Eugen (ユジェン, Yujen) is a Human featured in Nineteen Assassins. He is an associate of Cardinal.
Overview[]
Appearance[]
Eugen is a bald, tall man with sweaty, sallow skin. He tends to wear black suits and sunglasses. He has multiple scars on his face, particularly on his lower chin and left cheek. His eyes are brown, and his nose is atypically large. Eugen has rather long fingers and high cheek bones.
Personality[]
Eugen is a cold, no-nonsense individual. He serves Cardinal to the fullest extent, offering up little of his personality when conveying his boss's orders. He performs well, doing what is required of him, and does not interject his opinions on anything he's doing. He's harsh, straight-to-the-point, and unforgiving. He shows a moderate amount of empathy when talking to Charles. His conversation with the man may have been one of the few times a glimpse of his true personality's shown in Nineteen Assassins. Eugen has an unusually high-pitched voice.
History[]
Nineteen Assassins[]
In the third scene of chapter 3, the White Tigers met Silver, Glase, Eugen, Alabastian, and Charles on the Red Sea three miles north of Akki. Thereafter, the NRRA officers took them to the southern tip of the island, known as Demon's Point. After Zhajiang used his Denkoken on the demon, Glase and Eugen provided cover fire, though the Makyan easily parried the bullets away.
In the first scene of chapter 3, after Sugoro and his team defeated the Children of Chaos, capturing Violet and Takebashi, another sniper headshotted Sugoro and his entire entourage. At that moment, a bald man came out from behind a dumpster. He introduced himself as Eugen, saying he needed to take her to his boss. He said they were part of the New Red Ribbon Army. He knew about her helicopter capsule, which startled her. He promised to treat her leg if she went with him. She didn't want to. He raised a pistol at her, demanding that she come with him. He promised to promote her to the rank of commander in the new army. Unwillingly, Violet relented. Takebashi stirred, which intrigued Eugen.
In the second scene, Tien woke up early, going to Yoshitaro's to have tea. Four people were inside, which was more than usual. There was an old couple, Paik (who was eating ramen), and a bald man (Eugen, whom Tien did not know). Yoshitaro's apprentice served him his tea before moving on to Eugen (who needed a refill). Tien felt somewhat threatened by Eugen, wondering why a military man was in the tea shop and giving him so many looks. Eugen left soon afterward.
In the third scene of chapter 5, Charles had a dream where three bodhisattvas meditated in the shade of a fig tree. There was a demon peeking out from behind it, taking the form of his daughter Violet, which stressed him out. His master Preggu watched him, drinking tea, thinking how immature Charles was. The demon kept asking Charles to come to her, but he refused, thinking it was a trick, a trap, or something evil.
Charles woke up at that moment, seeing Glase, Silver, Eugen, and Cardinal before him. Cardinal was a man he hadn't seen in many years. His anxiety skyrocketed. Charles realized he was strapped to a chair in a windowless room. Glase asked if she could kill him to avenge Jared. Cardinal denied her, saying there were things he needed from Charles. Afterwards, Silver would decide what to do with him.
As his rage built, Charles struggled to maintain eternal compassion for all beings, a core tenet of Buddhism. Cardinal told him that he had captured Violet. She was in another room. He then began to interrogate Charles to see if he'd told King Furry or anyone else about him. Cardinal called him General Indigo, revealing Charles had once been a member of the Red Ribbon Army. Charles was incredulous. Cardinal threatened to kill Violet if he wasn't honest. Charles categorically denied that he'd ever told anyone anything about the Red Ribbon Army. He was furious that Cardinal had even thought he was capable of that.
Cardinal informed him that the Red Ribbon Army had fallen and he was planning on creating a New Red Ribbon Army to take its place. Thus, he was collecting all of the surviving officers to return them to their cause. Glase said they were going to once again attempt to collect the Dragon Balls and take over the world. Charles said he had retired before Commander Red had begun his quest for the Dragon Balls and that he remained retired. He declined to join the NRRA.
Cardinal whistled. The others joined him in leaving the room.
In the first scene of chapter 6, Violet and Carmichael ate breakfast inside their prison cells. Just then, the big metal doors opened. Cardinal, Silver, Glase, and Eugen entered. With them were two people bound by their wrists: Charles and Kyofune (whom Violet didn't recognize). She was overcome by negative emotion seeing her father, trying to ignore him as best she could. Eugen and Glase put Kyofune in a cell while Silver brought Charles to the center of the room. Cardinal wasted no time in asking Violet to join the New Red Ribbon Army. When she refused, Silver punched her father in the gut. She didn't expect to feel for him, but it was a visceral reaction. She begged them to stop hurting him. Silver pistol-whipped Charles, asking for Violet to bring an end to things, as he didn't want to do this. She didn't believe him yet refused to change her mind. He continued pummeling Charles. Charles looked to Violet, his watery blue eyes moving her deeply.
She broke, falling in line, telling Cardinal she'd join Silver in his search for Copper. Cardinal informed her that she'd be accompanying Glase and Silver to Seikishi City (a medium-sized town south of West City) to meet with the Morizakura-gumi yakuza group. Since the Chàoxing Gon was leaderless, they could no longer be relied upon to protect Cardinal's shipping routes through Diablo Desert. He needed a new gang to provide muscle. If she behaved, he would allow her to join Silver's search for General Copper afterward. Violet shouted that Eugen had killed Sugoro while she had killed a man in a coma. What he had done was worse. And Violet was justified in what she'd done, as Mazuchiru had killed her boyfriend Nathaniel.
Glase let her out of her cell, warning her not to try anything. Cardinal ordered Eugen to bring Carmichael out of his cell too. He did so, pushing him out with a pistol against the man's back. Cardinal asked Violet to choose one of the other prisoners to live, as he was only willing to house one of them in a cell. In disbelief, Violet cried out, asking him to reconsider by putting them in the same cell. She seethed, thinking to herself how badly she wanted to murder Cardinal. The man would do no such thing. She had to make a choice then and there.
Carmichael fell against Charles for some reason, though Eugen quickly pulled him away. Cardinal warned her that if she didn't make a decision, he'd kill both prisoners. Cardinal prepared to shoot Charles when Violet begged him to kill one of the other prisoners instead. Cardinal had use for them still. He had no use for Charles and Carmichael going forward. Realizing she had to make a decision, Violet reluctantly nodded to Carmichael, whose face had grown pale with fear. He was hurt by Violet choosing him. In the next moment, Cardinal shot him in the face.
Cardinal asked her to supply Eugen with the location of the remaining Children of Chaos. If she didn't, he'd kill Charles too. Unwillingly, she did so. She and her father had a brief moment of recognition, though she couldn't talk to him before she was ushered out of the room, thinking to herself how it had been his fault that she had joined the Red Ribbon Army. He'd abandoned her soon afterward, and for that, she had never forgiven him.
Glase pushed her to the door. It was time to visit the Morizakura-gumi. Violet swore to herself that she'd kill them all.
In the second scene, Eugen shoved Charles back in his cell. He had a short exchange with Cardinal before the man left, neither masking their hate for the other. Cardinal told him he had to trust in Violet not to screw up or else he'd die as a consequence. Cardinal left, Charles thinking to himself that he wanted nothing more than to kill him regardless of how that thought aligned with Buddhism.
Buddhism was a failure of a religion, in his mind, if it thought it wrong for evil people such as Cardinal to be punished. Eugen cleaned up Carmichael's body and blood. Charles fingered the capsule in his hand that Carmichael had given him in the previous scene when he had fallen against him. He didn't know what was inside, checking it. There was bubble gum in there. Charles realized it was an explosive, as Violet had used this stuff as long as she'd been in the Red Ribbon Army.
Charles drifted off to sleep, dreaming of his daughter. He was awoken sometime later as Eugen brought him lunch. Charles popped the gum in his mouth, blowing a bubble in front of Eugen. Eugen was incensed, as outside contraband was strictly forbidden. He opened the cell, telling Charles not to try anything or he'd shoot him. As soon as he entered the cell, Charles spit the gum onto his head. Recoiling in disgust, Eugen pulled it off, but it exploded before he realized, killing him instantly.
