Etern's hands trembled as the last remnants of his former power ignited within him. The celestial expanse that surrounded him was no longer the peaceful place he had once called home, the High Angels Garden Dungeon. The delicate balance of life and death, light and darkness, was shattered — his exile, the greatest betrayal ever committed against him, had transformed him from a benign guardian to a creature of vengeance. From the Exiled Seraph to something far darker: the Power Devourer. His aura, once full of divinity and grace, now pulsed with raw destructive energy. Each breath he took sent ripples through the dungeon, disturbing the very fabric of existence.
Etern's once radiant and regal wings had darkened, now giving off a shadowy glow, as if every feather was a piece of extinguished light. His entire being oozed the torment and resentment that had settled deep into his heart after years of being blamed for a crime he did not commit.

The dungeon echoed in unison, trembling with the essence of his anger. Every inch of the High Angels Garden reacted to Etern's ascension. Celestial energy coiled like a living beast around him, infusing him with unnatural power. Etern, once a being of pure divine harmony, was now corrupted by his vengeance.
With nothing but rage at his side, Etern reached the heart of the dungeon, a place no mortal dared enter, where even the most valiant gods had failed. This was the Abyss of the Seraphs, the darkest part of the garden. The creatures here were imbued with shadows, each a twisted version of the celestial beings who had once maintained the balance of light.
Etern had no plans to redeem himself. His thoughts were consumed by one singular idea: destruction. This dungeon had once been his prison. No longer. It would become a tool, a deadly weapon forged in the very heart of revenge.
"Let them come," Etern whispered. "One by one, I will break them. Their power will be mine to consume."
Etern's dungeon began to change, evolving into something far more dangerous than its original celestial form. A new system emerged, one shaped by Etern's newfound abilities, allowing him to evolve it endlessly. The dungeon would continue to grow stronger with every adventurer that entered, becoming an insidious tool for his own twisted goals.
System Update:
Dungeon Classification: "Dangerous" → "Bane"
Dungeon has grown in strength. Increased encounter frequency with Corrupted Seraphim.*
With each adventurer that dared set foot in this now-mad realm, Etern's Power Devourer ability grew stronger. Souls were siphoned away, drawn into his very being like nourishing energy, further distorting the balance of power within the dungeon. From Level 2000, Etern now felt on the verge of something greater—a force he could never have imagined before.
Etern grinned, a twisted expression that reflected his madness. He could see the future of his wrath unfolding, and no one would escape. Whether they were powerful or weak didn't matter. They would all serve as fuel for his ever-growing desire for vengeance.
Meanwhile, the dungeon became an even more treacherous labyrinth. The old gateways crumbled, replaced with greater obstacles, cunning traps, and invincible guardians born from the very energy Etern absorbed. His new ability, Power Devourer, allowed him to harness the strength of each defeated adversary, making him ever more potent.
As Etern grew in strength, the very existence of The High Angels Garden Dungeon shifted. It became an ever-changing, dimensional nightmare, a true labyrinth of the mind and soul. The celestial landscape warped into a terrifying kaleidoscope of destruction and rebirth—an environment where the laws of physics no longer applied, and the consequences of failure were swift and brutal.
