Third POV
In the beginning, the Father of Creation created a world named Orion.
The Orion was divided into seven continents. Each continent has its own beauty, terrains, and nature.
Then, the Father of Creation created the five Celestial Beasts and became the pillar of Orion the following day after Orion was created.
On the third day, Elemental Archons were assigned to govern the planet's elemental energies and maintain the balance of Orion.
On the fourth day, the Father of Creation breathed life into Orion, so races of living were born: human, beast folks, water people, demons, elven folks, dwarves, halflings, humanoid, and every other race.
On the fifth day, the Father of Creation bestowed magic to every race he created, even assigned the Leader of each of them to govern each country they lived in, and gifted them magic.
On the sixth day, the Father of Creation decided to move on and create another planet, leaving the authority to the Archons and Celestial Beasts.
Like any other villain in any other story, the Ancient Serpent, the dweller of Black Void, corrupted the minds of the most accessible creatures it could find, the humans. It bestowed the forbidden magic to the Leader of the humans, the Great Sage, and used him as a tool to spread the serpents' evilness, summoning its minions and destroying the beauty of the world of harmony.
The once peaceful Orion was tainted by the blood of those who fought hard to protect their beloved planet. Celestial Beasts were hunted down, and the Elemental Archons were executed in public.
Leaders of the other races formed an alliance to stop the humans, but the Sage's power was too much for them, and with just one click of the Sage's finger, they disappeared.
The occupant of Orion suffered under the tyranny of humans and the Great Sage, who became the king of the world.
At last, with a thread of luck, the prayers that had been blocked for centuries went through to the Father of Creations.
The Father of Creation finally heard the cries of his children and was devastated seeing his beloved planet was completely surrounded by the corruption of His infinite enemy. With his last surviving card, the Leader of demons who miraculously survived, he bestowed an incredible power on him to defeat the raging Ancient Serpent puppets.
Azrael, the son of the former Demon Leader Azazel, led all the races against the Great Sage and declared war.
Magic collided, strength was tested, the sounds of metals hitting each other, and the roar of beasts were heard all around Orion.
The war lasted for years, and Azrael, the demon leader, finally killed the Sage. But Azrael was heavily wounded, poisoned by dark magic. He freed everyone from tyranny's grasp, thus earning the title of king.
But Azrael didn't want fame or the title. He wanted freedom not only for his kind but for everyone.
When everyone thought they were finally free, the Ancient Serpent was not done yet with Orion. As its venom, the dark magic secretly spreading Azrael's body, the pending doom was yet to begin again. The curse of the Ancient Serpent spread against Azrael's kin. It's just a matter of time before the Ancient Serpent will gain a new follower to do his bidding.
Knowing about the impending doom, Azrael met up with Hilrey Komoguth, an ancient dark elf knowledgeable of forbidden ancient magic, to ask to seal him and his kin.
"Are you certain about your decision, Azrael? What has been done will never be undone."
"Please do it. Do it while I still have control of my body," Azrael begged.
They wrapped the holy chain around Azrael's body along with his trusted elven. As Hilrey and his people secured each end of the holy chain, Azrael's body started to emit black smoke as he started to scream.
Hilrey ordered his people to stay awayfrom Azrael as he saw a black snake coiled around Azrael. Its red eyes were staring at Hilrey, trying to hypnotize him.
"Sneaky Warden." The snake said, seeing it couldn't hypnotize Hilrey.
"I figured out you would appear here. Just like your term, I appeared here only for you. Ancient Serpent, the enemy of Orion! Your evilness will end today with me!"
Hilrey immediately performed the ritual to activate one of the strongest magic that ever existed in Orion. As he channeled his mana around the holy chain, the ancient snake tried to use its remaining power against the old dark Elf, but it was futile as a glowing circle appeared where Azrael was sitting and chained.
"Divine Prison!" the snake screamed as Azrael's body slowly pulled by, becoming a golden and alive chain in the glowing circle. "You'll spend all your mana, Elf, and you will die, too. Stop it while you still can!"
"I have been waiting for you to step on my grasp, Serpent. What you did to Orion, corrupting humans and creating havoc, your sins had piled up. As Azrael volunteered to be imprisoned in Divine Prison, your gateway in Orion will be closed starting today," Hilrey said, his body slowly vanishing.
"Evil will prevail, Elf. I will make sure of that!" The ancient Serpent vanished away, not wanting to be imprisoned in the Devin Prison, where most of its allies were being tortured.
The Ancient Serpent would rather stay in his black void than stay in that prison.
"But my curse has already flowed to this wrecked bloodline-"
"I already arranged something about that matter. Your evilness will end now."
The snake smirked.
"We'll see, Warden of Prisons. We will see."
Eons has past, and Orion's occupants had already forgotten about Orion's Great battle and how Azrael sacrificed and the sins of the human Great Sage.
Kings of every kingdom started hunting demons for unknown reasons, destroying their homes. Demons were forced to flee their land in fear of the knights and shadow dwellers hunting for them.
"Are you sure this is the demon child with vision, Keiran?" A hooded person appeared in front of Keiran's house.
"Yes, grandma. She told me about a hero who will appear here soon," Keiran told her.
"Good. You need to protect her and make sure someone will save the hero. I heard Cain's group will summon otherworlder tonight. If we're lucky, one of them might be the hero."
"Understood, Grandma."
"I sense the presence of that evil Sage, Keiran, and we need to act before his evil power will be restored. Hilrey-sama didn't sacrifice himself for nothing."
Meanwhile,
As the night arrived, at the capital of the kingdom of Korra. Inside the castle at the office of the king's adviser, Alexander Coroy.
He massaged his forehead and turned his gaze towards the man wearing full body armor in front of his desk. "How's the mission, Captain Callan?"
Callan removed his helmet, revealing his jet-black hair and a pair of sharp gazing black eyes.
"All the members of the new magus federation were eliminated. However, Based on the situation in the summoning room, someone made it their first, slain them, and killed our ambushers inside the forest next to the base."
"Did they manage to summon one?"
Callan chuckled at the question and instantly covered his mouth as if Alexander let out a humorous joke. "Forgive me, sir. I don't think they did. Even the best mages in the kingdom can't. How come low-tier mages like them could?"
Herbert paused for a second and nodded. "You have a point. Now, I'm giving you the responsibility to locate the Sage's grimoire. We can't afford to let anybody else get their hands on that dangerous demonic book. That book is the embodiment of catastrophe itself."
Callan bowed. "Consider it done, Sir."
Somehow, someone behind the Ancient Serpent was smirking...
