Chapter 21: Awakening the War God
The battlefield was drenched in blood. The cries of dying men and monsters shook the earth, while smoke and fire devoured the horizon.
Shin stood at the center of it all, his dagger dripping blackened blood, his eyes cold. He had become death incarnate, cutting down monsters by the thousands.
Every slash, every strike, every pulse of Death Energy carved through the endless tide of beasts.

The system notifications blurred into one endless stream. His body was soaked in gore, but his aura grew heavier, denser, unshakable.

The Peak Approaches
As he severed the head of a massive werewolf king, a thunderous chime rang in his ears.
Ding!
「 Host has reached the Peak of Qi Refraining Realm 」
Shin froze mid-step, his entire body trembling. His meridians roared like rivers bursting their banks. His dantian surged with energy, swelling beyond control.
The system's voice thundered:
Ding!
「 Host Foundation is improving infinitely 」
「 Foundation Tier: Extreme 」
The ground beneath him cracked. The air trembled. Even the monsters backed away, sensing something terrifying.
Then, with an explosion of blinding light—
Ding!
「 Congratulations! Host has broken through to the 1st Level of Foundation Establishment Realm 」
Shin's aura erupted skyward, tearing through the clouds.

The War God Form
But the system wasn't finished.
Ding!
「 Congratulations, Host. Due to slaughtering thousands of monsters, new Transformation unlocked — War God Form 」
Shin's body shook as a flood of knowledge poured into his mind—millions of battles, endless weapons, countless forms of combat.
Description:
All weapon mastery becomes instinctive.
Weapons feel like extensions of your body.
Strength increases drastically.
In Max War God Form, Host can fight and kill enemies an entire realm above.
War God Form (Level 1) — Progress: 1 / 10,000
Shin's hand reached out unconsciously. From the battlefield, a fallen spear trembled, then flew into his grip as if obeying its master.
He spun it once—effortless, natural. It was as if he had wielded it for centuries.
A goblin general charged him. Shin's spear flashed. One strike—clean, perfect—pierced its skull.
Another werewolf lunged. Shin pivoted smoothly, his dagger now in his other hand. The blade danced, severing the beast's throat.
Swords, spears, daggers, bows, axes… every weapon he touched obeyed him as though they were extensions of his flesh.

The World Shakes
Monsters froze, their instincts screaming in terror.
Shin's eyes glowed faintly, his aura radiating both Life and Death, now fused with the War God's killing intent.
He raised his voice, low but cold:
> "If the world itself falls into chaos… then I'll become the War God who cuts it down."
And with that, he stepped forward.
Wherever he moved, only corpses remained.
The age of monsters had just begun—
But so had the rise of the War God.
