Alex Silvercrest

{1 week ago, in the Snowhaven region}

Deep in the snowy mountains, void of any life forms, a young man in his teens was limping while walking towards an unknown destination. The young man had ashen skin and a skinny body, with sunken hollow eyes as if he hadn't slept a wink in the past week.

His body fell down abruptly, having given out before his tenacity and will ever could. With a face that said he was refusing to accept the situation, he slowly started falling into despair.

'It's somewhere around here according to the ancient map I got. I must GET IT and improve my family's living conditions!'

Even though his body had given out, the young man slowly started crawling onward. After an unknown period of time, his body was rendered simply incapable of even crawling as he coughed out a bit of blood.

"NOT YET, I can still MOVE!", screamed out the young man. Suddenly the ground beneath him glowed as his blood slowly started seeping down and got absorbed by something. Right at this moment, the ground beneath him gave way as he fell several meters down, on an altar. There was not a single bone in his body that wasn't fractured.

"Is this it, I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THIS!! I CAN'T DIE LIKE THIS!".

As if to prove him wrong, he heard a deep voice that reverberated from the void.

"Mortal, I've judged your will and tenacity to survive, even in the harshest of the situations. I believe you're worthy enough. Alex Silvercrest, MARK MY WORDS, from now on you shall be my Apostle. From this very instant, you will possess the powers to manipulate and bend the light and darkness itself to your whims. Remember my name I am the [###### #### #### ####]. I am looking forward ## #### journey."

Alex had bled too much by this point and his body seemed physically incapable of remaining conscious. He could only vaguely make out what the other person was saying but also missed out several of the words due to his injuries. The last thing he saw were two orbs, one black and the other light yellow in color floating towards him as he was then knocked out.

{The 2nd Demon King Palace, in the Stygian Depths}

Inside a room, filled with demonic energy sat a middle-aged man on a throne made of the skulls of Dragons. He gave of the feeling that he had been sitting there since time immemorial.

His eyes fluttered open, quite suddenly as he gazed at the distance, in the direction of Athanasia. His aura flaring up, he started giving off a threatening vibe as the ground around him was crushed simply by his massive presence.

"Zepar, get here NOW!"

"Yes M'lord", a humongous demon, dressed in fiery red armor scurried into the room, as he knelt before the 2nd Demon King, Mammon.

Mammon: "The 'Venerable One' has chosen his apostle among the humans. Our plans have almost come to fruition and we cannot allow anything to go wrong. Send some spies to Athanasia, I want 'his' Apostle to be dead before he can have the chance to grow up. Nothing must go wrong now, we've been planning for quite a long time!"

Zepar: "Yes, M'lord, I'll chase his Apostle to the depths of Hell if I have to."

{2 months later, June 2048}

During the past two months, Asher had only been studying to prepare for the written exams and also training to increase his strength with the help of doping. He had earned quite a lot after shorting the stocks and was quite satisfied for the time being.

[Account: XXX]

[Balance: 1,048,262,560,000 credits]

"These are enough credits to buy me resources for the next few years. I guess I should also take a look at my status and see how much I improved. As I used to be [F] rank earlier, it was quite easy for me to make my way back up with the help of my increased talent. Even some of the hidden restrictions would have been undone by the system. Here goes nothing, Status!"
