The air seemed stale as Haru flew into Beijing to the sight of a dark cloud of smoke that loomed over the cities skyline. Lights flashed throughout the air as explosions and gunfire rained down upon the ground. It seemed obvious to Haru that the fight was soon coming to an end.
The military equipment set up by the Chinese government seemed like it had stretched thin and their defences looked incredibly weak for the defence of the president and politicians.
'It's gotten this bad huh?' Haru asked himself as he floated above the city and watched on as the fighting only became more intense. But as he continued to look down at the fighting he became a little distracted from his surroundings and didn't realise there was a humming sound coming from behind him, slowly creeping up in secret.
The sound became louder and louder until the point that it could no longer be ignored and Haru turned back to see a flash of white light shot directly into his eyes.
"What is that!?" Haru asked as the humming climaxed and a gust of wind shot past his face as the object flying through the sky whistled away from him.
'Was that a plane?' Haru thought as he turned back to see what looked to be somebodies private jet flying over the battlefield.
'That doesn't seem like the best judgement on their part. Don't they know that there is a war zone bellow them?' Haru sighed as the plane steadied its self and continued in a straight line as the cargo hold in the rear began to open. Revealing a person dressed in black with a helmet over their head obstructing their face from Haru's eyes.
Suddenly the person leapt forwards out of the back of the plane and plummeted towards the earth, leading themselves with their nose aimed straight at the floor.
There was a moment as Haru watched that he thought about catching them out of instinct but he figured that it was probably for the best that he didn't intervene. After all, he didn't know whether the person that had dived down into the battlefield was a friend or foe.
'Well, I think it's about time that I find whoever is responsible for this mess.' Haru thought to himself as he shook his head in disappointment and flew down towards the capital building in the centre of the city.
Haru didn't know what he would find once he approached the building in which the government's officials would have been hiding but he expected to find a lot of bodies. But as he got closer to the ground he felt a strange presence coming from within the building.
He landed on the roof of the building and spread out his Qi as far as he could to try to get a better understanding of what was happening within the building. It would have been natural to feel fear leaking out from within as the people that were hiding would be too afraid to step foot outside out of fear of being killed.
But although Haru could sense the life force of many people within the building, not a single one of them seemed scared. They had no emotion whatsoever.
It seemed as though the life forces within the capital building were nothing but empty shells or puppets.
"Somethings not right here. This is unnatural." Haru whispered as he couldn't understand what was going on. He tried to guess the reason for the people inside to not be expressing feelings but he knew that the only way he would know for sure would be if he entered the building and looked around for himself.
Haru strolled over to the edge of the roof and peered over at the window below him. If he wanted to get inside without going through any of the main entrances the window seemed like the best option. He jumped over the edge of the building and dropped down onto the windowsill.
Once he found stable footing he reached down and pulled open the window before quietly entering into a dark room that was filled with office equipment.
As Haru entered the strange feeling of emptiness only grew stronger as he looked around for a few moments to see that there was a silhouette of a man standing in the corner of the room.
Haru froze for a moment as he didn't detect anyone in that particular room before he entered. He thought for sure that there would be no one around to see him. But as he remained still he noticed that the man who was standing in the room with him no longer had a pulse.
'He's dead? That would explain why I couldn't detect him. But how does someone die while standing up?' Haru asked himself as he looked at the man in the corner of the room once again before moving closer to investigate.
But as soon as he did Haru felt the presence of something else. Something that he didn't expect to find on earth.
"Demonic Qi!" Haru called out as he recognised it to be the same type of Qi that he had encountered in the soul tempering grounds. From what he was told about it. Demonic Qi was a special type of Qi that was produced on the planets inhabited by the demon clan. Unlike regular Qi that was the essence of life. Demonic Qi was the essence of death and killed anything that touched it nearly instantly.
That is why to absorb it a human would need to learn how to purify it. But as for the demon clan, they could absorb it without any backlash since the curse their founder placed on them was made of demonic Qi.
"Why would that be in a place like this?" Haru asked as he took a few steps forward and placed his hand out towards the man. The demonic Qi suddenly rushed towards Haru and soon enveloped his entire body in a cloud of black mist.
Haru closed his eyes and remained calm since he knew exactly what to do to purify it and he began to do so causing the mist to become thinner before dissipating altogether as he absorbed every last drop.
Haru then spread his Qi out through the building once again to check on the people inside with him to make sure that there were no other corpses with demonic Qi within them. But it all appeared to be okay.
He wasn't entirely sure why there was only one person who was infected by the Qi but it seemed strange to him. It would have to be a planned attack for a human to even come into contact with demonic Qi so he knew that it wasn't an accident. Yet nothing was adding up.
He tried to think once again but no obvious reason jumped out to him until he walked into the next room to see a large wooden table with dozens of famous Chinese politicians sitting around it staring forwards with a blank expression on each of their faces.
It was as if everything that made them human had been stripped from them entirely and all that was left behind was an empty shell of their former selves.
"This is!? What is this?!" Haru asked himself as a slight chuckle emerged from the darkness behind him.
"It's great, isn't it? If you put a little bit of demonic Qi into their drinking water they will become mindless slaves for our clan. You, humans, are naturally weak to poisons so it's a surprise that you made it in here. Who are you? Tell me your name and I will give you a quick death." A voice called out as it caught Haru completely by surprise.
Haru turned to see a faint glow across the room as a man with red skin stared back at him with small beady eyes.
'He doesn't look like a member of the demon clan… I have never heard of or seen anyone like this before. What is the?' Haru asked as he stared at the man for a few moments before footsteps echoed out from the opposite side of the building followed by a familiar voice.
"Is that Haru that I hear? Or should I call you Luo Yang?" The other voice called out as Haru quickly recognised who it belonged to.
"This is the one we were sent for? You're lucky you got here in time or I would have cut off his head." The man spoke from the shadows once again as a shroud of darkness quickly began to flood the room as Haru looked up at the man who had just entered.
"It's you! I've finally found you. Oh, I've been waiting patiently for the day I would see you again my old friend." Haru spoke with a shaky voice as he looked directly into the eyes of the demon spy that was responsible for Suyin's death.
