46/The bloody war
🕑 Added 2022-06-27 02:48:20 +0000 UTCThe next morning classes resumed, still on the subject of discrimination against other races. Yesterday, the teacher had barely touched on the subject when there was an outcry and the class was quickly ended. But today, everyone listened to the teacher anyway, even if it disgusted some of them. As Marcou went deeper into the history books, entering into a long monologue.
"After the goddess decreed that all other races were inferior and should be enslaved. A demon by the name of Eleutheros gathered all the other races under his control and took over their leadership with his generals. Declaring war on the goddess Hamnesia and beginning what the history books call the Bloody War." (Marcou)
"These generals, who were they?" (Éva)
"Kings just as much as him who renounced their title to crown him, King of all other races. The King of the angels and second of the generals Menos Luminis called the light bearer. The Dragon King Orak Den the most powerful dragon that ever existed, capable of shaking the earth itself, called the supreme dragon. The Queen of the Elves Camélia Calista, known as the most beautiful of women, a beauty equal to her power. Lucas Sanguis the Vampire King manipulating all elements including a rare element that of blood, unique to his lineage. The king of the beasts Dorgos Froze a man known for his incredible strength also called the uncontrollable beast. The Queen of the Giants Venus Mortan, capable of lifting entire mountains on her own. And finally the one who is considered a traitor the human hero Mathias Rosenberg called the rainbow sword. And below the generals there were the captains belonging to other various races not as strong as the generals but still very powerful." (Marcou)
"And how long did this war last?" (Éléonore)
"This war lasted 15 years, during which the losses were countless on both sides. The 4 great countries made an unprecedented alliance under the dome of the goddess, each of her countries proceeding to the invocation of heroes. Who then joined the battle, the goddess then also named apostles carrying her power becoming her representatives. Her apostles were endowed with an incredible fighting strength, exceeding the framework of simple mortal, endowed with a vitality, a strength and a mana exceeding the understanding. Who fought alongside heroes summoned from another world." (Marcou)
"If these apostles are so powerful, why don't they take care of the dungeons for us?" (Maïli)
"After the sudden appearance of the dungeons, the goddess said she had to call them back to her." (Marcou)
"What are her reasons for doing such a thing?" (Emma)
"One of the reasons is that the war would have exhausted her and her apostles is the reason mentioned and during this war some races were almost completely annihilated: as dragons, demons, Angels, Vampires and Giants mainly. Like other races that were also affected by this war, with many losses. After 15 years this war finally ended with the victory of the goddess Hamnesia. The Demon King was then executed alongside his generals in a public execution, putting a definitive end to this war. Many races then went into mass exodus, disappearing to escape their fate. And a few years later, the dungeons burst onto our continent. We believe that their appearance is due to a curse put on the humans to punish them. And to help us, the goddess, having withdrawn her apostles, helped us to summon new heroes. To face this new threat and thanks to her powers each country was able to summon more heroes." (Marcou)
"More heroes?" (Maël)
"Yes, without the help of the goddess we would have only been able to summon about 10 heroes, whereas with her help we were able to summon almost double that number." (Marcou)
"Why summon so many?" (Méverick)
"As I said, the goddess withdrew her apostles because the war would have exhausted her, but the other reason would be preparation for a future war." (Marcou)
"A next war what do you mean by that?" (Maïli)
"A demon king is normally only born every thousand years, but at his execution the demon king spoke words:
"In 100 years after my death a new King will come and I pray that he will be merciful to you, for otherwise your goddess will be the one responsible for many more tragedies." (Demon King)
"It is therefore very likely that you heroes will also be confronted with a new demon king, hoping that this will not lead to a new bloody war. For the other races could only wait for his return to take up this distant fight. And if it is, they have already started to move in the shadows, patiently waiting for their time." (Marcou)
"So if I understand correctly, in addition to the dungeons, we will also be confronted with the arrival of a new demon king. (Jay)
"Yes, but for the moment the most important thing is the dungeons, it will take time even for a demon king to become powerful or even a real threat. Especially since many races have disappeared and others have been almost wiped out so rebuilding a strong army would be difficult. Especially since the 5 big countries have never been as powerful as they are today. Well the class is over for today, I wish you a good day and a good training." (Marcou)
Once the class was over, they all headed to the training field for their usual sessions. At the end of this one which ended at around six o'clock. Moïse gathered them together to give them a brief update.
First of all, I would like to congratulate you all for these hard months of work, you have all made progress even if for some it is not yet enough. He said while looking at several students whose
The students concerned then looked away before Moïse resumed.
However, there are still a few months to go before the final selection, to see who will be promoted to the rank of hero of the kingdom of Sigma. And those selected will have to participate in a test.
"What kind of test?" Marine asked doubtfully.
"You'll find out when the time comes, until then keep working." Said he as he turned around.
"Wait, what about those who are not selected?" Interpelled then Max.
"They will either be recycled into the Kingdom's guard or soldiers or expelled from the castle we cannot burden ourselves with useless people you see." (Moses)
The students' eyes tensed for some at the thought of having to fend for themselves in this world.
"So if you don't want to be chased away, try to train well so you won't be useless to us." He added as he left.
"What bastards! Nevertheless, everyone had to expect it, he had already been warned, especially since it was predictable. And clear from the beginning with the expulsion of Logan from the first day, those who are unfit will be left to themselves." (Maïli)
The day then gave way to the night while in the basement of the castle a young Elf was being beaten with a whip.
"If I hear you scream I will hit you until you die!" (Raphaël)
It was the instruction that Raphael had given her while her body was already filled with atrocious scars and blood was already staining her skin and clothes because of the abuse inflicted. While Raphael, who was beating her, was taking a malicious pleasure before raping her savagely. While the girl remained silent, the pain she read perfectly on her face the tears running down her cheeks.
Once Raphaël had finished taking pleasure, he left her there, on the cold and wet floor of her cell. Her body and mind bruised by so much cruelty lay on the floor. While she was malnourished and partially dehydrated, a few minutes later, the sound of the door to the corridor leading to her cell opened again. Her body began to tremble with fear, anticipating the atrocities she would suffer again.
When her cell unexpectedly opened, she felt someone tenderly mop up her wounds with a handkerchief and a bucket of water. She then stood still while this stranger mopped her wounds. After that, she smelled something good, it was food and next to it she could see a small container with water. The door of her cell then closed, this illustrious stranger having cleaned her and brought her food and drink left without saying a word.
The girl then burst into tears as she brought the hot meal to her mouth, warming her poor tired body.
"Thank you...Thank you..." (Young Elf)
