He's a crossover character in anime/manga, and basically just very despicable.

Her hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes were all snow-white—not even the pure white of rice paper, but the kind of pure white that would appear icy blue in the dark.

An elderly woman with white hair and a youthful face walked out of the shrine.

"Your name is Jinghua, right?"

Despite her advanced age, this old woman walked with a gait more steady than that of an average young man, without the aid of a cane or wheelchair.

"It seems the Yukinoshita family is really in trouble, otherwise they wouldn't have called this old woman out."

"We have disturbed the ancestor's peaceful cultivation; we deserve to die."

Shizuka remained kneeling on the ground, refusing to rise from the snow.

"Get up, child."

Shizuka Yukinoshita felt a powerful magical force, and then she was unable to maintain her kneeling position and stood up.

"As the first head of the family, I'd like to see what this old bone of mine can do—"

"Who dares to insult my Yukinoshita clan!"

————————————————The Crimson King———————————————————

Yukino Yukinoshita almost broke down.

His friend had just been attacked by the family's magicians, and suddenly he received an order from his mother that his father was a traitor who had killed more than a dozen of the family's magicians.

Mother is now mobilizing the entire family's resources to besiege Father.

Confusion, bewilderment, pain, and unease filled the girl's fragile heart.

This is not a trivial matter like parents arguing or getting a divorce; it's about parents turning against each other, with only one of them surviving in the end.

She didn't think her father could kill so many magicians, but her mother wouldn't joke about the lives of her aunt Ninghua and so many magicians.

Faced with this cruel truth, the "world where excellent people don't get hurt" that I pursue seems so powerless and so ridiculous.

"As expected, 'changing the world' was just an excuse..."

"All I want is a place to stay..."

There is still hope!

If I go back and stop my mother, things might take a turn for the better!

The courtyard of the mansion under the snow.

The lingering alcohol was stimulating his brain nerves, driving Harutaka Ogino to the brink of madness.

He had just gone out to drink as usual, but he didn't expect to sense an unusual murderous intent as soon as he got home.

That damned woman actually surrounded me with so many magicians, claiming that I had killed nearly half of the magicians in the Yukinoshita family?

Although he had developed his own power within the Yukinoshita family, these bodyguards were no match for the Yukinoshita magicians, who were skilled in both offense and defense. They could only use their lives to buy Ogino Harutaka a few minutes to prolong his life.

"Keep as far away as possible! He must have a hidden plan to kill so many magicians!"

How come I didn't know I was so amazing!

"Cast Ice Arrows in shifts! Don't give him a chance to cast!"

"Prepare to cast the spell! Avenge Lady Ninghua!"

A barrage of ice arrows flew toward Harutaka Ogino, forcing him to abandon the impossible summoning spell and instead raise a shield.

Many ice arrows were blocked by Harutaka Ogino, but some still managed to slip through and hit his calf.

The second wave of ice arrows came in quick succession, and this time Harutaka Ogino didn't have time to cast a new defensive spell.

His body, weakened by years of lack of exercise and alcohol, collapsed heavily to the ground.

Am I going to die?

Being a dog for you Yukinoshita wasn't enough, now you're making up such a childish and ridiculous reason. Do you think I'm worthless and want to eat dog meat?

I hate it so much! I hate it so much!

Anger burned in Harutaka Ogino's eyes, filled with hatred for Shizuka Yukinoshita, the Yukinoshita family, and the world.

"Father! Father!"

Ah, it's Yukino.

Faced with this only family member who truly loved him, the anger in Harutaka Ogino's eyes quickly turned into tenderness.

Your makeup's all ruined from crying, be careful you won't ever get married...

"Leave... Yukino..."

I don't want to drag you into this...

"No, Father..."

Harutaka Ogino didn't say anything, but instead stretched out his aching arm and pushed his youngest daughter away.

What was your reason for wanting to kill me?

Is it true that "they murdered more than a dozen magicians from the Yukinoshita family"?

Then I'll show you how to kill them!

"Miss Yukino, it's dangerous here, please leave immediately..."

The female magician in front of her grabbed Yukino Yukinoshita and spoke the cruelest words in the most polite tone.

"There's no need for you, Miss, to handle the execution of the traitor."

"Harutaka Ogino! What are you doing!"

The magicians who had already stepped forward exclaimed in surprise.

Harutaka Ogino was completely red, looking like a boiled lobster.

As a member of a family of demon magicians, he had also attempted to modify himself, but failed, gaining nothing but internal injuries.

No, actually I got it.

"Did he sever his magic circuits and then haphazardly piece them back together because he didn't want us to study his corpse?"

"His magic was surging wildly within him, like a battery short-circuiting—he was about to explode!"

"He used a binding spell before doing all this! Defense—"

boom--!!!

This is the only thing Harutaka Ogino gained during the renovation.

It's used to give oneself a dignified death.

"Another one of those overconfident insects..."

An aged voice rang out, chanting softly at a speed too fast to hear.

The magicians of the Yukinoshita family were immediately covered in solid ice, which neutralized the damage from the explosion.

Aside from injuries of varying degrees, no one died in the explosion.

"Alright, now you can deal with him."

The voice of the first head of the Yukinoshita family was old and cold, like an ice cap that had never melted for thousands of years.

----------------at the same time-------------------

There were no tears on Yukino Yukinoshita's face, because she had already cried all her tears.

Her mother only pushed her to become better, her sister only bothered her, and the other clansmen paid more attention to her sister, who had already been confirmed as the next head of the family.

Even her classmates and guests who come to visit her home will only refer to her as "Yukinoshita Haruno's younger sister".

I remember my father who taught me calligraphy when I was a child, who comforted me when I failed, and who was willing to listen to my troubles...

"There is no one left who can see me as 'Yukino Yukinoshita'..."

Watching her father being roughly lifted up and disposed of like trash by her clansmen, a twisted desire, born of pain, screamed in Yukino's heart—

"I have nothing left, so I don't want anything anymore..."

Kurosaki Azami's words from that day echoed in my mind:

"If you don't have a goal, I'll lend you mine—"

Give me peace of mind!!!

"Anyone is fine!"

Yukino Yukinoshita cried out hysterically.

Even if it's fake! Even if it's not real at all!

"All I want is a place to stay, all I want is peace of mind!"

"Miss Yukino..."

"It's okay, let her calm down for a bit—wailing!"

The magician who had spoken to him stared in astonishment at the large hole in his chest.

About ten meters behind him, a black-haired man with several bandages wrapped around his upper body shook off the bloodstains on his arms.

"Yukinoshita-kun,"

"I heard your request."

Chapter 46 The Emperor Who Rules Time (4000-word long chapter)

The man in front of me was tall and imposing, with slightly long black hair dancing in the wind. He wore a sleeveless black outfit and green wristbands, and his eyes revealed undisguised cruelty and desire.

Standing before a group of magicians, he exuded a dark and terrifying aura.

"Kuro...Azami Kurosaki?!"

What happened to the magician who was supposed to be a complete failure?

What's causing this feeling of oppression?

"There wasn't the slightest fluctuation of magical energy, nor was he wearing any magical artifacts, and there wasn't even a trace of a magic circle..."
