Chapter 1 - THE BEGINNING

A lab named Atak 2-93 was conducting some experiments. These experiments were being done on 10 people. The purpose of these experiments was to create medicines that could make humans immortal.

These people believed that death is a disease. This project was being led by Dr. Eno.

In this project, the first person brought in was a man named Ieferis. He and the others were injected with the formula.

He screamed in pain.

A few hours later, he died — around 14–15 hours after the injection, his breathing stopped.

24 minutes later...There was a stir in his body.

His body started mutating continuously. His height and width began to increase. The breaths that had once stopped began again. Along with this, new bones and new organs started forming. He began growling like an animal. In the blink of an eye, with 10 times the speed, he broke all the ropes that bound him. He attacked all the humans present in the lab.

But it wasn't just him who mutated — the others with him also mutated, and they all became...

The Ultimate Demon Lords.

But the destruction didn't stop with just humanity. This destruction transformed the entire Animal Kingdom into the Demon Kingdom, and insects mutated into monstrous beings.

Those who passed through this devastation either died... or were transformed into vampires.

Now, that didn't mean they drank human blood. These vampires were beings who drank demon blood. They did not consume human blood.

Some time later, when Inferis found out that the vampires had killed the Demon King...

Inferis—once a feared Demon Lord—had now ascended to the level of a Demon God.

His wrath knew no limit. His breathing alone had grown so intense and heavy, it made weaker beings explode in terror. And when he walked, the earth shook beneath his monstrous steps.

He looked up—his flesh-forged wings expanded like shadows blotting out the moon. And then… he took flight.

In mere moments, Inferis had arrived at the hidden Vampire stronghold.

He retracted his wings back into his body—flesh twisting and shifting—and fell like a nuclear bomb from the sky. The impact shattered the ground, exploding with a deafening BOOM that cracked the silence of the world.

Within seconds, an Elder Vampire emerged to protect his kind. But before he could even react, Inferis had split him into 1100 separate pieces in a blink. The vampires' blood burned in the air. The elder's soul tried to reform, using his ancient blood magic—but before he could finish, Inferis declared the entire vampire race guilty of Blood Treason.

With divine demonic fury, he annihilated them all.

The vampires, once proud and immortal, screamed—but none could stop the destruction. Not a single leader, not even their strongest warriors, could land a blow.

Then, after his slaughter, Inferis unfolded his demonic wings once again—eight brutal, fleshy appendages that shimmered like weapons of war—and flew into the sky, disappearing into darkness.

But…

> "In the silence that followed the massacre, a sound was heard… a child's cry."

Amidst the ruins, a child had survived—barely a few years old. His heartbeat weak but present. Somehow… fate had spared him.

An injured Elder Vampire, still barely alive, found the child amidst blood and ash. With heavy steps, he took the boy in his arms. He knew the vampire race was doomed, but perhaps…

> "This child must not die… His destiny is not here."

The elder whispered a spell, masking his demonic presence, and set off toward the last known human city—Kashi.

A place where even vampires feared to tread.

But that child… would be different.

That child… would one day rise from the ashes

– Born from Blood: Asuraa

He could only reach the main gate of the city.

His body was on the verge of collapse, but even in that state…

He didn't want humans to suffer because of him.

He refused to be the cause of another human's death.

So, he made a choice —

A warrior's final decision:

Sacrifice.

---

His eyes fell upon a small, crying newborn.

The baby looked weak — barely a week old.

In that moment...

he knew what he had to do.

"I offer the last of my strength,

my entire blood,

and the consciousness of my soul to this child…"

He focused all his power,

and transferred it into the child's fragile body

as a glowing, crimson energy.

The baby trembled for a moment…

Then began to breathe.

No longer an ordinary child —

A new being was born, and his name was Asuraa.

---

The dying warrior crafted a sacred tonic using his own blood,

infused it into the baby's veins,

and attached a name tag on his chest:

"Asuraa – Born from Blood of the Fallen."

After that, the warrior's body began to rot,

his flesh turning into a lifeless husk…

but his sacrifice now lived within the child's heartbeat.

---

Some time later…

A wandering monk named Alech arrived at the battlefield near Kashi.

The land was scorched, silent, dead —

but in the middle of the ruins,

he saw a one-month-old baby, still alive, glowing faintly.

He picked up the child and read the name tag: "Asuraa".

Alech didn't understand everything,

but he sensed one thing clearly —

This child was no ordinary human.

He took Asuraa to a secret sanctuary deep in the Himalayas,

where only pure souls and sacred energy could exist.

There, Asuraa was raised through discipline, silence, and deep meditation,

unaware of the ancient blood pulsing through his veins.

---

50 Years Later…

A dark invasion struck the Earth once again.

But this time, the invaders weren't just monsters.

They were a terrifying hybrid —

part human, part machine, part beast.

They didn't speak.

They simply destroyed —

and they could manipulate elements with precision.

Fire. Electricity. Metal. Gravity. Even air itself.

It became clear —

These beings weren't acting on instinct.

They were being controlled.

---

That's when Demon God descended from the sky.

He slaughtered the entire wave of invaders alone.

But a hidden truth was revealed —

These creatures weren't powerful because of their blood or muscles…

Their power came from their technology.

An advanced, alien-level tech that let them

concentrate and control elements like weapons.

---

It was now clear:

This war wasn't just of muscle and rage —

It was a war of technology, evolution, and consciousness.

And to fight this rising darkness,

someone must awaken.

Someone who was once born from blood,

and forgotten by time…

Asuraa…

was about to rise.

50 years later...

Only 70,000 humans remain alive in the world.

During this time, Asuraa had two sons. Both sons had children of their own.

Asuraa's elder son was named Eroth, and the younger one was named Bar.

Eroth had two sons as well — one of them was Trax.

Trax and his brother Wina were born into the same bloodline, but their personalities were completely different.

Trax was an emotional, timid, and fearful boy — always feeling weak, always hiding behind others. But deep inside, there was a quiet, hidden strength within him — a calm soul that could one day explode with unimaginable power.

Wina, on the other hand, was more confident and aggressive, often pushing Trax to toughen up.

Bar also had two sons — Yan and Yen — both strong and determined warriors. However, their path was very different from that of Trax.

By now, humans had become extremely weak compared to the demon race.

But then, a breakthrough changed everything — a special method was discovered by the last surviving scientists and warrior monks. This method allowed humans to awaken the dormant, ancient energy hidden in their DNA — a technique that could make even a weak human into a mighty warrior.

This technique involved intense physical training, brutal battles, and DNA awakening through extreme spiritual pressure and discipline.

A human who successfully mastered this path could reach a level known as "Lead", where they would possess the power of 50 million (50,000,000) normal humans.

However, this limit applied only to humans.

Demons were still far more advanced — their evolution had no fixed boundary. Their strongest forms could surpass even the highest awakened humans by many times.

And in this broken world full of shadows and blood, one boy — Trax — would rise from fear to fury.
