In Tokyo, I draw cards and become a big demon

Since the Key of History can only be used in the ordinary world, you can wait until you enter the next map to explore how to use it, or wait until the next time you enter the walking gathering to ask Huojin God for clues.

There's no need to overthink it now.

After viewing the regional settlement rewards at Ruzuki Station, the next area unlocking task is for the next map.

[Since you have completed all the quests in the current area "Kusurugi Station", the "Area Unlock Quest" has been released!]

[Area Unlock Mission: Wind and Rain Barrel Narrow Space]

Unlocking conditions: Arrive at the ancient Owari Okehazama Mountain during the rain, then enter the historical shadow of the "Battle of Okehazama" and follow Oda Nobunaga to victory in the battle.

"Okehazama?"

Uesugi Che was stunned for a moment. These three words were place names that even a history illiterate like him who had no knowledge of Japan's Warring States history knew clearly.

Its fame is almost comparable to the later "Honnoji BBQ".

However, this time the area unlocking task was surprisingly simple.

Because in history, Oda Nobunaga led two or three thousand Oda troops to raid the main camp of the daimyo nicknamed "the best archer in Tokaido" in a rainstorm.

Then they took the daimyo's head and turned the tables with a force ten times their size.

From then on, Oda Nobunaga truly began his career as the "Sixth Heavenly Demon King", and the Battle of Okehazama became a legendary battle that cannot be ignored in the history of the Japanese Warring States Period.

Uesugi Tetsu took out his mobile phone and checked, and found that "Okehazama" was probably located in the area of Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture.

If you want to go there, you can get there in a few hours by Shinkansen, which is quite close.

"It seems Ririko's family is also over there..."

Uesugi Tetsu remembered the information he had seen about the Tokugawa family before, and after weighing the matter for a moment, he decided not to let Ririko know his destination.

Anyway, I was just going there to open the map and not do much else. There was no need to let Lilizi know and cause trouble.

"But forget it for today and tomorrow."

After closing the prompt panel of the area unlocking task, Uesugi Che stretched, slowly climbed down from the bed, and stood by the window to look at the scenery.

The side effects of anger are still continuing. If I rush on my way now, I might be killed by a big monster that suddenly appears on the way, so it is understandable to rest for a day or two.

Uesugi Che still managed to spare dozens of hours of rest time.

Moreover, I can use this free time to organize my current belongings and what I have learned, so as to have a rough plan for future development.

"Oh, yes, there's also a vegetarian gun."

Uesugi Tetsu opened the contact list and called Nanjo Aimi - since she had learned the technique of spear, she must have a spear in her hand.

The quality is not required, as long as it is strong and durable.

"You have something to say."

The call was still connected within seconds. It seemed that since becoming the Yin-Yang Master, Nanjo Aimi had completely bid farewell to her previous slacking career.

Uesugi Tetsu was also straightforward and said, "Sister Nanjo, give me a few spears for training and transition."

After a pause, Uesugi Tetsu added, "Don't use a sacred spear or one inscribed with Yin-Yang magic. It won't work."

"You can also use a gun?" Nanjo Aimi's voice was calm with a hint of surprise.

This doubt is quite normal. It is often said that one learns to use a stick for a month, a knife for a year, and a gun for a lifetime. With a gun, you can't learn anything in a few days. At best, you can only learn how to poke, stab, and smash.

It may be effective on ordinary people, but for a transcendent of Uesugi Tetsu's level, this small gap between cold weapons is not an insurmountable gap.

Not to mention that Uesugi Tetsu had never shown any signs of practicing with a gun or touching a gun in the past.

Uesugi Tetsu replied, "Just barely. I happened to have touched a spear these past couple of days and it seemed to suit me, so I wanted to try practicing."

"The base spear is the most basic and doesn't have many variations, so I want to start with that."

Nanjo Aimi stopped talking.

——Since Uesugi Tetsu said he is suitable, it proves that his talent in spearmanship is at least on the same level as his talents in other areas.

As for Uesugi Tetsu's other talents... he learned the art of controlling spirits in one go and mastered the art of Five Thunders and Qi He in just a few minutes.

So Nanjo Aishi stopped asking questions and asked, "Do you need a spearmanship teacher? I can help you get two junior dojo masters over."

Uesugi Tetsu: “No need.”

"Okay then." Nanjo Aimi didn't hesitate. She seemed to have instructed Manatsu to do something, then replied, "As for ordinary guns, we can deliver them to your door today. Just remember to open the door when they knock."

"okay!"

Uesugi Tetsu responded with a smile - the good thing about having the Special Affairs Office with Nanjo sister's support is that ordinary needs can be solved with just a phone call, saving a lot of trouble.

Otherwise, for example, if he wanted a spear today, he would have to go out several times and might not even be able to get a suitable one.

Afraid that Nanjo Aimei would hang up the phone, Uesugi Tetsu coughed twice and quickly said, "Also, there are two more things."

Hearing that there was something going on on the other end of the phone, Nanjo Aimi stopped her hands from typing on the keyboard.

She stretched her wrists, took a sip of her empty coffee, and leaned back in her boss chair after a long absence. She put her feet on the desk and said lazily,

"Don't be in a hurry. Speak slowly."

Uesugi Tetsu said calmly, "One is to send a cell phone with today's 'express delivery'."

"cell phone?"

"Yeah, my shikigami is clamoring for it." Uesugi Tetsu curled his lips helplessly, "This is also because Nunu and Hiyabo each have a phone, making her salivate and feel very unbalanced."

When Nanjo Aimi heard this, she glanced at Nyu, who had been working on the same document he had given her for half an hour, but had changed the location of her phone countless times.

He looked again at Hiyabo, who was watching children's cartoons with headphones as big as her body, and didn't want the noise to disturb her even if it was shaking.

Then she said calmly, "It's a small matter. I'll also arrange a phone card for you... Just don't let her forget her owner after getting the phone."

In the corner of the desk, Nu Nu shrank back when she felt the cold gaze, and a bad premonition arose in her heart.

——It would be a good thing if you could forget me!

Uesugi Tetsu thought it would be best to let Master Ershaku play with his mobile phone happily every day, so that he would not bother him all day long.

When you need to use it, just grab Erchidren and hold him close to your arms.

But Nanjo Aimi doesn’t think so... It seems that every family has its own problems.

After sighing, Uesugi Tetsu continued, "Then there's the matter of the Shikigami—Nanjo-sister, I want to contract a Shikigami with at least three-star strength that I can communicate with normally."

Can that guy handle the cost and difficulty of contracting a three-star or higher Shikigami?

Although Nanjo Aimi had some doubts in her heart, she did not show them. She never interfered with other people's decisions after careful consideration.

She said, "Then I will make a list for you later. If you like any of them, tell me and I will bring them to you."

"Thank you very much, Nanjo-san."

Nanjo Aimi: "If you want to thank me, then don't die during the real sword test."

She lowered her eyes, drank the last sip of coffee, and then threw the empty coffee cup accurately on the head of Nu Nu, who was secretly playing with her mobile phone again, with a "dong" sound.

The latter, who was secretly reading a light novel, was so frightened that his hair stood on end and he almost dropped his phone.

"The disciples of Longyue Hall must have hidden killer moves that no one has ever seen, so even if you are absolutely sure of your chances, don't underestimate them..."

Nanjo Aishi sighed imperceptibly: "If you fail or something unexpected happens, just admit defeat and step down immediately. Life is the most important thing."

After hearing this, Uesugi Tetsu was slightly stunned. He didn't understand why Nanjo Aimi took the trouble to emphasize this matter again and again.

But after thinking about it for a while, Uesugi Tetsu understood.

This is probably related to Nanjo-san's unique personal experience, as well as those partners who used to work with her but are now all underground.

Uesugi Tetsu didn't say much, but just replied calmly,

"rest assured."

"Well, bye then."

Nanjo Aimi hung up the phone on her own initiative.

Uesugi Tetsu also put down his phone, feeling a strange feeling in his heart - as time went by, every time he called Nanjo sister, she sounded more motherly.

Because he was always the first to make a request, Nanjo Aimi would agree without hesitation regardless of whether it was reasonable or not, and then start nagging and giving him instructions and warnings.

After smacking his lips and savoring the taste for a while, Uesugi Tetsu released Nishaku-sama from the Ksitigarbha statue and told her that her cell phone would arrive in the evening.

"Great! Long live Lord Che!"

After saying this, Ershaku-sama pounced on Uesugi Tetsu and hugged him tightly like an octopus, with his ten fingers clasped behind his back and his legs tied in a knot behind his back, making him look like a little pendant.

She blinked her big eyes and looked up and asked, "Actually, I can be wronged and be Master Che's bed warmer, po~"

The little thing is not satisfied with the bargain it got, and wants to eat and take it all, right?

Uesugi Che wanted to pull her away, but the physical fitness of ordinary people nowadays is really not as good as that of Ershaku-sama who has a strength of one and a half stars.

Just at this moment, Lilizi pushed open the door and wanted to ask him if he wanted to join her in the sauna.

The girl stood at the doorway, watching the scene, crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow: "Uesugi-kun, am I here at the wrong time?"

"No, you came just in time."

Uesugi Tetsu turned around and pointed at the two-foot-tall figure hanging on his waist and said seriously, "Please help me pull this white-hat octopus off."

……

No matter how much Erchi-sama fought, he could not shake the hand that was pinching the back of her neck.

This made her more determined to become stronger in the future - otherwise, she wouldn't even be able to snatch a position from this female devil!

The two-foot-tall adult, whose bottom line had gradually been compromised, sat at the dining table in a bad mood, eating the children's breakfast made for her by her "enemy" in big mouthfuls.

Goo, even she had to admit that the food cooked by the flat-chested female devil was delicious.

In that case, let’s just get along peacefully with her when we eat from now on!

After making this decision in his mind, Erchidaren ate the children's meal faster and more happily.

On the other side, Ririk was staring at the crystal clear pink heart wrapped in transparent glass in Uesugi Tetsu's hand.

She curiously approached the Dissociative Love that was sealed in special glass and asked,

"Uesugi-kun, what is this?"

"Special material for sharpening one's mind."

After staring at Li Li Ai for a while, Uesugi Che did not notice any strange thoughts in his mind, so he nodded secretly in his heart.

——Facts have proved that state of mind is indeed linked to will, but it is not entirely determined by the attributes of will.

For example, even if his willpower attribute has dropped to 5 points, he will not be easily confused by dissociative love because his state of mind has reached the "clear mirror" stage.

Although I still need to be vigilant and keep my mind focused, I won't be so easily filled with strange ideas by accident.

"This is...good stuff."

Lilizi squatted down with her eyes shining. She clapped her hands and said, "If you can still bear it, Uesugi-kun, then bring it with you to the sauna."

"A high temperature environment is also helpful for tempering one's mental state."

"That's something you can try."

Uesugi Tetsu replied, touching his chin.

Even an ordinary person would not be defeated by just a sauna, not to mention that there is corona energy circulating in his body, so his ability to withstand high temperatures is still good.

"Then it's settled!" Lilizi snapped her fingers in front of him, turned around and walked downstairs, "I'm going to take a shower first, it's okay if you go slowly."

——After taking a shower, Uesugi Che, who had never taken a sauna before, tied a thick white towel around his hips like in anime, tied a knot, walked to the sauna room and pushed open the glass door.

Chi Chi Chi.

Suddenly, the sound of water falling on hot stones and evaporating reached Uesugi Che's ears.

He blinked and found that Lilizi was adding light green potion to the volcanic stone beside her with a wooden spoon.

——This potion seems to be made by Lilizi using a homemade recipe. It is very beneficial in nourishing the body and soothing the mind.

Of course, Uesugi Tetsu had never experienced it before, and he had only heard Liliko talk about it before.

As he stepped onto the stairs, Uesugi Tetsu paused slightly.

Because... this angle seems a little subtle.

Because the volcanic rocks were piled in the corner, if Lilizi didn't want to move them, she would first need to scoop up the medicine with a wooden spoon, and then turn sideways and stretch out her hand to pour the medicine on them.
