It's as if, after the Gastrea were born, they were divided into two extremes.
This has led to the unrestricted oppression of the cursed children, which can be described as the malice of the world.
Besides, given our current limited strength, issuing an invitation would be meaningless.
He looked at the silver-haired girl with cat ears. Despite having suffered severe injuries, this cursed child quickly awoke.
When she opened her eyes, she met Yalin's gaze. After a moment of surprise, she immediately shrank back into the corner in a panic.
"Don't worry, the people who were chasing you are dead, and you are safe now."
Now, let me introduce myself.
Despite his harsh tone, Yalin's voice seemed to possess a magical power, managing to calm the silver-haired girl down as she spoke timidly.
"My name is Fushitsui. Thank you so much for saving my life."
Is that so?
Yalin was not surprised by this; he had anticipated it after learning that Senju Natsumi had become the Initiator.
However, in her original destiny, Fūshi Tsui should not have encountered this danger.
Clearly, his existence has had an impact on the world.
"Where do you live? Do you need me to take you back?"
Although the outer area was abandoned, it was used to operate nuclear power generation, waste treatment plants, and genetically modified farmland.
The environment is so harsh that normal people would not want to live there, but it is actually home to many cursed children, and the area is quite vast.
Even Yalin lived here for a period of time back then.
Fuse Tsui shook her head slightly. Because of her cat ears, she was abandoned by her mother and had been living as a stray ever since, afraid of being rejected by others again.
Even when he spoke with the cursed son in the past, he always wore a hat, for fear of being stared at.
However, her hat went missing during the chase, forcing her to appear in her current form.
If it weren't for Arin's presence making Buse Tsui feel safe and warm, she probably would have been completely lost long ago.
"In that case, you may stay here for a while."
Come with me later.
Yalin said to Busi Tsui, seemingly disregarding the fact that the girl had just woken up and was in a weak state.
"Okay, okay."
"I'll say it timidly," said Buse Tsui.
"Next, come with me to buy some daily necessities."
—And to clean up some scum.
On the tram, Yalin traveled from the 39th district on the border to the bustling area.
Of the 43 wards of Tokyo, Ward 1 is the absolute core area, where only the publicly acknowledged leader, the Holy Emperor, and high-ranking officials can reside.
Busi Tsui gripped her hat tightly, looking around nervously, afraid that her identity would be discovered and she would be scorned or even hunted down by normal people.
Senju Natsuyo remained expressionless, but her breathing was slightly more rapid than usual.
Children like them, the cursed ones, only have the right to live in normal areas if they are chosen as the initiators among the police.
Normally, people only rummage through trash cans in normal areas to find leftovers to eat if they really can't find any food.
Some of the most daring or starving of the cursed children will steal food from supermarkets or convenience stores.
However, if they are caught, they will pay a heavy price; being tortured and executed is a normal occurrence.
According to the book, this is punishment for illegal and criminal acts, but the punishment for them is much heavier than that for normal people.
"Don't worry, you've been disguised. Your red pupils and ears have been hidden, so no one will notice anything unusual."
Yalin gently rubbed Chishou Natsume's head and comforted him softly.
After hearing his words, the highly intelligent girl decided to come along as well.
Perhaps they're afraid he'll default on his debt and run away?
Xia Shi remained silent upon hearing this, but he did feel relieved.
Compared to the two girls, Yalin was truly unmoved.
Even if something unexpected happens, at worst they'll kill the person who tried to harm them and then grind their bones to dust.
Even though his current strength is insufficient, Yalin can still handle this minor situation.
To be honest, even after living in the Black Bullet World for several years, he still couldn't understand how the human brain works in that world.
Nine years ago, after an experiment went out of control and a gastrulation virus outbreak occurred, humanity suffered a complete defeat in the war against gastrulation and could only eke out a living by using giant painted stone monuments.
Even now, human civilization has not recovered, and the population is less than one-tenth of what it was before the war.
In order to counteract the anti-gut animals, many costly projects were developed in the past few years, but it was found that most of them were not cost-effective.
Let alone recovering lost territory, even defense is a major problem.
The thought of Gastrea, capable of evolution, sends chills down everyone's spine.
Just when humanity was in despair, it was discovered that children born to mothers who ingested Gastrea viruses during pregnancy, causing the viruses to accumulate in the fetus's body, possess certain Gastrea abilities and, with a little training, can become incredibly powerful.
Therefore, the police system was immediately established, with normal humans and the cursed children working together to resist and exterminate Gastrea, nipping the danger in the bud and preventing a large-scale Gastrea war from breaking out.
Even Taurus and Scorpio in Stage V of the Zodiac were killed by the Cursed Child.
This was much cheaper and more resource-efficient than previous plans, and the results were outstanding, so all the original research was stopped as a result.
Human civilization as a whole depends on the cursed children to maintain its current stability.
It is no exaggeration to say that they are humanity's last hope.
In this situation, it would be one thing not to improve their treatment.
Furthermore, because they possess gastritis viruses, they are discriminated against and even hated by most humans, who refuse to treat them like normal people and even abuse the cursed child to vent their past hatred.
Even if one becomes an Initiator among the police officers, the use of their abilities in the fight for humanity leads to an increase in the rate of corruption, and their life enters a countdown.
They won't receive gratitude; instead, they'll be widely seen as garbage cleaning each other up, and people will only applaud whichever side dies.
In Japan, a Pureblood Society dedicated to opposing the cursed children was even established, with many politicians and leaders among its core members, wielding absolute power.
It can be said that this trend has become the mainstream of society.
Even the very few who remain rational and kind to the cursed children will be of little use in the face of such a wave, and will instead be ostracized.
Yalin couldn't understand this logic at first; it was too twisted.
If you truly hate Gastrea, then go find them on the border and take revenge. But the result is a bunch of cowardly dogs who don't have the guts and only bully the weak.
Of course, after being imprisoned for many years, he completely let go of it.
This society is so sick that reasoning with these dogs is pointless and a waste of time.
If the logic doesn't work, then we have to resort to physics.
......
In the supermarket, Senju Natsuyo and Fuse Midori were stunned by the dazzling array of food, their eyes filled with longing.
However, both girls were sensible. Even though they couldn't hold back any longer, they only looked at Yalin and carefully picked up the vegetables, fruits, and meat after receiving his permission.
They had rarely seen such fresh food before, and were overwhelmed by the choices.
"Yalin, can we buy this?"
Chizu Natsuyo held up a small box of cakes, a hint of emotion flickering in her voice.
"Sure, but don't take too many, so as not to attract attention."
Although Yalin doesn't mind eliminating some malicious offspring, his next actions are related to the stable development in the future, so he still needs to be more discreet.
Otherwise, if the Tian Tong family and the Wu Xiang Society find out in advance, there will be some complications.
"Oh."
Xia Shi nodded, selecting ingredients more carefully, and then looked towards another area.
Busi Tsuri came to Yalin's side, pitifully holding his hand, while holding food in her other hand, and was very nervous about the stares from those around her.
Yalin let the girl lead him, calmly observing everyone who came and went.
The Demon King's innate ability allows him to sense, mark, and differentiate them, preparing for future purges.
Even if he fully matures, he will not kill indiscriminately, as that would be too chaotic and twisted.
A moment later, Natsume Senju pushed a cart full of food to Ayrin and, seeing Midori Fuse's actions, also took Ayrin's hand.
When making the payment, Yalin took out the funds that had been seized from the trio of Bao Xie Zhuoren.
To be able to become the captain of the Emperor's Guard after graduation, one can imagine the influence of his powerful connections.
Even if such a person only carries money with him, it would still be a considerable sum.
Wait a minute, now that Takuto Howaki is dead, his family probably won't let this go.
Once the other party finds out the direction the three know, there is a high probability that it will bring a series of troubles, and may even affect the nearby cursed children.
Yalin thought this through and marked the Bao Xie family, preparing to eliminate them completely.
According to the interrogation of Takuto Howaki's soul through the Soul Lamp, his family are all members of the Pureblood Order and are very enthusiastic about promoting the "law to strip the cursed child of his family registration".
The goal is to completely deprive them of their basic human rights and prevent them from being recognized by law.
Once this law is implemented, the already restless rioters will likely become even more unscrupulous, and some who were initially hesitant may even make up their minds to act.
The cursed children of the outer regions are likely to face utter destruction.
Such scumbags cannot be allowed to live in this world.
......
When Yalin looked at the list, he noticed something was wrong and looked at Xia Shi.
"You bought so many canned goods to store food?"
