Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: The Beginning

One day, the gods decided to eliminate Shinigami, the King of Demons, from the face of the earth.

Zeus, the God of Thunder.

Anubis, the God of Resurrection.

Susanoo, the God of Sea and Storm.

Odin, the God of the Sun.

Four gods against one king, a king who wielded only a single sword named (Kleinor)…

The war advanced to the brink of the world's destruction.

Two gods had fallen.

The remaining two, wounded, exhausted, and barely standing, faced a king who possessed the power to annihilate the world itself.

Shinigami stood before them, his body shattered and torn apart, yet his legs firm and unyielding.

He was exhausted, but still standing.

When the last two gods prepared to attack him, Shinigami suddenly laughed and threw his sword into the air.

Moments later, the sky began to turn stormy.

Black clouds spread everywhere.

The two gods stopped.

Shinigami stood there with a demonic smile, lightning bursting from his body and spiraling around him.

Susanoo shouted to Zeus:

"You're the God of Thunder! Do something! Stop him!"

Zeus, his eyes wide, replied:

"These lightning bolts weren't summoned for me to control! These… these lightning bolts are being created! They are something beyond my power!"

Shinigami began to walk forward with that demonic smile.

With every step, the ground beneath his feet shattered.

The sky trembled.

Red and black lightning struck the earth.

Yet, despite all this power, Shinigami's own body was collapsing.

Skin, bone, and flesh were turning into vapor.

When Zeus and Susanoo realized that Shinigami's body was breaking apart, they seized the chance and pushed his power even further.

But Shinigami was still smiling.

"I will die here… but I will drag you all with me into hell."

Susanoo, enraged, unleashed his massive tornado toward Shinigami.

Shinigami was caught inside Susanoo's storm, and Zeus continuously added lightning to it.

Little by little, Shinigami's feet lifted from the ground.

Under the crushing pressure of lightning and storm, his body began to break apart.

Zeus and Susanoo felt joy, believing the battle was finally over.

But the great war was only just beginning.

The black clouds above began to rotate directly over Shinigami.

The black clouds were drawn into Susanoo's tornado…

The white tornado turned black, transforming into a colossal storm that could even swallow mountains.

Susanoo said:

"What do we do now? We're finished…"

But suddenly, Kali, the Goddess of Death and Destruction, appeared.

A goddess clad in white, floating, with a long-collared cloak.

When Shinigami sensed her presence, he laughed and shouted:

"Welcome to hell, great goddess!"

Kali looked at Shinigami with pride and said:

"You have no power left. Your body is already falling apart…"

Shinigami laughed and said:

"I don't care anymore. Even if I die here, I will drag all of you with me into the depths of hell!"

Before Kali, the proudest goddess, could finish her words—

Kali angrily shouted:

"I am the creator of hell itself! Know your place, lowly demon!"

After a tremendous battle between Kali and Shinigami, Shinigami was finally defeated.

Two gods died.

The other two remained unconscious for an unknown amount of time.

Kali herself suffered deep wounds from Shinigami's attacks.

A war that caused the death of 50% of humans and demons.

Shinigami died.

All memories of him were erased from the minds of the people.

The demons were sealed away somewhere deep within the earth.

The demons were furious, and as the gate was being closed upon them, they shouted only one sentence:

"Our king is not dead…"
