Chapter 1: Explosion
Earth 2016, XXX-Country
“We arrive in XXX-Station soon, please don’t forget your valuables in the train.”
I hear the announcement while wearing one earphone in my ear, time to get out and walk to school again or so I thought.
Suddenly I hear someone laughing and shouting “DIE! EVERYONE DIE WITH ME!”
This causes everyone to jump off their seats and panic occurred immediately.
“Help! Get me out!”
“Terrorist!”
I look behind me and saw a man pulling something like a bomb out of his backpack.
Terrorist?! Here? What a fucking terrible luck!
I can hear my own heart beating sound, it’s like a raging pulse that keep getting louder and louder.
Looking at the countdown of the timer: 7….6….5
Shit, there is no time. I don’t want to die in this place! I want to rush towards the terrorist to stop the bomb or anything.
My feet won’t listen, I stood there staring hopelessly at the countdown.”
3…..2…..1
I can’t do anything!
..0..
No!
A loud explosion sound echoed throughout the train, my last moments of my life flashed through my brain.

Ylis 907 , Non-Human Territory, Demon City Orphen
Every time I look at the mirror in my room I nearly didn’t recognize myself. My memories from my previous life are still there. It’s has been a week since I have been transported to this place.
I have measured my own length and it’s 10 cm taller than my previous body which is 1.71m. My hair turned from black to white, my face is more savage and vicious and I got a little scar on my left cheek. I didn’t have any memories of my current self, the only thing I understand in this world is the language.
After asking several people I finally know my name. I’m named Agni Demonia, a low-class demon living in the Demon City Orphen. Apparently from what I heard there are two demon clans: Demonia and Nova. Obviously, I belong to the Demonia clan.
Each day I gather more and more information about this world. Each piece of information is vital for my survival in this world.
I was visiting in a sort of a library but there are no books inside instead papers and wood scrolls are stacked two meters high. The place is messy, so finding information about a certain object is difficult.
According to the information, I found there are seven clans ruling the non-human territory. The demon clans Demonia and Nova, Dark Elf clan, Undead Clan, Beast clan, Succubus Clan and Dragon Clan.
Each clan head are called Rajin and they are the most powerful person after the Emperor. Each seven-year a new Emperor is selected from the Rajins to rule the Non-human Continent.
The Rajin from the Nova Clan, Zerik Nova is the currently the Emperor with other words he is the most powerful person in this country. The humans are calling him “The Demon Emperor”. In this world, humans are at war with the non-humans in this world and there is no sign of peace at all.
“There you are!”
I stopped with reading when I heard someone is calling me.
It’s Deva, my so called best friend in this world. Of course, I don’t remember anything about him. He was a head shorter than me and got the same hair color as me. It seems that silver hair is a common trait for demons. His big eyes are always bugging me but he is quite handsome.
“It’s you,” I spoke with with intonation in my tone
“What do you mean it’s you? You don’t even remember your best friend?
No shit friend I’m not even from this world.
“I already said that I have amnesia, that’s also a reason I’m the library. Searching info about this world .”
“What’s so interesting about this place? Let’s go outside, I want to spar with you!”
I who have no knowledge about fighting, of course, refuse to spar with him.
“I refuse.”
“You…. really don’t remember anything,huh..” Deva said with a disappointed look
“Well, it’s helpful if you tell me more about myself except for my name.”
Deva shakes his head while sighing and said: “You parents are killed by those filthy humans.” He said with a hateful tone
Wait, it’s my parents, not yours, why are you so angry bro?
“You were seriously depressed for three days, that’s also first time seeing you in that state. Later on, you tell me you want to get revenge against the humans. You are planning to join the Seven alliance army.
If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.
The seven alliance army? Probably an army who contains soldiers from the seven clans.
“I want to ask about that bloodline thing, what’s up with that?”
I read something that each clan has their own unique bloodline which grants unique powers.
Deva glances at me with a surprised look and said: “Every clan has a different bloodline with unique abilities.”
“I will only explain our own bloodline as for the others I have no idea what their unique abilities are.”
Deva told me the abilities of our Demonia bloodline.
“The first unique ability from the Demonia bloodline is [Demonic Aura]. This allows you steal others their strength and speed in a radius of 10 meters. You will only steal the ones who doesn’t possess the [Demonic Aura]. That’s only for level one of this ability, the higher the level the stronger your aura.”
“What is your level?” I asked curiously
“Only level one, this skill is hard to train, you actually need to use it in the battle to improve it’s effects.”
With other words, how more you use it, how faster will level up. I know exactly how this [Demonic Aura] works now. I should ask him the other abilities of the bloodline.
“What are the other abilities?”
“The second unique ability is [Awaken]. This skill is extremely rare and can only be found in 1/1000000 of the Demonia clan. There are only two people who posses this skill, the Rajin of our clan Paz Demonia and the second one is Nihil Demonia, a young prodigy who has reached the rank “Majin” at the age of 15.
“What is a Majin?” I asked because I’m not sure how the rankings work in this community
Looking at Deva, I’m sure he is already of my questions.
“Commoner-***Soldier-**Soldier-*Soldier-Captain-Major-General-Majin-Rajin. Those are the ranks in the Seven Alliance Army.”
That means that Nihil guy is only second to the Rajin!
“That’s the same for every clan?”
“Yes, each clan uses the same system.”
“And humans?”
“I don’t know about this and honestly, don’t care,” Deva said in a disturbed tone
“Our clan can only use 60-70% of their strength in battle the remaining can only draw out by [Awaken].
“So we have actually a disadvantage against other races?”
“Not really, because you got [Demonic Aura] to compensate for it.
“That’s true.”
I mean the combination of [Demonic Aura]+[Awaken] seems to be overpowered.
“That’s all for the bloodline abilities, there are several abilities we shared with the Nova clan. Like [magic resistance] for example. We are naturally resistance against magic, let’s said you have level 1 [Magic resistance] that means magic attacks against are reduced by 40%. Each new level will gain your 10% more reduction.”
Deva takes out blue crystal out of his pocket and throws it to me. “Catch!”
I catched the blue crystal and asked: “What is this for?”
“You can see your abilities level with this crystal. Hold it for 5 seconds.”
I did what he told me and a holographic screen appeared from the blue crystal.
Bloodline abilities:
Lvl 1 [Demonic Aura]:Steal 10% nearby enemies speed and strength. Enemies with the same aura are immune to it. The radius of the aura is 10 meter.
Shared abilities:
Lvl 1:[Magic resistance]: Magic attacks against you are reduced by 40%.
Lvl 1 [Dark ball]: Shoot a slow moving ball of dark magic from your palms. The range is 20 meters.
Lvl 1:[Dark Enchant]: Enchant your weapon with dark magic.
Lvl 1 [Blink]: Instantly teleport on location at will. The range is 12 meters.
Lvl 1 [Dark aura]: Increased your dark magic power by 30%.
Lvl 1 [Demon sense]: Can sense non-humans within 1000 meter.
Wasting no time I asked to Deva to teach how to use each ability.
“Ho, you are finally interested?! Deva asked in surprise
My desire for power is quite strong after my previous dead. I have learned that the powerless can’t do anything at all especially in this world.
The next day Deva taught me how to use all my abilities, I practiced for three days it’s actually not that difficult once you get the hang of it.
Deva and I decide to join the seven alliance army. Improving our strength while raising our ranks in the military.
