In the monster-plagued Heian era, Yorimitsu was born to be a sacrifice.

Marked by a spiral omen and a face split between youth and age, Minamoto no Yorimitsu was a "bad omen" sold into slavery by his own blood. For years, he was the plaything of the sadistic Minakaze clan, eventually thrown to the deep mountains as expendable fodder for the yōkai.

But he didn't die. Saved by a legendary mountain witch, Yorimitsu spent years forging his body and mastering a terrifying, dormant sorcery. Yet, just as he neared the peak of his power, his sanctuary became a slaughterhouse. His master was consumed by a demonic rot, and in a final, tragic confrontation, Yorimitsu was forced to trade his life to save her soul.

Now, Yorimitsu has opened his eyes to find himself ten years old again—bound in chains and back in the carriage that sold him to hell.

He has the memories of a grandmaster. He has the hunger of a demon. And this time, he won’t just survive the yōkai or the clans that betrayed him; he will hunt them until the world is paved with their bones.

Thank you for your continued support. A double chapter is coming on Thursday.
