It is said that a man is born from rage and through that rage a new lord is made, in such similar way this was true about lionheart.
Yet this wasn't known, his existence was already known by high ranking saints though they didn't know what he looked like but they knew a new demon lord was being born and this was already enough for them to search for him.
Thousands of saints, low and high ranking came together and searched for his existence yet this was a failure.
Somewhere in the east Palace.
My lord we have tried to look for him, we have even went far as the west yet we are unable to trace him.
A man who was wearing a golden dragon silk cloth was furious, he took a long breath and said, if he is given more time, he will certainly become threat to humanity. We can't allow that, a new demon lord existence itself is near future bloodshed and this can't be allowed.
The young man who is around the sage of 28, bowed and said, my lord you speak the truth yet we are trying yet have failed to locate him. Last time we felt that dark demonic energy was 1 year ago yet now we can't find a trace of it even if tried.
The man who sat on the golden throne yelled, Do you have any idea how strong he must of gotten?, if we had located him faster a year ago we could've killed him yet now it would be harder to kill that man knowing that demonic energy grows without any limit.
Another saint who was high ranking came running and yelled with distress, my lord we found a cave and saints that went there never returned. My lord we might have possibly located the new demon lord.
The man who sat on throne sat up and said with the cold eyes, gather all the high ranking saints and be ready to fight.
All the saints that was present there said unison, YES MY LORD.
somewhere in the forest of lin, a man with long hair sat on pile of Corpses, his eyes was dark with no emotions. He sat there for hours waiting and not running away. He knew that he had been located yet he wasn't afraid.
He knew that he wouldn't be able to fight all the high ranking saints but he will kill some before using his secret card.
His senses grew in such way that he can hear miles away and he heard footsteps near the cave, he knew they were near yet he stayed unbothred and his eyes showed no fear.
He stayed in the cave for a whole year, learning and mastering skills and moving through stages of dark demonic path. Through this his emotion had become numb to a certain point he feels no remorse.
The footsteps became louder, they were before entrance of the library yet he sat not even standing.
He counted with a deep voice
One-Two-Three
Boom, the whole entrance door was destroyed and lo behold high ranking saints and their king was before him.
Eyes blazed each other, hate towards lionheart was there. Yet none of them made a single move. Still and no movement.
We saw the demon lord , he sat on pile of Corpses of saints, his eyes was cold, his hair was covered in blood and he held a sword. That sword was the demonic sword known in the legends.
His eyes looked at us and chills went through our spine, his eyes was piercing through each one of us yet he was unbothred.
Our king looked at him and said with angry, you demon how can you kill these saints?.
The demon lord smiled without any remorse and said with a voice that can give endless nightmares, they attacked me so I simply killed them.
Lionheart looked at these men and laughed, you gonna stand there or will you attack. In that moment hundreds of high ranking saints surrounded lionheart yet he was unbothred.
In that moment lionheart stood up, his height alone was terrifying. Before this he was only 6 feet but later through his intense dark demonic energy he grew to almost 10 feet tall.
A high ranking saints quietly went behind him yet in a instant lionheart grabbed his head and crushed it. The whole head exploded and this was terrible sight .
Enraged All the high ranking saints attacked, movement swift and fast yet ineffective. Level gap between saints and lionheart was huge.
My lord our men are dying one by one, please attack that demon and get revenge for our lost brothers.
The king of saints of west appeared in front of lionheart and kicked him far to point which lionheart couldn't even see.
Lionheart smiled and quickly stood up, he grabbed his sword and disappeared and reappeared before the saint king of east but saint king was also fast and blocked it.
Countless strikes was exchanged yet none effective, lionheart grabbed his leg and threw him across the cave. His strength was great making the king of east bleed which was impressive.
Lionheart looked at the king of East, you stopped all my attacks but unable to stop this. I am proud of how far I came.
My life was full of struggle yet this was my point, a line created by this cruel world turning me into a demon,how pitiful.
The king of west looked at the man that was standing upright and said, you truly are a demon. King of east in that moment gathered his energy into a single point of sword .
Demon lord looked at this and said, now you want to use energy, so be it . Be prepared to withstand my demonic energy.
Lionheart also gathered his demonic energy and with his left hand he gathered snapped his finger.
Both light and dark energy fought but this was all to vain, lionheart disappeared without any trace.
The whole cave was blown away and all the books that was there burned away, this was the plan that lionheart made. He knew these books was valuable yet he was unwilling to share or let them study them, knowing they can find weaknesses.
As smoke cleared, the king of east was left unconscious, not dead but through this incident The whole world knew the power of the demon lord.
Fear spread and news of demon lord arrival became well known in every corner of the world, the fact that he defeated the king of east was well known by all the high ranking saints, kings and warlords knew this incident.
Through this The whole world was in distress and was in absolutely chaos.
