I'm a demon in Tokyo!

Chapter 99 Demon Incarnation: Three-Tailed Fox (6k, please subscribe!)
Sheng Hai was stunned for a long time before he took out the gold-inlaid pocket watch he had snatched from the factory owners, opened it, and looked at the almost absolutely accurate time on it.

The hour hand on the pocket watch hadn't even made a half turn, or a quarter turn?
How did this walking lord obtain hundreds or even thousands of soul ashes in just a few hours?
If the time was extended to two or three days, or even shorter to just twenty-four hours, Sheng Hai would not be so shocked.

But a few hours...

Katsumi had been at Rugetsu Station for three or two days now, and had roughly figured out the characteristics of this special area shrouded in fog.

So he naturally understood that it was difficult to obtain soul ashes from the "Chi" wandering around here.

But in such a short time, let alone using special methods to leave this area and search for scattered monsters in the wilderness, it is impossible. Even if you are lucky enough to wait for that train, the round trip time of the train will be longer than this.

And this Prajna, when he walked, looked like he was not even at the two-star level.

Such potential, such means...

Sheng Hai pondered for a few seconds and had already made up his mind.

He immediately took out the two cold steel arm armors, smiled and waved his sleeves to collect the thousand soul ashes, bowed slightly and said: "Thank you for your patronage, you are welcome to visit us next time~"

Uesugi Che nodded silently, suppressed the joy in his heart and was about to leave here and return to the real world to draw cards.

Just as he was about to step out of the store, he was stopped by the folding fan with surging waves.

"My lord—wait!"

Katsumi had changed into a golden mask that looked cheerful at some point. Facing Uesugi Tetsu's scrutinizing gaze, he took out a straw doll wrapped in white cloth with a blank label on its head from his sleeve.

Katsumi handed the doll over: "This is a gift to you, sir."

Uesugi Tetsu touched the end of the doll, and a prompt immediately popped up in front of him——

【Life-saving doll】

[Quality: Epic]

[Effect: After writing one's true name in blood on the "Life-Replacing Cloth", upon death, one can be resurrected once through the doll. This effect is ineffective if killed by a six-star or higher being. This effect cannot be activated across the barrier between the real world and the ordinary world.]

[——Where to place the doll is a question.]

It's just resurrection, I can revive two every day...

Uesugi Tetsu's eyes narrowed as he saw the last sentence after the effect column.

Doesn't this mean that this doll can be effective in both the present world and the eternal world?

hiss--

This is equivalent to having an extra life.

"It would be best if you could recognize it, sir." Katsumi smiled, letting go of the doll and letting it fall into Uesugi Tetsu's hands. "Katsumi is willing to use this item to establish a good relationship with you, sir. I hope you won't despise it."

That’s right, after realizing the significance behind these 1,000 points of soul ash, Sheng Hai made the decision to make additional investments!
He originally thought that this kind of Prajna walking was just the walking of a person with conscience. Conscience is a good thing, and Shenghai also likes it, but it is just a like.

Maybe in the future, the two will meet again to trade, but that's all.

But he was able to bring such a relatively large amount of high-quality soul ash in just a few hours. This made Sheng Hai's keen business sense discover that the person in front of him seemed to have more than just a conscience.

What is more likely is... a real dragon that is still swimming in shallow water and has not encountered any storms!
The wave is about to rise, and the golden age is just around the corner.

At such a critical juncture, Sheng Hai would naturally not be stingy.

Anyway, it's just a rare life-saving doll that we lost.

But if you can establish a good relationship with one of the protagonists who may stand on the stage of the future, even if he just remembers you a little more, the return on this investment will increase tenfold or even a hundredfold.

"Thank you."

Although I don’t understand what Sheng Hai figured out in such a short time, the role of this life-saving doll is obvious.

So, Uesugi Tetsu put the doll away, turned around, and placed the Bull Demon Fang, the decayed Samurai Sode, and a spare Soul Ash Transformation Box on the counter. "Please, Mr. Katsumi, please estimate the price of these three items."

Sheng Hai nodded and glanced at the three items.

"A decent quality Bull Demon Fang is worth 40 soul ashes, but this large sleeve... isn't worth much. I'll give you 10 soul ashes at most."

It was already a pleasant surprise that two completely useless pieces of garbage could be exchanged for 50 soul ash points, so Uesugi Tetsu naturally nodded and agreed to the deal.

Immediately afterwards, Sheng Hai picked up the Soul Ash Transformation Box, examined it, and exclaimed, "Is this an assembly line product from the Demon Guild?"

Uesugi Tetsu was startled and asked casually, "Boss Sheng Hai, do you know the Demon Guide Association?"

"Of course I know." Sheng Hai twirled the Soul Ash Transformation Box between his fingers and placed it on the table. "They asked me to design this box."

"The raw materials for the transformation box are good, 200 soul ashes."

Uesugi Tetsu nodded: "Yes."

After seeing the Soul Ash Reserve return to "1394", Uesugi Tetsu asked, "Boss Katsumi, how much do you know about the Demon Guidance Society?"

This is equivalent to openly asking Sheng Hai for information related to the Demon Guidance Association.

However, Uesugi Che guessed that since Katsumi had just given him a life-saving doll, he would naturally not be stingy with some superficial information.

Sheng Hai said in a long tone: "Before that, could you tell me your name?"

Uesugi Che: "Che, just call me Che."

"Well, Master Che," Sheng Hai said slowly after pacing back and forth for a few steps, "the so-called Demon Guidance Association is just a group of small demons who spontaneously formed an organization. Although it has a long history, that's all it is."

"The apparent leader... no, should I say leadership group? It's a council of demons and gods who call themselves 'Lords.'"

Sheng Hai sighed as if he had just finished a dramatic performance, "I believe they have their own calculations when this wave comes."

Ghosts, gods of the wild...little demons?
The ghosts and gods commonly referred to in the ordinary world are equivalent to the four stars.

The God of Wilderness is naturally above the ghosts and gods. It is a being that truly builds shrines for worship and can absorb incense. It is an extremely terrifying demon that has reached the five-star level.

Uesugi Tetsu's expression was stiff beneath his mask - Ke Sheng Hai actually called these four-star and five-star beings insignificant little demons?

How many terrifying creatures has this shop owner witnessed?
But this also gave Uesugi Tetsu a clue in his heart, making him understand that the Demon Guide Association is not the top existence in the world, at least there is still a big gap between them and the likes of Aoandon or Shuten Douji.

Uesugi Tetsu nodded: "I understand. Thank you, Mr. Katsumi, for clearing up my confusion."

"No, it's my honor to be able to help Master Che with just a few words."

Sheng Hai bowed slightly towards Uesugi Tetsu who was walking out of the store and sang again: "Master Tetsu—then let us meet again after the great era begins!"

Katsumi's farewell slowly faded away, and after a burst of water pressure, Uesugi Tetsu returned to the real world.

……

As soon as he opened his eyes, without looking back, Uesugi Che felt a very strong gaze coming from behind him.

He lowered his eyes slightly and saw the two-foot-tall man sleeping soundly while hugging him like an octopus and eating his fingers.

Of course, he also saw the girl's long white legs under her skirt wrapped around his left leg like a buckle, and it was obvious who saw it.

Lady Nishaku is a ghost, probably not afraid of the cold, so she didn't cover herself with a blanket at all. Uesugi Tetsu, who was warmed all over by her embrace, naturally didn't realize that he still needed to cover himself with a blanket.

After staring silently for a while, Lilizi looked away and began to carefully spread the mat on the cold floor.

Uesugi Che's scalp felt numb. After thinking for a while, he took the initiative to say, "Lilizi, Master Nishaku is just treating me..."

"Uesugi-kun, you really haven't slept yet." Lilizi interrupted him, her tone flat, "I just felt that your internal energy was disturbed for a moment, and I thought it was an illusion."

"Also, you don't have to explain anything to me."

Lilizi glanced at him and said, "I'm not as narrow-minded as you think. Besides, I'd like to see how Yashaku-sama grew from a child to an adult."

"I have to say, I'm a little envious of you, Uesugi-kun, for having contracted such a shikigami who can enjoy a good life." Ririko emphasized the word "enjoy a good life".

No, yes, of course there is!
Having been with Ririkiko for so long, Uesugi Tetsu could tell she was being sarcastic just by listening to her tone.

If Erchi-sama had not been treating him, he would have probably chopped him down with his bamboo sword.

But with the excuse of treatment, no matter what else Ershaku-sama did, even if he touched her wantonly in front of Lilizi, she would just turn a blind eye.

Lilizi has always been able to clearly distinguish the importance of things.

Lilizi lay down and pulled the thin quilt over herself: "Go to sleep, Uesugi-kun. And remember to cover yourself with the quilt. Your metabolism will slow down after you fall asleep. Don't catch a cold now that the season is changing."

——She really did, I cried my heart out!

Even if he was being attacked directly, he could still say such heartwarming words in the cold night.

Compared to Lilizi, those heroines in romance anime novels who get jealous over the slightest thing are simply lame!
Uesugi Tetsu sighed in his heart, and the inexplicable guilt was ruthlessly cut off as soon as it was born - he didn't do anything shameful at all!
Shaking off trivial thoughts, Uesugi Che half-closed his eyes and opened the card drawing page of "Abandoned Shrine" after a long time.

He stared intently at the largest three-tailed fox in the shadow of the card pool.
"This is my third ten-draw draw. I've used up all the cards in the pool. Aren't you still going to release something?"

After frantically repeating the word "ship" in his mind for a full ten seconds, Uesugi Che used his mind to fiercely click "salvage ten times"!
Draw a card and start——!
Rumbling--

The vibrations came from the shrine, growing stronger as time went on.

Could this be a sign of shipment?
Uesugi Tetsu stared at the shaking shrine, watching the two three-tailed foxes continuously bringing in one piece of requiem incense ash after another from the depths of the shrine.

"Why are all the broken experience bottles coming out?"

Uesugi Che was amused. The first eight items were all soul-soothing incense ashes, but there were only differences of micro, small, and medium. There was no need to explain how unhappy he was.

For the last two items, even if there is no guaranteed bottom, please give me a blue one...

As if it heard Uesugi Tetsu's thoughts, the three-tailed fox, panting slightly from running, carried a ball of blue light that was emitting a faint glow to the entrance of the shrine.

It looks like a scroll.

"A rare quality scroll of performance?"

A scroll of good quality can add 100 points of proficiency, and a scroll of higher quality can add at least to points.

“This is quite good.”

Uesugi Tetsu raised his eyebrows, then held his breath, waiting for the three-tailed fox to run deep into the shrine and take out the final blow.

rumble--

The shrine continued to shake, but gradually, the shadow of the entire shrine faded away rapidly, and finally the card pool interface disappeared from Uesugi Che's eyes.

The shrine was abandoned and disappeared.

"Huh?" Uesugi Tetsu questioned in his mind, "No, there's a bug? I swallowed up another one?"

Wait, that's not right.

Only then did Uesugi Tetsu remember that there was a three-tailed fox that took out the magic scroll and stood on the pile of white and green light. It did not leave until the shrine disappeared.

Could it be that... Uesugi Che stared at it closely, and the translucent three-tailed fox seemed to feel his gaze.

It licked its two tails slowly, then raised its head, and after looking at Uesugi Che, a huge deep blue light burst out from its whole body!

Wow——!
A sound like a flash of light exploded beside Uesugi Che's ears, and the three-tailed fox above all the light balls slowly dissipated in the intense light.

Finally, it transformed into an exquisite card with the word "Bai Jin" engraved on the border and wrapped in flowing mercury lines.

On the card, three huge furry tails occupy a small half of the area.

The beauty in an elegant palace gown covers her face with a folding fan and turns her head slightly from the top of the card, revealing the upper half of her face that seems to have been carefully carved by nature. Her appearance is so beautiful that it is difficult to tell whether she is a man or a woman.

[You have obtained a new demon incarnation, the three-tailed fox! ]

A dark blue prompt appeared in front of Uesugi Che's eyes. He was stunned for a long time before he reacted to the unexpected situation.

Oh shit, it’s out!
Uesugi Che had originally prepared to throw another ten consecutive draws into the pool, but he didn't expect that the card pool would disappear directly after the ten consecutive draws.

What was even more unexpected was that this new demon incarnation was actually transformed from a three-tailed fox that guarded the gate.

Thirty Companies, do you know how I came here to build up these thirty companies?

Uesugi Tetsu reached out and carefully grasped the beautiful card, which was as thin as a cicada's wing, and carefully examined its information.

【Three-tailed Fox (Young Body)】

[Quality: Rare]

[Level: One and a half stars]

[Level Cap: Two and a Half Stars]

【Talent: Thousand Faces, Bewitching, Wandering, Angry Eyes】

【——A thousand faces and countless appearances, seemingly illusory but not real.】

Four talents! One more than Prajna's talent!
Although Prajna's "Ghosts and Gods (Weak)" talent is equivalent to three talents combined into one, considering its "rare" quality, it is definitely not bad for the three-tailed fox to have four talents.

What's more, none of these four talents are just for show!
[Thousand Faces: Consumes spiritual energy to shape appearance and height into any form.]

The first talent is heavyweight.

After possessing the talent of "Thousand Faces", Uesugi Tetsu no longer needs to worry about being exposed, nor does he need to buy a hooded coat to cover himself up.

Not to mention, this talent can transform anyone, young or old, male or female. As long as Uesugi Tetsu is given enough time, he can create countless new identities.

[Bewitching: Consumes spiritual energy and causes the target to fall into a state of confusion. The higher your Charm and Spiritual Arts attributes, the stronger the effect.]

The second talent is a strong control skill, and it seems pretty average just looking at the description.

However, the specific effect still needs to wait until actual combat to test what effect this "chaos" has and how much effect it can have.

Uesugi Che thought that he could go back to the mortal world later and test the effect of this talent on Chi.

After the appetizer, the next two talents are even more important!

The first is "wandering in mind".

[Spiritual Wandering: When transforming into a three-tailed fox, you can consume spiritual energy to actively extract the demonic incarnation and freely control it in the outside world. As time goes by, the spiritual energy consumption gradually increases.]

[Note: After the demon incarnation dies, it will take 48 hours before it can be used again.]

Combining this talent with the "Thousand Faces", Uesugi Tetsu is willing to call it the underlying logic of the incarnation of the three-tailed fox.

Because as long as the two are combined, Uesugi Tetsu can easily create friends out of nothing and get a lot of "friends" and "demon friends" to take the blame for Uesugi Tetsu.

Some things that Uesugi Tetsu himself cannot explain can also be solved through this "trance" talent, allowing the three-tailed fox and Uesugi Tetsu himself to appear in front of everyone.

Not to mention, even if he died in the real world, his demonic incarnation would be resurrected in just 48 hours, allowing him to explore various dangerous places for him, or do two things at once during battle...

However, the ability to do two things at once is still questionable.

Although there is no problem in theory, it is hard to say whether Uesugi Tetsu himself can fight the enemy while controlling the three-tailed fox incarnation.

If it were Ririk, there would be absolutely no problem, but this is not very realistic for Uesugi Tetsu at the moment.

It's okay for daily talking and walking, but in a life-and-death battle, even a hesitation of 0.1 second, or even a shorter time, is a huge flaw that may directly cause the battle situation to collapse and lead to death.

"Is the sword heart clear..."

As long as one can reach the state of clear sword heart, not to mention multitasking, even multitasking three, four, or five times will not be too much pressure.

However, achieving a clear swordsmanship is still too far away for Uesugi Che at the moment. It would be better for him to first find a way to achieve the unity of man and sword or get used to the talent of "wandering in the mind" to shorten the time of distraction as much as possible.

Finally, there is the explosive talent that can be called a trump card.

[Angry Eyes: While this skill is active, your physical strength doubles, your willpower doubles, your spiritual power doubles, and your charm is halved. This lasts for two hours. After this skill ends, all attributes remain constant at 24 for 1 hours.]

Apart from the fact that it is easy to be picked off by passing monsters after the duration, "Angry Eyes" is a perfect talent.

Pure numbers, pure power.

Satisfied, Uesugi Tetsu was very satisfied.

Compared to Prajna, whose talents are all about enhancing combat power, the three-tailed fox's talents are more inclined towards assistance and functionality, but the "angry eyes" make up for this well.

Although the three-tailed fox itself does not have many means of attack, Uesugi Tetsu still has a lot of equipment that has supported it from the past to the present.

The chief priest's robe, the folding fan for the blessing, the Komainu ringing a bell...

From now on, the lightning released by the folding fan is no longer used to make the enemy stiff for a moment at a critical moment, but can be used to directly kill the opponent with thunder.

I don’t know how much the Komainu summoned by ringing the bell has improved in strength, half a star, or even more outrageous one star?
"Also, I can finally practice the Spirit Control Technique."

Uesugi Tetsu looked at the spiritual attributes that had changed significantly and murmured in his heart.

【Uesugi Tetsu】

【Physique: 20】

[Will: 9]

【Charm: 9】

[Spiritual Arts: 1 → 7]

The originally pitiful "1" point of spiritual attribute suddenly increased by 6 points, allowing Uesugi Che to immediately sense the thin spiritual energy dissipating in the surrounding atmosphere.

He took two casual breaths and could feel the pitifully small amount of spiritual power in his body growing continuously.

This is the case with 7 points of spiritual attribute, what about 29 points?

Uesugi Che couldn't wait any longer, so he closed his eyes and returned to Ruzuki Station.

——The demon incarnation, the three-tailed fox!

——Wear the Prajna mask!

pat.

A pair of peach-textured high-heeled shoes stepped lightly on the platform of Ruyue Station. A snow-white robe dotted with cherry blossoms hung down, and a golden rattle hung on the red belt around the waist. Three snow-white fluffy tails emerged lightly from the gaps in the robe, swaying slightly in the air.

Uesugi Tetsu held the blessed folding fan in his hand and took a deep breath with his still strong body.

Then, like a whale swallowing, a small vortex of spiritual power instantly began to spin rapidly with him as the center.

Feeling the rapid growth of the dried-up spiritual energy in his body, Uesugi Tetsu smiled and looked at the gorgeous attribute panel in front of him, which could be said to be a complete form.

【Uesugi Tetsu (Three-tailed Fox Incarnation)】

[Physique: 20→31]

[Willpower: 9 → 11]

[Charm: 9→14]

[Spiritual Arts: 7 → 29]

The sum of the four attributes reached 85 points, which was 18 points more than the sum of the four attributes when he was incarnated as Prajna!
Of course, this is also due to the "Prajna Mask", a special equipment that can only be obtained after the quality of Laughing Prajna reaches epic.

Uesugi Che savored the wonderful feeling of spiritual power gradually filling his body and circulating together with internal energy, then shook the three tails behind him awkwardly.

The tail is a bit weird.

This is just like a normal person suddenly having three extra fingers. He can control them, but it feels weird and something feels wrong.

And this ridiculous 14 points of charm.

Uesugi Tetsu's own 9 points of charm make him wake up every day by his own handsomeness, so wouldn't these 14 points be...

He looked up curiously and caught a glimpse of his current appearance through the reflective glass of the convenience store.

Uesugi Che was slightly distracted for a moment.

Shit, I almost drooled over myself.

Uesugi Tetsu quickly raised his hand and gave himself the middle finger in the glass.

Now he could get closer to the glass and look at himself from top to bottom.

It turned out that not only were there three large white fox carrots shaking behind him, but even his hair and eyebrows were snow-white.

"My buddy actually turned into a white-haired fox demon..."

Uesugi Che sighed and pinched the face that was so charming that one would hardly realize it was a man's.

This slippery face is too easy to make mistakes.

This is not self-praise from Uesugi Tetsu, but he feels that if he had seen this face on the cover of a comic book in a pink or white software in his previous life, he would definitely click on it to take a closer look.

"No, this won't do!"

Uesugi Che took off the Prajna mask from his waist, put it on his face, looked at it again, and then looked away with satisfaction.

This is called majesty and elegance!
After staying on the platform and admiring himself for several rounds, Uesugi Tetsu reluctantly prepared to return to the real world to see what new card pool would be opened after obtaining the one-and-a-half-star three-tailed fox.

Uesugi Tetsu was about to return to the real world, but when he turned around and saw the empty station, he suddenly realized what was happening.

Why didn't the train come?
Where is Ye Chunren?
