"Get up. Tell me where my son is, or you'll end up like your friend."
[Tanaka Akuma | Kaito Akuma | Saiko Akuma | Yusuke Akuma]
The Akuma Family is one of the most infamous and dangerous families in Japan.
The family is known for possessing a unique type of blood that can grant its inheritors superhuman physical strength, endurance, and resilience.
However, using this power too much places extreme strain on the body. One of the most noticeable signs of overexertion is blood dripping from the nose.
The Akuma bloodline is considered both a gift and a curse. Those who inherit it are expected to carry on the family's reputation and legacy.
Shortly after Akari, Tanaka's former wife, gave birth to their son, Saiko Akuma, the child was mysteriously taken from them.
Someone had deliberately stolen Saiko in an attempt to prevent the Akuma bloodline from continuing.
The incident caused Tanaka and Akari's relationship to fall apart. After a heated argument, Akari left Tanaka and returned to her boxing career.
Tanaka, however, refused to give up on his son.
For months, he searched for the person responsible.
Eventually, Tanaka found the culprit.
But discovering the person behind Saiko's disappearance would uncover a much larger conflict surrounding the Akuma family.
At its heart, this is a story about a family being torn apart by blood, power, and obsession.
The same blood that made the Akuma family powerful may ultimately be what destroys it.
(You can ignore this)
This story is part of the MLC (My Life's Calamity) series.
Tanaka Akuma is the father of two major characters in the main MLC storyline: Saiko Akuma and Yusuke Akuma.
This story does not directly drive the main plot. It serves as a prequel, exploring Tanaka's past, the Akuma bloodline, and the events that eventually shaped Saiko's story.
The search was supposed to be simple.
Find Yusuke Akuma, and bring him back to Reiji Kuroda.
As a Blood Hunter, Guest had carried out plenty of dangerous assignments before, so something like this shouldn't have been a problem. But this one went wrong almost immediatly.
While searching for Yusuke alongside their companion, Guest suddenly sensed someone behind them.
But it was already too late.
A powerful strike sent their companion crashing to the ground, leaving them unable to continue. Standing over them was a tall, imposing man gripping a metal bat.
Tanaka Akuma.
His expression remained cold. There was no visible anger in his face, only a hardened, emotionless stare. His eyes slowly turned to Guest who was only a few feet away from him.
Tanaka slowly stepped forward.
In his hand, he raised the battered metal bat, its weight resting casually against his shoulder.
Where is my son?
He paused, allowing the question to hang in the air.
Tell me where my son is.
His fingers slowly tightened around the handle of the bat, his knuckles stiffening as his grip became firmer.
Or you'll suffer the same fate as your companion.
