The Knights Templar (French: Ordre du Temple), also known as the Knights of the Temple, officially known as the "Poor Knights of Christ and Solomon's Temple" (Latin: Pauperes commilitones Christi Templique Solomonici), is undoubtedly one of the most tragic Catholic military armed groups in European history.

In 1119 A.D., Hugo de Paine and Guffré de Saint-Omo founded a congregation of monks with self-help and helping functions, using the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount as a base.

Its main purpose was to protect the safety of pilgrims from Europe to the Holy Land of Jerusalem, and to attack and purge the infidels in the vicinity.

The temple was built on the ruins of Solomon's Temple, hence the name of the Monks' Order.

At its beginning, the monastic had only nine members, but as it grew, at its peak, its membership reached tens of thousands.

In 1129, the Knights Templar were officially supported by the Holy See, and were granted a number of privileges.

In the years that followed, the Templar Order was able to grow rapidly, reaching a peak in size and wealth that no other armed group of its time could have attained - and it had even developed the first rudiments of banking.

However, his position as the largest creditor of the King of France, as well as his enormous wealth, made King Philip IV of France almost mad with jealousy (there is also another theory that the Knights Templar had mastered the secrets hidden beneath Solomon's Temple, controlled the lifeblood of Christianity, and obtained some supernatural powers from it, which caused Philip IV's fear and suspicion).

On Friday, October 13, 1307 (one of the origins of the "Black Friday" superstition, Philip IV finally sent a secret letter ordering officials throughout France to carry out mass arrests of members of the Knights Templar.

On that day, 138 members of the regiment were arrested in Paris alone, including the head of the delegation, Jacques de Molay.

Philip IV then launched an even larger campaign of purge against the Knights Templar, and many of its members were arrested in France and burned at the stake for heresy after brutal trials.

In 1312, under pressure from Philip IV, Pope Clement V had to announce the formal dissolution of the Templar Order, and mobilized a nationwide search for the remnants of the Knights, and imprisoned all of them.

In this way, the once glorious Knights Templar finally ushered in the end of its demise.

Although the Knights have suffered a catastrophe, the treasures and secrets hidden by them are like gravel caught in the Pacific Ocean, and their whereabouts remain a mystery to this day.

According to folklore, when the Grand Master of the Templars, Jacques de Molay, learned from prison that the King of France was going to destroy the Order once and for all, he summoned his nephew, the young Count Gieschet de Beauge, to prison, secretly granted him the position of Grand Master, and made him swear that he would save the Order in the future and preserve some of the treasures until the "end of the world".

In 1314, after the death of Jacques de Molay, Count Guichet de Beauge founded the Guild of "Pure Architects" and asked Philip IV for permission to have his body buried elsewhere.

The king agreed to the young count's request, but to his complete surprise, Guichet de Beauge used the coffin to transport all of Jacques de Molay's hidden "secret files" of the Knights Templar out of France.

Rumor has it that the hidden treasures of the Knights Templar could be found based on the cipher symbols on these archives.

These include, but are not limited to: the crowns of the kings of Jerusalem, Solomon's seven candlesticks, the four golden gospels illustrated by St. Sepilkle, and the rubbings of the "tablets of Moses" in the "Golden Ark of the Covenant."

Afterwards, Kiesher de Boge took these treasures to the Swedish branch of the Templar Order, the last undestroyed hiding place of the Knights Templar in all of Europe, and used the secular treasures such as gold and precious stones to help the Swedish royal family develop their national power.

After this, the remnants of the Knights Templar, who had regained a foothold in Sweden, began to operate under the name of the Order of St. Dumas.

But these lonely ghosts, who were destined to be "old and young", did not rejoice at the re-emergence of the Order.

The flames of vengeance burn their hearts all the time.

Every time they close their eyes, the horrors of their family and friends being slaughtered are still reproduced before their eyes.

In addition, they can only live like mice living in the shadows, and the humiliation of not being able to see the world with their true colors has distorted and deviated their once sacred and righteous hearts.

So, in this context, they finally stopped being entangled in the bottom line of faith and morality, and used the power of the sacred weapons of Christianity and ancient civilization in the treasure, as well as the ancient and evil mysterious knowledge plundered from the pagans, to secretly create a supernatural hybrid life form that should not belong to this world, the Angel of Death (Azrael).

Objectively speaking, the Angel of Death is actually difficult to define as a life, because he does not even have the most basic desire for survival and reproduction of a living being.

He can sacrifice everything, give up everything, and of course give up himself.

He is like a specially crafted, extremely powerful weapon of war, and although he looks exactly like a human in appearance, he does not possess any of the emotions of a human being.

This "flaw" makes him seem a little cold, insensitive, cruel, and even too dogmatic and rigid in some tasks.

But at the same time, he is an existence whose IQ is far higher than that of ordinary humans, and he has a remarkable talent for insight into human nature......

He is such a living creature.

He is both mutilated and perfect, complex and simple, both a sinner and a redeemer.

He wears the armor of sorrow and silence, with "original sin" in his left hand and "redemption" in his right hand, and purifies his body of "sin" and "punishment" with the blood and bones of the enemy.

He is an angel of blood, an angel of death, and he is usually accustomed to carrying out justice in cruelty and achieving protection in killing.

But even though his hands were stained with blood, he was still as pure as a child, and self-disciplined as a saint.

He is such a person who creates hell on earth, but looks up to heaven in hell.

……

It may be the arrangement of fate, or the coincidence of luck and misfortune, in short, when "Axel" embarks on the wrong path of fate, his death is doomed.

As his head rolled to the ground, he saw that red, the ultimate red, had covered the small area where he had just stood.

He opened his mouth to ask, "Why did you kill me?" or "How did you find me?" but he couldn't get that answer.

Because, the world in his eyes at this time has lost its color forever and forever.
