After the war between the Triumvirate and the Reverend, there was a brief moment of peace in the world. As the Triumvirate gained power and became the center of the world, they made it clear that they would not tolerate any chaos or war in any part of the world. Anyone who violated this law would be punished.

Mountgrand, a city far from the Triumvirate Capital, is gearing up for its first major horse racing event. People from all over are looking forward to witnessing the event.
Erin is a well-known name in the horse racing community and the best in the business. He has a reputation for winning races gracefully and effortlessly. His popularity extends beyond the racing community, especially among women.
Van, Erin's best friend, is also a horse racing enthusiast. He is excited about the upcoming race but also a bit nervous. He knows that Erin is a formidable competitor, and he jokes with his friend, asking him to take it easy on him during the race.
Erin responds with a smile, telling Van to do his best. He knows that his friend is a skilled jockey, and he wants to compete against the best.
As the race begins, the excitement in the air is intense.
Van takes the lead early on, and Erin follows closely behind. The two jockeys are neck and neck. However, as they near the finish line, Erin's horse suddenly speeds up, and he takes the lead, crossing the finish line first.
Erin's fans go wild with excitement. They rush to congratulate him. Van approaches him, hoping to share in the celebration, but Erin ignores him, and Van feels a little annoyed.
The second part of the race begins, and Erin takes the lead early on. He is far ahead of his opponents, but Van is determined not to give up.
The two jockeys are neck and neck again, and the race is just as intense as the first part.
As they approach the finish line, Van is about to cross it first, but Erin's horse suddenly hits him cause him to fall.
Erin wins the race again, and his fans gather around him, cheering and celebrating.
Van is full of jealousy and anger, and he approaches Erin, pushing his way through the crowd.
Van grabs Erin's clothes and lifts him effortlessly, displaying incredible strength. Erin is terrified as he observes the fury in Van's eyes.
He is also shocked by his friend's extraordinary power, which appears to exceed human capacity.
The people around them got so scared and ran away, leaving the two friends alone.
Van throws him hard and almost knocks him unconscious.
The guards try to intervene, but they're no match for Van's strength. Erin is left to recover from the attack, surrounded by his fans.
Van is being so furious. People started to think that Van was being possessed by a demon.
During a recent event, some of the citizens present began to call out for help from both the Triumvirate and the Reverend.
As it turned out, they were unable to stop Van from wreaking havoc until the Triumvirate officials arrived on the scene. Fortunately, Eurian, along with several soldiers, stepped forward to help restrain Van.
To reassure the frightened people, Eurian spoke up and said,
"Don't worry. The Triumvirate is here to help you."
Eurian then proceeded to confront Van and punched him hard. Despite the impact, Van stood up seemingly unfazed by Eurian's attack.
Van then ran towards Eurian at lightning speed and tackled him, causing him to fall to the ground. Van proceeded to punch Eurian repeatedly, almost breaking his skin and revealing his robotic face.
However, Eurian did not show any signs of distress. Instead, he smiled and pushed Van away with all his strength, allowing him to stand up.
As Eurian rose to his feet, his skin magically regenerated and returned to normal. He then approached Van and beat him mercilessly until Van lost consciousness.
Meanwhile, Baxter and Shin were on their way to the scene, but Baxter noticed that the Triumvirate had already arrived.
In response, Baxter and Shin decided to hide and stay out of sight.
"Why are they here? What could they possibly want?"
As Eurian issued his orders, the soldiers took Van into custody and brought him to the Triumvirate. The people were stunned by what they witnessed and seemed grateful to Eurian for taking action.
They also seemed to believe that the Triumvirate had no involvement in the recent reports of missing people in the cities.
"Don't worry, we will take care of this. If you require any further assistance, I, Eurian, will be happy to help," Eurian assured the people.
Shin overheard Eurian's words and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head. He was reminded of the times when he had confronted Eurian.
"Shin? Are you all right? We need to leave," Baxter said.
"No," Shin replied, unable to control his anger, and headed straight for Eurian. With Shin's incredible speed, Baxter didn't even see him approach Eurian.
"Shin!"
the people exclaimed in shock and fear as they witnessed the Damion race in action once more.
"You! You did this! You are the reason Van was possessed by a demon!"
the people shouted at Shin in anger. Enraged, they began to hurl stones at Shin and forced him to retreat.
"Hey, look! There's still a Damion left. Are you the one responsible for all of this?" Eurian asked Shin.
"Where are my parents?" Shin demanded.
Eurian was taken aback by Shin's question and approached him with curiosity.
"Your parents? Haha, you're delirious, demon. You'd better come with us so we can discuss your problem."
Shin glared at Eurian with fury. "I'll repeat my question. Where are my parents?"
Eurian tried to deceive Shin into joining his side. "Relax, I told you to come with me. Maybe you'll see your parents there."
Shin remained unwavering and refused to follow Eurian.
However, Baxter intervened and stopped him.
"Chris!"
Eurian was surprised.
"Oh? Someone from the Triumvirate? Hahaha, Baxter! this is quite the spectacle."
He grinned mischievously. "Is the Reverend working now with a demon? And your name is Chris?"
Baxter charged towards Eurian to stop him, but Eurian was too quick. He threw a punch at Baxter, but Baxter managed to block it with his Divine Shield Power, which is his specialty.
The people were bewildered and ran away as they couldn't comprehend what was happening.
"No one is getting away!" Eurian shouted at the crowd.
"Bear witness to the Reverend, who is deceiving us by negotiating with demons to destroy our unity!"
"Don't believe what he says!" Baxter countered.
Eurian laughed loudly and attacked Baxter again. With Eurian's speed and strength, he almost shattered Baxter's Divine Shield Power.
"There is nothing you can do, Reverend," Eurian taunted.
He punched Baxter hard and sent him flying. Amid all the chaos, Eurian let out a loud laugh, feeling satisfied that he had managed to turn the Reverend against the people.
However, his moment of glory was short-lived as he did not realize that Shin was standing right behind him, fuming with anger for what Eurian had done to Baxter.
"Oi"
Without warning, Shin grabbed Eurian by the head and hurled him away with great force, catching Eurian mid-air and delivering a powerful punch that almost broke his skin.
Eurian's body was quick to regenerate, but Shin was not deterred. He punched Eurian again, sending him flying through the air once more.
Eurian was startled by Shin's incredible strength, unable to even land a single blow on him despite his speed.
Shin, consumed by his anger, released a Demon Aura that caused the people around him to freeze in place, including the Triumvirate soldiers and Van.
Eurian, struggling to move asked. "Who are you? How did you become so powerful?"
But Shin was not interested in answering his questions.
"It doesn't matter. It's over."
He grabbed Eurian and was about to finish him off when Eurian pleaded with him, "Wait a minute! What I'm saying is true. I can help you with your problem."
However, before Eurian could finish his sentence,
Shin slammed him into the ground with such force that it created a deep crater.
Shin, sensing the presence of a demon, turned his attention to Van and approached him slowly.
The Demon Aura continued to hold the people in its grip, but it began to dissipate as Baxter called out to Shin. "Shin!" "Cheon-Shin!" he shouted, hoping to bring him back to his senses.
His cries worked, and Shin regained his focus, allowing the people to move once more. The soldiers, still in shock, rushed towards Eurian, leaving Van behind as they did so.
Shin's attention was fully consumed by the recent events that took place, and he failed to notice when Eurian sneaked aboard their Quinn Jet and made a quick escape.
As soon as Shin realized what had happened, he prepared to follow them, but Baxter intervened and stopped him. "That's enough, Shin," he said in a firm tone.
The chaos and destruction caused by Shin's actions had left the people around them terrified and traumatized.
Amidst the confusion, Van, who was under the influence of a demonic force, got up behind Shin and let out a maniacal laugh. "Hahaha! Pitiful humans!" he exclaimed, filled with malice.
Without wasting any time, Baxter drew out his Divine Shield and took a defensive stance, ready to face Van. However, Shin instinctively turned around and stood between them, halting Baxter in his actions.
Van was surprised by Shin's sudden appearance.
He fell to his knees and muttered, "You came back for us."
But Shin ignored his words and immediately placed his left hand on Van's shoulder and his right hand on his heart.
He pulled out the evil spirit, which emerged from Van's chest like a dark cloud, screaming and wailing so loudly that it hurt the ears of those around them.
When Shin sealed it completely, it dissipated into his necklace and vanished.
Van, exhausted from the ordeal, passed out.
Shin placed his hand on Van's chest again, and he started to pray silently.
The people lost for words by what they saw as his hands began to glow with a yellow aura.
Baxter was equally stunned but managed to keep his composure and stop the people from interfering.
After Shin had finished praying, Van was still unconscious.
Shin stood up, looking sad and regretful for what had happened. Erin ran towards Shin and shouted at him,
"What did you do to Van you demon?! leave this place!"
Baxter intervened "Let's go Shin."
but before they could do anything, Van suddenly woke up.
"Thank you," Van said to Shin, surprising everyone around. Erin was surprised by Van's sudden recovery "Van? are you ok?"
"I'm sorry Erin. I was jealous of you. But I couldn't remember anything else."
The inexplicable events and the fear they had instilled in the people caused them to let Baxter and Shin go without further questioning.
But one man witnessed all the events and actions of Shin and was amazed at what he did. He wants to work with Shin and be his friend.
"He's cool. But he's out of control. Maybe I should help him?"
