In Tokyo, I draw cards and become a big demon

As time passed, the girl's body on the stone slab gradually changed from solid to translucent, and then to a transparent color that was thinner than the tears flowing from the corners of her eyes.

Finally, it turned into a point of light that could no longer be captured by the eyes, and drifted away in the boundless earth of the eternal world along with her loud cry that had been suppressed for too long.

Uesugi Tetsu witnessed all of this.

After a long while, he spoke softly, as if saying goodbye.

"Goodbye, Ye Chun."

[Main Mission 2, Saving Ye Chun, Completed! ]

[You have exceeded the requirements for the second main mission. Do you want to accumulate the rewards?]

"accumulation."

Uesugi Tetsu turned his head and looked in the direction of the Izanuki Tunnel.

Even though he was far away, he could faintly feel the tremendous spiritual power and bone-chilling coldness coming from it.

Snow woman.

What followed was resentment and wailing that was even deeper than this bone-chilling spiritual power.

Then, at the other side of Uesugi Tetsu's sight, a white dot that was absolutely impossible to ignore appeared in the pitch-black night sky.

Chapter 133 Regional Settlement, Rewards for Pick Three out of Six

Still a snow girl.

She did not flee in an attempt to avoid it, but instead deliberately stayed in the center of the vast and boundless resentment that seemed to have been accumulated for a long time, opened her hands, and poured out her spiritual power.

Uesugi Tetsu thought in great confusion:

Is the Snow Girl... using all her might to devour this resentment, which is enough to drive most demons into madness?

But why?

Even if we say that the Snow Girl has good intentions, it doesn't make sense - this is the ordinary land with widespread desolation and demons everywhere, not the densely populated modern world.

So what if these resentments dissipate?

——The Snow Girl gave the answer with reality.

As Uesugi Che silently gazed from afar, the endless resentment was gradually enveloped by the sudden snowstorm, dissipated, swallowed up, and finally disappeared.

The wails and pain that reached the sky all disappeared, replaced by a little confusion, a little hope, and a little gratitude.

Those weak but countless resentments dissipated after expressing gratitude.

All those wronged souls who were unable to be liberated and were about to fall into the earth of eternity and transform into ignorant and foolish demons to wander forever became Buddhas and disappeared with satisfaction.

Because of the Snow Girl.

Because she made a promise to each wronged soul to fulfill their obsession.

——Even though the Snow Girl knew that she would never be able to fulfill these obsessions and wishes in this lifetime, and would always suffer from these countless obsessions, she still did it.

The scarlet pupils shrank slightly, and Uesugi Che could see the snow girl standing in mid-air with her face still as cold as ice.

It was as if what I had just done was a trivial matter not worth mentioning, as if these obsessions that would linger endlessly in my thoughts and mind did not exist.

In the silence, the ice-blue and scarlet eyes met for a moment, then quickly separated.

Then Uesugi Tetsu understood.

I understood why the Snow Girl had brewed a soul soup filled with resentment in the basement of the mountain hotel and then drank it alone.

——In fact, it was exactly the same as what she was doing now.

——Find those broken souls, take on their obsessions in life, and then prevent those people from turning into demons, but instead allow them to become Buddhas and disappear.

As for why the Snow Girl did this?

Who knows, maybe she simply didn't want to see this happen.

The moment these thoughts popped up in Uesugi Che's mind, several prompts suddenly popped up in front of his eyes.

[Uncover the Snow Girl's true purpose. Current progress: 100%.]

[Side Quest 2: Mountain Inn, Completed!]

[You have completed all tasks. Do you want to settle the rewards? ]

It turns out that the Snow Girl brewed the soul soup simply to absorb resentment and bear obsession...

Uesugi Che couldn't help but recall that face that had no expression most of the time and was as cold as ten thousand years of ice.

What kind of soul is hidden under that face that treats everyone indifferently?

Uesugi Tetsu's desire to take Yuki Onna as a Shikigami became stronger - it is definitely better to have a kind-hearted Shikigami than the opposite.

Not to mention that the Snow Girl is very powerful, and her sense of propriety in doing things and speaking is even better than his own.

She is the perfect choice to control the noisy Erchiang.

But, there probably is no chance.

Uesugi Che stared at the spiritual tides and space cracks that continued to appear in the distance after the collapse of Rugetsu Station and the shattering of another world. He watched as the Snow Girl, whose spiritual power was almost exhausted, was sucked into it by a pure black crack.

In this way, the Snow Girl probably left the ordinary world and entered the boundless "deep sea" between the present world and the ordinary world.

There is no certainty as to where the Snow Girl will appear next in the vast world.

As for appearing in the present world?

All kidding aside, it's not like the first wave is imminent.

The area of the ordinary world is many times larger than the present world, and the distance between the two is unknown. The probability of falling from the ordinary world into the present world due to "ocean currents" can almost be said to be negligible.

"Pity……"

Uesugi Tetsu sighed slightly, turned around and prepared to ask Nanjo Aimi to find someone to find a second Shikigami for him.

However, it is not easy to find a suitable Shikigami, not to mention that Uesugi Tetsu is actually very picky.

They say they have started looking, but there is no certainty as to when they will find a good candidate.

But next we have to deal with the upcoming third map, which will definitely be more difficult to deal with, and the increasingly turbulent world. We must cultivate a second helper as soon as possible.

Therefore, the plan to capture the second Shikigami must be put on the agenda.

"Master Che, what's a pity?"

The two-foot-tall man in his arms gave him a look of concern and curiosity.

Uesugi Che lowered his head and first glanced at the remaining time of the "anger" effect, and decided to hold Lady Ershaku during this period to speed up her recovery.

Then he patted Erchisama's soft and elastic thigh, rolled his eyes and said,

"It's a pity you're not small enough... Two-foot-sama, could you please return to your two-foot form? It's tiring for me to hold you like this."

Oh? Not small enough?

Does Lord Che prefer a smaller one?

Because of a casual joke made by Uesugi Tetsu, Lord Nishaku's thoughts suddenly became confused.

In just a moment, she felt the approach of a huge crisis!

——If Lord Che likes the smaller one, then that airport with the same front and back is getting a great deal!

——Not to mention that Master Che practices with her every day. If that guy secretly touches her, she won’t even be qualified to know!

Then based on the news I saw on my phone and the Internet a few days ago, wouldn’t I have become a “victim”?

If it really comes to that, then she will have no choice but to hide in the corner alone... Woohoo, I don't want things to turn out like this.

What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?!

Although she had the glorious record of "being kissed on the forehead by Lord Che", Lord Erchi still wanted to go a step further, so that he could run to the airport and laugh at her.

Actually.

Uesugi Tetsu simply felt that it was difficult to use force to hold the two-foot-tall adult in his eight-foot state.

Moreover, the latter had been squirming slightly in one direction in his arms, naively thinking that he couldn't notice.

If this continues, my hands will be forced into strange places.

However, in view of the selfless performance of Lord Nishaku today, Uesugi Tetsu did not criticize or educate him directly, but instead used this method to remind him indirectly.

Watching the huge car in his arms "po" turn into a little girl that could be lifted with one hand, Uesugi Che moved his shoulders, changed his posture, and felt a lot more relaxed for a moment.

"Nishiki-sama is much more obedient now... If he continues to behave well, it wouldn't be wrong to reward him sometime in the future."

Uesugi Tetsu just sat there holding Nishaku-sama until the effect of "anger" ended.

……

In a villa in Arakawa district.

Tired and weak, Uesugi Che slowly opened his eyes on the big bed in the room.

He turned his head with some difficulty, just in time for the first ray of sunlight peeking out from below the horizon to hit his face.

A cool feeling immediately appears on the skin.

It is neither as cold as the sunshine in spring and winter, nor as scorching as the sunshine in midsummer.

The coming summer is referring to the weather right now.

After the upgrade, the side effects of anger are much smaller than those of angry eyes. At least with all attributes maintained at "5", Uesugi Tetsu can still move like an ordinary person with sub-health.

It was just that the triple weakness of his body, internal energy and spiritual power made him particularly uncomfortable.

Uesugi Tetsu supported himself on the bed and slowly sat up, looking at the gradually rising sun, smiling at someone unknown.

"That's what salvation is."

All that needs to be done has been done, and the regrets are over.

Next, it’s time to take stock of the spoils from breaking through Ruyue Station.

Uesugi Che yawned comfortably and pulled the fluffy quilt to his neck, leaving only his head exposed.

He first looked at the dropped items that he had not had time to look at after killing Ruyue Station.

[You have obtained a round-trip train ticket (special item)! ]

"ticket?"

Uesugi Tetsu looked at the ticket in his storage backpack, which looked no different from an ordinary Shinkansen ticket, and looked at its panel with some confusion.

【Round-trip train ticket (special item)】

[Effect: Tear off the anti-counterfeiting label on the far right of the ticket. After silently repeating your destination three times, the train to the eternal world will take you there. This ticket can be used twice within one month of tearing off the anti-counterfeiting label.]

[——If you have a ticket, you are not considered a fare evader! The train is an absolutely safe place for you.]

The train to the eternal world.

Uesugi Tetsu's heart trembled as he remembered the information related to it.

When he was doing the area unlocking mission, he had boarded this strange train that would travel back and forth between the ordinary and the present worlds, passing through many terrifying stations.

Battlefield, Heian-kyō, spooky school...

Moreover, although this train only counts non-human beings such as demons and ghost stories as passengers, it seems to accept all humans as well.

But now they are saying that these "passengers" did not buy tickets?

That's why Kujo Tsubaki said that the train would frequently undergo strange changes - it turned out that this was the train's way of clearing out passengers like them who evaded the ticket.

But now that I have this ticket, the danger of taking the train is greatly reduced.

Moreover, the ticket is not limited to being used in the ordinary world or the present world.

In this way, Uesugi Tetsu can first enter the ordinary world, and then take this train to airdrop to some places that are absolutely inaccessible by ordinary means.

In short, although it cannot be used immediately, it is definitely a prop that will be very useful in the foreseeable future.

"But the hidden boss of a map only drops this much. It's a bit too shabby."

Uesugi Tetsu complained in his heart, remembering the three-star "aggregate of resentment" he met before exiting the tunnel.

According to common sense, that guy should be the final boss of Rugetsu Station.
