In Tokyo, I draw cards and become a big demon

Not to mention that the attribute bonus that Uesugi Tetsu originally obtained when he was upgraded from half a star to one star far exceeded that of other ordinary monsters.

“So, this is a noble epic.”

Now, Uesugi Tetsu has the confidence to easily solo the two-and-a-half-star Nue that almost pushed him into despair not long ago.

If you only use one incarnation, you may be seriously injured or even defeated by the opponent.

But if White Prajna and the three-tailed fox incarnation alternated with each other, both long-range and short-range, Uesugi Tetsu couldn't figure out how Nue, who fought only on instinct and had no knowledge of Yin-Yang magic, could defeat him.

Perhaps Nue's physical attributes are still much higher than his, but Uesugi Tetsu is not a brainless demon. His breathing method and natural rational flow are not practiced in vain.

Add to that the cold steel arm armor I just got...

"Maybe it's not impossible for me to kill that Nue without taking any damage."

After using his newly acquired talent "Vortex" to clear the qi and spiritual power in his body that were slightly blocked due to his body becoming stronger again, Uesugi Tetsu stuffed the cards back into his storage backpack and walked towards the Special Affairs Office.

"By the way, why did that couple stop making any noise just now? Could they have been scared off by the shimmering music I played when I completed my upgrade?"

Uesugi Tetsu smacked his lips, feeling a little sorry.

I finally found a deserted place in the middle of the night, but ended up encountering a ghost when I was in high spirits. How much of a psychological trauma must this have caused me...

Uesugi Che walked across the empty street, but saw a familiar figure sitting on the steps smoking at the door of the Special Affairs Office.

At this time, no one else would sit alone at the gate and smoke.

"Sister Nanjo, have you checked the files on the Demon Guidance Association?"

He walked up and asked.

The woman tutted, her expression disgusted: "You reek of blood, don't die in front of me."

Nanjo Aimi patted the step beside her and moved her hips to signal him to sit down: "What are you doing out so late?"

Uesugi Tetsu sat down and pounded his chest: "It's almost done. I'll just take a shower and be done."

He was indeed not talking nonsense. He had the healing combination of the Awakening Spirit Mist and Erchidama before. After going out, Prajna's incarnation was promoted to one and a half stars, and his body was strengthened again, so the original injury was naturally no longer a problem.

Nanjo Aishi counted on his fingers in his mind: "It's only been a few hours? Could it be that this kid has also learned a second breathing method focused on healing?"

However, Nanjo Aimi did not ask this question.

Reasonable social distance is key to maintaining good relationships.

She shook off the ash from her cigarette and said slowly, "In the past, there were indeed records of demon guides. Almost every time there was a major change or event, they would be recorded."

“But that’s about it.”

Nanjo Aishi said, "They don't seem to have done anything major. At most, they just came in to have some soup. You just need to pay attention to your daily life."

Uesugi Tetsu nodded, this coincided with what he heard from Katsumi.

——Because most of the "superiors" of the Demon Guild are four stars, and at most five stars.

It’s not that four-star and five-star monsters are not terrifying, but if they only have this kind of strength, it would be a bit difficult for them to extend their claws from the extremely chaotic ordinary world to the modern world.

——Let’s tell this information to Nanjo-san as well.

It just so happens that it’s time to lay the groundwork for his “three-tailed fox friend who’s the shrine chief.”

So Uesugi Che said, "Regarding the Demon Guide Association, I have one more thing to mention."

"tell me the story."

Uesugi Tetsu: "Didn't you just ask me why I was going out so late? Actually, I went to meet a friend and asked about this matter."

Then, Uesugi Tetsu told Nanjo Aimi all the information about the Demon Guide Association that Katsumi had told him.

But it all became "I heard it from my friend the three-tailed fox."

Nanjo Aimi listened to this and smoked silently until the tobacco burned out. Then she suddenly laughed and said, "Uesugi-kun, it's a good thing you didn't tell this to the Onmyoji, and it's also a good thing I was sitting next to you."

"Onmyoji Bureau?" Uesugi Che was stunned. "Isn't this just another name for the Special Affairs Bureau?"

"puff……"

Nanjo Aimi slapped her thigh and almost died of laughter: "Don't tell me you don't even know such basic knowledge, Uesugi-kun!"

Uesugi Che was stunned. When he met the Kujo Tsubaki operations specialist on the train, he had already confused the two.

——But from what Nanjo-san said, it seems that the Onmyoji Bureau and the Special Affairs Bureau have completely different meanings?

After laughing for a long while, Nanjo Aimi narrowed her eyes and approached Uesugi Tetsu, smacking her lips in a strange way: "You really don't understand at all, Uesugi-kun."

Uesugi Che glanced at the lips that were so close to him, then slightly distanced himself: "Is this something I need to know?"

“Of course, it’s not necessary for ordinary people.”

Nanjo Aimi raised her eyes and exhaled tobacco smoke with a strong mint smell.

"But just what you just said is enough for the Onmyoji to sentence you to death, or to be thrown into a water dungeon for life."

She continued, "The Onmyoji is an ancient organization that has fought against demons for over a thousand years. They existed long before the concepts of ghost stories and supernatural events emerged."

"Over there, the hatred between humans and demons is almost impossible to resolve. Even the Shikigami contracts are much stricter than here."

“That’s why.”

Nanjo Ai pointed at Uesugi Tetsu and said, "What you just did—'making friends with demons'—could already be considered 'treason' in their eyes."

"Although the Special Affairs Bureau was formed due to a split from the Onmyoji Bureau's ideologies, many people's families have lost their loved ones to demons and monsters, so they harbor a deep hatred for demons."

"But I will help you keep this secret." Nanjo Aimi bit another cigarette in her mouth and winked at him expressionlessly.

Uesugi Tetsu nodded silently - it turned out that Kujo Tsubaki on the train was an extreme case in the Onmyoji Bureau.

"Hmm... One more thing I have to say is that the Special Affairs Office and the Onmyoji Bureau have reached a consensus and have begun spreading the message of 'The Wave is Coming, Changshi is Floating' to everyone, preparing for the arrival of the first wave."

Nanjo Aimi raised her voice slightly: "But the Arakawa District is being sealed off as much as possible to prevent Aibieli from causing any bigger trouble. This is the only solution."

Before Aibieli took the initiative to detonate those "seeds", the Special Affairs Office did not have a good way to identify in batches who were the seeds, let alone ordinary people.

Because many mentally ill patients or NEETs who stay at home are more like "seeds" with extreme emotional fluctuations than seeds themselves.

Before the first wave arrives, it is impossible for love and separation to expose the long-dormant seeds.

So, this is where the awkwardness ends.

——If the news about demons and the world of the common people is spread like in other places, the chaos caused by the separation of love will only be greater.

Uesugi Tetsu understood what she meant, so he nodded: "I will try to keep a low profile at school."

"That's good."

Nanjo Aishi stood up, brushed off the cigarette ash on her clothes, and waved at him: "Also, say thank you to your three-tailed fox friend for me."

……

After taking a casual bath in the public bathhouse, Uesugi Tetsu quietly returned to Ririko's room and fell into a deep sleep.

The next afternoon.

It was the cool touch on his abdomen that woke Uesugi Che from his deep sleep.

He looked through the narrow window at the sun already high in the sky and yawned comfortably.

It's been a long time since I slept this long.

But the next moment, the cold and sticky feeling in the abdomen came again.

——So this isn’t the feeling from a dream?

Uesugi Che lowered his head and found that Ershaku-sama was pretending to sleep with his eyes closed in the quilt. His little hand had dishonestly slipped around his shirt and reached into it. It was trembling slightly and half rested on his abdomen.

He was probably touching me unscrupulously two seconds ago.

If you want to know how to tell if he's pretending to sleep... Can Lord Erchi still tremble all over when he's asleep just because of his casual glance?

She is not Lilizi.

Uesugi Che snorted coldly, grabbed the back of Erchi's neck with his hand, and lifted her from the bed to the ground.

"Still pretending, can you fool me?"

Master Erchi lowered his head guiltily, swishing circles with his fingers. "Pooh...Master Che, if I say I don't know how it became like this, do you believe me?"

She argued cunningly, "After Master Che went out and came back, his body suddenly became very fragrant. Just hugging him made me feel like I was soaking in a hot spring."

Uesugi Tetsu chuckled: "Believe it, I believe it too much."

Just as Lord Erchi was about to show a bright smile of success, a white hat fell from the sky and covered his head.

Uesugi Tetsu grinned at her and said, "If you don't behave yourself in the future, go back to the Ksitigarbha statue and stay there."

What Lord Nishaku said was equivalent to "Oh my god, he's drunk and can't control himself." How could Uesugi Tetsu believe this?

——No one believes it!

"Why is Master Che like this..."

Lord Erchi stuck out his tongue and muttered softly.

She originally thought that she was a big step ahead of the airport that was still sleeping next to her, and she was even far ahead in the other's bed.

Just as Lord Ershaku was thinking this, he saw Uesugi Tetsu walking past him, then squatting down next to the airport with a curious expression.

"Sleeping for so long..."

She saw Uesugi Che reach out and carefully pinch the airport's face, then whisper something intimately in the airport's ear to wake him up.

ah--!

Erchidaren gritted her teeth and clenched her pink fists, wrinkled her nose in jealousy, and cursed madly in her heart that the airport would become smaller and smaller, and finally turn into an iron wall with a flat surface.

She pursed her lips in disgust - why did Lord Che just grab me and throw me aside?

But in fact, what Uesugi Tetsu whispered in Ririko's ear was,

"—You haven't practiced for ten days. The first wave has already passed."

These words were like the devil's whisper to Lilizi. No matter how deep her sleep was, she would instantly wake up and open her eyes wide awake.

As soon as Lilizi opened her eyes, she saw Uesugi Tetsu, who was completely different from the one she was before she went to sleep. His whole body was overflowing with spiritual energy and he was staring at her with a smile.

——I, I really slept for ten days! ?

Lilizi knew that sleeping for ten days was not impossible for her.

——After the human body has been under extremely high intensity pressure for a long time, if it suddenly enters a deep sleep of extreme relaxation, it is very likely that it will sleep for a long time without realizing it.

If you ask Ririkoro why she believed it, it was because the spiritual power on Uesugi Tetsu was far different from what it was before she went to bed.

"I... slept for ten days? And I missed the first wave in my room?"

Lilizi murmured blankly.

But the confusion was only for a moment.

Lilizi immediately gritted her teeth, revealing a slightly ferocious expression. She reached out and grabbed Uesugi Che's collar and pulled him down.

Chapter 102: The Four Paths and Five Elements of the Great Yin-Yang Technique

"You're lying to me, aren't you, Uesugi Tetsu? Tell me you're lying to me!"

The tips of their noses were almost touching, and Uesugi Tetsu could even feel the amazing heat coming from Ririko's body under him like a furnace.

Urgent, she was impatient.

Uesugi Tetsu stared at the pair of slightly trembling eyes, thinking that cultivation was truly the most important thing in the world for Ririko.

How long has it been since she acted so out of control since she started practicing the mental method she figured out herself?

Uesugi Tetsu smiled: "Of course I didn't lie to you. The first wave passed uneventfully, and I single-handedly killed Aibieli before he could escape."

After hearing these words, Lilizi realized that the guy in front of her had indeed deceived her.

"whispering sound."

Lilizi sneered and let go of Uesugi Che. She closed her eyes and rubbed her temples in annoyance. "Uesugi-kun, sometimes I really want to teach you a lesson... Saying that in front of me is like a little female devil calling trash in front of a big tree, understand?"

"You're always welcome to teach me a lesson, Mr. Lilizi."

Uesugi Tetsu deliberately displayed the surging spiritual power fluctuations in front of her, and spread his hands: "But outside of teaching time, I will not deliberately control my power."

Lilizi's face darkened.
