Chapter 1 - Blood That Doesn’t Dry

Scene1: Town of Divine Land

 A silent mountain town lay shrouded in thick fog, forgotten by time and even the most detailed maps. Life moved slowly here— children played with wooden toys, a distant bell chimed softly, and towns folk carried on with routine in difference. But that peace fractured in an instant. The birds stopped singing. The wind stilled. The air became heavy.

From the town's edge, a cloaked figure emerged. His steps were unnaturally graceful, each one landing with purpose. His cloak, soaked in crimson, trailed behind him like a bleeding shadow. His glowing, fairy-blue eyes held a terrifying contradiction—beauty laced with darkness. He was not merely a visitor; he was a harbinger.

People froze in place. Some halted on their way to work, others emerged from their homes to witness the unexplainable. All eyes were fixed on him—fear, curiosity, and dread swirling in the silence. The figure did not speak. He merely raised one gloved hand as if commanding the sky itself.

"Eternal Domain: Blood Rain,"*Raven whispered coldly.*

Scene2: Blessing

In a heartbeat, a vast sphere enclosed the entire town. The sky above twisted into unnatural shapes, casting a red hue that blanketed the landscape. Rain began to fall—but it wasn't water. It was blood. The droplets steamed upon contact with the ground, yet they strangely healed those they touched.

For a brief, confused moment, the town's people felt as if they were experiencing a miracle. A blessing of God.

Everyone was happily enjoying the moment. Bird started singing again. Children came out of their house. They started dancing jumping and playing in the rain. Old people started to feel their young time.

Everyone bowed their head. Raven appeared as their God. They folded their hands, as if praying to him, worshipping him.

"But there's no such God... roaming around spreading his blessing to his children. He always wanted them to grow by themselves... On their own."*narrator voice.*

Scene3: The Massacre

"This isn't a rain of blessing. He is not a God... It's a sacrifice, a devil's bloodlust,"*the narrator declared, as Raven's eyes closed, drew his sword in silence.*

Then came the slaughter. In a flash of motion too swift to follow, Raven cut down everyone. His blade showed no mercy, no hesitation. When the corpses fell to the ground, the blood rain revived them—only for Raven to slay them again. Over and over. Men, women, children, the elderly—none were spared. The only sound that filled the red-tinged air was screaming.

"His rain doesn't end life. It was bloody a monster's nature — a lust for blood ,"*came the haunting narration.*

Within a minute, the town completely becomes red. Walls bled. Rivers clogged with lifeless bodies. Over five thousand souls perished in what had once been a peaceful mountain village. Raven, soaked in the blood of the innocent, laughed maniacally.

"Blood!... More blood! I love taking your blood!"*he screamed into the dead sky, a mad grin splitting his face.*

Satisfied, and aware that Elyon's elites squad would soon arrive, Raven gave the town one final look before lifting off into the crimson sky, vanishing like a phantom. The red clouds still wept as if mourning the souls lost below.

Moments later ,high above the blood-soaked town, a glowing white portal cracked open the sky. From it descended the elite task squad of Elyon—the world's supposed saviors, clad in pristine armor and bathed in holy light. But even they, trained for war and hardened by years of battle, were not prepared for what awaited them.

"My god...who did this?"*the leader murmured, stepping on to ground slick with blood.*

"There is no one alive,"*a soldier1 confirmed grimly, scanning the lifeless bodies.*

"Look at the circle,"*another said, pointing to the remains of the magic seal still humming faintly on the ground.*

"Is this... Eternal Domain? Who could cast such a spell?"*the leader said in shock.*

"Only our Sir Elyon is that much powerful to cast this level of spell,"* solider2 exclaimed with tensed words.*

*"Then... is someone else that powerful as our hero?"*Soldier1 said*

Scene4: A Mysterious Cosmic Group

The Divine land massacre spread like a wildfire— across cities, across oceans, and even into the cold silence of space. The tale of the annihilated Divine Land has stunned the world, turning curiosity into fear.

Far beyond Earth, deep in an unknown star system, a hidden chamber of cosmic warriors—seven beings cloaked in power and secrecy— discussed the terrifying news.

"Yo guys... Have you all heard? The Divine Land's had been wiped out,"*said no.1.*

"Seriously? Isn't that place was under Elyon's care,"*another replied.*

 "Amusing, isn't it? Someone broke through his protection spells... a forbidden art,"*no.3 said with a intriguing smile.*

"Hey wake up."* 6th member tries to waking No.4 who fell asleep while in meeting.* 

"Let the little baby napping... I know he never interested in any of our meeting..."*1st said with a giggled.*

"So anyways... Yup he is... but that's not even the most interesting part. He used Eternal Domain,"*the first continued*

*"Well... its not a big deal Yes it drains caster's energy a lot , but still... Creating a Eternal domain is damm easy"*3rd one said*

"Don't make me laugh those lowly humans can never learn the eternal domain Its only for peoples like us. Yeahh.. except that hero.... Eylon".*5th member said with a loud laugh.*

"You are right... but if that was the case I wont be discussing this here

"So what is it?"*6th said with a curious look*

"Well that massacre boi used two attributes... or maybe more"

*His word left everyone in shock. Its like a cold thrilled air covers the room. There is tense look on everyone's face. Suddenly 4th speaks up.*

"Who the hell is this monster...."*4th said with a flabbergasted tone.*

*"Oh my my,"*a female voice purred.* "I think I kinda like him now."*7th said.*
