The royal demon kin are eating in a large dining room inside of a small mansion.

"I'M GOING TO GET THE BOTTOM OF THE DUNGEON!"

A beautiful young lady is arguing with her brother. She long purple hair. She is draped in a red dress similar to the color of blood. She has pale skin that only made her lips more alluring. Her mother replied.

"Its good to have dreams, Scarlet but the royal dragon knights have been trying to get to the bottom of this dungeon for decades now and no one has done it."

Scarlet's father draped in black with red slicked back hair said:

"Your mother is right dear."

"I'm going to do it, just watch me!"

The father seemed intrigued. A devilish smile slowly grew on his face. He had an idea. He then explained.

"Let's make a deal. Whoever clears the dungeon first out of you two will be next in line for the throne."

"FATHER?!"

The boy replied.

"Is there something wrong Rin?[1]"

If you come across this story on Amazon, it's taken without permission from the author. Report it.

The boy looked sullen. He couldn't muster up an answer.

"Alright, then I will take that as a no. Whoever clears the dungeon first will be the next in line for the throne."

"What is this place?"

There sat a boy in a pitch-black room surrounded with odd blue lights in the air.

"Woah. What are these?"

The boy had silver hair and both of his eyes were a mix of gold and silver. He had pale skin and was garbed in a simple grey robe and black boots.

The boy decided to touch one of the blue lights. It changed color from blue to gold. The lights near it changed color as well and combined. Soon there was a golden flame in the palm of his hand. It sparkled and shimmered to his whim. The boy's eyes lit up in excitement. He held out his other hand. Soon a silver flame with a brilliance that would lose out to the golden flame began to form. He then began experimenting with the elements over and over through the years, decades, and centuries. He found fire, water, light, darkness, lightning, wind. He also found a way to control something different, something not quite like the others. With genuine struggle, he figured out how to control aether. He could take away the thing which allows the world to work. With that, he found a way to control gravity. He also found a way to shorten space and make a portal from one place in his pitch-black room to another place in his room.

He didn't try to go out of his room because he didn't know there was more than just his room in the world. He was contempt with his prison as well. For some reason whenever he used the light element the room never lit up. The darkness was stubborn and didn't want to leave him.

One day(he didn't know what days were) he was doing his normal thing until the lights(mana) suddenly disappeared when he touched them. He was confused at first, but then he realized that he absorbed the mana. He could feel it. His body got stronger. His already superhuman strength body strengthened further.

"I'll call this enhancing."

Little did he know he was speaking in a tongue that only the gods still use and was forgotten by humans and demons.
