While the Grim Reaper was still around, the people of Tokyo feared his power and kept quiet, choosing to accept it in humiliation.
Now that Death is gone, if the Cursed Children can regain their human rights, what does all the hatred they've accumulated over the years matter?
We must protest.
March, march immediately.
Led by the surviving Pureblood Society executives, a parade sweeping across Tokyo is about to begin.
Of course, some people, in order to vent their anger, formed groups and went to the outer areas with colored weapons, attempting to take revenge on the cursed children and vent their hatred.
And then... that was it.
Among the newly appointed six-person squad, Tina couldn't bear to kill.
But Rita and Louise were used to this and crushed all the troublemakers.
The soul lamps, hanging high in the sky and radiating light, shone even brighter because of their actions.
......
Inside the office of the Tendo Civilian Security Company, Tendo Kisara's expression turned strange upon hearing the news.
Yalin is dead. Is today April Fool's Day?
The power of this cursed child was only partially revealed at IISO, and cannot be estimated using common sense.
She didn't think anyone could kill Yalin.
Just like how Tendo Kisara could never find an opportunity to assassinate Tendo Kikuno.
This old man's behavior lately has been really strange; he seems like a completely different person.
Instead of harboring the same hatred for the cursed son, they are actively promoting the implementation of the new law.
This can only be explained by brainwashing.
Coupled with the seemingly reformed attitude of the other high-ranking members, Tendoki became even more suspicious that Yalin had placed some kind of special restriction on them.
So here's the question: if that's really the case, she'll still need to get past Yalin if she wants to kill Tendo Kikuno.
For Yalin, Tian Tong Ju Zhi is naturally of great value to him, which is why she has survived until now. It is impossible for her to be killed easily, which would cause a blunder in the plan.
Perhaps this is why she has never succeeded?
Kisara Tendo remained skeptical about this.
If that's the case, she needs to find Yalin herself and make a deal with him.
Volume 1: Chapter 171: Cleanup (4k)
Outer area, open-air campsite.
Yalin watched as news of his death continued to spread, causing a great uproar throughout the city.
People who had been shrouded in shadows seemed to regain their courage at this moment, and members of the anti-cursed children continued to gather into groups, finally having a chance to vent their long-suppressed resentment.
The situation is irreversibly spiraling in the worst possible direction.
Yalin gave this a meaningful smile. It's good that they're gathered together. Only such angry and hateful souls have the value to burn.
This hope at this moment will undoubtedly lead them to fall into an even crueler abyss later.
Outside the camp, countless cursed children were arriving one after another with their belongings.
Before Yalin, a silver-haired, red-eyed girl was singing with a unique and beautiful soprano voice, her elegant aura spreading in all directions.
After the hymn was finished, enthusiastic applause erupted from the surroundings. Many of the cursed children were captivated by the song and applauded for her.
"Brother Yalin, what do you think of my sister's singing?"
Beside Yalin, a girl who resembled the young girl but was even younger asked a playful question.
"Very good, she has the potential to become a singer in the future."
Yalin's response made the girl look at the young woman happily.
"Sister, Brother Yalin really likes your voice."
The silver-haired girl was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then smiled and raised her face.
"Since Yalin likes it, I will work hard on it from now on."
Yalin gently pinched the girl's cheek, making her purr like a cat.
He met the two sisters on the overpass. The older sister was blindfolded and begging, trying to get alms from kind people.
However, it is clear that no passerby will show sympathy for the cursed son.
Instead of food or money, the bowl was filled with pull tabs from soda cans, stones, and undisguised laughter.
That would have been bad enough, but some people even tried to harm the girl with a dagger for their own amusement.
Seeing this, Yalin resolved the problem and then learned from the conversation that the girl's eyes had been filled with lead because her mother disliked red pupils.
Faced with this girl who had both people-pleasing and self-destructive tendencies, Yalin lifted her white cloth and healed her eyes.
She then found her sister and brought her to the camp.
These cursed children, the younger ones, generally call him elder brother, while those of the same age call him by his name.
In fact, he was the guardian of the cursed child, so it's not surprising that he was addressed that way.
"Your hymn is good; let it accompany my next action."
Yalin spoke to the silver-haired girl, who immediately agreed.
The cursed children had complete trust and affection for this brother who changed their lives.
Let alone singing, if anyone tries to harm him, even the cursed children who are used to being submissive will fight to the death.
He naturally appreciated the sentiment, but there was no need for the girls to have their hands stained with blood.
These self-destructive scumbags, their death countdown has begun.
Led by the remaining high-ranking members of the Pureblood Society, countless people gathered together, holding banners high, and marched in a mighty procession toward the Holy Residence in the First District.
They attempted to force the Holy Emperor to cancel the new laws and even remove her from power.
The frenzied atmosphere permeated the entire Tokyo area, intimidating even normal people.
In fact, not only Shengju, but also police officers living in the city have been affected to some extent.
After the scattered cursed children were brought back by Yarin, and they could find no one to take revenge on, they set their sights on the police.
There have been numerous instances of troublemakers verbally abusing the police, storming the IISO building, and even attempting to harm the initiators.
However, the promoters who survived Yalin's clutches were naturally not so weak. They remained steadfast in their stance and did not allow their partners to be greatly affected.
This exacerbated the conflict between the police and the protesters, making the situation even more chaotic.
As Yalin watched the protests grow larger and larger over time, with occasional riots breaking out, a cruel smile appeared on his face.
......
District 1, Holy Residence.
The Holy Emperor gazed at the dense crowd in the square and fell silent.
The leader in charge was the vice president of the Pure Blood Society, who is said to have the support of the President of Osaka and was also the initiator of this march.
At this moment, he is stirring up public opinion, strongly condemning the brutal killing of lives by the Grim Reaper in the recent past.
They then expanded their ranks, using all sorts of offensive language to denigrate the cursed children, and the content became increasingly extreme, in order to deepen normal people's fear and apprehension towards them.
In addition, it subtly directs the anger towards the Holy Emperor, who stands on the side of the Cursed Son, implying a desire to oust her from power.
"Eliminate all the cursed children in the Tokyo area, wipe these monsters from our homeland, and let the world belong to humanity!"
At the end of his speech, the vice president clenched his fist and shouted out this slogan with great momentum.
A thunderous cheer erupted, and the crowd following him grew increasingly furious and agitated, echoing him as if they had lost their ability to think for themselves.
Or rather, this is exactly what they wanted.
If it weren't for the Self-Defense Forces and all the police officers holding riot shields in front of them, the Holy City would probably have been destroyed by the out-of-control crowd.
The more they did this, the less they received a response from the Holy Abode, and the more disappointed and hateful they became when they looked at the Holy Emperor.
This made the Holy Emperor purse his lips, his eyes growing increasingly sorrowful and gloomy.
This is not because of the hostility or malice of the protesters.
As a leader, she had long anticipated the pressure she would face.
Her heartache at that moment was not for herself, but for the people in the protest.
Don't they know that the reason they've been able to live peacefully all these years is because the cursed son is fighting desperately on the front lines?
In this situation, instead of being grateful, they take it for granted that they should be eliminated.
They lost their former rationality and became ferocious.
Such a mentality is beyond the capabilities of normal human beings.
How can she save these people who are beyond help?
"Disappointed?" (The question is repeated, seemingly unrelated.)
Yalin's voice rang in the Holy Emperor's ears.
"I just feel sorry for them."
The Holy Emperor's eyes were filled with bewilderment and sorrow.
The thought of what these people will suffer next, yet feeling powerless to do anything about it, and even being forced to spread the news and act as an accomplice, is unbearable.
Now she could only watch helplessly as they were manipulated by the tide of hatred and brought about their own destruction, and she felt that she was no longer worthy to be the leader of Tokyo.
"Then close your eyes. What's about to happen is definitely not what you want to see."
Yalin offered a rare word of comfort.
The other party was a dutiful and competent tool, and had some merit.
Afterwards, he watched indifferently as the parade grew increasingly large.
