The Glories of the Demonic Path

The sky, ravaged by the smoke of war, is no longer blue. White bones cover the world, showing through as sickly pale patches. False pity dresses itself up as holiness, while foolishness that harms others and helps no one masquerades as maturity. Treacherous ministers and ambitious schemers, busy flaunting their political tricks, have indirectly prepared their own graves... Though the land has been invaded again and again, the common people can only glimpse the faint light of dawn and pray for another day.

A boy born in a small village endures hardship and upheaval, gradually setting out on the path to becoming a devil.
