From the tycoon's helmsman to the servant, they all went to the underworld.

The blood that flowed out even stained the white manor dark red.

The stubborn young man's body was unrecognizable; it had been completely torn into pieces.

This incident occurred.

The entire city of Tokyo was instantly thrown into turmoil.

Even if that conglomerate is only ranked at the bottom.

But the fact that not a single person survived overnight still shocked them.

The common people thought it was some kind of terrorist attack or business feud.

But the top tycoons and those in power who had already vaguely guessed or knew that this world had an unimaginable dark side were filled with horror.

They learned the truth.

It is a "new human" who wields power and kills an important figure in an entire conglomerate in order to seek revenge.

These powerful people couldn't sit still any longer.

In their eyes, it was just a matter of killing a lowly commoner.

Even if she is the sister of a "new human," she is still a commoner.

If they die, they die. What's the value of a commoner's life?

The lives of the lowly are worthless, but their lives are valuable.

A mere "new human" with a little power was able to wipe out the armed forces of an entire manor, leaving no survivors.

How does this not shock them.

They even felt like they were sitting on pins and needles.

Of course, very few chaebols can become so powerful that they even influence the economic lifeline of a country without having taken a few lives.

What if one of them offends someone connected to the "New Humans"?

Does that mean their deaths are imminent?

It's like a gunman standing in the shadows, staring at you.

But you are just an ordinary person standing in the open.

What good is it to be rich or powerful?

It's just a matter of dressing up more elaborately and having more people.

Under the cold bullet, everyone is treated equally.

This was like a Damocles sword hanging over one's head.

How could these powerful people not be alarmed?

What is the best way to calm down panic?

Very simple.

That is to let the so-called "new humans" die.

As long as someone is human, they will always be afraid of bullets.

Anyone whose heart or head is blasted will die.

Therefore, the major conglomerates also joined forces to pressure the upper echelons to find and kill the so-called "new humans".

As for why the conglomerates don't seek it out themselves...

Ah.

The chaebols also know that some of the upper echelons are hiding something.

It is even highly likely that they are secretly cultivating a "new human" guard team.

There is one on the upper level.

But they didn't.

This has certainly caused some controversy among these chaebols.

They're all wolves in sheep's clothing, what are they pretending for?

So you like to keep things to yourself, don't you?

Then everyone will lay their cards on the table, and nobody can play anymore.

If this kind of thing hadn't happened to the middle-aged man yet.

The chaebols wouldn't have ended up like this, with their relationship seemingly on the verge of collapse.

But now that their own lives are in danger, who cares whether you're from the upper or lower class?

You have a lot of power, but we have a lot of power too.

Why should we be the only ones testing the waters, while you stand idly by?

If we don't drag you down with us, you'll just want to stay a spectator forever.

They even want to reap the benefits without lifting a finger, right?

With a tentative mindset and the mentality that if I'm not doing well, neither should you.

The chaebols also joined forces to put pressure on the upper echelons.

They looked like they were determined to get you to confess something.

Even if the higher-ups are angry, there's nothing they can do.

It's one thing if it's just a conglomerate.

It can be solved very easily.

But this time, more than a dozen conglomerates have joined forces.

Even top conglomerates like the Shinomiya (AHDG) and Daikoku, which control the nation's economic lifeline, are showing a tendency to get involved.

Now, the higher-ups realize that they need to give something in return, or rather, give something to satisfy these wolves.

There was no way to deny it.

Despite their anger, the upper echelons had no choice but to reveal most of their "foundation."

It was a five-person team of Onmyoji dressed in hunting robes and wearing tall eboshi hats.

They could also be described as a "new human" team.

There was even a special combat unit of twelve men, dressed in special black uniforms, exuding a cold and austere atmosphere.

In order to convince those tycoons, the higher-ups even had the Onmyoji demonstrate their skills.

The Onmyoji was clearly obedient to his orders.

A few pale blue specks of light immediately appeared on his body.

It also demonstrated abilities such as blue strings appearing out of thin air from the palm of the hand.

Those tycoons who saw this were taken aback.

really.

You, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, have secretly cultivated a team of Onmyoji.

There is also a special operations unit whose capabilities are unknown.

If they hadn't put pressure on you today and pressed you for answers, you might not have said it, right?

What are your intentions in secretly training this team?

It's important to understand that these conglomerates have many cooperative relationships with the upper echelons of society.

But ultimately, they didn't reach the point of sharing the same pants.

The power of the chaebols and their influence on the national economy are too great.

These upper-class people have to be mindful of the tycoons' attitudes if they want to get some money to do anything.

This is like planting a thorn in their hearts.

I won't die, but I'm in excruciating pain.

Moreover, the eerie atmosphere is gradually resurfacing.

In order to intimidate those tycoons and to protect themselves.

The upper echelons specifically selected some of their own loyal followers and shrine personnel whom they themselves funded and trained.

They secretly collected a large number of Yin-Yang manuals and ancient cultivation formulas that had been passed down from the Heian and Nara periods when Onmyoji were prevalent.

They also provided many rare and precious medicinal herbs for their first batch of experimental personnel to consume.

The upper class naturally wanted to obtain these magical powers.

But they're not stupid; they need to experiment before doing anything.

Those die-hard fans and shrine staff were the first batch of "guinea pigs".

Success is best.

In this way, they have one or more paths to becoming "new humans".

It's okay to fail.

What we have no shortage of are "guinea pigs".

The only pity is those rare and precious natural treasures.

Even if it has been kept from the past, very little has been used and there is not much stock left.

This is what keeps them alive; every little bit used is a tiny bit less.

Naturally, I felt incredibly heartbroken.

If it weren't for the fear of making too big a move and attracting the attention of those chaebols...

They even wanted to capture some civilians for experiments.

It's worth noting that every year, quite a few people mysteriously disappear or commit suicide while cherry blossoms are in bloom.

Adding dozens or hundreds more wouldn't have much of an impact.

And after nearly ten years of research and experimentation.

Batch after batch of guinea pigs were used.

After using almost half of the rare and precious natural materials.

The first batch of "new humans".

Or rather, the seven-person team they called Onmyoji was also trained.

The principal didn't know what kind of power those Onmyoji possessed.

The principal hadn't actually observed it either.

Those Onmyoji usually operate in Tokyo, and their numbers are extremely small.

The principal hasn't been to Tokyo for quite some time.

Even when important figures invited him, the principal still politely declined.

As I've gotten older, I've seen too much darkness.

The principal now only wants to stay in his own little corner of the world and watch his students grow up healthily.

They can then enjoy their later years in comfort.

Although he didn't know, the principal guessed it was probably psionic.

It is not easy for humans to master the power of evil spirits, such as yin energy and negative emotions.

In any case, as far as the principal knows, only a few people have this kind of power.

Furthermore, Jiang Yuan, this "miracle," possesses an even greater negative power than a Level One Mystery.
