1 The Beginning

The world of Graxina is a world that dominated by strong warriors and mages. In this world where magic and inner strength being cultivated and as a benchmark of someone, you can do wathever you want as long as you have the power to do it. If someone have strong magic or inner strength he can be what he wished, a general, a king, or even king of kings. There is so many warriors or mages that have terrifying power-but not so smart- that being worshipped everywhere. In this world it's difficult to be someone with high position with just intelligence and brain, but it's not mean that there is no one who can, but it was very very rare.

In this world there is six continents that inhabited by people from all races, humans, elves, dwarves, high orcs (an orc race that have high intelligence and self awareness like humans), beastmen, and demons (an intelligent race that somewhat similar to human but with darker color, horns, and the dark energy they have) [AN: this energy will be explained in the future]. These continents is the ones that currently found, beside them there is a continent that was full of beasts and there is no one who can conquer this continent, until now at least. There were many speculations which says that besides these seven continents there is many continents that yet to be found. The names of the seven continents is; Normand, Platos, Homen, Subica, Verben, Welsand, and the one which is inhabited by beasts is called Wild Roars continent (it's because once people landed on that continent, they will hear screams and roars of beasts).

As for the races, they were scatterred in many continents and not gathered in one continents, for example, humans lived in many countries that scatterred in the six continents, so as the other races.

In this world, there is something called energy, it's the source of magic and inner strength. There is many kind of energies, like; light, dark energy, elemental energies like; metal, earth, fire, water,lightning and wind.

People will awaken their energy when they reached 10 years of age. But not everyone can have an awakening, it's because although everyone have an energy, not all of them have enough energy to release it. In 10 people only 1 person can have an awakening, in ten 10 people who has been awakened, most of them only able to release their energy in the form of sparks, and only one of them who can release it in the form of magic offense or defense and inner strength. Once a kid is ten 10 years old, he will be awakened with one energy, this is the average, and the ones that awakened with two energies called as Dual Holder, for the ones that awakened with three energies is very rare that there are no terms given to them, as for the ones who awakened with all the kind of energies is unheard of,,,, at least before the rise of a demon called as the God Slayer.

People with single energy not always be worse than the people with dual or multi energy. Many people with dual and multi energy tried to master all of their energies but they failed to reach high achievment, while the ones that that training in one energy most of them managed to exceed most of the dual holders. But of course there will be an anomaly in everything, and the anomaly in this world is this God Slayer, someone whose real name is Elias Janks, a commoner demon who exceeded his limit and raised his way to be the strongest warrior in Graxina.

He is someone who is sometimes called as a freak because he awakened in all of the existing energies and can excel and be a master in all of them. He is someone who is feared, respected and admired by most of the inhabitants of this world, but of course there will be many people who envied and hated him. Elias raised his name through the world in no peaceful way, his hands has been smeared with the blood of many people, humans, demons, elves and the other races. He is someone who never wanted to be a king or emperor, his only wish is to be the strongest man alive and to slay everyone who offended him. There is many records about the ones that has fallen in his hand, commoners, soldiers, generals, kings, he never cared about their status, as long as someone offend him, he will kill him/her.

That is until the recent occasion where he killed a prince because the prince who doesn't know his face somehow offended him. It was happened in Ronsgar Kingdom, a human kingdom in Normand continent. Elias as someone who reached the apex of strength have an ability to disguise himself. He used this ability to disguise himself as a human when he traveled to Rummenigge, the capital city of Ronsgar Kingdom.

At the time when he was drinking and eating in a restaurant, there was a group of people which seemed like a group of army barged to the restaurant, the leader of the group claimed that he is the third prince of the kingdom and he wanted to book the restaurant for him and a noble girl he fancied, so he ordered the other customers to leave at once. All of the customers left the restaurant at once but there is still a youth with ordinary appearance who stay still in his chair and ignored the prince. The prince became furious and ordered two of his guards to drag the man outside, the man-Elias- just thowing two empty plates to the two guards to make them fainted. The prince as someone who doesn't know the height of sky and the depth of earth (an idiom about someone who is ignorance) ordered all his guards to beat the man to death because he dared to attack the prince's guard. All of the guards advanced forward to attack Elias, but Elias just sighing before he pointed his finger to them and the guard fallen apart, all of them dead just like that. Elias who became annoyed of all of this looking at the Prince that trembling because of fear. He throw a little fire ball to the prince and he crumble to dust.

The King of Rosgard who heard that his son was killed in the capital of his own kingdom became infuriated and sent one of the great general and the Imperial Guards to capture the man. The problem after that escalated until it looks like a war between one person against a whole army of the city. The result of that is the annihilation of the entire Imperial Guard and 70 percent of the City Defense Army, the death of the King, and half of the city destroyed just in a day.

Once the news about that event has spread to the entire world, the King of Nodra kingdom, one of the five strongest kingdoms invited all the kings, sect leaders and the leaders of all the major organisation in the world to a very important meeting that become a notable event in the history. The subject of the meeting is the danger and threat that all the people of Graxina faced, and that is the walking killing machine that known as the God Slayer, the King of Nodra proposed a suggestion to solve the problem, and that is the alliance of all the major powers to kill Elias. The representative of the major powers agreed to the suggestion and formed an alliance to get rid of Elias.

The members of the alliance sent their strongest mages and warriors. The number of the alliance army numbered to one hundred thousand. All of them aren't just a normal soldier, but experts from every corner of the world. The alliance spared no effort to find Elias. And their effort became fruitful when they found him. And the battle occured, that battle is the biggest and the most destructive battle the people remembered. The battle last for three days until the current time;....

__---__

There is one person with dark skin and three horns in his head, he is in half kneeling position as he panting. That guy is Elias the God Slayer.

"huff...hufff..." he tried to catch his breath, but fatigue, pain and injury seemed to worsening his condition.

He tried to stand but it was very difficult. In his surrounding there is ten people floating in the air and tens of thousand of people lying on the ground,, no, not people, but corpse. Yes, they are the members of the alliance army, the floating ones are the strongest that remained. This result is outside of the expectation of the alliance's higher ups, they finally relized that they uderestimated Elias's strength too much. They tought that sending a hundred thousand strongest experts is already overestimating him, but they are wrong.

"Elias, it's time to give up, we all know that sooner or later you'll die of exhaustion, so why not you kill yourself so you won't feel more pain and humiliation." Said the fire mage with contempt in his face, but in his heart he is scared, he doesn't know what kind of trump card Elias have in his hands.

"What's with the talking, why not you just kill me if you have the courage? And what humiliation? Is there someone who can make the entire world fight against him, and he succeed to kill most of the enemies? Is there anyone other than me? So what humiliation I have? Actually I'm proud to be written in history as the strongest existence in the world. If today I must die, so be it, everyone will meet their death, if the death comes it's time can't be delayed or advanced." Elias answered him with eyes of someone that looking down on all existence. But in his mind he keeps thinking of a way to escape this disaster.

Elias already know that his body will die today, but he still have two ways to make his soul escape his peril. The first is the 'Hidden Soul' spell, this spell enable him to release his soul to be reincarnated in the body of a newborn baby in the same time as he died. With this spell he can exact revenge to the alliance but this spell will retain only his memory, not his cultivation and talent. And there is the risk of exposing himself to his enemies, because every soul has an aura that can't be changed, and there is a spell that allow a superior mage to detect a soul aura. The second way is the 'Soul Binding Stone'. It's a magical stone that will bind his soul in it and remove the aura, but it will injure his soul and the soul must take a time to recuperate. Once it was healed he can release his soul to enter a body with weak soul in the distance of one thousand meters. The cons of this spell is that he don't know how much time his soul need to rest, it can be a year, ten years, a century, or even a millenia.

"I don't know if he was exhausted that he can't attack us or it's just he is trying to gather his energy to launch a last attack, I think it's better if all of us attack him together." Said the demon mage.

A human water mage answered, "Yes, I agree"

"Allright then, attack." The leader of the army, a human warrior ordered.

All of them advanced together to attack Elias.

"Wow,, what a sight..so be it then, I think I'll use the stone." Elias thought as he pressed the stone with his left hand's fingers while he point his right hand to incoming enemies.

He pronounced the spell in his mind 'Fire Carnage'.

'booommm....' A big explosion with a hundred meters diameter exploted in the middle of the enemies, 3 of the mages burnt to dust not even in second, a mage and a warrior tried to escape the fire but still hit by the spark and they died. The remaining five just got lucky that they not tried to escape but to activate their defense ability to the max, even then they still got heavily injured.

"He is really worth the nickname as the strongest warrior." Said the leader.
