and then slowly fell from the ceiling.
"That's about it. Speaking of which, is that ridiculously large thing in the sky your target?"
Baoyue Yexiao was stunned at first, then spoke in disbelief.
"Uesugi-sama... can you see it?"
"Ah, it's quite difficult to deal with, and it hasn't even been born yet... God knows where the idiot came from to breed such a monster."
