Prologue: “Guest”

The Three Factions. These factions have existed after God, ruler of Heaven, had made Lucifer exiled from his birthplace along with his comrade that has also fallen from grace.

There is the Devil Faction, ruled by Devils, beings born from the Underworld and lived in it. The others are the Angel Faction, holy being from Heaven, and the Fallen Angel Faction, being once from Heaven but have fallen.

These factions have co-existed with each other, treating each other as friends and family.

Besides the three factions, there are other creatures and deities such as vampire, gods, dragons, youkai, valkyries, and humans, but each of these races lived separately in different planes of the universe, though some lived in the same planes with other races.

Every creature is formidable, powerful and has talent of their own. However, there is one species that frighten every single creature in the universe, even the gods themselves, just by hearing their name.

They are the Dragon.

Powerful, respectful, selfish, admired and feared by all. The Dragon species are a formidable force of nature that can withstand everything, even the gods, Though the dragons are powerful, but not as powerful as the three highest class.

They're the True Dragon, the Dragon God and The Two Heavenly Dragon.

The True Dragon, a class that brings fear and awed to all who heard it for the True Dragon is the strongest of all dragons. Nothing could stop it, even the gods themselves, even if the three factions worked together, even with the intent to kill, can't stop it either.

The Dragon God, class of powerful dragons that have the capacity to wipe out a whole city with ease. And wipe out the three factions by themselves if they want to.

And finally, the Two Heavenly Dragons, as the name suggests, there are only two dragons that earn it. They're the Red Dragon Emperor, named Ddraig, who has the power to boost its power, making it twice as strong as its original power and a fiery burning breath that could burn the flesh of every single creature in a matter of seconds. And The White Dragon Emperor, named Albion, who has the power to divide the opponent power to half and absorbs the other half to itself, making it stronger and venomous fangs that kill anything it touches in a second.

However, they are no match for the True Dragon and the Dragon God, even if these two "destined to fight each other" dragons worked together.

The Red and White have fought each other ever since they first met, and since then, these two rivals have fought each other non-stop from day after day, night after night. And even though these two are rivals, they are not angry at each other, they do not resent each other, instead, they're happy to meet each other. Finally having somebody to fight with, to train with, to spar with, without the opponent dying first.

There has been peace for many many years between the factions. However, peace never lasts long.

It all started with the Four Great Satan, the rulers of the Underworld, having a plan to eliminate God, the ruler of Heaven, and his angels so that they can dominate the world, and claim it as its rulers. God, of course, doesn't sit there and do nothing about the Satans' plan, he will fight to the death, even if he's now in his weakest state after sealing away Trihexa, a legendary being so powerful, its power rivals the True Dragon and the Dragon God. And the Fallen Angel, see this as an opportunity to wipe both factions, they also join in the fight.

And thus, The Great War began.

As The Great War had begun, all Three Factions started to slaughter each other as if they were pigs, willingly going to the Slaughter House. From left to right, on the battlefield, all you see was the spill guts and blood, broken bones and the lifeless corpses of Devils, Angels and Fallen Angels. Swords slash from left to right while magic was summoned to dispose of other factions, it was chaos.

And what worse is that they held their war, at the same ground where the Two Heavenly Dragons are currently fighting. The Two Heavenly Dragons were enraged, being interrupted by the three factions. Hence, The Two Heavenly Dragons stopped their endless rivalry temporarily and started to slaughter the three factions. The Three Factions were foolish, to interrupt The Two Heavenly Dragons, who have the abilities and powers to kill both Gods and Satans altogether. And all of them know that on this day, they must pay for how brainless they are.

However, the Great War unexpectedly had a guest.

While the dragons are effortlessly killing the three factions with their immense power, they are ,again, interrupted. But this time by a being, who seemingly appears out of thin air and now it stood on the battleground, in front of the bloodlust and enraged dragons a few distances away.

The being was a huge giant, clad in a full set of grey armor, black outline ardonning it,. And four symbols in red, two on the shoulder-plate and two of its poleyn.

The symbol on its shoulder-plates is a well-known symbol, the Cross, the one representing Christianity and Christ himself. And the two on its knee-plates, are also a well-known symbol, the inverted Pentagram, the one symbolizing the Devil and Satan himself.

Also, the armor itself is very bulky, hence made the being bulkier and it was currently holding a greatsword with double edged silvery-white blade , and a hilt made out of gold and silver.

This being got the attention of the armies of Three Factions and its leader, though the armies were confused, the leaders did not, instead, they were shocked and surprised. For not because of its bulky angelic yet demonic armor or the giant greatsword which seems bigger, in width and length, than an average height of a Devil or an Angel. What surprises the leaders is the immense aura that is coming out of the being.

The aura it released was off. It consisted of somewhat holy yet filthy at the same time. The leader were confused of this armor giant aura for they don't know what it is since they never saw this kind of aura. But when the leaders of the Three Factions finally recognized what kind of aura it was, they were all shocked.

The being has the aura of an Angel...and a Devil.

They were confused, shocked, surprised of how a being exists with the aura of an Angels and at the same time, the aura of a Devils. All leaders were distracted, lost in their thoughts, forgetting about their plans, their war, until the being lifted its sword that it was holding, and pointed its blade toward the dragons, challenging it they assumed, and bringing the leaders back to reality.

All of them were shocked by how stupid and an idiot this being is, challenging the Two Heavenly Dragons, two of the most powerful beings that can kill Gods and Satan with ease,

"That idiot will die for sure" all of the leaders and the armies thought, but what happens next, make them dumbfounded.

The already enraged dragons, seemingly accepting its invitation, both charged at the being with no hesitation, ready its claws, its teeth, fangs, and its god-killing abilities, to obliterate the beings. While the dragons' charges at the being, the being stood firm on the ground, only moving its sword to the left and the blade passing between its left shoulder and its left cheek, waiting to strike when the dragons were closer.

And in a blink of an eye, the being still stands, this time not holding its blade, instead, the being is now sheathing its weapon, slowly, on its back, and the dragons are now behind the being, standing still like a statue.

This scene shocked the Satans, God and the leader of the Fallen Angel, Azazel, for the being, who is not dead nor injured and at the same time confused at the Two Heavenly Dragons, who just stood there, motionless, doing nothing. However, what happened next, make all three factions awed and shocked.

When the being had done sheathed away its blade, both of the dragons head fells down to the ground, decapitated by the being, then blood shoots out of the spot where there use to their heads, like a fountain before the dragons' body fall down to the ground and forming a pool of blood, surrounding the lifeless body in minutes.

This "fight", if you could even call it a fight, has made all the leaders and its armies both dumbfounded and shocked at the scene. Where an unknown being from nowhere, having the auras of both Angels and Devils, wearing a full set of black and gray demonic yet angelic armor, with great-sword looks like a holy sword, had killed two of the most powerful creatures in the world that even just hearing its name can send a chilled on every creatures spine who have heard it, with ease.

All Three Factions were astonished at the being feet of power that no one will ever do just by themselves. However, the being got another surprise, that it doesn't show...yet.

As the being walked toward the lifeless body of the dragons, he was stopped by a Devil, who is currently holding a trident, pointing right behind the being back. Just inches away for the weapon to make contact with its armor.

The being, in an instant, ripped the Devil's head off, while still standing there. Its face is still toward the lifeless dragons, the only difference is that the being is now holding the head of the foolish Devil by its hair. The Devil's body hits the ground and blood spilled out of the wound before the being throws the fools head to the ground.

After he had thrown the Devil's head, he was then attacked by two entities. One of them was an Angels, who was flying and charging towards right at him with full speed while holding the sword upward, ready to attack, to slice the being to pieces.

And the other one, that the armor giant noticed it at the right corner of its eyes, was a Fallen Angel. Also flying and charging at him with full speed, however, the Fallen Angels was not using a sword, it was using a spear and it ready to impaled the being when it's close to the being in distance.

Sadly, to them, this will only end in their death, and their death will start The Great War again, but this time, the Three Factions will face Extinction.

As both Angel and Fallen Angel charge toward the being while doing a battle roar, with spear and sword in hand, ready to eliminate the being.

The being, in a bat of an eye, draws the golden-silvery hilt with the silvery blade out its scabbards, and then vanishes into thin air.

Both attackers are now hovering, and bewildered at the sudden disappearances of the being until one the attacker, the Fallen Angel, felt pressure on its black feathery wings. In response, the Fallen Angel looks back, and with a mix of horror, and surprise on its face, saw the being is now behind the assaulter and is currently grabbing both of its wings.

Before the pitiful attacker could use its magic or do anything, the armor being rip its wings off.

The Fallen Angel screamed in agony as its wings were ripped away from its back. Before the Fallen Angel could drop to the ground, the being grabbed its neck from behind after throwing away the now useless wings.

The foolish attacker, now gasping for air, has realized its mistake, for foolishly try to attack the one that is responsible for the dragons' demised. And before it could try to beg for mercy or call for help, the being tightens its hand, that is wrapping the attacker's neck, then ripped the Fallen Angel head along with its neck and spine, before vanishing into thin air again.

The remaining attacker, the Angel, is now frightened at the being brutality, and at the Fallen Angel headless corpse on the ground, in a pool of fresh blood, and the Angel decided to run back to its post. But when it turned around to make a full sprint back, to its horror, the being is now right in front and face-to-face the attacker, with one hand holding its sword and the other hand holding the head of the now deceased Fallen Angel by its spine.

Before the Angel could tumble on the ground, in fear and tried to beg for mercy, the being grabbed it by the head with its hand and at the same time, slowly tightened it.

All factions, all creatures on the battlefield, swear that they all heard the sound of bone cracking as the being slowly tightens its hand.

The Angel trying to get out of the being grasped by hitting its hand, and kick at the being before it stops attacking and now begging to let the Angel live, and calling to it comrade and its ruler, God, for help after releasing a painful shriek.

Sadly, before God could use his power to help the poor and idiotic Angel, the being close its fist, crushing the Angel skull to bits. The now lifeless corpse tumbled to the ground and formed a pool of blood, surrounding it with part of its skull now missing.

The being, now hands and sword both stained with blood, looked up and its wings appeared. The Four Great Satan, Azazel, the leader of the Fallen Angel faction and God, all at a loss, by the physical appearance of the being wings.

Both of its wings were gigantic, bigger than any wings that the Devil, Angel, and Fallen Angel ever had, and its size were only beaten by the wings of a dragon.

It was black as tar, and had long fingers that are similar to bat wings, similar to devil wings, but the bat wings web is now gone, replaced with golden light feathers, that is not just bright but is also shining holy light, similar to angel wings.

Now the armies of each faction, and the leaders' eyes were now all widened, staring at the being with their mouth open, shocked at the being wings that can emit a holy golden light, that can burn the Satan to ashes if they are closed to it, while it has a filthy tar-like color that can corrupt an Angel mind if touched or getting near it. While the leaders and its armies were preoccupied, the being flapped its wings, and in a heartbeat and the being was now up high in the sky.

And what happens next, will be marked as "The Great Massacre".

The being is now up in the sky, gaining the attention of all creatures on the battlefield. As the being is up there, it wields its weapon and points the blade into the skies before the skies suddenly turn red, red like warm, fresh blood.

As all Devils, Angels, and Fallen Angels look into the now blood skies confused at the events, the being point it sword toward the Devil Faction, then, multiple thunderous red lightning came down instantly, striking down any Devil who foolishly just stand there and do nothing, killing those who has become the target of the being.

Most of the Devils scream for help, for mercy on their souls, some try to run away from the being, and some try to attack the being by flying to it with their trident in hand, sadly, the lightning never misses its target.

The Angel Faction were relieved, that the being is not targeting them and not just that, it was also helping them destroy the threat to their faction. And the Fallen Angels were also relieved by being not its targets, and helping them destroy one of the two factions that they want to eliminate.

Unfortunately, they were wrong.

While the frightening, and thunderous lightning continue to slaughtered the Devil Faction, the being turned toward the other two factions, startling them, then the being pointed it blade toward the Angel Faction before pointing its blade again, this time toward the Fallen Angel Faction. And in a split second, the same loud and thunderous red lighting came down on both of them. Now it's all chaos.

Devils, Angels, and Fallen Angels, all screaming and running away from the being, pushing its comrade away to save their own life, and stomping those who had, unfortunately, fall down, there are some try to attack the being both directly and stealthy, however, it didn't work as the lightning never miss its target, like it summoner.

The ruler of Heavens, God will not stand stills and let the being kill all of his subordinate, his creation, his children. Also, apparently, the Four Great Satan was also thinking the same thing, while Azazel, has seen many of his subordinates being killed by the being bolts of red thunder, had ordered his remaining Fallen Angels subordinate to retreat. The armor giant notice that the Fallen Angels were retreating, and decided to spare the retreating factions and use his lightning on the remain two.

The Four Great Satans and God decided that it's time to end their existence. However, unfortunately, before the Four Great Satan could used their magic, in a fraction of a second, the same lightning hit all of them at once, without them noticing.

Now the Four Great Satan, the mighty rulers of the Underworld, now have the same fate as their Devils subordinates, being burnt to a crisp. And sadly, God also has the same fate as the Four Great Satan. But more brutal.

While God is prepared to use his magic, to erase the armor being from existence, the being vanished. God was shocked, and before he could react, the being appeared behind him and punched him in the back of his head, making a hole, with his fist ended on the front side of God's head.

Michael, one of the first creation and God right-hand man and who is standing right next to God, was confused at the being disappearances and was alarm by the bone-cracking and squishy sound to where God standing and when he looks, he was horrified, shocked at the scene where God, his father, had been killed by the being.

Before Michael could do anything, the being disappeared. Leaving God corpses on the ground then Michael kneeled down and held his father in his hand and shed his tears, cried his heart out of his loss, with a mix feelings of regret and guilt.

When the remaining Seraphim, the most powerful Angels in Heaven arrived, they all had a mix of shock, anger, sadness, and horror when they saw Michael kneeling on the floor holding God's lifeless corpses, on both of his arms, surrounded in a pool mix of blood and tears.

The other Seraphim took action, telling all of its Angels subordinates to retreat. The being saw the Angels retreating and decided to now only focus on the Devil Faction, which most of them were running away and some were trying to attack the being but got hit by his bolts of lightning.

The being must admit, this was entertaining. But the armor giant decided it's time to stop after seeing the states the Devil Faction is in and could say that the being almost brings the Devils Faction to extinction.

Then the being, still high up in the sky and flapping its demonic and angelic wings, lift its weapon and pointing it to the sky once more. And eventually, the blooded skies have now returned to its original color.

The Devil Factions notice the red-blooded skies have returned to their original color, and the thundering roar of lightning has stopped as well. The remaining Devils are now filled with relief, feeling that their body is now at rest after seeing the skies.

Then a realization hits the Devil Faction if that being is still here, then its no time for resting.

The remaining Devils started to look for the being, and all of them saw it. The being is high up in the sky, covered in blood with a mix of guts, and right before it is about to leave, the being purposely dropped a small dagger, with a blue like a sapphire gem hilt and a tar-like color blade.

The small dagger blade hits the ground, startling and frightens the survivors, making them close their eyes and raise their arms to protect themselves if something happens, but after a few seconds straight, nothing happens.

As the Devils slowly opened their eyes, what they saw was their brethren, Angels, and Fallen Angels corpses, all burnt into black charcoal, and the dagger, its blade had hit the ground. And the being had disappeared.

For many years after the Great War, many many Devils are afraid to pick it up or go near it, but there are some Devils come close to the dagger and try to pick it up, only to found themselves unable to pick up the dagger as if they are trying to lift up unthinkably weigh. Then they use magic to pick it up, still, it didn't work and some may think it has some kind of spells that making it heavy or something and hence use spells to cancel or remove the spell.

But when they did, they found out that this dagger has no spell. Then they decided to lift the blade by digging it out but when they tried the ground was now rock hard solid, they first used their tool then used magic, sadly all their attempts were to no avail.

Even the Gods, each from different religions has tried it. And they failed.

After many Devils had tried to lift the dagger, they concluded that the dagger is unliftable and may will only be lifted by it rightful owner, which is the armor enigma that had decapitated the Two Heavenly Dragons and slaughter the Three Factions armies and rulers with ease, as if they're ants, a bunch of annoying ants.

Thousand and thousands of years later, after the Great War, or the Great Massacre. The Three Factions tried to rewrite history many times over the last few years, trying to get rid of the being from history, so that no one could ever hear it and trembled in fear again.

However, some still remember the truth of what really happened on that day, but they decided to hide it, for some personal reasons.

And to the modern days, the being, had been completely forgotten, erased from history, only a very little number still remembered it.

And the dagger has now been deemed a mystery by young modern teenage Devils, Angels, and Fallen Angels, as they don't know the truth to the story.

Now they have forgotten about the being. However, "it" still remembered them, and it will bring Extinction to them once more.
