A nerd must fight powerful spirits and aliens all vying for the secret power of his “family jewel,” so who better to fight alongside him than his high school crush and a spirit granny?!
Momo Ayase and Okarun are on opposite sides of the paranormal spectrum regarding what they’ll believe in and what they won’t. Their quest to prove each other wrong leads them down a path of secret crushes and paranormal battles they’ll have to participate in to believe!
A gravely injured Okarun wakes up to an out-of-body experience!

Thankfully, Turbo Granny is able to teach Okarun a technique for returning to his body that will also help in the impending alien invasion. Elsewhere, Momo and the others are undergoing their own training, but when they return home on the predicted date of the invasion, they find it’s already begun!

powers. Before the two of them part ways, Wei Wuxian insists he's

On his way to attend a grand banquet, Wei Wuxian discovers his
invitation is a deadly ruse. Jin Zixun, cousin to the heir of the Jin
clan of Lanling, has prepared a huge ambush to claim Wei Wuxian's head.
Lives are lost in the tragedy that follows, and though Wei Wuxian
escapes alive, things swiftly spiral out of control. Three thousand

corpses bring hell to Nightless City!
