Demon Ranks

"I was born a God, but my father turned me into a Demon." In the Divine Spear Empire, power is everything, and Lucius Thorne was the pinnacle—until the Blood Moon Eclipse. On his eighteenth birthday, the day of his Ascension, Lucius is betrayed. His father, the Emperor, executes a forbidden "Grafting Rite," ripping Lucius’s Divine Core from his chest to empower his younger, more "malleable" brother, Julian. Left for dead in the Abyssal Rift—a place where even light dies—Lucius discovers that his core wasn't just a source of power; it was a seal. Without it, the Void Eater within him awakens. Rescued by Valeriana, a fallen War-Maiden from a forgotten era, Lucius begins a cold, calculated climb back to the surface. He doesn't just want his core back; he wants to witness the empire burn.

A cursed sword belonging to the Demon King was hurled to Earth during the war between the Gods and Demons, which ended in defeat for the Demon race. The malevolent radiation emitted by the cursed sword spread widely, plunging Earth into an age of DARKNESS for tens of thousands of years. Human moral values were destroyed, and truth vanished from every action. Their minds had been contaminated by the radiation released by the Demon Sword. Eventually, the Gods agreed to erase all humans and rebuild civilization on Earth. Good and evil were reintroduced in balance so that humans could choose the path they would one day follow. However, what the Gods had done did not completely eliminate the threat of DARKNESS returning to Earth. The Demon King, having lost half of his power, sought to find his sword and restore his full strength. His ultimate goal was to plunge Earth back into the age of DARKNESS. To thwart the Demon King's ambitions, the leader of the Gods bestowed a divine gift upon a young man named Ho Chen, born from a royal concubine. His mission was to find the Demon Sword and purge its evil influence in the crater of a mountain known for its powerful mystical energy.

In a mystical realm where humans are blessed with a unique connection to their inner selves, a wondrous fantasy world exists. Every individual is born with a Daemon, a magnificent creature believed to be the embodiment of their very soul. As they reach the age of maturity, the Daemon settles into a specific form, granting its human host a remarkable ability. However, amidst this extraordinary reality, there exists a young boy named Jacob who has faced a fate different from his peers.

No longer willing to be a victim, he unleashed an extraordinary ability, a power that surged through his veins. To his astonishment, he discovered that he possessed a system—a mysterious force guiding him through the trials and tribulations of his world. It presented him with quests, and challenges that tested his courage, resilience, and wit.

"Kill it! It's a defect! A stain like that has no right to exist in our city!" I looked at the small, pathetic puddle of black ink at my feet.

But as the guard’s boot came down to crush my "beast," the world went cold. "Don't," I whispered. It was too late. The shadow didn't die. It opened its mouth. One gulp. That was all it took for a Rank-B knight to vanish into the darkness. In a world where Beast Tamers are kings and ranks are law, I was born a zero. They called my summon a "Formless Blob." They sentenced us to death before we could even breathe. Little did they know, my beast isn't from this world. It doesn't have a rank because the system can't measure the Abyss. It doesn't have a limit because it grows by eating everything they hold dear. Ranks? Social status? Respect? My shadow is hungry. And today, the elites are on the menu.
