Man in Marvel: The Manifestation of the Gods

“She is so holy, her name is often mentioned in my ears, as if… Mom is everywhere.”

These words of deep emotion are so sad to hear.

Xia Mi couldn’t help but reach out and hold Roddy’s hand.

With Rody as her support, she felt much more at ease.

The feelings of being a dragon are different from those of being a human. She and her brother have no parents and have never experienced the love of a child.

But fortunately she still has her brother.

She is now Xia Mi, a pure person, not the Dragon King of Jörmungandr, and the same goes for Rody.

So she could understand the feelings that Uesugi Yue expressed.

Xia Mi often feels fortunate that wherever her brother is, that is her home.

But soon, when talking about why he came to Neon, the longing and hope in Uesugi Yue’s eyes disappeared. They became dim and became… angry!

He gripped the bottle and took another sip.

Even though I know that alcohol can no longer numb me, when I think of the memories, it’s like uncovering a scar that has never healed.

Exposed bloodily.

Xia Mi quickly understood why Uesugi Yue had lost control of his emotions just now.

Uesugi Kotsu ascended the throne and became the emperor of the Neon underground, becoming the second shining sun in the sky.

He ascended the throne during World War II.

As a hidden symbol of neon, the Emperor of Film has a status comparable to that of the Emperor.

Uesugi Yue naturally became a symbol of those war criminals. He was a god, and everyone wanted to receive God’s blessing.

But in fact it is.

“I’m just a fool who’s been kept in the dark, a mascot, a bastard puppet controlled by the family.”

Talking about his experience as an emperor, Uesugi Yue’s expression became cold and he said softly: “I thought I was just traveling in Neon for a few years, but in fact I was trapped in this world… This is not my hometown, but a prison for me.”

“I don’t dare go back to France, let alone go to China…”

“I dread seeing the places where my mother once stayed again.”

Uesugi Yue suffered inner torment for more than sixty years.

“When I closed my eyes, I seemed to see a sea of ​​blood and corpses, and among them was my mother. She stared at me… her eyes were so strange. I wanted to get closer, but she… she was stopping me from going over.”

“Stop me, a war criminal, and stop me, a demon, from getting to her.”

Uesugi Yue’s voice sounded like the howling of a wounded beast.

How ridiculous and how sad.

Uesugi Yue became the shadow queen of Japan, and Japan launched a war.

As for Uesugi Yue, he believed the slander. His ministers told him that this war was the right thing to do and that Japan would use swords and blood to open up a new home and strive for prosperity for future generations.

So he met those evil bastards, those war criminals, those executioners, while he was just a poor fellow sitting in the deep palace who had never seen war.

But what he didn’t know was that his beloved mother returned to China before the war started and became a nun in the Catholic Church in Nanjing.

After the war, Uesugi Yue went through the evidence and the factual documents about the atrocities and massacres committed by the Japanese army, which he had never been told about.

There was one document that sent him into complete hell.

The document states that the Neon army massacred 300,000 innocent civilians.

In the city, the priests and nuns who opened churches had tried their best to shelter those poor people.

An old lady from France made those poor women dress up in nun’s clothes and wanted to send them to the riverside to leave, but they were intercepted by the Neon army.

One of them, a major named Fujiwara Masaru, discovered that they were fake nuns.

So the brutal hell came into reality, and those soldiers turned into evil and terrifying devils in hell.

Hell is empty, and the devil is on earth!

“All the women were raped, they were stripped naked and used as tools for torture, and those who resisted were cut open alive from top to bottom with bayonets, except for the real old woman who was not violated.”

“But her faith made it impossible for her to accept this bloody and cruel scene of hell on earth…so…”

Uesugi Yue’s voice became colder and deeper, like an active volcano that was suppressing the raging flames that were about to erupt.

“So she shot herself.”

“The Bible says that people who commit suicide will never go to heaven, but she would rather go to hell than stay in this world polluted by the deepest evil!”

“Before she died, she cursed that God would come and punish all the sinners with lightning and fire!”

“The old lady who committed suicide was named Charlotte Chen. She… was my mother!”

Obviously no one released any majesty.

But the atmosphere was extremely silent and cold, until it reached the bottom.

Xia Mi held Roddy’s hand so tightly that it turned blue.

Roddy lowered his eyelids, drank the sake in the glass, picked up a piece of potato chip and put it into his mouth with a snap.

The chewing sound seemed a bit harsh.

Although people feel very sympathetic towards Uesugi Koshi’s experience, he is indeed the one who deserves the least sympathy, because there are countless people whose situations are much more miserable than his.

What made him repent was not the crimes committed by the Neon Army, but his mother. But at least his mother was not insulted and tortured.

But she still has a human heart and cannot stand by and watch the devil wreak havoc.

“She’s cursing you, isn’t she.”

Uesugi Yue nodded, expressionless. From his silent eyes, it could be seen that he died the day he learned the truth.

“I overturned the shrine’s ancestral hall, burned down the entire Sheqi Eight Clan’s shrine, and killed my wives, but I couldn’t find those sinners. In the end, I realized that my mother was cursing me, a sinner worthy of being nailed to the cross until the end of the world.”

“But now you still have room for redemption.”

Roddy stood up from the chair. The rain outside had stopped. He looked down at Uesugi Yue, who seemed to have no desires or ambitions and was just an old man about to die.

“You have been unhappy all your life, but now you still have a chance to make your descendants happy.”

“Rather than letting tragedy happen again.”

Chapter 262: Just went out and found a Eri

neon

Genji Heavy Industries Building in Tokyo.

Even at eleven o’clock in the evening, the neon lights on the tall buildings still did not disappear.

In order to save commuting time, many white-collar workers choose to work overtime until the early morning, go to the gym to sweat, and then sleep on the floor when they return to the company.

Of course, some white-collar workers who are too proud to save face may choose to take a break in a 24-hour convenience store, library or ramen restaurant.

The next day, I went to work full of energy, holding a glass of iced American coffee.

Greet colleagues cordially: “Oh, good morning~”

They have long been accustomed to this kind of life where work takes up everything.

I keep working hard just to settle down in Tokyo, where every inch of land is valuable, so I keep gritting my teeth and persevering.

I look forward to buying a house here one day, getting married and having children.

Use your own efforts to change the seemingly untouchable fate.

But it’s different from those low-level workers.

As the patriarch who led the Eight Snake Families to revival and the top billionaire with a net worth of trillions, the reason why Tachibana Masamune has not rested yet is very simple.

Because the head of the Uesugi family, the jewel in the crown of the Snake Eight Clan, Uesugi Erii, ran away from home again this afternoon.

This was her thirteenth time running away, but unlike before when she would just stop at the traffic light downstairs, staring blankly and not moving forward.

She ran away from home and hasn’t returned yet.

Even so.

This incident should not have alarmed Tachibana Masamune.

He was loved and respected by all of the Eight Clans of Sheqi, so normally things like this wouldn’t be brought up to bother him.

But when the people of the Eight Sheqi Families discovered that their little princess was hanging out with a young man and woman.

The younger man among the young couple was Rody, the executive commissioner leading the team from the Cassel headquarters.

The situation becomes a little complicated.

As a newcomer who had just taken office, he had made the Executive Bureau the sharpest blade of the Snake Eight Families and was regarded as the next successor to the patriarch.

At this time, he was wearing a black executive bureau windbreaker and standing solemnly at the door of the office.

Looking at the back of Tachibana Masamune, who led the Snake Eight Families from decline to prosperity and almost broke free from the control of Kassel Academy, standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

Speak softly.

“Dad, do you want me to bring Eri back by force?”

The reason why Yuan Zhisheng has not taken any action yet.

It was the subordinates who reported that Miss Uesugi seemed to be having a lot of fun.

But this has already set a record for the longest time Eri has been away from home.

This made Gen Chisei feel a little uneasy, and Eiry was inexplicably hanging out with the two specialists from Kassel Academy.

Yuan Zhisheng suspected there was some conspiracy.
