In Tokyo, I draw cards and become a big demon

This time, his wish for his father to become a dragon has indeed come true.

Clang.

Just as Uesugi Che was preparing to heat up a lunch box to fill his stomach, he suddenly heard the sound of a bowl hitting the tiles on the balcony.

He pretended not to hear.

Uesugi Tetsu first finished his lunch box honestly, and then after Ghost Dad sat down again to watch the game, he said, "It's time to put away the clothes on the balcony," and picked up the porcelain bowl on the ground inconspicuously.

【Kappa Bowl】

[Quality: Ordinary]

【Effect: After wearing, it increases water content slightly. 】

[——Every kappa carries a porcelain bowl on its head.]

Uesugi Che was stunned. He didn't expect that it was actually a prop, and it could help him make up for his weak underwater combat ability.

This old man really gives him some unexpected surprises from time to time.

Putting the Kappa bowl into the storage backpack, Uesugi Tetsu had already imagined the wonderful scene in which his father, who would stay at home, would bring him a few extra props every month.

Just think of it as the rent and electricity bills that Dad voluntarily paid. It's reasonable.

Uesugi Tetsu was just planning to go out and find an open space to practice swordplay when the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Who will call me at this time?

He took out his cell phone and found it was an unfamiliar number.

After thinking for a while, Uesugi Che decided to answer the call: "Hello, who is this..."

"Uesugi-kun! Help me!"

A female voice came from the other end of the phone, trembling but still clear in speech.

Uesugi Che was stunned for a moment, then quickly recalled the owner of the voice.

——Kitano Runa!

——She is Ririk’s best friend who is quiet, wears glasses and has pigtails.

But didn’t she go to the Special Affairs Office headquarters with Shizuma Manatsu? Could it be that something big happened in the Special Affairs Office?

No, that's unlikely... because there has been no news from Nanjo Aimi and Ririko.

So it's her personal reason?

Even after being warned, he still caused trouble.

He now had some understanding of how Nanjo Aimi viewed him.

Uesugi Che didn't think much about it and just asked, "Where?"

"I sent it to you..." After a few gasps mixed with fear, Kitano Runa's very weak voice came, "It's Bai Prajna."

Uesugi Tetsu's pupils shrank—the White Prajna from Arakawa's mysterious village had actually arrived in reality?!

There was absolutely no warning.

In an instant, Uesugi Tetsu's mentality suddenly changed.

Now he has to thank Kitano Runa very much. If she hadn't risked her life to lure the snake out of its hole, his main quest might not have been completed and he might have been stuck.

"Uesugi-kun, you have to hurry up. I don't have much time left..."

After saying this, the phone was hung up.

"Dad! My friend wants me to go out and play!"

After saying this, Uesugi Tetsu immediately opened the door and ran out. While going downstairs, he found the location information sent by Kitano Runa in the text message.

——The straight-line distance to his home is less than three kilometers.

——It would take less than three minutes for Xiao Prajna to cover this distance.

Uesugi Tetsu randomly found an alley without surveillance and transformed himself into Laughing Prajna, then put on the loose school uniform jacket on his head.

In this way, unless ordinary people observe closely, they will not be able to recognize that this is actually a Laughing Prajna.

With his current running speed, ordinary people could only see a passing phantom and nothing more.

On the way, Uesugi Tetsu also called Nanjo Aimi and Ririko, but the result was a busy tone and no one answered.

"Is that why you found me?"

Xiao Prajna's eyes were cold as he moved quickly through the streets and alleys.

"Kitano-san, don't panic... I'm here to help you!"

Chapter 44 Congratulations, you have successfully unlocked the second stage

Kitano Runa is an atheist.

Because ever since she could remember, she often saw or heard some "movements that did not belong to this world" in sparsely populated, gloomy, or strange places.

But no matter what she saw or heard, the final result was just a false alarm, as if the naive girl was scaring herself.

After coming to Tokyo alone to go to school, Kitano Runa often explored various popular ghost story locations, horror rankings, and even slept on the legendary mass grave.

However, Kitano Runa has always been alone.

She practiced the idea that "even if there really is a ghost, only I will die and my friends and family will not be involved", but in the end nothing happened.

So Kitano Runa doesn't believe in the existence of ghosts and gods in this world.

When a "hot ghost story trend" inexplicably swept Twitter a few days ago, she, as usual, wrote down all the summoning methods she saw, and then tried them one by one at home alone.

"If it's true, come out and let me see it!"

Kitano Runa said this after completing fourteen summoning rituals in one night.

That night, she heard countless strange noises and saw many unusual shadows, but was still disappointed to find nothing.

Just like before, like someone was making a fool of her, a clown.

"It's just another piece of false propaganda, using the supernatural as a banner to attract traffic." She thought after completing the last summoning ceremony of Bai Prajna.

Then one day at noon, she saw her best friend Shizuma Manatsu actually took out her cell phone and found a selfie with Bai Banruo.

"It must be P." Kitano Runa thought.

But then, she saw that Ririko and Uesugi-kun became serious at the same time, and then they found someone who looked like a policeman in the afternoon.

Her years of experience in following anime have taught her that if someone acts on their own and disagrees with everyone at this time, they will definitely be the first to die.

In the car, Manatsu-san, who was in uniform, talked to them a lot - roughly saying that ghosts and gods do exist in this world, and they are very dangerous.

Although Kitano Runa is an atheist, she is not stupid.

So she chose to believe it.

After hanging up the phone, which was not sure whether it would be of any use or not, cold sweat ran down the temples of the girl who was leaning against the corner.

But years of experience in "seeing" and testing her courage have enabled Kitano Runa to remain calm even in such extreme situations.

She held the half-burned concealment talisman paper in her hand, thinking that in just over thirty seconds she would have to face that damn Bai Prajna again.

"No matter what, we have to take Mom away from here first."

Kitano Runa trembled as she withdrew her gaze from the middle-aged woman who had fainted on the ground. She gritted her teeth and took out the last string of glowing beads from her sleeve.

——These exorcism tools were taken from Shizuma Mafuyu’s drawer before she came here.

——Her mother came to Tokyo from the countryside to visit her, and ended up meeting Bai Prajna who was entrenched there at home. The story was that simple.

Kitano Runa couldn't find anyone to help her in the Special Affairs Office, and she didn't want to burden Shizuma Manatsu, so she had to come here alone with some miscellaneous props.

She held her breath tightly and stared at the pale evil ghost mask that was searching for her, but still did not make the slightest movement.

Don't be impatient, Kitano Runa.

She said to herself in her heart.

She moved towards her mother's position, but when she was about to carry her mother on her back, Kitano Runa hesitated for a moment.

The eighteen-year-old girl stared at the rosary in her hand, counting down the time left on the concealing talisman, knowing that this was her last chance to escape alone.

——If she gave up her mother, she would definitely survive; but if she tried to save her mother, both of them might die here.

How to decide...

"Such a simple question, do I still need to think about it? This is my mother!"

Kitano Runa pulled the rosary off her wrist and threw it hard towards the empty balcony.

The wandering Bai Prajna was instantly attracted by the glowing rosary and pounced towards it!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she picked up her mother and ran towards the open door with difficulty.

Feeling her lungs burning in just a moment, Kitano Runa, a super homebody, roared in her heart:

——If I can survive this time, I must definitely start exercising!

"hiss--!"

A faint burning sound and Bai Prajna's angry roar were heard from the balcony.

Kitano Runa had just stepped out of the house when she heard the noise behind her almost disappear.

It’s over.

The girl felt a chill in her heart. She hadn't even reached the stairs yet. The monster could pounce on her at a distance of more than ten meters.

Kitano Runa quickly put her mother behind the door and ran in the opposite direction, raising her hands high and shouting at Bai Banruo: "Don't you want to eat me? Come on!"

After saying that, she turned around and ran downstairs. Under the influence of adrenaline, she took two steps to cross the ten stairs, running at the fastest speed in her life.

At this moment, Kitano Runa felt that she was just like the lone hero in the anime with his back to everyone, so handsome!

Then, she was pressed against the wall by Bai Prajna, who was much faster than her.

"puff--"

Kitano Runa felt as if her whole body was numb from the impact, as if it was about to fall apart.

Looking at Bai Banruo who was looking down at her, Kitano Runa looked up at the sky with lifeless eyes, thinking that a sports loser like herself could only be handsome for three seconds.

dying.

Kitano Runa thought.

She was about to close her eyes and wait for death quietly, but suddenly she saw a cold light in the air.

Ugh, wait, what is that?

Kitano Runa was stunned and didn't even care that Bai Banruo had pinched her shoulder.

——The sword is flying in the sky?

The next moment, the cold light and the hoarse, low roar arrived in front of her at the same time, illuminating Kitano Runa's lifeless pupils.

"——Tooth!"

The trembling sword tip pierced through the illusory chest of Confessional Prajna, abruptly stopping the evil ghost's movements. Kitano Runa turned her head in a daze and saw the expressionless face of Uesugi Tetsu.

The girl saw him lower his head slightly and breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I'm not a step too late."

After he finished speaking, a strong wind came from behind Uesugi Tetsu, lifting Kitano Runa's hair.

The girl was bewildered - this is the fourth floor, how did he get up here?

"Guests are coming, aren't you going to welcome them?"

Uesugi Tetsu received a cassock slash and pulled Kaga Kiyomizu out of Bai Prajna's body. At this time, he saw a prompt pop up above Bai Prajna's head.

[Lightly Injured White Prajna Projection (One Star)]

It turns out that this is not Bai Prajna's real body. No wonder he feels that even if he does not transform, he is not so strong that he cannot be defeated.

Uesugi Tetsu, who had just finished the incarnation state of Laughing Prajna, thought.

Because Kitano Runa was present, Uesugi Tetsu tried his best not to be exposed, so the sword attack from Ya Tu before was the last sword stabbed by the incarnation of Laughing Prajna.

However, judging from its condition, it seemed that his sword was not very effective, and at most only caused it minor injuries.
