Synopsis
In the world of Hades’ Legacy, there exists an ancient tradition: every child receives, at the age of sixteen, the power of a supernatural being—either a demon or an angel. These beings grant their chosen ones enormous abilities, ranging from elemental magic to enhanced physical feats. This power determines a person’s status and their position in society. The strongest and most prestigious gifts originate from the ancient and legendary entities: the Archangels and the Demon Lords. Humans live within a constant divide—between those blessed by angels or demons and those left powerless. The stronger warriors are valued by the rulers of these beings and are deployed for special missions. Yet there is also a darker side: some people become “Demon Hosts,” able to activate their powers only through murder and acts of destruction.

Chapter 1 - Act 0 – Character Introduction

Main Character

Name: Kaito Arima

Age: 18

Origin: He comes from a small, remote village, socially located in the middle hierarchy. A loner who spent the past two years of his life being bullied and mocked by his classmates. His parents, both endowed with superhuman power, died when he was a child.

Appearance: Kaito appears ordinary, unremarkable: black hair, dark eyes. He wears simple, inconspicuous clothes. But once he receives the power of Hades, his appearance transforms—his eyes glow with a cold, blood‑red light, and a threatening shadow clings about his body, symbolizing the presence of a god.

Backstory:

As a child, Kaito was cheerful and active. But when he turned sixteen, he had still not received any "power," making him an outcast. People in town—especially his classmates—laughed at and excluded him. He was considered "worthless" because he had no supernatural ability, while most others had already received either demonic or angelic power at sixteen. The bullying worsened after his parents died, leaving him a loner in a world that despised him.

At eighteen, the unimaginable happens: Kaito, who had never possessed any gift, is suddenly favored by the gods themselves. But not with any ordinary power—he becomes the heir of Hades, god of the Underworld and ruler of the dead. This power is not only exceedingly strong, but also laced with a dark, bloody, and destructive nature. Hades' dominion over death makes Kaito a destroyer, burdened with a curse none other could bear: the ability to end life itself and raise the dead.

Yet such immense power comes with a price—not only is Kaito met with fear and horror from others, but his newly‑acquired ability is coveted by demons and other gods alike. And Kaito himself struggles to maintain control over it.
