—WSA 2025 ENTRY—

Seiya was born into a family of legends. A lineage of power. A dynasty of paragons.

He was none of these things.

Weak. Unwanted. A disgrace.

But destiny had no interest in their expectations. It had plans of its own.

Dragged into a hell beyond reason, Seiya suffered—not for days, not for years, but for what felt like eternity. Torture became his only companion. Pain, his only teacher. And in that suffering, something inside him woke up.

Not an awakening like the others. Not a gift. Not a blessing.

A truth. A force that didn’t belong to this world, or any other.

Now, he returns. Not to prove himself. Not to earn his place.

But to burn everything down.

Armed with the Staff of Chaos and the Sword of Severance, Seiya walks a path carved from vengeance and revelation. The world that cast him aside will either bow before him…

Or become ash beneath his feet.

Rise of the Rejected Deity from Chaos

Seiya remained rigid on his knees, hands hanging limp by his sides, head fallen back, and face, a mess of blood and bruises.

"This staff," the demon continued. "Is it one that can be wielded by anyone or is it exclusive to its owner alone?" He asked, reaching out to grab the bloodstained staff.

He picked it up, rotating it as he examined it with careful eyes. "Or it might just be an ordinary staff for all I know. We cannot know if we don't try it out."

The demon rose from his seat on the veranda, standing tall and rigid before Seiya, looming over him like a towering pillar. He raised the staff, adding his other hand to hold it like a baseball bat ready to swing.

The demon tightened his muscles, poised to strike Seiya, hoping the impact would sever Seiya's head or explode his body like it had done to the woman that had hidden behind him.
