It happens more than three thousand years ago, it was after I performed the reincarnation spell on you. Well, I was furious back then, just after I finished, I went straight to your little world. It was at that time I first meet your best friend Nui, we chat briefly before I started searching for Grimm and Lumis location.
Finally succeeding locating them, I went straight there, shortly after we start fighting. I had the upper hand in our exchange I even managed to gravely injure them but when I wanted to finish them I was attacked by Aatox, Elliam, and Kratos.
Quickly it becomes 5 Vs 1, Even if I'm stronger than them individually when they joined hands it becomes impossible to kill the two, our fight was fierce, trading an arm I managed to also injured Aatox and Elliam before hastily retreating, I know that if I stubbornly insisted on killing Lumis and Grimm, I will probably sustain a big injury or in the worse case I may die and besides most of the blood essence I suck from you were used to regenerate, even with that I'm still gravely injured.
Knowing that I choose to retreat back to Ethernasia. It's said that for a gentleman Ten years are not long for revenge.
En route, I suddenly spew blood, staggering, I started to lose my sight, my sense of self is slowly eaten away by something. Suddenly there is a voice in my head, hearing this voice I feel chill down upon my spine.
' It futile, stop struggling, let yourself go, I mean no harm, you're suppressing your true self, you're more power... '
'' Shut up! I will never listen to you ''
'Chuckle! I hope you won't regret it in the future, my...'
'' Fuck off, I won't let you out, you're too dangerous '' I shouted furiously.
Well, You don't know but, it was not me that you first saw when you brought me back, it someone else, no, something extremely dangerous. If it was me back then why would I kill you?

Emea was astonished.
''You don't have to be astonished, it was that thing that comes out just after you succeeded with your Resurrection Spell, he's responsible of your death, he even wanted to swallow your soul, I just managed to regain control over my body at that time successfully stopping him before he manages to assimilate your soul. It was after that I performed the reincarnation spell.''
Emea started trembling, I wrapped my arms around her comforting her, she finally understood the reason for her death. After calming her I continued.
Even myself I don't know what that thing is, but he gives me a dangerous vibe like if I let him take over my body, I will lose myself forever. This thing is filled with nothing but destruction and dominance. If it ever comes a day I let him take over my body, I will lose everything dear to me, I will probably destroy everything, I don't know if it because of the reincarnation spell but that thing is whispering to me that I'm powerful than what I think, I have to let my true self come out.
Finally, I managed to seal him but I know it an only temporary solution, I don't even know what I am. I'm nor alive nor I'm dead, my species is probably unheard of, this racial change wants to transform me into something I'm not. I remember a sage from a mysterious world say: '' I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.''
This sage is indeed right, I will choose what I will become, I will become the strongest not for vanity but only to protect myself and does dear to me. I vowed to control that thing one day not to let him control me. I'm me, nothing more, nothing less.
Continuing my story.
After I successfully managed not to succumb to that thing temptation. I was completely exhausted, dragging my exhausted body I entered Ethernasia, I fell unconscious in a forest. I woke up three days later, having recovered to some extent I started wandering around, exploring the forest, and at the same time considering my options: Firstly it impossible for me to enact my revenge on Lumis and Grimm with those three there. I'm not that conceited to think that I can kill the two while fighting against the others.

Secondly, they have their own creation, I'm talking about the race those two created, they are proud of them from what I heard. Wait! why not create my own race? I suddenly thought this.
Wonderful idea! like that, I can start my revenge from there. Hehehe! I bet they will come out on their own if I almost exterminate their creations, like that I can kill them then. Good, it is like killing two birds with one stone, firstly I will exterminate their creations, this can be considered as a bonus and secondly, when they come out to avenge them I will use this chance to kill the two, I'm talking about Lumis and Grimm.
While I'm laughing at my own ingenuity, I heard the sound of approaching people, even when they masked their presences not to be detected from what I can tell, I still detect it, it one of my racial characteristics, I'm extremely sensitive, my spiritual perception is really big, a radius of Two kilometers. It seems they are running from something, one kilometer behind them is another group of people moving in the same direction as the first people.
I hastily shifted to the void, thus masking my presence but I can still see what is happening outside. In short, it is like I was there but not at the same time, I'm in another dimension, it's a small dimension, isolated from Ethernasia world.
Shortly, two peoples wearing cloaks show up not too far from my position, no, that not correct, they are three but the third person was on the back of the tallest between the first two, the three are probably one man and two women. Suddenly, the man looks in my direction but after some time he didn't detect anything but he waited for a while before choosing to continue forward.
Interesting, what a good instinct he has, I thought nobody can detect me. I'm sure that I completely erased my presence from this world but he still feels that something was amiss, Truly a Good instinct, he is really powerful this man but he seems seriously injured, the woman on his back is already dead, she died not too long ago, her soul is still present, lingering around the two seemed as she is guardian them, the small woman seems injured as well.
' Oh! Why not help them, like that I can use this chance to know the situation on the continent and get some pieces of information as well' while I was thinking that, the people chasing after them caught up, it's probably because the man waited for few minutes when he was checking on my position.
'' Dad, What are we going to do? We are completely surrounded, ' asked the small woman. Her voice is really tempting like a natural-born Seductress, I'm sure that she a beauty capable of toppling a country even if I don't personally see her appearance.
The man answer in self depressing voice: '' Sorry sweetie, daddy is really useless, I can't even protect my most loved wife, betrayed by my own sons, I was forced to flee, now I'm about to lose you too. Sigh! I'm tired. '' The man is blaming himself.
'' Don't worry Dad, I love you the most, I will never betray you, Don't be sad, Mom won't like it if she was still here '' the small woman comforted his dad.
'' Interesting, what a sad story but nonetheless I'm moved by it. I will help them. '' I mumbled to myself.
'' Lucifer! Obediently surrender, let yourself be arrested, you're totally surrounded, think about Nemesis. You're not any longer the ruthless and mighty Lucifer, you're just a pathetic runaway. '' said the commander of the men encircling the Three. They are all-powerful men.
'What a vicious mouth, you I don't like you at all' It's what I thought after hearing what the commander just said.
