A Clockwork Orange Dream

The one who expels and curses evil spirits is known as a Forbidden Master...
Cen Dongsheng was reborn. His soul came from the future in eight years, an era where ghosts and malevolent gods roamed, and individuals known as 'prohibition master' ruled over modern society. Now, however, the world was still on the cusp of a night filled with great upheaval and rising dark undercurrents.
But he was a cautious and prudent fellow, aware of his own mediocrity. The first thing he thought of after being reborn was to find a powerful patron, and he pursued this endeavor thoroughly and successfully.
Except for one issue.
His powerful patrons all seemed to be out of their minds, as they... would fight among themselves.
'Stop fighting! If you've got to fight, take it outside, okay? Don't tear down the house!'
'Forget it, just come back... Destroying the house is still better than destroying the world...'

The King of Curses

　　"Actually, I never encountered any 'ghosts,' just heard from those I rescued before... One of them said he met someone while climbing, was deceived by that person, and strayed off the path, almost dying in the wilderness."


　　Cen Dongsheng had seen this case in the records.


　　"Later, we followed his account and searched around the area several times but couldn't find the swindler he talked about. We also found the tent and campsite he stayed in before, and it seemed like he was the only one who had ever stayed there."


　　"But seeing how convinced he was, the doctor said it was likely a hallucination from being alone for too long. According to him, although he had never actually seen the person, it felt like an old acquaintance that suddenly became a friend, so he completely trusted them; but upon careful recollection, everything about that person was very vague."


　　"...I see. When did this happen?"


　　"Let me think, about two or three years ago?"
