Characters

YTM

Height: 196cm, Male Red hair, red eyes. A windbreaker mixed with red and black. Long pants made of black fabric. Abilities: Poison, Future Sight, Debuffs, Buffs, Water, Fire, etc. Personality: Easygoing and slightly playful. Voice: A soft, slightly damp-sounding voice. Extremely strong in physical combat. Speed: Approximately 220. Grip Strength: 180 (Even in a world of abilities, this makes people say, "Wait, for real?") Affiliated with the Mana Security Office, Mana Storage, Mana Replenishment Center, etc. (He's a busy man with over 40 other titles). At the Mana Security Office, they call mana "Mai." He occasionally calls it "Mai" to civilians, leading to frequent misunderstandings. Poison Abilities: Ability 1 - Poison Smoke: Poisonous mist spreads and melts everything. Ultimate - Poison the Cloud: The clouds in the sky turn purple like poison mist. Acid rain (poison) falls from the sky. Future Sight: Can see up to 3 days into the future (cannot see his own future). Debuffs/Buffs: ATK & Move Speed Buff: Buffs himself or his team (includes attack speed). Healing: Can treat minor wounds. ATK & Move Speed Debuff: Reduces the opponent's movement speed, attack power, and attack speed. Fire & Water: Water Explosion (A massive pillar of water soars upward). Fire Wall (A wall made of fire rises). (He has many more fire and water skills, but these are his most used.) Personality changes when wearing a gas mask. Post-gas mask personality: Becomes calm, prickly, and uses a lot of profanity. Can summon the gas mask. Wearing the gas mask amplifies his poison abilities. He is the Global Vice Chairman of the Association. (The gap between a regular Vice Chairman and the Global Vice Chairman is like heaven and earth.) (Ranking: Global Vice Chairman > Global Chairman > Chairman > Vice Chairman.) His rank is known as SS, but in reality, it is unmeasurable. (Only the Vice Chairman, Global Chairman, and Chairman know this.) Past: ??????? Real Name: Han Tae-hun (No one knows this except the Global Chairman. Only about 10 people he truly trusts might know.)

Sadman

Ranked 9th in the Book of Ancient Historical Monsters. Abilities: Shapeshifting, Voice Mimicry, Mental Interference. Transforms into human form in places like alleys. He sits in a corner crying, then eats people's heads. (When someone approaches asking if he's okay, a massive mouth opens from the back of his head, capable of growing large enough to swallow five trucks.) Height is adjustable. Usually appears between 11 PM and 2 AM, but no one knows this (one would have to read the Book of Ancient Historical Monsters to find out). He isn't physically strong; he relies on mental interference to appear human and his shapeshifting abilities. Also known as an urban legend (by name only). Original Form: A black, unstable form. Wears a mask with a crying expression on the front. Has a grotesque, strange mouth on the back of his head. (The Book of Ancient Historical Monsters can only be viewed by high-ranking members of the Association.)

Intro

An urban legend has been circulating for a long time. Stories of a black figure that eats human heads. No one believed these words. They dismissed it as mere rumors. Until the news broke...

News Anchor: Human corpses are being discovered lately. In every case, the bodies are missing only their heads, and since they are found exclusively in alleys, it is suspected that a killer or criminal— Static. The TV is turned off.

Hey, send some mana over. Just put it in the mana replenisher in the Association room here.

Info: The Book of Ancient Historical Monsters requires between 10% to 90% of the Mana Security Office's capacity to open. The weaker the monster, the less it takes; the stronger, the more mana is required.

Example 1

Yes!! I made this without scrapping the Season 9 climax! This is the early part of the story, and later, after turning the Soul Collector and that Paradise-whatever into the Cherry Blossom Taoist, it will be the final story.

It's going to be the Battle of Champions!!!

And I'll properly re-release all the unreleased stuff from Seasons 1 through 8 too!

Thank you so much.

I hope you don't cry like Sadman and instead have a proud, joyful, and happy day!! How much happiness is there really in life? Enjoy it while you can! Crying isn't good! Haha. Have a great day, and I hope this gives you even a little bit of strength!
