Ran was once a demon serving under the Red-Demon Lord [[Stirbargen]]. | Ran was once a demon serving under the Red-Demon Lord [[Stirbargen]]. After the disappearance of the [[Sultharen|Demon King]], he among others believed the inaction of the Four Demon Lords in this period to be wasteful. A void was left for someone to rule with absolute authority, and this contributing to him allying with [[Barkat]] to institute a new regime, resulting in him betraying Stirbargen. Due to this betrayal, [[Stirbargen]] was sealed in the subspace of the Demon World. | ||

Using the Mystic Stones extracted from [[Shadow Vein]], Ran eventually regained enough of his own strength. Tracking down the member of [[Henir's Order]], he managed to claim the Seed of Life for himself. Intrigued by the device, he conducted research on it and the vacant shell of the Moon El and devised his own plan to harness the power of the [[Abyss]] through the Seed of Life. | ||
Back to his full strength, he eventually separated himself from [[Aren]]. With little use for the Dream Demons and the rest of the [[Red-Demon Army]], Ran departed the land alone in pursuit of the Abyss to enact his plan to harness its power for himself and become the Lord of the Abyss. | |||
====Chapter 59: King of Abyss==== | |||
Ran found the [[Abyss]] and delved into its deepest sanctum where he found the source of its power, its Heart Core. Using his modified Seed of Life, Ran allowed the device to absorb the immense demonic energy radiating from the core. | |||
During Ran's descent he took notice of [[Vasili]], who traveled ahead of the El Search Party. Upon the Demon opening the door to the core, Ran unleased a powerful mass of demonic energy upon the Dream Demon, causing him to go mad. | |||
Some time later, the El Search Party saved Vasili and with his help opened the way into the core. Ran was quick to notice their arrival, even noticing the eye of his [[Stirbargen|former master]]. In good spirits, the demon general did not wish to rush into combat, willing to provide them the mercy of cordiality before their demise. He answered questions they must've had, starting with the original motivation for the overthrow the of the Four Lords and believing demon were incapable of cooperation, needing to be subjugated. [[Chung]] became fed up with the pleasantries and did not hesitate to make his move and attack. His move was soon assisted by [[Ara]]. Others join and a battle commenced. | |||
Whist Ran contended his battle with a portion of the El Search Party, the remainder sought to foil his plan unnoticed. [[Noah]] attempted to go for the Seed of Life and managed to strike it, causing some damage before Ran took noticed and warded the boy away. [[Elsword]] attempts to dissuade Ran from using the Seed of Life, but the demon had seen its use first hand already and was ready to revel in its power. Before Noah could deliver an additional strike, Ran took the Seed of Life and fused with it, transforming himself into a beast imbued with the distortion of Henir and the Abyss. | |||
Rose asks about the Seed of Life, which he reveals how he came upon such a device before unleashing his newfound power against them. [[Lu/Ciel|Lu]] want to know what Ran's endgame is. Ran believed without a true ruler, the Demon Realm could not be whole, and he wishes to enact a new order, though the power of the Abyss. Tir retorts at Ran's proclamation, passionately protesting him unfit to be compared to the Demon King. Ran was surprised by his former master's uncharacteristic outburst, but sees the Demon King as a relic of a bygone era and plans to stake his rule with absolute force. | |||
[[Aren]] soon made his appearance in the Abyss to give aid. Ran was surprised to see his former vessel after he'd already set him free. Ran comments how Aren was particularly resilient and that if they'd remained fused for much longer their souls would've become attached. Separating themselves, leaving Arena in a state between human and demon he calls a Cambion. While Aren distracted Ran, the others managed to destroy the Heart Core of the Abyss setting the Abyss on the path of collapse. | |||
====Chapter 60: Collapsing Abyss==== | |||
Ran gives chase to the El Search Party who flee as the Abyss begin to collapse in on itself. As he gave chase, the instability of his Seed of Life and the Abyss caused his form to perpetually mutate and deteriorate to the point he was no longer capable to speech. As he approached the upper portions of the Abyss, the Abyss Worshippers began to swarm Ran and dragged him back into the depths to become the new core as the mouth of the abyss closes. | |||
