Background / History

Jietisikoki was born in 1890 of the Holy Era to an ordinary but stable family. During his youth, he experienced a nightmare of artillery, ruined cities, corpses, and war. Surviving it made him a Nightmare Sensor, but the experience also transformed his values and awakened an escalating desire to murder people. He initially concealed this impulse while serving as a Hunter Corps member. 1122

At age thirty, he reached the Fourth Nightmare Realm and became an Elite Hunter. Soon afterward, while camping with four teammates after a mission, he attacked them without warning, killing three; the sole survivor escaped and reported the betrayal. Jietisikoki became a wanted criminal and began wandering the Labyrinth. 1122

His fortunes changed rapidly after embracing murder. He reached the Fifth Nightmare Realm within a week, acquired the fifth-tier Life-Stealing Cleaver within a month, and comprehended the City of Frenzied Sin within a year. He subsequently discovered more than one hundred Hidden Realms and massacred their Heteromorph civilizations. 1122

Ten years after betraying the Hunter Corps, a voice led him beneath the sea to the Conduction Prism Eyes. The Divine Artifact granted him spatial divine power and knowledge that overturned his understanding of his own past and the world. He later infiltrated the Holy Light Pure Land repeatedly, carrying out massacres that earned him the title of Butcher Hunter. 1122

Jietisikoki later approached the Delight Theater and formally allied with its Headmaster, Mikun, around their shared goal of destroying the Holy Light Pure Land. 461

Appearance

Jietisikoki is a tall, powerfully built man who commonly appears in a black trench coat and black tricorn hat. His seemingly handsome, youthful face is a disguise: his original face was disfigured long ago, and he decorates himself with the skin of victims. 457 458

• His current facial skin was taken from an Elite Hunter he killed. 458
• His Conduction Prism Eyes are sharply contoured and crystalline. 1113
• He can form the Blood Weak Armor, including a helmet and faceguard fused over his head. 1124
• When empowered by soul power, his body becomes difficult to perceive, alternating between material and transparent states. 1181

Personality

Jietisikoki is arrogant, theatrical, and openly proud of his killings. He treats atrocity as entertainment, flaunts the identities and skins of his victims, and enjoys provoking others into emotional collapse. 458 1117 1120

He is also calculating. Before confronting Ye Chen, he spent days constructing a six-stage plan intended to exploit Ye Chen's compassion, Abyssal instincts, and mental endurance before claiming his body. 1166 1167

Despite his cruelty, he claims to have no interest in grand wars, organizations, or ideology. He told Sainsai that he only wanted the freedom to kill and wander, while later presenting himself as someone who required no tragic justification for evil. 1094 709

Abilities & Skills

Blood Touch, Mortal Flesh

Jietisikoki's Innate Spirit Art weakens supernatural beings into ordinary flesh when they come into contact with his blood.

• Can forcibly weaken the bodies of Nightmare Sensors and other extraordinary targets. 1123
• Forms the basis of his blood-based attacks and defenses. 1123 1124
• Its known Hunter Corps intelligence dates from when Jietisikoki was only a Fourth Nightmare Realm Hunter. 1123

Blood Weak Armor

A full-body armor condensed from Jietisikoki's blood that isolates his flesh from external contact.

• Weakens solids, liquids, gases, plasma, and spiritual constructs upon contact. 1124
• Can reduce attacks such as Ye Chen's Pure Blood spears back into inert blood. 1124
• Can be repaired with Jietisikoki's blood after sustaining damage. 1177

Conduction Prism Eyes

Jietisikoki's Divine Artifact, embedded in his crystalline eyes, grants control over spatial passages. 1113

• Creates small spatial passages for movement and large rifts to redirect incoming attacks. 1193
• Can create microscopic passages into a target's body, allowing his blood to inflict internal damage. 1127 1193
• Its third application, Blood Transmission, Mortal Flesh, combines spatial intrusion with Blood Touch, Mortal Flesh to corrode and weaken a target from within. 1127 1176
• Its final application opens a passage into a sufficiently weakened target's soul, allowing Jietisikoki to attempt direct spiritual annihilation. 1193

City of Frenzied Sin

Jietisikoki's Spirit Realm is a persistent prison-world sustained by the souls of those he has personally killed. 1182

• Personally killed sapient beings are drawn into the City and remain under Jietisikoki's control unless he releases them or dies completely. 1182
• Can remain established in the real world indefinitely as a Hidden Realm. 1182
• Can guide the thoughts of living captives at or below Jietisikoki's level and temporarily sever a Nightmare Sensor's connection to their Labyrinth Relic. 1182
• Suppresses the activation and stability of other Spirit Realms. 1182
• Can transform ordinary souls into immortal monsters and reproduce the former abilities of extraordinary souls to build an army. 1182

Sin Frenzied Body

The City of Frenzied Sin's ultimate technique allows Jietisikoki to absorb the energy of imprisoned souls.

• Produces a massive increase in physical strength, spiritual energy, and combat ability. 1183
• Enabled his soul-powered, half-real state and instantaneous resurrection during his battle with Ye Chen. 1181
• Overdraws Jietisikoki's life and soul power; excessive use inflicted severe backlash during Ye Chen's advancement ritual. 1183 1199

Blood Torture Karma

A wide-area blood-based attack used while Jietisikoki is empowered by Sin Frenzied Body.

• Can devastate large groups of Abyss creatures at once. 1198 1199
• Drains Jietisikoki's soul power heavily when used at full force. 1199

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Conduction Prism Eyes — Divine Artifact granting spatial and spiritual intrusion abilities. 1113 1193
• Life-Stealing Cleaver — Fifth-tier Labyrinth Relic that granted one resurrection for every person Jietisikoki killed. It initially held 1,062,795 resurrection charges. 1122 1139
  • The cleaver could regenerate after ordinary attempts at destruction. 1139
  • Ye Chen ultimately destroyed it, removing Jietisikoki's source of resurrection. 1224
• Blood Weak Armor — Blood-condensed defensive armor that weakens external matter and energy. 1124

Relationships

• Ye Chen — Primary prey and eventual nemesis. Jietisikoki believed only one of them could survive, as he needed Ye Chen's body and identity to continue living. Ye Chen ultimately destroyed the Life-Stealing Cleaver and defeated him. 1096 1224
• Mikun — Headmaster of the Delight Theater and formal ally. They agreed to cooperate against the Holy Light Pure Land, and Jietisikoki regarded Mikun's power and knowledge with admiration. 461 704
• Sainsai — Core Delight Theater clown who learned of Jietisikoki's curse, motives, past, and conflict with Ye Chen through private conversations. 1094 1095
• Ding Moluo — Hostile prospective ally. Ding Moluo demanded that Jietisikoki join Delight Theater officially; Jietisikoki refused and mocked the Theater's attire. 458
• Lifa — His secretary, who follows his orders without question. 1110

Story Role / Major Arcs

Delight Theater Alliance

Jietisikoki entered the Delight Theater through a spatial fissure and proposed cooperation while still wearing his Hunter uniform. He rejected Ding Moluo's demand to undergo the Theater's initiation, but later secured Mikun's support for a joint effort to destroy the Holy Light Pure Land. 457 458 461

The Hunt for Ye Chen

Jietisikoki identified Ye Chen as his true prey and constructed the City of Frenzied Sin around a prolonged psychological hunt. His six-stage plan was designed to bind Ye Chen to the Daig Family, repeatedly expose him to tragedy, destabilize his humanity and Abyssal instincts, exhaust him through a war of attrition, and finally invade his soul. 1096 1167

Final Battle in Sin City

Jietisikoki repeatedly fought and resurrected against Ye Chen through the Life-Stealing Cleaver, eventually expending almost all of its reserves under Ye Chen's Blood Sun. He attempted to enter Ye Chen's mind through the Conduction Prism Eyes, but misidentified Ye Chen's true soul structure and was expelled from the mental world. 1216 1222 1223

After Ye Chen destroyed the Life-Stealing Cleaver, Jietisikoki lost his final advantage and broke down. When he begged for mercy, Ye Chen refused, holding him accountable for the path he had chosen. 1224 1228

• He described his relationship with the Divine Artifact as a hierarchy: himself above the Labyrinth Relic, but the Divine Artifact above himself. 1139
