Since childhood, I had always been fascinated by ghosts, magic, dragons, elves, and things like that.
Because I believed that these things were not just stories… they might actually exist.
I used to think—what if I had a superpower?
A power that would allow me to control ghosts and make them do whatever I wanted.
Whenever I talked about such things, people would laugh at me.
After all, who believes in such things in today's world?
At the same time, I worshipped Lord Shiva, the God of death.
It is said by sages that whatever you ask from Him, you receive.
Today, I am about to turn 17 years old…
but nothing like that ever happened.
Although, over the years, I did learn about many things—
like Kundalini awakening and the power of the five elements.
Today, I was going to the market to buy things for my birthday…
Suddenly, a truck came rushing at high speed.
The driver was shouting,
"Move aside! The brakes have failed!"
Panic spread everywhere. People started running.
At that very moment, someone pushed me…
and I fell right in front of the truck.
Amid the loud noise, I couldn't hear anything clearly.
I thought… this was the end.
The truck hit me and moved ahead.
Blood was flowing from my body, and darkness began to cover my vision.
At that moment… I felt like both laughing and crying.
Crying—because I had never done anything meaningful in my life,
and yet I was dying like this.
Laughing—because my birthday had turned into my death day.
Heh…
As I was dying, I made a final wish to God—
"If I am given another life…
then I don't want to die weak like this again.
Next time, I want to become so powerful…
that I will never need anyone else to save me."
Scene: Reincarnation — A New World
"Huh…? Am I alive…?"
"The Queen has given birth to twin children!"
"Huh… what are these voices…?"
Where am I…?
Why are my hands so small…?
My legs… my body… it feels like I'm a child.
Wait…
Was I… reincarnated?
Why are these people staring at me like that…?
"He has black hair!"
Huh? What does that mean…?
"And look! There's something like an eye on the prince's forehead!"
An eye…?
What are they talking about…?
Where am I…?
And how can I understand their language…?
( Six Years Later )
In these six years, I have learned many things.
This kingdom is called Aryavart.
Here, humans and demi-humans live together.
My father is the King of this land.
In this world, black hair is very rare…
and those who have it are said to be powerful.
I also have black hair, which is why the King loves me dearly.
For some reason, I can understand the language of this world.
I also have a younger brother, born just moments after me.
I love him very much… he is very cute.
There is one more thing—
I possess many abilities.
I can control the five elements—
air, fire, water, lightning, and earth.
My wounds heal automatically.
And above all…
I have a third eye on my forehead.
But it has not opened yet.
I don't know what it does.
"Prince, today we will go outside," my maid said.
"Oh… wow!"
"Maid, who are those people?"
"Prince, they are demons."
"What… demons?"
"Yes, Prince."
"In this world, there is a pact between humans and demons."
"A pact?"
"It is said that there exists an entity…
the same entity that killed the current Demon Lord's father."
"It devours humans… many have died because of it."
"That is why humans and demons made an agreement—
until that entity is destroyed,
they will work together."
"I see… then what does that entity look like?
And where does it live?"
"No one knows, Prince.
It is said that it appears once every ten years…
and no one has ever been able to defeat it."
"Many
die whenever it appears."
(Oh… so this is the main enemy…)
(If it is that powerful… then I must become even stronger than it.)
