Since the Ancient Era that Necron has been waiting for the moment that he could finally revive.

Necron was an old demon that lived thousands of years in the past, in the Era where experts of Magic existed, and where Sects existed, a world of constant battles for resources and supremacy where only the fittest and most ruthless survived, grew stronger and thrived.

Once born as a poor and lethargic demon boy, he survived through this harsh world with sheer willpower, survival adaptability, and ruthlessness accompanied by shamelessness and a monstrous appetite for power.

Although he was not born with any bloodline, with the worst possible talent in Mana Core, D-Rank, and with zero backings from a family or sect, he slowly crawled his way up to the highest heavens through blood, sweat, and tears.

Every challenge was a lesson, every lesson was experienced, and every type of experience shaped him as a man who could withstand a thousand storms and survive.

He thrived in chaos and fought for survival like no one else, he slaughtered when it was necessary but also acted friendly and didn't fought when it was not necessary, cautious, scheming, and incredibly ruthless, he had no bounds, and his only purpose in life was to attain Divinity, become a God, and achieve eternal life like the Gods that have created this world.

He crawled his way up to the top from the very abyssal bottom, and became one of the Ancient Sages, he was known and worshiped by all Demons as the Ancient Sage of Spectral Abyss.

He was feared by everyone in the world as a Rank 9 expert but never managed to achieve true immortality in the end.

He discovered that his very existence was fated to die, and that fate was something he was not able to fight against no matter how much he tried.

The only way to fight against fate was to become Rank 10, but it was an incredibly hard task to achieve, one that not even the Ancient Sages in their glory and utmost manipulation of Mana as their divine domain achieved.

And no matter how much they looked for them, Necrom was never able to find the True Gods of Terra and was never able to confront them nor to steal their powers.

Although he had become unrivaled, he realized that his very specialization had locked him into a certain element, and he was never able to achieve what other elements could do on their peak.

He was not able to travel into space as he would be consumed by the chaos delving within, and he was not able to travel to the depths of the world as the Abyssal Sea of Miasma consumed his very being as well…

He discovered that even after reaching the pinnacle of a Magus… he was still restrained by the nature of the world.

However, as a cunning man who would never give up on his desires and dreams, he spent all the lifespan he had, thousands of years investigating, practicing, and finding ways to fight back against these powers he was not able to completely assimilate nor fight back against properly.

He constantly sought new ways to cultivate, to use the Mana and his Demi-Divinity, he tried many things, but even then… he was limited.

Every Ancient Sage had their own Era, and on his Era, Necron was unparalleled, but he had also exhausted all resources in the world.

Without more resources than what he had acquired through thousands of years of stripping everything off and using it as materials… he was left with his investigation without completing it.

He needed to wait for the world to generate more resources… and more opportunities!

But it was too late already, his lifespan was coming to an end, and bind by fate, he would soon perish, even as the strongest of the world, he would die bitterly like an old man…

But on his last days, he set in motion is plan B.

He cursed his own soul, experimented with it until he managed to somehow assimilate a tiny speck of miasma, and then sealed his own soul inside an artifact of immense power in the shape of an ordinary crystal ball.

His soul was not completely sealed inside, as fate would not let him go without dying naturally, and he had to cut his soul in half to completely fool fate, leaving half of his soul within this crystal ball, while the other half died with the body, being sent into the transmigration cycle where it was cleansed of all its powers…

However, the other half managed to "survive" within this artifact, fooling fate and obtaining pseudo-immortality by not having to maintain a physical body that deteriorated and had lifespan!

But as a single half soul, he had lost most of his original powers, but he had left many things behind, and knew many things as well, and slowly planned his rebirth through thousands of years.

However, as the Demon King finally was born, his enormous castle was destroyed by the cataclysm and most of his research was lost.

He fell hopeless, sealed inside the artifact and losing connection with the other artifacts that let him draw power from the reserves he had generated… and ended sleeping for eons.

However, one day, a red-skinned demon girl found him, and hope once more blossomed within the rotten heart of the malefic devil.

Using his guidance and encroachment, she slowly gathered the artifacts that he once had left behind, alongside the many other things he once had within the ruins of his castle.

The girl grew stronger with every trial he gave to her and became a fitting servant for the old demon, who slowly schemed his rebirth with her, as the two traveled the world and gathered all sorts of items, resources, information, and more.

The old demon, the malicious devil Magus, Necron, the Ancient Sage of Spectral Abyss had finally come back to the Modern Era, and he was set in making it his own!

He simply needed to create the perfect immortal body to withstand fate's lifespan, and become unstoppable in heaven and earth!

And soon enough… he would achieve such goals, as he was alerted of something.

"Master… The Tree of Rebirth has been found!"
