Loading... please wait.

I was born into this world of nothingness and darkness.

I came into this world only to know one thing.

And that was; Grow stronger, by devouring.

A voice inside my head always reminded me of that goal.

 

「Devour! Devour! Devour! Devour! DEVOUR!!!」

 

But, what could I possibly devour?

The huge mountain?

The statue of the woman?

Or my Kin?

All I knew was, that I needed to devour what I possibly could.

I tried holding my desire back at first, but that just made it worse.

At one point I almost lost my mind completely.

That was when I gave in to that voice inside my head.

And ever since, I've never felt any better.

 

At first, I was reluctant to kill and devour my own kin.

But when I first got the taste of the power I got from it, I simply couldn't stop myself.

It was like a drug to me.

Something I simply couldn't live without.

Something that was a necessity for me to survive.

It was the only thing that made me feel good in this hellhole where I was born in.

 

I quickly began to gain power, and establish myself in this world.

Over the course of a couple of hundred years, I became known as a monster Emperor.

At the same time, a sort of hierarchy was founded.

At the bottom of the hierarchy, was, of course, the food, known as regular monsters.

These monsters were the ones that seemed to be summoned by that mysterious statue of a woman on top of the mountain.

The second-lowest rank was called monster Knights.

Unlike the regular monsters, the monster Knights were used as cannon fodder in wars between the powerful monsters.

In the middle of the hierarchy, existed what's called monster Commander.

These monsters are vicious and cold.

They're the ones that control the monster Knights during the wars.

The rank higher than the monster Commander was the monster, Baron.

Unlike the monster Commanders that controlled a couple of thousand monster Knights, the monster Barons controlled hundreds of thousands of monster Knights.

However, even higher up in the hierarchy came the monster Duke.

The monster Duke's job was to each control a portion of monster Barons, while also giving advice to the monster King, which was one rank above the monster Duke.

Of course, the monster King's job was to control the dukes, wage wars, and do the bidding of the monster Emperor.

 

Above the monster, King was the monster Emperor rank.

However, until now, there's only been one monster Emperor.

And that one is me, and I'm known as the monster Emperor of Bloodlust, or monster Emperor Chiron.

Of course, it's possible for another monster Emperor to appear at any moment.

I'm not careless enough to believe I'm the strongest forever.

 

Every time I wage war, I say these 5 sentences inside my head.

I didn't get here because I'm lucky.

I didn't get here because I hesitated.

I didn't get here because I showed mercy to my enemies.

I got here because of my need to survive.

I got here because of my own power.

 

There's nothing else that matters in this world of slaughter.

If you don't have power, you don't have a say in anything.

Even if you're extremely clever and intelligent.

 

Power is everything, whether you like it or not.
