Destruction, Chaos, Ruins.
This was what was before me.
I stood on a high mountain, my hands covered in blood, not of my own but of that of millions of unknown creatures. Their corpses littered the ground and the entire mountain, a horrible scene to behold.
"What have I become?"I asked myself, looking at the blood I had shed.
A murderer, a killer. No, this wasn't it.
A DEVIL!
This was what I had become, pleasures running through my blood as I saw the massacre I had caused.
Craziness was my other name.
The excitement, the joy, and the enjoyment, all felt as if I was in the ninth heaven.

Year 3000, Planet Earth.
An apocalypse descended; the entire world descended into chaos, an unknown energy descended from nowhere, bringing the world into chaos.
Creatures on Earth trembled before this unknown energy; before they knew it, animals and inanimate objects were transformed into fearsome and devilish creatures.
Who called themselves DEVILS?
Their race became diverse, and humanity was like an ant before an elephant, trampled to death, while their flesh became food for their enjoyment and pleasure.
Within a few days, only ten percent of the human population remained, still battling the devils.
However, in the face of extinction, human adaptability and intelligence kicked in; they researched ways and methods to counterattack the Devils and reclaim their homeland.
The first method was tried: injecting the unknown energy into humans, which led to failure as the human body couldn't contain and store the unknown energy.
Later on, an unknown ore was found mysteriously; it shined like stars, hiding the deepest mysteries of the world. To their surprise, they found out that this unknown metal can absorb the unknown energy.
With human wisdom, they quickly devised a way that the unknown ore would be beneficial to them.
Within a few months, they were able to derive a way to make use of the ore to their maximum benefit.
Transforming the ore into an ordinary sword, the ordinary sword transforms and possesses power and element based on the talent of its host, bearing their true name, able to battle, damage, and kill the Devils.
The benefits do not stop there, as it produces an unknown spirit that looks like a human, capable of fighting on their own, and through the ore, humanity can use it to cultivate the unknown energy, which they later called Originat—the origin of All Things.
Cultivations methods were created, methods to unearth and know their talent came about, and also the weapons created, are tied to their host in life and death. This was the precaution done by humans…
With this advantage, the humans were able to counterattack the devils, reclaiming their lands. However, the devils didn't expect this sudden turn.
Humanity reclaimed fifty percent of their lands. This took 100 years before the Great War began..
They fought fiercely, the resentment they had held in their hearts watching their loved ones die and be massacred, especially the older generation.This resentment and rage fueled the power in their sword.
Clash between two different races, power against power, skill against skill.
The battle was fought for seven days and nights, with humanity coming out victorious, but with heavy losses.
Numerous deaths and 90% of those that remained were injured, but even with this, the devils weren't completely killed.
The humans during that time made a move, creating buildings used to seal the devils, which later became a dungeon that has its world inside, creating levels for it and preparing it for the future generations.
As time went by, the survivors discovered that this special unknown ore covered the whole of Earth. Using their technology, they used it to convert it into energy useful for them,
The layout covered the entire Earth-like formation, absorbing the power in the ore, releasing it to the air.
They called the energy, Originat.
10 years later, another ore was found, but it had the opposite effect, and they found that it was absorbing the blue energy, converting it into devilish energy. Without wasting much time, they quickly disposed of it before it brought disaster to humanity.
2000 years later, Earth has regained its former splendor, even more grandeur than the Earth before the Apocalypse. Also, technology has advanced greatly more than before.
But the Devils weren't still all exterminated.

YEAR 5000, Earth.
In a gigantic city, skyscrapers were numerous, electricity was 24/7, and everywhere had an aura of elegance.
In the nighttime, in one of the parts of the city, chaos was spreading, with humans running for their lives ROAR!
A gigantic lion, spanning 7 meters in length and 4 meters in height, emitted a black aura that sent chills down one's spine. The energy, and aura damaged everywhere, as if what they wanted was destruction.
It had two horns, glowing with a black aura, and an immense aura was released from it. Its black hair, bone wings sprouting from its back.
"Lion Devil has been detected; proceeding with the extermination of the devil."A group of humans in combat suits, a total of ten, surrounded the Lion Devil and put a halt to the chaos it was causing.
"Humans!" The Lion Devil roared, its roar laced with hatred and darkness.
It didn't waste time pouncing on the humans before it, sending them flying into the air, their bodies hitting buildings.
Not far from them, a human with golden hair and eyes, both having tips of red, looking like flames, watched the battle.
He yawned, "It seems that it's going to take them a lot of time to deal with that cat, and I don't have the luxury of time."
As he said, his figure disappeared, and the next moment, he appeared before the Lion Devil that wanted to use this opportunity to kill humans.
With the fist of the young man, he sent the Lion Devil flying, its body hurled through the air, blood dripping from where it was punched.
The Lion Devil felt scared for a moment, looking at the new figure before it; an unmatched aura of energy was released from him.
"Hey, little cat. Would you mind killing yourself? I don't want to stain my hands for now." The golden-haired young man grinned, too lazy to kill the Lion Devil.
The ten humans watched the young man, shook their heads, not for the young man but for the Lion Devil.
When the Lion Devil heard this, and knew what the young man implied, its anger rose with immense devilish energy released from it.
"How dare you, human, command me to commit suicide?" It felt humiliated, and even though it felt that the young man's strength was stronger than its own, that doesn't mean its pride would make it admit defeat easily.
ROAR!
The Lion Devil roared, its size increased by twice, and the same with its strength, as it burned its bloodline.
Charging at the young man, coating its claw with devilish energy, aiming to claim the young man's life.
The young man watched all of this, his eyes sparked with excitement, happy at the sudden surge and increase of the Lion Devil.
Looking at the charge of the Lion Devil, the young man stretched his hands forward, catching the gigantic claws of the Lion Devil, halting its charge.
As the young man did this, disappointment flickered in his eyes, while the Lion Devil's heart was filled with fear.
"Still weak. Even after burning your bloodline, your strength just amounts to this. So boring," the young man said in a disappointed voice.
The next moment, his entire body burned in a red flame, but his clothes were unharmed, the fire looking like a source of light.
The next second, the flame spread to the Lion Devil, through the claw that the young man was holding.
No scream, no shout, only its ashes that remained.
