Pale Red Moon: My Daily Grind at the Youling Bureau

【Spiritual Qi Revival】【A slow burn, so give it time to build】【No System】【Badger-like protagonist】【No saintly do-gooding, starting with me】【Clever protagonist】【Turns dark midway】 In the age before civilization, a world war broke out. In its later stages, some countries used biological weapons again and again, devastating the planet's environment. In an act of self-preservation, the planet gave rise to species that should never have existed. These creatures fed on humanity. Although humans initially gained the upper hand with their advanced firepower, the creatures suddenly developed strange abilities and gradually became humanity's natural enemies. Yet humanity's indomitable spirit prevailed. After thousands of years of suppression, these creatures that should never have existed were subdued. Still, some evil entities that sought to break their seals, along with others that had never been fully eradicated, remained in the world. After enduring this chaos for a long time, humans began to awaken abilities of their own. Powerful clans and ordinary people alike rapidly formed factions, organizing themselves to hunt down these evil entities. The authorities soon took notice. Since their goals aligned, the government used these people as a model to swiftly establish an organization called the Youxun Bureau. “Come down here and fight me one-on-one if you've got the guts!”… “I'm a villain now. Why the hell should I care about fighting fair?”… “Go home? Not a chance.”… “Hey! Help! The old man is going to sacrifice me for the greater good…” “This is amazing! How come you're the only one who can't awaken an ability?” Against this backdrop, a group of people bound by fate rose to prominence. After the Spiritual Qi Revival, those who had once hidden in the darkness stepped into the spotlight too.
