Enlightened Human

After packing up all the belongings he considered important, mostly memorabilia of his deceased parents, Shiro ordered his [Nameless System] to send him to a world where he would be able to master his sword or meet someone who is either willing to teach him or be his training partner.

However, before that, he had also specified that it shouldn't be in any martial world.

Shiro doesn't want to deal with arrogant people, specifically young masters whose arrogance knows no bounds.

He wanted to avoid experiencing a domino chain reaction of vengeance and killing.

While Shiro doesn't mind slaughter and chaos it will still leave a bad taste to end multiple family generations.

Shiro might be prideful, but arrogance is a wholly different matter.

Pride is when a person feels satisfied with his abilities or possessions while arrogance is when a person has an inflated opinion of his abilities or possessions.

The next instant Shiro's vision was engulfed by complete darkness reminding him of his earlier experience when he was undergoing evolution into a high human.

The feeling is terrifying but at the same time serine.

[Notice. You're about to enter a foreign world.]

[Notice. Creating a new identity.]

Name: Shiro Morningstar

Gender: Male

Race: Unknown

Age: 21

Shiro Morningstar, an abandoned bastard son of a noble man.

Shiro after reading his new identity trip over.

He wanted to voice his complaint, but he decided to hold it as he sensed three pairs of eyes looking straight at him.

At the moment Shiro's vision has yet to completely adjust to his surroundings, but his senses alerted him of 3 presences and two of these presences are very dangerous.

The closest to him didn't show any hostile intentions.

He is like a calm ocean that radiates peace and tranquility but if stirred, he could bring forth unimaginable disaster.

The second is a woman who resembles a gorgeous flower, unfortunately one that is already withering on the inside.

As for the third one, it was no man, calling it a monster wouldn't be an understatement.

A being embodying overwhelming pride, chaos, madness, cruelty, and violence, it also radiates a strong vitality though one that isn't good to others because it's more like a poison that destroys anything it touches.

This person is like a bubbling and boiling magma blowing out of a volcano trying to swallow everything in its path.

An incarnation of calamity.

Destinies that guide each other but continually change…

And for some strange coincidence someone who shouldn't be at this critical point of history made his appearance.

Shiro after adjusting to his surroundings was able to picture the image of the three individuals he was only able to sense earlier.

His eyes were quickly drawn to a gorgeous petite young woman with long, dark brown hair, parted in the center and worn braided back into a large, low bun, which is held in place by a floral tama-kanzashi hairpin.

She was supposed to be the most normal between the three for that reason why Shiro's attention was drawn to her.

She has large, lifeless eyes that, strangely enough, do not have pupils, only a haze of lavender that fades to dark purple the higher it goes, and notably red lips in contrast to her pale complexion.

Using his Clairvoyance Shiro was able to know that her name is Tamayo.

She's gentle, wise, and incredibly intelligent.

Unfortunately, a pitiful person who had seen and experienced the cruel reality of the world.

Someone who despises her very existence.

She who regretted her living.

[Notice. You gained the skill [Blood Bewitchment] from individual Tamayo.]

[Notice. The skill is incompatible with the user.]

[Notice. Searching for a possible alternative.]

[Congratulations. You've acquired the skill [Charming Demon] confirmed.]

[Notice. [Perfect Amelioration] is reacting to the newly acquired skill.]

[Congratulations. The skill [Charming Demon] had evolved into [Devils Charm.] confirmed.]

Just from a single glance due to his [Clairvoyance] Shiro received a similar skill to that of Tamayo and it's definitely better in comparison.

Shiro wasn't expecting such an outcome.

This was the first time he had received a skill all of a sudden just from using [Clairvoyance] on someone.

But right now isn't the time to be excited.

Calming himself down, he scrutinized the other two.

Just from a single glance, he could tell that the three weren't acquaintances and the two, including Tamayo aren't even humans to begin with.

However, the man just beside him who stayed stoic despite the awkward atmosphere cannot be considered as a human either.

Tall man with a muscular build, fair skin, maroon eyes, and long spiky hair with red tips that he kept in a ponytail.

He wore a red haori over a very pale orange-colored nagagi kimono with a black umanori-styled hakama, a pair of zōri with red straps and white tabi socks, with a Nichirin Sword carried on the left side of his waist and sporting hanafuda earrings.

His name is Yoriichi Tsugikuni.

As a seven-year-old child who has never picked up a sword before, he was able to defeat a trained sword instructor effortlessly at that, so he was referred to as a miraculous prodigy beyond compare.

However, Yoriichi doesn't have any great ambitions.

He who only dreamt of living a peaceful life together with his loving wife and unborn child.

That would have been enough for him.

But even that would never come true.

Fate is cruel to him.

As the one destined to end the tyranny of the demon king.

'What's going on, system?'

[There's a possibility of skill synchronization and evolution.]

EH-

[Congratulations. You've received the skill [Heavenly Eyes] confirmed.]

[Congratulations. You received 10,000,000 origin points for achieving a sensational feat.]

[Congratulations. You received 10 free stats points.]

'He really isn't human.'

Muttered Shiro in a low voice.

It was then that he heard Nameless System's voice add something.

[Individual Yoriichi Tsugikuni is a pseudo Enlightened.]

'Pseudo Enlightened?'

The system is being informative so Shiro decided to push the system for more information.

While Shiro did have the system in the palm of his hands some of its hidden functions wouldn't show itself unless certain requirements are met.

[It's the first evolution path of when a human, Demi human or any other races related to humans had reached a certain threshold in their existence, their souls and astral body evolving into something greater beyond human comprehension.]

[Unfortunately, Yoriichi Tsugikuni is born in a world where special energies such as [Mana] and [Spirit] are miniscule, the reason he is stuck on his current evolution and is unable to continue forward.]

[Based on my analysis Yoriichi Tsugikuni talent can be considered as heaven defying.]

'Human evolving into High Human is biological while Human to Enlightened Human is spiritual.'

[Affirmative.]

'How can I evolve into an Enlightened Human?'

Shiro asked the system.

[Enlightenment occurs as the result of long and arduous training that ends with the person in question breaking through a mental barrier.]

'It's vague.

Can't you be more specific?'

[...]

'No answer, eh.

Forget it, I'll just have to explore it myself.'

Shiro shifted his focus from Yoriichi Tsugikuni to the tall and muscular man, with an unnaturally pale skin complexion.

He appears to be In his twenties.

He has curly black hair, and sharp, almond-shaped eyes.

His irises are cat-like in appearance and colored plum red.

He also possesses sharp, blue nails on his hands.

The man- no the monster is cold-hearted, ruthless, intimidating, and exceptionally intelligent.

He possesses extreme narcissism, pettiness and an obsession with becoming the perfect being.
