In the beginning, there was only the Void—an infinite, suffocating blackness. From this silence, two primordial lights ignited: the Ancient Gods, Haxus and Xylo. They were the architects of the beginning, followed by thirteen lesser lights that birthed the progenitors of every race: Angels, Fairies, Merfolk, Giants, and the last, most fragile addition—Humans.
To serve as their divine proxies, the Ancients forged the Ten Archangels. These beings were infused with so much godly essence that they were deities in all but name. Among them stood the elite: Michael, Gabriel, Adrian, and the most brilliant of all—Lucifer.
But brilliance breeds ambition.
Lucifer, weary of the shackles of servitude, spent eons condensing his power. When he finally struck against the Heavens, the clash shook the foundations of reality. He failed. Cast out and stripped of his divinity, he tumbled through the dimensions until he hit the bottom of existence.
There, the Universe did something unexpected. It didn't let him die. Instead, it recognized his malice. The Void granted him a new, corrupted energy: Demonic Essence. Lucifer didn't just survive; he evolved. He became First Demon, the God of the Demons, and from his own shadow, he birthed the Demon Race.
A millennium passed.
Lucifer led his legion back to the gates of the Ancients. The 1st Great War was a slaughterhouse of light and shadow. As the tide turned and the Ancient Gods moved to seal Lucifer away forever, He looked at his infant son, Ezekiel, and made a final, desperate gamble.
He didn't give his son a weapon or a kingdom. He gave him a cage—and a key.
With the last of his strength, Lucifer bypassed the laws of the Universe and carved a mechanical sequence directly into Zeke's soul.
[SYSTEM INITIALIZED...]
[CORE SEAL: ACTIVE]
[RACE DATA: HIDDEN]
[STATUS: HUMAN (ZERO)]
Zeke was cast into the human world, his memories erased and his power locked behind a digital firewall. As the seal on Lucifer's prison snapped shut, a final cosmic anomaly occurred: the Blue Fox Spirit, a gift from the universe itself, dove into the fading light of the ritual. It didn't just follow Zeke; it fused with the System's very code.
The prince of the demons was now a "Zero" in a world of Mana and abilities, unaware that the very soul within him was a ticking time bomb of celestial proportions.
