Rise of the Blood Demon
In the shadowed world of murim, where the Demonic cult power is sharpened like blades and loyalty is thinner than silk, betrayal is inevitable.
The once Blood Demon Faction, a fraction under the demonic cult. One which power are on another scale, they thrived under the leadership of the Blood Demon Master, a man whose power rivaled even the Court’s leader, a man whose strength was so formidable that even the cult leader respected.
But envy and fear twisted old friendships into daggers. Betrayed, framed for crimes he neither committed nor was he aware of, poisoned by the very brother he trusted, the master was forced into a corner. To spare his last disciple and only son— a boy who hasn't even grown hairs down there— he bargained his life away, dying a wretched death as his faction was erased from history.
That disciple was Hyeolmu, his blood, his family, and the remnant of the blood demon faction
Too young to grasp the full depth of the treachery, Hyeolmu watched his master fall and his brothers slaughtered with despair all over his face. Spared by a cruel oath, he was cast into prison, then sold into slavery to foreign lands — a caged beast with bloodied chains. Years passed. His hatred festered, his sorrow hardened, and the boy who once wept in despair began to carve himself into something else.
A weapon.
This is the story of the last heir of the Blood Demon Faction. The tale of a slave who will claw his way back from the pits of despair, a man forged from betrayal and sharpened by vengeance.
The Demonic Court buried the Blood Demon once.
Now, they will learn what it means when blood becomes thicker than power.
