Chapter 1 - The Ancient Dark Lord

Long ago there existed an entity greatly feared by humans from small towns or entire armies of the royal palace. His name was known as the great black lord or king of demons.

It was well known that this demon king did not need large armies to conquer nations or human kingdoms, he could manipulate the hearts and minds of other people with promises, desires and deceptions. In many cases he was known as a master of dark diplomacy and seduction.

Many claim that she used to be a strikingly beautiful and extremely charming person, with a supernatural beauty that was both seductive and disturbing. She had a smile that promised much in the world and eyes that seemed to read the souls of those she dominated. Her attire was always luxurious and elegant; nothing like military attire. Many often remember that she had large wings that seemed made of shadows and light at the same time.

Nobody remembers exactly his personality but they do remember his greatest achievements.

In their first battle with the great hero, both wars completely destroyed the twin shadow towers.

These were two identical towers made of black obsidians that rose imposingly towards the sky in the demonic plains, they were not built by manual labor instead they emerged from the earth after the arrival of the demon king. These towers were destroyed in the confrontation between the great demon and the hero of the silver country. Their place had resonated the silence of the people and their faith towards the hero, but the hero was still very young and with very little experience but in the end he managed to escape from the hands of that demon.

It was to be expected that the scale of the demon king's power was completely different.

The hero of that era was a young man named Arthur, known as the embodiment of hope and resistance to injustice. He was a young man with an athletic and elegant complexion and blond hair. His eyes were a deep, penetrating blue, reflecting an unwavering determination. People adored him because he also had a deep empathy for the suffering of others in his people. His armor is light and functional, made of polished silver metal with gold details. He is a fundamentally optimistic and compassionate person, even in the darkest scenarios. He believes in the inherent good of people and in the possibility of a world completely different from the one we know today.

The hero Arthur trained for a long time, overcoming different types of challenges and fulfilling the mission of protecting his people. But as expected, a reunion with the demon king was inevitable, determined to have a fair and unrestricted confrontation, both opponents headed to the Whispering Woods of Sylvani. This was an ancient forest where the trees are so tall that their canopies block out the sun, plunging the ground into eternal darkness. The flora and fauna here are exceptionally magical, and it's said that the trees themselves have consciousness and can communicate through psychic whispers. Although this place was the habitat of many magical creatures such as forest spirits, fairies and ancient wood elves, it was a place where one could live in harmony with nature, but sometimes the creatures of the forest tend to be fierce protectors of their home against any incursion or visit from races such as demonic or human.

That day the army of the country of silver that accompanied the hero in the war.

the demon king for his part was accompanied by his entire army along with the special demonic combat forces.

some creatures of the Sylvani forest had entered the battlefield determined to protect their home.

A fierce battle began in this place and in a short time the troops that accompanied the demon king were reduced to a large number, the warriors that accompanied the hero had tremendous strength but were nothing compared to the great black lord for his part the hero concentrated only on having a hand-to-hand fight with the strongest lackeys.

The war lasted at least a day or just under 24 hours, as it was a battle between two large combatant forces. The hero managed to break through all the defenses and finally achieved his true objective.

Finally I was facing the strongest demon.

That day, the world had completely changed. A glimmer of hope had reached humanity.

The demon king was dead...

The little information that was found after his death is that the demon king's name was "Rhys Corvan".

His best battle titles were those of The Lord of Vast Horizons or Veridian, The Architect of Nothingness, he was also well known as the dark lord or the great demon king. He had an appearance that suggested an age of at least 26. His face displayed mature, well-defined features, with strong bone structure and a jaw that denoted power and control. His skin, though pale, had a texture that suggested experience and a good life. He might have had subtle lines around his eyes, which did not denote weakness, but rather a cold wisdom.

The battle ended with at least 70% of the demons killed and the rest escaping into the forest after Rhys Corvan's death.

and with approximately 85% of the army under the hero's command as fallen warriors on the battlefield.

After this battle, the hero Arthur had returned to the silver country, a place where he was well received by the joy of the people, little did they think about the chaos that a world without a demon king meant, the presence of one was what kept control of the waves of beasts that invaded the villages for their own benefit. But the hero's work did not end here, because Arthur was always determined to defend his people no matter the circumstances and from that day on this great battle was known as "The Climax of Dawn", a name that represented hope to those people who celebrated the death of the Demon King.
