Gu Jie, alias Jiedo Heigu, had kept an eye on Japan for many years,
watching carefully for his opportunity.
The anti-magic organization that he acted as leader of, "Blanche", had
fabricated the organization "Egalite" within the First High School, to
cause an uproar about a revolution.
In the previous year's Nine Schools Competition, Gu Jie used the "No
Head Dragon", an international crime syndicate created with the support
of Richard Sun, to send "Generators", living weapons that used the
bodies of magicians, to the competition grounds. (Furthermore, he also
provided dangerous magical supplementation devices known as 'Sorcery
Boosters', which amplified the destructive power of magic)
Gu Jie's last disciple, Zhou Gongjin, provided guidance to the Great
Asian Union Demolition Squadron, responsible for the Yokohama
Disturbance, and he also caused the previous year's "Parasite Doll"
incident at the Nine Schools Competition, causing chaos.
Finally, the "puppet terror" at this year's family conference grounds was
brought about by corpse-manipulation magi Jie's specialty.
All this for the purpose of revenge against the Yotsuba Family, and the
Japanese magical world. But the motives for such actions were not yet
clear, even to himself. The Kunlunfang Institute had been hostile
towards Gu Jie as a result of a difference in thinking between ancient
magic and modern magic, and the Yotsuba Family had pursued the
Institute until its destruction. The Yotsuba Family should have instead
been the "enemy of his enemy", but... Perhaps it was because of his
patriotism, or perhaps it was because he bore an unreasonable grudge at
having the target of his revenge stolen away from him... As assessed by
Zhou Gongjin while he was alive, the only thing that could be known for
sure was that Gu Jie's mental state was delusionally fanatical, like that of
a vengeful spirit.
