Chapter 1, The End and a New Beginning
Explosions and cries of despair echoed everywhere.
Demon Emperor Asura, today you will die a terrible death.
Asura: Hmm, you 9 constellations think that poisoning me will kill you? Naive fools.
Swarm (Chapter 9 constellations): Today the entire world has united to kill you. You are insanely strong, but today is the day of your death.
Asura: Pathetic insects.
With these words, Asura began the battle.
Explosions echoed everywhere, mountains turned to dust, the earth crumbled, and the sky grew more expensive.
The battle lasted for 21 days.
Roy: How, how can you be so strong?
Roy was in despair. Of the nine constellations, he was the only one left. All had suffered a terrible death. The bodies of each of the dead constellations were horribly mangled. One had his ribs torn out along with his entrails, another had all his limbs torn off before being killed, and the rest suffered similar deaths.
However, due to the god-killing poison, Asura was also in terrible condition.
Asura's arm was torn off, his eyes were gouged out, and blood was pouring from every orifice.
Asura: Well done, you really managed to bring me to this state, hahahaha.
Asura let out a mad laugh, it seemed the whole world trembled from his laughter.
Roy: It doesn't matter, the important thing is that you will die, and future generations will live without fear for their future.
Asura: Naive fool, do you think I'll let the world live if I die?
No!, it will die with me.
Roy: Stop, bastard!
Roy moved toward Asura with lightning speed, but he didn't make it in time. Asura gathered all his life energy, mixed it with his demonic chi, and detonated his body.
The explosion was enormous, destroying the swarm in an instant. The explosion expanded and consumed everything in its path.
Two hours later, the explosion destroyed all life on the planet.
Meanwhile
(Text in * indicates thoughts)
Asura: *I didn't think they could force me to detonate myself, and now I'll have to find a new world and start over*
In the void, Asura's soul traveled for an unknown amount of time until it finally found a suitable world.
Asura: *Finally, now I need to act quickly, lest the world cause irreparable harm to my soul*
Asura's soul moved at incredible speed. Finally, after 20 minutes of travel, he found an unremarkable village. A minute later, he found a boy sleeping under a tree. The boy had short black hair and a rather ordinary face, not handsome, but not ugly either. Asura attacked his soul without hesitation. A moment later, Asura and the child found themselves in the sea of souls.
Boy: What's going on! Where am I!?
Asura didn't say anything and simply attacked his soul. After a moment, the boy began to experience terrible pain.
Boy: Please, let me live.
The boy sobbed and begged for his life, but Asura didn't care; he'd done worse than absorbing a child's soul.
A couple of minutes later, Asura finished absorbing the child's soul and memories.
Asura: *haha, what a coincidence, his name is also Asura, he's an ordinary orphan. This world is quite interesting. There are two types of power, knights and mages. I wonder how to become one? But never mind, first I need to get my body in order so I can use my demonic arts.
Asura smiled in anticipation. I hope this world doesn't disappoint him.

Explanation: The soul sea is where the soul is stored. The stronger a person is, the stronger their soul sea.
