Prologue

Kosmos: War for Existence — An Isekai of Light and Darkness


An Ancient Legend

What do we call a god?

The closest idea would be that of an absolutely supreme being—one of infinite intelligence and boundless wisdom, holding absolute power over all that once existed, all that exists now, and all that will ever exist.

The creator of everything… and of nothing.

The one who surpasses infinity itself.

The purest entity to have ever existed throughout all eternity.

The most powerful presence in all of existence.

And the one responsible for bringing other gods into being.

The Ten Warrior Gods.

According to the oldest legends, in an age so ancient that even the concept of time had yet to exist—an era older than existence itself—ten gods came into being, each wielding power that nearly brushed the absolute.

It is said that evil emerged from living beings… but what if that was not the truth? What if evil, in its purest form, was not born from the weak, but from one of the gods?

With the birth of the Ten Gods, a faint whisper stirred through existence for the very first time—a tiny, trembling spark of negativity.

If the positive exists, then by universal law the negative must also exist—only then can balance be preserved.

That first spark of negativity took root within the god regarded as the strongest of the Ten Warrior Gods.

It grew slowly and silently until it threatened to corrupt the mightiest and purest among them.

With no other choice, the Warrior God was forced to cast out that growing spark—now anything but small—and seal it away for all eternity.

But that spark of negativity would not allow itself to be erased without a fight. After spending an eternity sealed away, it was neither destroyed nor redeemed. It was simply… forgotten—like so many things the gods fear to face.

That spark awakened to its own consciousness, giving rise to the one who would proclaim himself THE ENEMY OF THE GODS.

Existence continued its natural course, expanding and transforming into the infinite. As the eons passed, the first traces of life began to emerge throughout the universe.

Intelligent life became the pride of the gods, who watched with fleeting amusement as life advanced and evolved.

But then THE ENEMY OF THE GODS emerged, and with him began the universe’s torment. Evil spread outward, corrupting all of existence and driving life toward extinction.

Evil was winning… and as a consequence, existence itself began to wither.

The Ten Warrior Gods would never allow such a dark and blasphemous being to interfere with the designs of the mighty Father Creator.

Thus, the Ten Warrior Gods marched onto the battlefield and confronted the absolute evil that—because of them—had come into existence.

The clash between those eleven divine beings gave birth to a small world within another world.
That world was named Kosmos, the place where what is now known as the FIRST GREAT BATTLE FOR EXISTENCE took place.

THE ENEMY OF THE GODS was cast into the deepest reaches of Kosmos, imprisoned beneath an overwhelmingly powerful seal: THE SEAL OF ETERNITY.

One day, that malevolent existence will break free again—and when it does, it will threaten not only Kosmos, but every world born within creation.
