Opening his eyes, James found himself standing in a land that was pure red. The kindom before him was grand, very grand, as three kingdoms of the Black Blood Empire joined together would not be close to a half of the one that stood before him.
This, to his understanding, was hell, the land of demons, and part of his grandfather's own kingdom, which he had taken from Askirath.
He then went towards the kingdom as he floated above the ground, as his clothes swayed around him.

Draycus Arcoin sat on a black throne and smiled, as he then felt his grandson had arrived. Motioning one of his soldiers, a demoness, he sent her to greet James and bring him to himself.
After a few minutes James entered the room in amazement, floating in the air. Surprise filled Draycus' face as he looked at his own grandson as he then got of his throne.
" I see you are progressing very well, grandson. I may presume that you have reached king rank?" He asked, smiling.
James nodded, as he then looked at his grandfather. "Third king rank, and reforged my bloodline weapon as well as being the soninlaw of Herald." He said as a chair appeared behind him and sat down.
"Herald? Yes, a good friend. But there are other matters of more concern; as I, your grandfather have happily destroyed all your enemies, well most of them, so you could grow in power; you have shown your cursed lineage, destroying the braclets I gave to cover them up! You have all lusting after your lineage, all for power!" Draycus eyes showed anger, red as fire. "Thus it is very important that we shall bring a new age, one that crushes all who oppose us, my grandson!"
Draycus stood standing as he then looked at James. " But I fear that although you have progressed well, steps of the ladder of cultivation are to be broken, as many want to have your blood in the higher realm. Thus, they will destroy the second realm barrier, unleashing havoc upon earth, creating what is to pass, the new genesis, the greater creation, one filled for lust of power."
James smiled, as he still sat on his chair. " How will I know that they have broken through, grandfather?"
"The sky will turn black, and an explosion that will shake the world to the core, screams released by all but a few, all shall shiver in the presence of the great gods." Draycus Arcoin muttered, reciting a line of a prophecy.
"This my grandson, will mark the beginning: All will be after you, but as a Trithorian, you can still move here or to a higher realm, if you truly can't escape." He said, as fear filled his own voice. A black box suddenly appeared in his hand as he then gifted it to James.
Inside was a ring, black with a purple glow around it. Draycus smiled as he then began to explain that this ring was made from the core of the demon world, by the demon king Kashiren. Supposedly it suppressed all who were of the demon race, nobles to gods.
And only one true blood could wear it, which was Arcoin blood, as Kashiren had used his firstborn son's blood to suppress the deathly aura into the ring, forever binding it to his own lineage, which his last name he kept a secret, as only his few friends, his wife and the second demon king Alizaris, knew.
"So grandfather, now that I know more of myself, I must ask..." James said as he then got out of his chair. " Why are you favoring me, as I already know that I am chosen by gods for a greater destiny, outlined by the beginning of time, what is your true purpose?" James suddenly smiled as his eyes turned red.
Draycus smiled. " I favor you because we are of the same blood, but I as you can truly tell, I lust to rule as the only king of hell. My kindom of the four, Dyleasise, is yes, the kindom of the lowest hell, but I feel as I...should rule all as an Arcoin, as Kashiren's bloodline runs through me!"
"As for you, my grandson, I have helped you grow so you can accomplish what destiny calls for you to do, rise higher and dominate all who can only succumb to you against their own wills, as you conquer their wives, daughters, and all they hold dear! " Draycus exclaimed with delight, as he then continued. "But all I ask is to rule the underworld, the world of demons, death, and destruction, as you rule all else unknowingly!"
"Very well then, grandfather. I shall see you... later, as you can call me when you have built a greater army then what you have now. As payment for this, I will take her." James said as he grabbed the demoness who had brought him and dissapeared, thus leaving his grandfather Draycus Arcoin alone in his own throne room, in the kingdom of Dyleasise.
