Tome of Blood

Regarding the history of the elves, there have always been different opinions in the Miria continent.

However, it is recognized by scholars from all walks of life that the arrival of the elves brought civilization to the wild Miria and officially opened the era of gods and supernatural beings.

For this reason, in the continent of Miria, the history of elves often represents myths and epics.

This is why Charlotte asked Harald to collect elven tomes.

In this still wild era, humans have not yet learned to record history and knowledge, but elves have this habit.

Although Charlotte knew all the events that had happened over the years based on the stories of Lilith, Harald and others, if she wanted to have a more detailed understanding of this era, she had to read the elven classics.

The last time she traveled through time, Charlotte didn't have this condition, but this time she just met it.

Lilith and Harald overthrew the Kingdom of Towers and seized a large number of elven books, which not only included the history of the elves, but also included some extraordinary knowledge of the elves and even information about gods!

These collections of books are of great interest to Charlotte and will help her learn more about the mythical era.

As someone who likes to read stories from the beginning, Charlotte naturally puts this "A Brief History of the Old World" at the top of the list.

With anticipation, Charlotte opened the book in front of her.

As the name suggests, this "A Brief History of the Old Continent" tells the history of the Old Continent that is different from the Miria Continent.

The Old World is located in the west of the Miria continent. It is the hometown of the elves and only exists in legends for humans.

Of course, Charlotte knew very well that it was not a legend, but a continent that actually existed.

Although "A Brief History of the Old World" is a "brief history", it is still quite dense.

However, Charlotte, who is already a demigod, has lost her soul strength.

She has the ability to have photographic memory, and she can do it easily even without using magic like [Strong Sense].

Charlotte glanced at ten lines at a glance and quickly read the entire book.

Slightly different from Charlotte's imagination, this "A Brief History of the Old World" has a mythical tone from the beginning.

The whole book starts from the origin of life and wisdom.

The book tells that a long time ago, there was only one continent in this world, called Albia. There was no life or extraordinary power on the entire continent.

Until one day, a strange god unexpectedly came to this world.

The god came to the world, and powerful power tore the entire world apart. Since then, the continent of Albia has been divided into two parts, the east and the west.

Seeing the desolation of the whole world, the gods who came to this world felt pity.

He created the world with his body, his bones turned into mountains, his blood turned into rivers, his breath turned into magic power, and his vitality turned into life...

The most essence of his body gathered in the Western Continent, giving birth to a vibrant world full of all kinds of incredible power.

The most turbid parts of his body were gathered in the Eastern Continent. Although it was also full of vitality, compared to the Western Continent, it seemed barren, desolate and chaotic, and various monsters evolved.

The origin of elves is that era.

It is said that the first batch of elves were born from the breath of the gods and were born in the prosperous Western Continent. Their birth entrusted the gods with their hopes for the world.

After that, it is the splendid epic of elven civilization.

With wisdom and strength, the elves established kingdoms one after another in the Western Continent and opened up a splendid elven civilization, ushering in the era of elven kingdoms.

The Age of Nations lasted nearly two thousand years.

Over a long period of time, the elven kingdoms gradually integrated in war and peace, and finally established a huge elven empire.

The Elven Empire has two emperors, one is known as the Sun Emperor Helios, and the other is known as the Moonlight Queen Artemis.

Inspired by the two emperors' achievements in unifying the continent, the God of Creation shared his last bit of power with them as a reward, and the two emperors became gods.

And the God who created the world fell into eternal sleep.

The two god-like elf emperors are the two main gods believed in by the elves, the sun god Helios and the moon god Artemis.

At this point, the elves have entered the age of myth.

Helios, the sun god, is an ambitious god. He longs for great achievements and hopes to become a god as great as the Creator God.

Moon God Artemis, on the other hand, is a gentle god with no great ambitions. She only hopes to protect the future of the elves.

The two main elven gods trained many slave gods to assist them in managing the continent and further pushed the elven civilization to its peak.

However, as time went by, the differences between the two main gods became wider and wider.

Sun God Helios is not satisfied with the status quo. He hopes to go one step further and lead the elves to the Eastern Continent where the creator God has not completed the transformation, eliminate those monsters born from filth, and bring the chaotic Eastern Continent under control.

On the contrary, the moon god Artemis hoped that the sun god Helios could give up the idea of ​​​​war and maintain peace on the two continents.

However, the gentle Moon Goddess Artemis could not stop the Sun God Helios from thinking, and the war eventually broke out.

The war between the two continents lasted for hundreds of years.

On one side are the elves led by the elves and gods of the Western Continent, while on the other side are the monsters on the Eastern Continent who also possess the power of gods.

This war based on the ambition of the sun god Helios was quite brutal.

Although it dealt a heavy blow to the monsters in the Eastern Continent, the elves also suffered heavy losses, which can be called a tragic victory.

In order to obtain the final victory, the sun god Helios tried to go one step further and seek the power of creation.

But in the end, He failed.

His failure brought huge disaster to the Western Continent, and the entire continent was destroyed in a horrific catastrophe.

The elven gods also fell one after another in that catastrophe, leaving only the moon god Artemis and some subordinate gods.

The elves were forced to migrate. They left the destroyed Western Continent, landed on the Eastern Continent, and launched a more protracted war with the remaining monsters...

…

The records in "A Brief History of the Old World" are not comprehensive, and there are even obvious traces of deletions in many places.

Especially the catastrophe, many places were vaguely described and obviously kept secret.

Not only that, some records also conflict with Charlotte's knowledge of the history of the Elf Era.

However, after some browsing, Charlotte gained a better understanding of the mysterious history of the elves.

There are also many speculations about the mythical epic and origin of the Miria continent.

"I see... The reason why the elves set foot on the Miria continent was not entirely due to migration. The elves' attack on Miria started a long, long time ago."

"Those monsters...should refer to the old gods of the Miria continent, right?"

Charlotte muttered.

She closed "A Brief History of the Old World" and planned to read other classics.

However, just as she was opening the next book, she was suddenly interrupted by Harald who hurried in.

This young man, who had always been steady, had an unconcealable anxiety in his eyebrows.

"What's wrong? Harald, what happened?"

Charlotte's heart skipped a beat and she asked quickly.

"Teacher! Lilith... something happened!"
