"Ah! If only I could obtain it, I too would become a new Divine Spirit!"
...
The invisible desires and greed gradually spread among them, constantly being stimulated.
Nobody noticed that their shadows on the ground slowly turned crimson, angel wings sprouted fearsome barbs, and a pair of spiral horns gradually grew on their heads.
Their shadows seemed to have come to life.
The infection had also begun.
...
Ten days later.
A terrifying piece of news arrived.
A group of infected angels was raiding a city in the east from the sky.
Their forms drastically changed, wings pitch-black, full of greed, brutality, and bloodlust, carrying the most evil original sin.
These infected angels were called Fallen Angels by some, while others called them demons.
Upon receiving the news in the Divine Royal City, Rex immediately had an ominous feeling:
"Even if I know its weakness is me, it's not necessarily easy to subdue this disaster!"
"Because I am a Pseudo-God!"
"And it is wisdom born from the Divine Object itself, it is the god itself, capable of perfectly utilizing its power."
Thinking of this, he immediately issued a war order to the entire Light Church on the land.
[Exterminate the Demons]
A large number of Priests, Holy Knights, and Priests who were conscripted began heading east, sealing off cities along the way.
And their Light Magic sealed city gates, capable of purifying those whose infection was not too deep.
Moreover, they began to call that Shadow Divine Object born with wisdom:
[Original Demon King]
The Demon King, demons, thus appeared for the first time in this Mythical Era.
From the moment they appeared, they were destined to have disputes with Light for generations.
"This is a trial by God!"
"And this time, all of us have the power to fight against him!"
"We will use Light to conquer Darkness!"
"The Light God has personally intervened, we are about to seal it!"
For a time, countless Light Heroes eager to defeat the Demon King set sail, starting to combat the new disaster.
...
Year 911 of the Butterfly Race, June.
The lifelong enemy of the Light Church, the Demon King, emerged in the east, and the world's strong gathered to eliminate it.
Gathering believers of the Light Church, they swarmed from all directions to form a huge encirclement in the east.
Countless believers raised the statue of the Light God high, bowing repeatedly, shrinking the encirclement.
The Demon King could only hide in the shadows.
When birds flew across the sky, they would shoot them down.
The Demon King, hiding in the shadow of a bird's wings, would fall and be instantly besieged by countless Divine Arts from the Holy Knight Legion.
"Kill!"
"For the Empire!"
"Courage!"
"Sacrifice!"
"Think of the destruction brought by the Wind Disaster, we cannot let it spread! Behind us are our families, friends, and loved ones!"
They shouted slogans, unafraid of death.
With a group of fanatical Holy Knights unafraid of sacrifice, the Demon King was repelled repeatedly back into the encirclement.
The Demon King exploded in anger: "How did you know I was hiding in the shadow of the bird's wings!"
The leading Holy Knight said: "Our Light God, full of wisdom and knowledge, had long anticipated you might do this!"
The Demon King, driven back, began another method.
August.
The inescapable Demon King began spreading infection crazily in the east.
With Sirius leading, many eastern cities fell, turned into bases for demons.
Countless demons began to emerge, deluded by greed, leaving no city spared, transforming into Hell.
Over Hell, numerous Fallen Angels and demons formed armies to retaliate!
They shattered statues of mysterious churches in the city, using the stored [Mysterious] mana inside to develop entirely new magic.
[Mysterious] + [Shadow] = Necromancy.
They wielded scepters, granting life to corpses, forming an army of the undead.
"What holy power, all are false!"
"The King of Shadows, he is the true ruler of the earth."
"Rise up!"
Even massive bone dragons and armies of skeletal giants appeared, engaged in direct conflict with the Holy Empire.
However, within the Holy Legion, the Light God personally intervened.
"Kill!"
An endless light shone upon the whole land, burning countless shadows.
Numerous bone dragons turned to ashes under the burn.
Year 911 of the Butterfly Race, October.
In the Lily Plain, where the Holy Empire once waged war with the giant dragons, a grand battle began.
The evil Demon King Army assembled all its main forces, intending to break out of the east.
Once it broke out of this encirclement cage, it would be unstoppable, and the entire land would become its Hell, its kingdom of shadows, and the living on earth would become puppets.
The battle lasted three days and nights.
Under the wise and mighty leadership of the Light God, the main forces of the Demon King Army were defeated in one fell swoop.
The Holy Empire thus laid the foundation for a great victory, marking the first time in history that the Demon King Army was defeated, with countless followers of the Light Church praising it and lavishly documenting and praising it in the "Bible."
This became known as... the Holy October Campaign.
On his deathbed, the young Original Demon King laughed heartily, "I haven't yet grown up, just wait, for the next time..."
"There won't be a next time!"
Rex radiated endless divine light, wielding the scepter, with a stern and solemn expression, "You're merely a trial by God, perish."
"Whichever god, even the Creator God, one day I will...." With a scream, the Demon King was knocked backward, completely scattered in consciousness.
This Demon King, in his final moments, exhausted all his power, sending his body away, turning into a meteor disappearing into the sky.
