Everyone gets old and dies eventually. How can I boast about having once been unrivaled? I'm not going to bother competing with those masters. I'm going to take care of my health and If I outlive them, wouldn't that make me the Supreme Master? What's the use of even using the term "the Supreme Master"? It's futile anyway. If I meet a master stronger than me in my travels and we discuss martial arts...It would be a blessing and a joy.
Lee Jaha, also known as the Mad Demon, is the central protagonist of the series Return of the Crazy Demon. Having dreamt about the God of Martial Arts, Jaha fell off a cliff while running from the Demonic Cult after stealing and swallowing the Jade of Heaven. He awakens from the fall to find himself back in his 20s.
Appearance[]
This babyface was sent straight from the Heavens.
Jaha on his handsomeness.
Lee Jaha has an astonishing appearance, canonically attractive man with long black hair that he often ties into a high ponytail (The tie being that of a peachy-red ribbon.) He has a muscular physique that also highlights his tall height and a pale white skin-tone, his eyes being that of a shade of black while a crimson red underneath, but when furious or mad his eyes become a rage of red that emits a hot-pink glow.
His sense of clothing is diverse, but he is often seen wearing a black rich robe combined with white flowy pants that allows him to perform more comfortably.
Personality[]
There are days I don't feel a single emotion, even after I've killed people in droves...and other days, I want to avoid killing so recklessly. Today is one of those days. I'm not sure why...but I wouldn't be called the Mad Demon if I was predictable.
At his core, Jaha is an erratic yet kindhearted man who expresses his thoughts freely, whether through words or actions. Once diagnosed as bipolar by Moyong, he openly describes himself as utterly insane, with mood swings that reflect his unpredictable nature. Prone to sudden shifts in temperament, he can be both moody and violent, yet he remains disturbingly self-aware of his volatility, capable of flying into a rage over the slightest annoyance.
This unpredictability is evident throughout his adventures in the murim. Despite his violent tendencies, Jaha never misses an opportunity to mock, berate, or belittle those around him—whether allies or enemies. His sharp tongue often serves as both a weapon and a twisted form of amusement, as he mixes sadistic humor with false camaraderie before ultimately crushing those who stand in his way.
Quotes[]
I've already killed so many people today. If I start an ordinary day with killing someone...I certainly shouldn't end it with killing some too.
