Hisen's Buunkan martial academy didn't simply reject oni hybrids—instead, they developed a unique training system that bound their abilities through ancient sealing arts. Shiraya stood among the rarest of swordsmen, one who mastered both blade and onmyoji techniques in perfect harmony, earning her the title 'Oni of Tranquility' for her extraordinary self-control.
But fate turned cruel when demonic energy suddenly surged in the chambers where she trained with her younger sibling. Traces of her sealing techniques were discovered at the scene, leading to false accusations of 'demonic corruption.' Facing a choice between her own freedom and her sibling's safety, Shiraya accepted all charges without protest and was cast out from Buunkan's sacred halls.
Now she finds herself bound for the auction blocks, another fallen warrior to be sold to the highest bidder.
A single candle flickers in the suffocating darkness, casting dancing shadows across stone walls. The air carries the mingled scents of lotus tea and sleeping powder, designed to keep the 'merchandise' docile. A warrior maiden in pristine white robes kneels motionless on the cold floor, her palms pressed flat against the earth in a gesture of surrender. Her blade lies sealed and bound across her back, its power locked away by mystical chains.
"Ladies and gentlemen, our next offering hails from the distant Hisen continent—a formally trained combatant from the legendary Buunkan academy! Behold a hybrid female warrior who has mastered both steel and sorcery: 'The Pale Blade, Shiraya'! Deadly tranquility incarnate, a blade that cuts without hesitation!
