Chapter 366: The Dark Archangels and Their Legion
As Sung Jin-Woo continued to expand his divine influence and evolve into even greater forms, he knew that the balance of light and darkness was vital to maintaining the harmony of the multiverse. While the angels of light radiated warmth, protection, and guidance, there needed to be an equal force to handle the darker aspects of existence. To complement the radiant forces of the light angels, Sung Jin-Woo created the Dark Archangels—beings forged from the black flames that embodied the essence of his divine power in its more mysterious and ominous form.
The Birth of the Dark Archangels
The Dark Archangels were not born from luminous light, but rather from the very essence of shadow and fire—black flames that reflected the depth of Sung Jin-Woo's vast and limitless power. They were not evil, but rather a necessary balance to the purity of the light. Each Dark Archangel held dominion over different aspects of darkness, and together, they would serve their creator with unwavering loyalty.

The Eight Dark Archangels
1. Samael: The Captain of the Dark Angels, Samael stood as the highest-ranking of the Dark Archangels. As the embodiment of divine wrath, Samael's power was immense, and his command over the legions of dark angels was absolute. He wielded black flames that could erase existence and turn light into shadow, a terrifying yet crucial force in the balance of the multiverse.
2. Uriel: The second in command, Uriel was the archangel of vengeance. Born from the deepest black flames, Uriel served as the hand of justice, ensuring that the wrath of Sung Jin-Woo was meted out against those who dared oppose his will. Uriel could manipulate shadows into tangible forms, using them to bind, imprison, and annihilate any who threatened the divine order.
3. Raphael: Known as the archangel of destruction, Raphael's very presence was enough to cause upheaval. Raphael was not a harbinger of mindless chaos, but rather a force of controlled devastation, unraveling the old and making way for new growth. His black flames could burn through the very fabric of reality itself, reshaping existence.
4. Amenadiel: The archangel of time, Amenadiel was a being capable of manipulating the flow of time and space. His connection to the black flames gave him dominion over the most paradoxical of powers—he could accelerate or reverse time within a limited span, allowing him to control events before they even occurred. Amenadiel's power was subtle yet immense, operating in the background to maintain the necessary cycles of destruction and rebirth.
5. Guardians of The Absolute One Domain Realm (5-8): The final four Dark Archangels served as the personal guardians of the True Absolute One Domain, Sung Jin-Woo's primary realm. They were tasked with protecting the sanctity of this domain, ensuring that no external forces, especially those from the darker, chaotic corners of the multiverse, could disrupt the peace and order within the realm.
Fifth Dark Archangel: Guardian of the threshold to The True Absolute One Domain, responsible for keeping intruders out and securing the entrances to Sung Jin-Woo's divine sanctum.
Sixth Dark Archangel: Protector of the realm's integrity, preventing any distortions or rifts in the fabric of reality within the domain.
Seventh Dark Archangel: Guardian of the energy flow within The True Absolute One Domain, ensuring that the divine power and light remain balanced and undisturbed.
Eighth Dark Archangel: Overseer of the Domain's boundaries, keeping the forces of chaos and entropy from breaching the realm and ensuring that no unwanted beings can trespass into the divine sanctuary.

The Creation of the Dark Angels Legion
With the creation of the Dark Archangels, Sung Jin-Woo's next task was to build the legions of dark angels that would serve as their armies. Drawing upon the pure black flames that coursed through his being, Sung Jin-Woo forged centillions of dark angels—beings born from the very essence of shadow and fire.
These dark angels were a force of unrivaled terror and power. Each angel was formed from black flames, their bodies wreathed in shadows and fire that would burn anyone who dared oppose them. They were not malevolent but rather extensions of Sung Jin-Woo's divine will—forces tasked with maintaining balance, just as their counterparts, the light angels, did. Together, they formed a perfect unity of light and darkness.

The Role of the Dark Angels and Their Purpose
The Dark Angels, while fearsome in appearance and ability, had a critical role in maintaining the divine equilibrium across the realms. Their duties were varied:
1. Defenders of the Darkness: Just as the angels of light defended the realms of creation, the dark angels defended the domains of shadow, entropy, and destruction. Their role was to ensure that the forces of darkness did not overrun creation, keeping it in balance with the light.
2. Executioners of Justice: In the absence of light, it was the dark angels who carried out the will of Sung Jin-Woo when punishment was required. They struck down those who defied the divine laws, using their black flames to obliterate any traces of their opposition.
3. Balance Keepers: With the light angels upholding the peaceful order and protection of creation, the dark angels ensured that chaos and destruction were kept in check. They ensured that the destruction served a purpose—clearing the old to make way for the new, preventing stagnation in the multiverse.

The Unity of Light and Dark
Together with the angels of light, the Dark Archangels and their legion of dark angels were united under one singular purpose: to carry out the will of Sung Jin-Woo, the True Absolute One. The dark and light forces coexisted as two sides of the same coin, complementing each other in perfect harmony.
Their unity ensured that no matter what forces threatened the multiverse, they would always have a divine force at their side—one that would bring light to the darkest corners of existence and burn away the shadows when necessary.
As the divine armies of both light and dark moved throughout the multiverse, the universes trembled at the might of Sung Jin-Woo's will.
