[Ranked 83rd: Suzuka Dairenji]
[Race: Human]
[Strength: Superior]
[Introduction: The current head of the Shinto Dairenji family, one of the Twelve Divine Generals of the Onmyodo Hall, possessing top-tier Onmyodo talent.]
[Ranking Reward: Intermediate Superpower Development]
……
"Have you noticed that many of the people listed on the [Transcendent Ranking] are also listed on the [Immortal Beauty Ranking]?"
"The Transcendent Ranking focuses on strength, while the Beauty Ranking, although it focuses on appearance, also considers ability, status, and fortune."
"……makes sense."
"These are heirs of either exorcism families or Yin-Yang families. They are not only good-looking, but their abilities, status, and fortune are also far beyond those of ordinary people. It is only natural that they can be on both lists."
"..."
"I'm rather curious about the amazing identities of the goddesses ranked in the top thirty of the [Fairy Beauty Ranking]. Could they all be real goddesses?"
It wasn't just one person who was curious about this; in any case, no one would believe that the goddesses in the top 30 of the "Fairy Beauty Ranking" were all ordinary people.
Although there is no definitive conclusion yet, everyone agrees in their hearts that an ordinary person might be able to climb into the bottom fifty of the "Fairy Beauty Ranking" based on their looks, but they will definitely not be able to enter the top thirty. After all, the looks of the top thirty on the "Fairy Beauty Ranking" have almost reached the limit of aesthetic standards, and beyond that limit, the evaluation should be based on three aspects: ability, status, and fortune.
Ordinary people have absolutely no advantage in these three aspects.

[Ranked 81st: Kasaiin Yura]
[Race: Human]
[Strength: Intermediate]
[Introduction: The successor to the head of the Keikain sect, the next Hidemoto, capable of using Keikain's strongest shikigami, [Hakugun], possessing top-tier Onmyodo talent and top-tier shikigami control talent]
[Ranking Reward: Intermediate-Level Superpower Development]
……
[Ranked 79th: Kasakain Mami Ryu]
[Race: Human]
[Strength: Superior]
[Introduction: An Onmyoji from the Keikain branch family, capable of wielding extremely powerful lightning-type shikigami, possessing top-tier Onmyodo talent.]
[Ranking Reward: Advanced-Level Superpower Development]
……
[Ranked 79th: Hanakain Akifusa]
[Race: Human]
[Strength: Superior]
[Introduction: A branch of the Kakeru-in family, belonging to the Eighty Schools of Onmyoji, skilled in crafting demon swords, she forged her first demon sword at the age of three. She wields the demon sword - the Eighty School Demon Spear - Rider's Glory, possessing top-tier Onmyodo talent and demon sword forging skills.]
[Ranking Reward: Advanced-Level Superpower Development]
……
The inclusion of three members of the Kakaiin clan on the list greatly pleased the contemporary Kakaiin Hidemoto.
“Especially Yuluo, who is only at the intermediate level now, once her strength reaches the upper level, her ranking on the [Transcendent Ranking] will definitely far surpass that of Qiufang and others.”
A glint of light flashed in the aged eyes of the contemporary Hanakain Hideyuki.
Yura's mastery of [Breaking Army] is key to resealing Hagoromo Gitsune. Moreover, the Yin-Yang Hall and other Yin-Yang families may not stand idly by and watch their Kakeruin clan rise again.
"Call Yuluo over; I have something to tell her."
"This is what the contemporary Kakaiin Hidemoto said to the Onmyoji guarding outside."
"Yes, master!"
Just as contemporary Hidemoto Hanakain had imagined, the outside world, seeing the younger generation of the Hanakain clan continuously making it onto the list, displaying an overwhelming momentum over the Yin-Yang Hall and other Yin-Yang families, couldn't help but ponder in their hearts.
Now, the once-powerful throne of Onmyōdō, Tsuchimikado, has fallen into decline.
They do not want to see Kasakain become another throne, as this would affect their own fundamental interests.
Assassination is out of the question; such an act would be far too risky, and exposure would lead to condemnation from the entire Onmyodo. However, interfering with and suppressing the growth of the younger generation in the Kakeruin clan is certainly feasible…
……
"Why is it that even though Dairenji Suzuka's strength is at the upper level, she was still outclassed by Keikain Yura?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha was slightly puzzled.
“Didn’t the [Dimensional Ranking] say before that the [Transcendent Ranking] not only looks at strength, but also talent? And the reason why Suzuka Dairenji was able to become one of the Twelve Divine Generals at such a young age and possess superior strength is that she has obviously used up a large part of her potential and talent in advance.”
"And it is no exaggeration to say that Kasaiin Yura, who can control [Hakugun], is the most talented in the contemporary Onmyodo. You should know that the purpose of the [Hakugun] shikigami is to amplify the user's talent and spiritual power to the extreme."
Kanzaki Teru explained.
"The shikigami [Hagun] is said to be the one that Keikain Hidemoto used to seal the great yokai Hagoromo Gitsune five hundred years ago."
Kagura Tsuchimiya and Yomi Isayama have some understanding of the shikigami [Po Jun].
……
A small, green figure was projected onto the [Transcendent Ranking], one eye glowing red, the other black, possessing an extremely alluring charm.
[Ranked 71st: Takatsuki Sen]
[Race: Ghoul]
[Strength: Superior]
[Introduction: An extremely rare half-ghoul with both human and human blood. Her real name is Eto Yoshimura, the leader of the Aogiri Tree organization, and the One-Eyed King who stands at the pinnacle of ghouls.]
[Ranking Reward: Advanced Supernatural Ability Development]
……
"Hey, I really don't want you to be on the list too."
Upon seeing his daughter appear on the [Transcendent Ranking], Yoshimura Kōzen couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"Another person listed on both the [Immortal Beauty Ranking] and the [Transcendent Ranking], and a ghoul at that, the One-Eyed King. What an imposing name."
"...Takatsuki Sen, I remember her as a well-known writer."
"That's right, I'm a fan of his, a ghoul author. This combination is actually quite exciting. Now that I think about how I actually had close contact with the King of Ghouls, I get a little chills!"
"..."
"The One-Eyed King, it's hard to imagine that such a monster would be active in front of the public as a writer. What are the higher-ups in Japan doing?"
"At the pinnacle of ghouls, the number of people they have eaten is probably incalculable. After all, I've heard that the only way for ghouls to become stronger and survive is to eat other people or their own kind."
"...Cannibalism among their own kind, what a cruel race!"
"..."
ccg——
"One-Eyed King, your tail has finally been revealed."
With a full head of white hair and a slightly manic expression, Mado Kureo had been searching for the One-Eyed King for far too long, and this time he had finally caught him by the tail.
"【Super Disaster Countermeasures Room】, Onmyo Hall... These people can protect ghouls like the antique shop that don't pose a significant threat, but they can't protect the One-Eyed King."
“Let’s go, Amon-kun. I just investigated. That bastard happened to have a book club meeting in Tokyo today. Even though it’s over now, she probably hasn’t escaped Tokyo yet.”
After saying that, Mado Kureo called to his partner, Amon Koutarou, and they headed outside.
"Yes, Mado-senpai."
Amon Kotaro followed closely behind Mado Kureo and left the CCG.
Not long after——
The CCG also mobilized its entire force, with all its top special investigators deployed, their target being the One-Eyed King, Takatsuki Sen.

[Ranked 70th: Ikaruga Shimon]
[Race: Human]
[Strength: Superior]
[Introduction: A branch family of the Ikaruga clan. The Vermilion Bird, one of the Twelve Heavenly Generals of Yin and Yang, possesses top-tier Yin-Yang Dao talent.]
[Ranking Reward: Advanced Supernatural Ability Development]
……
[Ranked 68th: Rint Seran?]
[Race: Human]
[Strength: Superior]
[Introduction: A top exorcist affiliated with the church, a warrior bred using the genetic material of the hero Siegfried...]
[Ranking Reward: Top-Tier Superpower Development]
……
Onmyo Academy, Onmyo Hall, Super Disaster Countermeasures Office, Hanakain, Tsuchimikado, Onmyo Association, and the seemingly 'ordinary' church.
The continuous exposure of various supernatural organizations has broadened the horizons of many ordinary people. They never imagined that so many supernatural organizations were hidden among humans, and that no clues had been found before. It seems that the country's higher-ups intentionally concealed them.
