Why are there only loser heroines around me?

It seems like all "live-filled" girls use social media like this: a bit vain, they love sharing all the classic and beautiful restaurants they've visited. It's like an Italian nobleman showing off his newly purchased limited-edition sports car, or a junior posting on QQ, bragging about his score with a self-contained, "How did you know I'm 3400 on the ladder?"

At this moment, Ukyo clicked on his own updates. There was only one post in it, one he had posted a year ago: a junior high school exam transcript he had found online...

He didn't seem to have anything he liked to show off, and there weren't many people waiting in front of his updates for comments and likes. He missed the Night Watchman Forum a little bit. Every time he used his own big account to join the forum, there would always be younger students who would support him exaggeratedly.

With this in mind, I clicked on the channel function of LINE and created a public channel named "Night Watchman" in Chinese. This function is similar to a large channel for multiple people to chat in real time, providing video conferencing and screen sharing functions.

He thought about setting up an academy of his own, but he had no idea how to do it yet.

After entering the channel name, Youjing began to edit the channel introduction, whose main purpose was "Night Watchman Bounty"——

Dear Night Watchman, if you discover something that might be a ghost or something supernatural, please provide the relevant evidence (video or picture) and the Night Watchman will come forward to resolve it.

The channel is set to a private invitation system. Professional channels should of course be used by professionals. He doesn't want anyone to be able to post rewards in it.

After doing all this, Youjing dragged several people from the Supernatural Society into the channel. They didn't seem to use the channel function often, so no one noticed them for the time being.

Ukyo planned to wait until they discovered it before explaining the purpose of this channel in detail. He switched the page back to everyone's updates.

[Xiaoju: I placed a lot of supernatural books on the bed and took photos.

Image: "Image", Location: "Images/1728479924-100416414-112214479.jpg"

Caption: "I'm so strong now (breathing through her nose)." She's not as self-conscious online as she is in real life, and seems to have quite a few friends online. Of the few people in the club, Xiaoju seems to be the only one who genuinely wants to help her, having been reading paranormal books. It's also possible that her exposure to the paranormal has sparked a sudden interest in the subject.

[Tsuki no Mu: A list of BL literature books], Ukyo commented "good quality" below, Tsuki no Mu replied with a ghost expression, and sent him a private message asking if his account had been stolen by someone else.

[Tamagi: I was severely injured by someone who's a great writer, so I decided to abandon the book I was working on and try to get into the top ten of the literary giants station with a new book during the summer vacation! The title is as follows: "After becoming the Lustful Demon King, will I become stronger after multiple rebirths?"] This title made Ukyo pull the phone away from his face and read it twice with squinting eyes.

Press and hold the standby button, then lock the screen.

Ukyo closed his eyes and rested.

The flight lasts four and a half hours, and he hopes that when he opens his eyes again, the plane will have landed normally.

Yanami next to him also put on a steam eye mask, put down the seat, and prepared to sleep.

But before falling asleep, Yanami suddenly asked, "Ukyo, do you want to use this armrest?"

She was referring to the armrest between the two-person seats.

"I'll give it to you." Youjing said.

Yanai chuckled and placed his hands on the armrest. He put on the steam eye mask and soon passed out.

Ukyo leaned his hand on the left armrest, pulled his cheek, and soon fell asleep.

He thought he could sleep like this all the way to Tokyo.

But things never go as he wishes.

When I opened my eyes again, the sweet voice of the flight attendant came from the loudspeaker -

"Dear passengers, due to the turbulence..."

Ukyo did feel the turbulence, but he was more concerned about a flight attendant who had just passed by him, clutching her throat, sticky blood oozing from between her fingers. Judging by the amount and location of the bleeding, her neck looked like it had been cut. The economy class passengers all ran to the back, and soon, the seat in front of Ukyo was empty.

He stood up to check the situation and happened to meet the eyes of a strange black cat on the floor.

If the ghosts he encountered before were difficult to identify due to their vague characteristics, then the characteristics of the black cat in front of him were too clear, so Ukyo could identify its origin at first sight.

Double tails, black hair, large and pointed ears, and double-sided serrated teeth!

This is clearly the monster recorded in "Japanese Mysterious Records", Nekomata.

The book describes that if a domestic cat's tail splits into two after it is over 10 years old, it means that it has cultivated into a demon. The more obvious the fork, the stronger the demonic power. The best cats are pure double-tailed cats, which are extremely ferocious and better at using their teeth than tigers. They often tear other demons in the mountains apart and eat them, hurting both demons and humans.

Ukyo saw a front-seat passenger slumped over in his chair, clutching his bleeding arm.

An internet celebrity named Xiao Hei, who ran over from the front cabin to take pictures, was holding his mobile phone behind the cat.

Ukyo stood face to face with Nekomata. All the passengers in the cabin retreated to the back, took down their suitcases to separate the two cabins, and observed the situation on the opposite side through the gap.

No one was willing to help Ukyo. Most of the time, people were just busy running away, so the chances of meeting a good person were slim. Yana, who had grabbed a knife from somewhere, stood on the chair with her legs apart, watching Nekomata warily.

"Ukyo, is this Nekomata?"

It seems that she has also read books related to the supernatural carefully, and she actually knows the name of this monster.

The people in the back were curiously observing Nekomata's situation, wondering why this monster that had killed its way from the first class cabin suddenly stopped.

Monsters, like wild beasts, instinctively seek good and avoid danger. It stopped because it sensed a different aura from Ukyo. The three demonic curses gathered behind him made the supreme cat retreat. It mocked the ignorance of the humans before it, unaware they were cursed by their own kind. Three distinct auras swirled around him, suggesting the three creatures he had killed came from three different places.

The cat didn't want to add another curse to his legacy with a "mutual destruction" mentality before being killed, so it decided to sit down, shake hands, and negotiate terms. It had just killed someone because it was resentful. It was originally concentrating on fighting a tiger in the mountains, and it was about to get its tiger meat breakfast, but suddenly, a masked clown drew a spell and teleported it to the plane. It didn't get to eat breakfast, so it's reasonable to feel resentful, right?

It thinks so, but the tough guy on the other side doesn't think so.

Without saying a word or discussing any conditions, he held a glowing brick and put it against his cat's head.

Volume 1: Chapter **Have you ever had a cat?

The cat has seen many demon-binding talismans, but the common point is that all the talismans are derived from Lord Qingming's Platycodon seal, which is essentially a five-pointed star. Generally speaking, the more powerful the Onmyoji is, the more complicated the five-pointed star talisman he compiles. To deal with a mountain monster like it, it is enough to make some slight derivatives of the five-pointed star Platycodon seal talisman.

However, the talisman on the glowing screen was densely covered with patterns it did not recognize. The [talisman head] was complicated, and the title of the god being invited was written as "Zhensha Jin Gang". There was a rope for binding immortals underneath the decree. The "Pillar of the Earth" and "Pillar of the Sky" were complete, and the matter being requested was "Subduing demons and destroying monsters". The talisman core was stamped with the word "Gang", and the writing style of the [talisman corner] was very complicated. It was not the seal of Lord Qingming.

Image: "Image", Location: "Images/1728480073-100416414-112214480.jpg"

When Japanese onmyoji exorcise and bind demons, they affix the "seal" of the deity they wish to summon. For example, if they're praying for money, the "fuku" symbol is the seal of Lord Ebisu. Most onmyojis capture demons to become their own shikigami, not to kill them. The most powerful shikigami master in Japanese history was Abe no Haruaki, which is why the seals used beneath onmyoji runes are often the "Seimei" seal.

But Youjing’s talisman is different. He copied it from the Internet in China, and the talisman is painted with the Laojun seal!

It is said on the Internet that if you don't know what the talisman paper is for, then you can use Laojun's seal. His seal is basically universal for all talismans, and Laojun is quite generous. He will not blame you if you draw the talisman incorrectly. If the talisman is beautifully drawn, Laojun will think you are teachable and generously give you more magic power.

The talismans drawn by Ukyo are very beautiful.

Laojun is still relatively familiar to Chinese people, and you can see Laojun statues everywhere, but how could a foreign spirit like Maoyou have ever seen the Great Pure Daode Tianzun? It only felt that when the talisman was shot at it, the golden light on it seemed to be able to blind its eyes. If it hit its head, its brains would be shaken apart! This is not an Yin-Yang master at all. This cold-faced killer wanted to kill it right away! Maoyou cried out that he was being used. How shameless was it to throw it on the plane to test the strength of this madman!

"Don't kill me! I...I am willing to become your Shikigami!"

The ferocious black cat that was baring its teeth in the last second suddenly knelt on its knees and turned into a "wealth-attracting" cat, crawling on the ground and saying that it was willing to surrender.

"Japanese Supernatural Records" records that cats also have a mischievous side. They like to disguise themselves as beautiful women and old women to deceive passers-by. They can sense the inner thoughts of humans and make various responses.

Ukyo did not answer. He would not let a murderous demon go because of such a simple trick, but this was the first time he had seen a "ghost" that could speak human language. The combat ability of this cat might not be as good as that of the Slant people and the drought demon, but perhaps he could get some clues about the revival of the supernatural from its mouth.

Ukyo glanced back at the few people watching from behind the "wall of luggage" and said to a flight attendant, "Bring me a knife."

........

...

The flight attendant didn't dare to disobey. The young man in front of her was obviously the savior of their flight. Moreover, Youjing showed her his ID, and there was a police emblem printed on the back of the ID.

Ukyo, wearing sandalwood Buddhist beads, lowered the table on the back of the economy class chair and extended his hand towards Yanami.

Yanai immediately understood and handed the knife to him.

Ukyo grasped the knife handle, then raised his hand and stabbed the knife into Nekomata's palm with a "swish", fixing it on the table. Seeing this scene, Yanami couldn't help but close one eye, a little afraid to watch.

Ukyo opened a new canvas on his phone and held it up in front of Nekomata.

He didn't know the binding spell that Onmyoji used to capture Shikigami, so Nekomata had to draw it himself.

"Since you know Abe Haruaki so well, it shouldn't be difficult to draw a talisman for him, right?"

The cat had no choice but to obey, retract its sharp claws, and use its paw pads to draw talismans on the screen. It might very well become the first demon in the history of demons to draw a talisman to capture itself.

It had only seen talismans drawn on rectangular talisman paper before, and this was its first attempt at drawing them on this kind of glowing shell. Once the talisman was completed, the monster would be absorbed into the talisman paper, and with the blessing of the monster's power, the talisman paper would become difficult to damage.

........

Just a few scribbled strokes -

The moment the demon-binding talisman was drawn on the screen, the cat, whose paws were touching the screen, suddenly stiffened and was sucked into the screen.

Image: "Seimei's Talisman", Location: "Images/1728480108-100416414-112214480.jpg"

The talisman drawn by the cat demon is ugly, but still useful.

The passengers in the rear cabin all breathed a sigh of relief and gradually returned from the front compartment. Ukyo had wanted to examine his phone, but he was soon surrounded by a chattering crowd. Some offered him snacks to thank him for saving their lives, while others curiously asked him how he had subdued the monsters... Ukyo felt the noise around him was exceptionally noisy, and he had no choice but to exercise his right and take out his "police officer's ID" -

"Stewardess, give me an upgrade."

........

...

After a while.

Ukyo looked around at the mess in the first class cabin.

The "Pikkyo Seal" that summoned the Nekomata was engraved under a bed sheet. Beside the bed were two men's cotton socks, an untied belt, jeans, a piece of women's underwear of about D cup, and a Guerlain women's bag... Ukyo observed everything in the cabin. He imagined a cat demon fighting a tiger in the mountains. Just when he was about to have breakfast, he was suddenly teleported to an unfamiliar environment. As soon as he landed, he saw a man and a woman mating.

Its first emotion was not anger, but astonishment and speechlessness, so there was no bloodstain in the room, and the first-class couple who were doing business successfully escaped.

The ensuing emotion was anger at being toyed with by humans, and it began to attack people indiscriminately, its claws striking randomly, not with the intent to kill, but simply to vent its anger. Ukyo walked through the front cabin. Most of the wounds on the people were random and not fatal. The most serious injury was that of the flight attendant whose throat was scratched. Her injury was treated promptly, but the wound was deep. She might need an artificial esophagus to assist in eating, and she might even be left disabled.

Ukyo waited for the flight attendant to clean up the place. The foreign couple said they didn't mind giving up their room to the hero who saved the plane.

Ukyo stayed away from the bed where they had fought and sat down in the chair by the window.

Yanami discovered that there were free snacks in the first class cabin, and she found Anpanman fruit candies and Mentaiko-flavored corn sticks.

Ukyo pulled out his phone and looked at the Nekomata crawling around on the screen like a "desktop pet".

Its claws scratched the inner frame of the screen, but Ukyo only had to slide the screen to the other side and back again, and the marks would disappear.

At the same time, the cat will stumble on the screen due to the "inertia" of sliding the screen. One grid of the screen is its range of movement, like a prison.

In other words, it's worse than prison.

There was no bed to sleep on or a place to go to the bathroom, and it couldn't access the square app icons behind it. Youjing didn't understand why this was happening, but through the screen, he could feel the loneliness and helplessness of this little creature trapped in such a small space. He understood this, but he couldn't empathize with it.

"If you're not hurting anyone, I don't mind figuring out how to make you more comfortable.

"Although your anger is justified, the result cannot be changed."

"Now it's my turn to ask questions and you answer them. My satisfaction will determine whether you will have the opportunity to live as a Shikigami in the future."

The cat didn't dare to resist. It had already seen the methods of this cold-faced young man, so now it could only answer obediently.

Yana was teasing the cat with a yellow corn strip above the screen. The cat wanted to stretch out its claws to grab it, but it was trapped in the screen. The man and the cat played back and forth for a long time. The cat realized belatedly that it had been fooled by this hateful human girl!

.....

Ukyo's first question was how long it had lived, and the cat said 103 years.

"Why have all sorts of fictional and bizarre creatures appeared around the world recently?"

"I don't know." The cat answered honestly. It has been living in Oshino Hakkai near Toyohashi City. It is a famous local spring group. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers. It has mountains and water. It is a "luxury residence" in the monster circle of Toyohashi City. Anyone who wants to settle down there must have enough strength!

Originally, these little demons in the secular world lived in peace with humans. Cats often tied their two tails into one and went to the hot spring pools near Oshino Hakkai to eat and drink with humans.

They are not like "fictional ghosts" that cannot be seen by mortal eyes. These local monsters can be seen even by ordinary people. Moreover, they are not like "fictional ghosts" that require specific magic tools or weapons to kill. Anything can cause harm to them.

However, all "monsters" have the ability to hide from humans. Whether humans can see them depends on whether they use their demonic power to make themselves invisible.

I see.....

Youjing received another piece of information——

This nationwide paranormal resurrection doesn't involve "local monsters" like the Nekomata. Instead, it's causing some "fictional creatures" that didn't exist to appear in reality, such as the Lansters. Even "half-real" monsters like the Hanba (a type of genie) have been affected by the resurrection and have emerged. Originally sealed in a coffin by Zhang Tianshi, the "paranormal resurrection" has allowed it to reappear. For an unknown period, Hanba has roamed the mortal world, gradually evolving into its legendary form.

If it devours enough "worldly people," it might grow to the 30 feet tall it describes in Yuewei Caotang Notes. By then, no one would be able to do anything to it unless Zhang Tianshi emerged from his coffin.

Ukyo couldn't help but look at Yanami standing beside him. As the target chosen by Hanba, she might have some extraordinary qualities. Perhaps eating one Yanami is equivalent to eating a hundred ordinary people. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left the "detective snacks" at hand that day and only wanted to eat Yanami.

But she herself doesn't think she is special... Yanami is using fruit candies to "seduce" Nekomata. Whenever it wants to stretch its claws out of the screen, Yanami will quickly pull her hand back and quickly stuff the Anpanman fruit candies into her mouth.

At the same time, she kept shaking the screen, causing the cat to keep bumping into the "rectangular" frame due to inertia.

Yanami searched for horror movies online and played country heavy metal for it with the volume turned up to the maximum; he made it learn elementary school math, and if it made a mistake in the calculation, it would be punished by "shaking the screen."

In the remaining half hour before the plane landed, Ukyo saw the suicidal look in Nekomata's eyes.

"Evil...demon."

"There is...a demon..."

.......

.....

It was not until they got off the plane that Yanami returned the phone.

She took a picture of the night view of Tokyo Airport for the camera, with Yanami taking up half of the front camera's field of view, and Ukyo holding the suitcase behind him in the distance.
