"DING!"
"CONRATULATION HOSTS FOR AWAKENING THE SERAPHEL SYSTEM!!!"
As more and more Alvaryan died, at some time something strange happened, the surviving last were encased by white light and the solider that were bold enough to make a move and slashed or pierced at them were swallowed by white light in return and reduced to ash. Instantly the other solider were horrified and began to show panic.
After some time, the light suddenly expanded and formed different shape each, some transformed into something of a hybrid between arachne and a dragon, they all had five eyes, additionally to their originals ones there was three in their forehead with one vertically in the center, and these eyes are not that of the arachnid but that of reptilian, two horns poke out of their forehead, they also have wing coming out of their back, and their hands became clawed like that of a dragon. Two new arm grew under their normal ones, combined with the wings growing in their back, they looked like a spider, if not for the membrane on the wings. White scale also appeared, covering part of their shoulders, chest, the back of their hand and there are also some sparse in their neck. They were all of a vivid lustrous white in color, but their sclera are as black as an ink and their iris of a golden color.
This is their ancestral inheritance left by their god as a last resort to avoid the annihilation of their clan, they were provided with a system! And with it a primal battle instinct that repress and restrain their emotion and mind leaving them as purely going by their instinct, to protect their mind and avoid them from breaking down from the pain of transforming, they then become the perfect killing machine, granting them a hope for survival.
The Seraphel system, a creation of the last god of the Alvaryan, Aetheron! Aetheron is known by all as the most powerful god in his era, he can be said to be the peak of this world, he was also known for his unrivaled intellect, and he created many spell and technique. It was also rumored that he also mastered an intermediate space ability and can teleport everywhere. But there was something that absolutely no one know, Aetheron was a reincarnator.
He was someone from a modern planet called blue star, where everyone can attempt to awaken their innate gene or to inject new gene through their body to awaken. In that world he was but an unsuspecting young man, then he was killed by the most miserable way, he just happened to pass in front of the line of shoot of an assassin right when he pulled the trigger, and poof he reincarnated here, as the third prince of that time.
He was thrilled at first as he remembered the story he used to read, were the protagonist, receive super cool golden finger, like a system or something the like, and sure enough, it arrived, he has a ultra-computing brain! He achieved everything through that, learning the essence of spell, their function, then creating variation of new one, searching new spell, the same for formation, he even found a way to immortality! But for that, he needed to dispose of his mortal body and breakthrough by the power of his will alone, and then only can he tread the way to immortality, that was the rule of this world.
But how was he going to refine his will? It was then that he remembered the system in the book he read. What if he split his will through every subject under him? Everyone is bound to endure hardship in their live. But what would the accumulation of it brought to the mind? Then another problem arose, how will the kingdom be protected if he isn't there? It's when the other gods became desperate to the point of giving up life that he had a struck of genius, if he just kill these powerful enemy, what would it be if he wasn't there, even if weaken, the kingdom shouldn't possibly be facing an existential level disaster right? So at the end of the battle after making sure all the powerful enemy, he divided his will into many and made a mechanism that automatically gather the scattered will at the death of the hosts, and in this world ravaged by wars, the will is constantly be tempered. Everything had gone well, the war still continued and the will of soldiers are tempered in the face of death.
He didn't foresee thought that that would just happen for five years and stopped, the refinement of his will slowed considerably, so slow that he even had to go dormant to maintain the state of his will since he was still weak after defeating the other gods. Until now, when he suddenly perceived the death of many Alvaryan, he was roused awake. And only now also did he know that many many years have passed since he went to slumber. Before he could begin his existential crisis, he noticed a change the soul of the deceased were directed to somewhere he can't perceive yet, fortunately his split will were still returning to him, otherwise he wouldn't know what to do! As he began to sense the life force around him, he was stunned again, he thought that the death he sensed was the reprise of the war, so he wasn't surprised, but it seems like he was wrong, terribly wrong!! It wasn't war but a massacre of his clan, a total massacre !! They can barely fight back. He immediately initiated the Seraphel System, it was a byproduct of his experiment with his will back then. It take control of the host for a limited time, and awaken the slumbering potential of the host's bloodline.
As Aetheron began the awakening of his clansmen, the soldier, upon seeing the Seraphel were horrified. But didn't panic thinking that it was just a change in appearance and that they were the same as before, like lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
But when they prepared to continue killing these people, they were the one that were beginning to be slaughtered instead. In an instant many solider died under the counterattack of the Alvarya leaving behind decapitated and dismembered corps. They were barely able to suppress the Alvarya by rallying fifty solider to fight one so they were able to stabilize the situation to an extent, but they weren't able to capture them alive anymore because these Alvaryan were fighting fiercely till the bitter end, even the already captured ones were able to break their binding to fight again.
"WHAT ARE THESE THINGS!?" exclaimed a fleeing solider.
The lone soldiers were beginning to flee toward where there were group of solider already forming counterattack. But there were many unlucky one, who were killed before they can react, some were even frozen by panic.
The survivor among the nightshroud were the most fearsome one, the army can't even delay their advance at all, the more that tried to stop them the more that were killed, but what can they do? They had to fight for their live!
The one that the army in the capital were most afraid of is the "monster" that the head of the nightshroud transformed into, Xerathin!
