Background / History

Before arriving in Terra, Bai Ye was a sickly young man whose poor health had defined much of his life. Transmigration remade his body into a far healthier and stronger one, while leaving him outwardly slender and delicate-looking. He received a System that supplied attributes, classes, missions, experience, and card draws; he selected the Cleric class and began building his own divine and martial capabilities. 24 28 904

Bai Ye encountered Texas shortly after arriving in Terra, when she initially held a sword to his throat. They became partners, with Texas providing protection, equipment, and practical support while Bai Ye learned to survive through bounty work, divine arts, and constant training. 22 26 34

He became a bounty hunter in Columbia and gained notoriety as the White Yaksha, a deceptively harmless-looking combatant known for overwhelming physical power and swordsmanship. His repeated commissions, system training against a virtual Texas, and intensive practice in Blade Vine Style developed him from a novice into a capable fighter. 34 43 158 302

After three years in Terra, Bai Ye agreed to become a Rhodes Island elite operator while remaining with Penguin Logistics. His reason was not merely personal advancement: after witnessing Oripathy’s suffering among friends and strangers, he sought the resources and allies needed to change the world. 142

Following his advancement to Legend, Bai Ye adopted a broader objective: acquire lost knowledge, mend Terra, and earn the world’s recognition through meaningful change. This goal eventually led him to forge alliances among multiple nations and entrust Namba Heavy Industries to Rhodes Island before departing on a personal journey. 769 984

Appearance

Bai Ye is a 175 cm human man with a slender, fair-skinned build and an appearance frequently described as cute, pretty, or androgynous. His harmless appearance sharply contrasts with the intense, blade-like aura he displays in combat. 13 120

• His original appearance included short black hair, dark eyes, and a delicate face that regularly caused others to mistake him for a girl. 24 691
• His Disguise talent reinforces this impression by lowering others’ guard and concealing his aura. 2 24
• Residual divine power later changed his hair into long, pale-golden strands and turned his eyes pale gold. 794 801
• He commonly wears a Penguin Logistics uniform, an anti-gun suit, or the white Walking Church battle robe. 13 26 292

Personality

Bai Ye is gentle and approachable, but maintains clear personal boundaries. He quickly forms friendships with operators and civilians alike, often offering instruction, protection, or assistance without demanding repayment. 13 178 682

He is compassionate toward the vulnerable and especially sensitive to the suffering caused by Oripathy. He repeatedly chooses mercy when he has the strength to kill, including sparing Big Bob and attempting to persuade Reunion soldiers to surrender rather than forcing a massacre. 175 357

Despite his kindness, Bai Ye is not naïve. He is cautious with his secrets, plans ahead for emergencies, and uses intimidation when negotiation requires it. His confidence can become theatrical—he enjoys “putting on a show”—but he generally controls his strength to avoid needless collateral damage. 221 233 700 768

Abilities & Skills

Divine Arts and Originium Arts

Bai Ye’s two principal Arts are Holy Light and Power of Nature. Rhodes Island cannot properly measure their upper limits and notes that their structure may not be conventional Originium Arts. 13

• Uses Holy Light to heal wounds, restore allies, create shields, enhance physical abilities, and attack with sacred flames or energy projectiles. 101 122 549
• Uses Nature-based arts for druidic spells, terrain interaction, weather-related effects, and transformation. 8 775
• His Arts manifest in pale gold, pure white, and light green, accompanied by an unrecognized ancient language. 13
• His usual combat routine combines Flash, defensive shields, buffs, and a direct sword charge. 416
• His magical cannon can function as a battlefield barrage; the Dragon King’s Sigh releases an ultra-long-range blast after ten seconds without attacking. 13 101

Healing and Resurrection

As a priest, Bai Ye possesses extensive healing and restorative magic that grows dramatically at higher ranks. 582 897

• Can heal injuries, restore health, grant shields, and remove negative conditions. 13 549 582
• Regeneration can restore limbs and organs, while Greater Restoration removes debilitating conditions. 582
• Rebirth becomes available after his Legendary promotion. 582
• Ninth-circle Complete Resurrection can revive someone dead for no more than 200 years if their soul can be located; it can create a new body if the original is unavailable. 897
• Resurrection is not treated casually: Bai Ye acknowledges its pain and ethical weight, and requires Rhodes Island’s medical support for complex cases. 581 582

Swordsmanship

Bai Ye is an exceptional swordsman whose ability developed through System-infused knowledge, continual combat practice, Blade Vine Style, and Ikki Kurogane’s swordsmanship. 32 43 130

• Mastered all forty-nine forms of Blade Vine Style during repeated training against the System’s virtual Texas. 43
• Reached expert cold-weapon proficiency after receiving Ikki Kurogane’s knowledge and techniques. 130
• Uses the Eight Secret Swords, including First Secret Sword—Rhinoceros Strike and Final Secret Sword—Shadow Pursuit. 130 184
• Combines Wave Strike with Rhinoceros Strike for devastating single-target blows, including attacks that shattered Patriot’s armor and destroyed the Cannibalism ritual. 422 567
• Can transmit force through armor with high-frequency blade vibration, allowing strikes to damage protected targets. 303
• His later Life Two-Sword Style grants dual-wielding techniques inherited from the Konpaku family. 633 634

Physical Combat and Energy Enhancement

Bai Ye’s body possesses superhuman strength, speed, resilience, and reflexes despite its slight appearance. 5 120 158

• Uses Holy Light through the Dawn Tower Energy Guidance Method to reinforce his body and strikes directly. 28 122
• Is proficient in unarmed and close-quarters combat, capable of overpowering armed bounty hunters and fighting Hoshiguma head-on. 39 120 172
• Overclock Mode accelerates his thought process, judgment, reflexes, and sensory processing, but consumes mental energy. 8 466
• Warma’s Fire Extinguisher can temporarily double his attributes, allowing him to exceed ordinary human limits. 322
• Even at high speed, he must balance physical attributes; excessive speed without sufficient durability would damage his body. 120

Perception, Stealth, and Mobility

Bai Ye combines heightened senses with a broad set of movement and infiltration techniques. 13 155 634

• Disguise grants +5 Stealth and +5 Aura Concealment by exploiting others’ assumptions about his appearance. 2
• Eagle Eye identifies hidden enemies, tracks targets, detects ambushes, and assists navigation across unfamiliar terrain. 101 155 623
• Khaki Escape allows high-speed travel across terrain and through obstacles. 634
• Castling exchanges Bai Ye’s position with a perceived target, can pass through solid barriers, and bypasses Dimensional Anchor; it is limited to once per day and requires valid space for both positions. 179
• Polymorph allows him to transform into a raven for escape and reconnaissance. 775
• He can separate his soul into a spirit body, though it remains tethered to and cannot stray far from his physical body. 656

Crafting and Artifact Forging

Bai Ye is an accomplished craftsman who creates holy emblems and eventually forges a weapon from his own soul. 149 637 640

• Crafted a Dark Gold holy emblem from D32 steel, mithril, and silver; it increases energy-release Divine Arts such as Magic Cannon by 50%. 149
• Forged Tear of Dawn by severing his left arm in a spiritual process, turning his soul and experience into its material. 637 640
• Uses trigger-based divine arts on himself and his equipment as layered emergency defenses. 768
