What Am I Supposed to Do After Reincarnating as the Best Friend Who Dies at the End of a Japanese-Style Onmyoji Manga?

“Did the best friend character’s spiritual power… disappear?” I loved Japanese-style stories. The elegance and fear born from Japan’s unique fantasy. Youkai, Ayakashi, Mononoke… and Kaii, along with the myriad gods. I loved those mysterious, nostalgic, and frightening tales they wove together. From a young age, I was drawn to those kinds of things. I read them, got absorbed in them, and enjoyed them endlessly… I thought those days would continue. Even if I died, even if my soul vanished at the end, I wouldn’t forget them, if there was a next life, I’d enjoy them then too… that’s what I believed. So much so that if I were to be reincarnated, I thought a Japanese-style world would be nice… “But reincarnating as a character guaranteed to die is going too far, isn’t it!? Damn it!” This is the story of a man who is reincarnated as the protagonist’s best friend (guaranteed to die).
