71 Chapter 66 : History part 1 (1/2)
Since mark had made the soul vow, the supreme elder was allowed to reveal the secrets without any further restrictions.
According to the information shared by supreme elder farthur, the mysterious dungeon was not some special jail, holding demons within it, but rather a safe house used for guarding them.
Confusing right, to get a clear picture on that part. The history of how these structures were builded needs to be explained.
It all started few million years back, when the vast main continent was not yet broken down to little islands. It was the time when the demons were the supreme powers, governing that never ending land. Which had the rich heritage from millions of years from their predecessors.
Though few minor conspiracies were going on, that were common occurrences seen in people's belonging to the upper hierarchy.
There wasn't a major impact that forced these powers to go all out until a single party was left alive to begin with, i.e. to attain supremacy.
During the ancient period, The strong species of giant, elves, sea race, beastmen and such were only be considered minor races.
”Hilarious right!” On the main land, where the races of giants, elves, humans, beastmen were on equal foothold against demons, were once reigned by them and had to present them with tributes to pledge their allegiance.
Truth to be told, the demon races that time had also bullied the minor races, for their inferiority. But they had never crossed a step which they shouldn't, as they had to preserve their dignity of being a noble ruler.
Surprisingly, every thing was going around fine. A good harmony was been maintained with other demon races, and also with minor races under their governance.
Peaceful relations were maintained between them without any major disputes that could plant hatred within their hearts.
But the sudden change, that lead to the ancient war was induced by an ambitious demon leader, Zerthrozin Elgron.
He belonged to one of the strongest races of demons during that time phase, they were called by the name of flying fiend race and he, zerthrozin himself was also a peak existence that is present on the upper ranks of demon leaders.
He was not just satisfied with ruling over his race alone, he also wanted to unify the entire races of demons, and wants them to serve under him, as he had the power to act arrogant.
The ordinary races of demons that time could easily wipe out the entire strong hold of demons in the floor where mark was located. nevertheless zerthrozin who was leader of one among the strongest races that time.
The spark created by him had also awakened the greed in such ambitious leaders around him, who also wanted to show off their powers, and fight for the goal of supremacy, as result a major impact was made, which lead to an never ending blood shed till the later generations, which had drenched the green lands of the main land with red.
Though it lasted for few years, after zerthrozin ended up being dead, the initial seed of hatred had already been sown down deep in the people's heart, particularly with the other neighboring races that had actively participated in the war against their kin. This hatred was later inherited by their kin continued in their later generations to go.
After a few hundreds of peaceful years. By some unknown cause, the war which had been halted, after the core cause was eliminated reappeared on the surface.
Unlike before where some races were caught off guard, this time these races were well prepared to fight against others powers, and had also steered their heart for an another chaotic battle to witness.
The battle continued for few hundreds of years, and many generations of warriors had to actively sacrificed their bodies for their race's welfare.
But never had they imagined that, in their negligence, the world which was once ruled by them had already been plagued with a foreign power of unknown origin, which had already set their eyes on the rich heritage of the vast endless world currently ruled by them.
The demons at later generations had discovered that this foreign race had an devious ability that not just limited to face shifting, but also to utilize the hidden powers of the targets and also the bloodlines of the target they devoured.
Things now became clear to the demon kin that the war which had made them lose families, which also reduced their powers was actually secretly narrated by this foreign influence.
Though the demons had discovered the core cause for their conflict, not every one were willing to buy that truth and shake hands with other demon races, their hatred pushed the war to a point, where it wouldn't stop until all their enemies were purged, in the flames of the war caused by them.
A change was caused by zerthrozin, that had initiated this never ending war. Similarly an other change was also caused by an youth of Demi dragon race.
An ancient race, that had it's roots attached to the dragon god's of the myths, a strong demon race which shares both demonic powers of progenitor and also dragonic powers of god's in their bloodline, which also had an influence slightly greater than the flying fiend race which derives its origin from hell fiends itself.
