A hero has slain the demon king upon the demon kings death the hero is heavily injured he tells his companions to "Please help me" then they're eyes lit up with GREED they told him "Huh why would we help you when we could take all the glory to ourselves" and just like that he was betrayed but normally heroes cannot die they would respawn from the last place they slept in exchange he would go down a level but this time the weapon they used to finish him was a soul shatter dagger a weapon infamous for killing heroes before its enchantment would rip apart the targets soul and torture them before they're death but before he was dead he held so much anger so much rage that he manage to fully get rid of his holy aura which no hero has done before and somehow an evil aura replaces it somehow someway he managed to actually fully absorb the power of the demon king
(in normal hero vs demon king fiasco after the hero gets healed he usually gets enough strength to gather the demon kings mana to open a portal to earth but this time)
this time was different since he had no more interest to go back to earth but instead survive the soul shatter dagger to gain revenge for they're betrayal and his system (the hero system) was starting to glitch it rapidly turned to another system called "THE VILLAIN SYSTEM" as the soul dagger hit him he then experienced so much pain but 200 years later he managed to be RESSURECTED his soul stitched back like cheap cloth he noticed then and there ?!? HE WAS A LICH ?!?
he then proceeds to check his system which was heavily down graded he then said "system what happened?" the villain system then replied " i apologise the system tried to Ressurected but your soul was to complicated so i the system had to sacrifice some of my functions to complete your soul once more however since then your status has been back to level one you cannot see your status due to it being one of the functions that had been sacrificed you can only ask your skills and level to me or ask the level of others or ask me questions you may be able to return some functions but it requires heavy amounts of mana
eli (the lich) said
"WHAT?!? ..... breath in.... breath out relax eli even if the system is nearly useless atleast it saved me"
he then proceeds to check his skills then he found a skill that intrigued him
"soul flame
level: 1
rarity: DEITY
description:
with the soul flame it has the power of burning a soul caster is completely immune to any soul threatening attacks/weapons users soul is surrounded by a soul flame shield that protects it from level one and below soul attacks
eli then said with a grin its gonna be one hell of a day tommorow
