Chapter 1: Funeral

~8 min read 1,452 words

Inside a church in Japan, mournful music slowly rose.

Jiang Xia stood in the crowd wearing a black suit; everyone here was immersed in the pain of losing loved ones, the scene solemn.

But Jiang Xia, standing in the crowd, secretly left the church.

Outside the church.

"How did I suddenly appear here?"

Jiang Xia looked with shock at the reflection appearing on the multicolored window.

Although it wasn't a real mirror, it was enough for him to see his face clearly.

Broken sounds rose and fell.

But if I don't go, I will definitely be fired.

This made Jiang Xia, who reads horror novels, feel a little uneasy in his heart.

The originally quiet church instantly became a place of slaughter.

A miserable scream came from Mu Zi Xiao Hua's mouth; her body trembled violently, wailing in pain.

The painful scream suddenly rose from Mu Zi Xiao Hua's mouth; seeing this, the people in the hall instantly fell into chaos.

The coffee shop owner knew the 'dead person' lying in the coffin, but having no time, he had Jiang Xia stand in for him; unexpectedly, before the funeral even began, the core inside had been swapped.

The coffee shop owner knows this 'dead person' lying in the coffin, but he himself has no time to go, so only Jiang Xia does it for him; however, he never expected that before the funeral even began, the inside of the coffin had already been swapped.

That person didn't even have time to say anything before his skull was pierced straight through by the spider leg behind Spider Man.

The news of being fired still suppressed Jiang Xia's fear; now he needs this job.

"Good thing I didn't follow the crowd, but found a place to hide on my own." Jiang Xia swallowed nervously, trembling.

The memory originally forgotten in his mind suddenly became clear when he saw the Tooth Blood Vampire feeding.

Jiang Xia is an ordinary horror novel enthusiast; for some bizarre thriller plots he can't help but make associations.

As Jiang Xia entered the church, he carefully surveyed his surroundings, keeping his body in the middle-rear of the group.

Although there's nothing to fear about a funeral, directly crossing over to the funeral scene is something to talk about.

The original owner became an orphan because of the Tooth Blood Vampire; as a child he personally witnessed his parents turn into transparent glass, which then shattered.

Her head was rapidly turning transparent, with some things leaving her body,

This body is called Chun Jiang Xia Chuan, just a twenty-something youth.

He also fainted from the overwhelming stimulation, and finally, under the body's self-protection, forgot this experience.

White petals encircled the young man lying in the coffin.

Fortunately, a few unlucky souls managed to buy time, allowing most people to leave the church.

Having grown up in an orphanage, he now works at a coffee shop to make a living; today he came to attend a stranger's funeral.

Spider Man looked at the already chaotic church and gave an evil smile.

"As expected, something happened; I guessed right."

Jiang Xia lost consciousness.

His long mouthparts turned into claws that surrounded him, making him look like a huge humanoid insect.

His long mouthparts turned into claws that surrounded him, making him look exactly like a huge humanoid insect.

Watching the crowd fleeing as Spider Man pursued them,

Jiang Xia sucked in a breath of cold air; he was not among the panicked crowd fleeing here, but hid in a dead corner behind the church outside.

Jiang Xia sucked in a breath of cold air; he was not among the panicked crowd fleeing here, but hid in a blind spot behind the church outside.

This is Japan in 1986; if we calculate by age, Jiang Xia wouldn't even have been born yet.

"Forget it, I'll still go; otherwise the boss will fire me. Anyway, it's just an ordinary person's funeral, so it shouldn't involve something absurd like the dead coming back to life."

Forget it, I'll still go attend; otherwise the boss will fire me. Anyway, it's just an ordinary person's funeral—there shouldn't be something absurd like a corpse coming back to life.

Spider Man swung his hand again; this time several fangs shot straight at the crowd, and a few guests in black suits instantly turned transparent.

Jiang Xia, standing in the middle-rear of the group, had his body tense, legs ready to run.

The vicious fangs directly stabbed into Mu Zi Xiao Hua's body.

The man originally lying on the bed suddenly had some multicolored patterns appear on his face.

In the blink of an eye, the man vanished, replaced by a monster whose entire body was covered in multicolored skin with spikes protruding everywhere.

In the blink of an eye, the man vanished, replaced by a monster whose whole body was covered in the mottled skin of an elder, with spikes jutting out from various parts of its body.

Mu Zi Xiao Hua gasped, her body involuntarily stepping back several paces, incredulously staring at the man who had risen before her.

He had transmigrated, into the body of someone whose name and appearance were completely different.

The sound of shattering glass fragments surfaced again from his memory; the two kindly man and woman in his memory instantly turned into fragments, just like today.

"I understand; rest assured, I will avenge you."

Mu Zi Xiao Hua, stretching out her hands, wanted to give him the flower she held as a sign of mourning.

Only now did he realize what had actually happened.

The man with spider legs, still unsatisfied, licked his lips and casually tossed the now-transparent Mu Zi Xiao Hua aside.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Xia suddenly opened his eyes.

A transparent brightness instantly filled her body, stopping when her body could absorb no more.

Many storylines begin with a funeral.

Jiang Xia suddenly turned his head to look behind him, but he saw only the flowers and grass outside the church, with no one else.

But suddenly, a flash of surprise crossed Mu Zi Xiao Hua's face.

When Jiang Xia entered, he happened to catch a young, beautiful lady offering flowers.

When Jiang Xia entered, he just happened to encounter a young, beautiful lady offering flowers.

Jiang Xia lightly covered his heart with his hand, letting that pain spread through his chest.

The funeral, the burial ground—all were the sites of the accident.

Only after he cautiously reached out and touched it did he relax and exhale a long breath.

"Are we going to die again?"

Forced by life.

"Ahhhhh!!!!"

"This, this is the original owner's memory."

Seeing the thick legs exert gentle force, the person seemed to instantly leap into the air, eight Spider Legs extending from his back, and using the power of the Spider Legs he quickly crawled across the church roof.

A colorful aura rose from Spider Man, a halo of light enveloping his body.

If any special event occurs, he will turn and run without hesitation.

The massive crowd was like a living target, and Spider Man constantly fed within the crowd.

Just like a humanoid spider, each exertion of the Spider Legs swiftly brought him closer to the fleeing crowd.

Seeing the man who had stood up, a sudden 'rip' sounded from his back, and eight Spider Legs instantly shot out, piercing straight into Mu Zi Xiao Hua's body.

"Ah—"

Immediately afterward, his previously closed eyes slowly opened, revealing a pair of mixed‑color eyes that stared fixedly at her.

Two transparent, tooth‑like objects suddenly appeared in the air, like a spider opening its maw, ready to bite down at any moment.

Screams rose and fell one after another.

This was his retreat route.

A sudden chill rose in his heart, and the plot of the horror novel he had read before instantly sprang to mind.

Suddenly, Jiang Xia felt his head swim, and his whole body went limp and collapsed to the ground.

But at that very moment, a painful memory suddenly surfaced in Jiang Xia's mind.

Mu Zi Xiao Hua's body shook violently, but the Spider Legs held her body fast.

Familiar teeth once again appeared in the air.

"This… this is a Tooth Blood Vampire!" Jiang Xia's face filled with shock as he watched the Spider Fang Vampire leap down, frenziedly chasing the fleeing crowd.

Everyone who had come to attend the funeral ran for their lives outward; due to the large numbers, stampedes kept occurring, but now no one bothered to help those who had already fallen.

But now Jiang Xia remembered.

"I have to do something." Jiang Xia whispered from the shadows behind him.
