The ancient battle. Osa has been hearing Dean saying just how intense it was, how he was almost killed. But what he, even Dean himself, was not sure about is what actually caused the war. Osa has been trying to imagine and trying to guess just how earth-shattering it might have been, as well as the cause.
"Sigh... You want to know more about the ancient battle?" Dean asked.
"Yes," Osa answered.
"Ok, fine. I guess telling you isn't bad... shouldn't be right? I mean, I would have told you all this while ago, just that I was afraid you might want to..."
"Hey, Dean, why are you acting like one of those mysterious old wise men in novels?" Osa cut in. "Have you forgotten what I am? I'm a blood vampire, so not only can I heal physical wounds, I should also be able to heal mental injury, right?"
okay fine"let me start from the very beginning about my status, l'm a Vion scientist, and I came into this universe running away from the Blood Vampire Council. It all started when I discovered a secret about the past of the demonic vampires and my race. I found a confiscated book in our grand library that explained the grudge between us, but I had to steal it since no elder would permit me to borrow it.
I succeeded in stealing the book and copied its contents, returning it the same night. The grudge was just a misunderstanding, so I traveled to the demonic vampires' territory to clarify my doubts. Unfortunately, I was caught and attacked by more than fifteen of them. Our spies saved me, but our existence was revealed, and we had to fight our way home.
The council punished me with a 100,000-year slumber, but I faked it and escaped into the Primordial chaos. There, I found a primal womb hole leading to this universe. I survived an attack by a strange creature which I later found out was a God and I was drawn into this war.
"Dean, stop beating around the bush and go straight to the point," Osa cut in impatiently. "How did the war escalate?"
Dean continued, "In that ancient war, the human race was united under the banner of the Big Ten - six ancient families, two organizations, and two academies."
"Besides the human race, numerous other races also joined forces with them, forming a vast alliance of over a thousand races united against the Gods. These allied races include the intelligent and agile pechuaz, the sturdy and proud Dwarves, the mystical and ancient Elves, and many more. Each race brings their unique abilities, and strengths to the table, making their combined force a formidable opponent in the war. The human race, with their numbers and powerful demigods acts as a cornerstone of this alliance, helping to coordinate and lead the efforts of their diverse allies."
The ten most powerful humans and their families that participated in the war were Ray from the nameless family, Shang Cheng from the Shang family, Rex from the Alexander family, Desmond from the omorogbe family, sanny from the silver family, lightning the chief of the lightning guild, and Brock the master of the hunters guild.
As for the two academies, their names seem to be the celestial academy and the united academy, but the united academy was destroyed during that war, only the celestial academy is still around till this day, which shows their solid foundation, and it is also the academy I want you to get enrolled into.
Osa's eyes widened in awe. "They're that powerful?" he asked, incredulous. Dean nodded. "Yes, they are. In fact, Shang Cheng attended the academy back in the day. You'll understand the significance of that when the time comes, Dean said with a knowing glint in his eye.
"The war between Gods and demigods was so cataclysmic that the Gods created a separate universe to contain their destructive powers. The battle was not fought in this universe, but in that separate one. This legendary conflict was truly epic. Osa's face contorted in confusion as he asked, "Why would the Gods need to create a new universe for a war?"
"Why won't they let me tell you something, kid? If even the weakest demigod were to act inside this planet, it would be destroyed. "What! You mean a demigod can destroy a planet?" Osa exclaimed. "Yes," Dean said, "some with just a casual punch, others with a mere sneeze."
"Seriously, stop interrupting me, let me finish. The so-called false universe is the inner world of a powerful Vionist, likely killed by the Gods long ago. This inner world has been tempered with, making it impossible to replenish energy during battles."
It was like all the Vion energy has been sucked away, leaving just small amounts for the functioning of the world. They called that graveyard of the Gods because a lot of Gods and demigods were killed there. The most terrifying thing about the Gods is that apart from the normal Gods and the ancient Gods, there are still some other Gods called the Genesis or Primordial Gods who might have been born with this universe.
My body was destroyed by the collaborating of the ancient Gods of time, space, cause, and infect. I could only escape with my soul, but unlike Shang Cheng, whose origin was almost destroyed, mine was still perfectly intact. If it wasn't because I was afraid of those Primordial Gods, I could have even given those arrogant ancient Gods some surprise, Dean said arrogantly.
That was incredible, what happened to the graveyard of the Gods, Osa asked. The graveyard of the Gods should still be around but strictly guarded by the Gods. After all, killing demigods is not easy, especially if they hide their origin, though it weakens them, it makes them almost impossible to kill.
"How?" Osa asked, confused. "It's like this: if Shang Cheng had hidden his soul origin, he would be almost 40% weaker. But if his body and soul are destroyed with his hidden origin, he would be able to recanate, though after a long time. But if his origin is tempered with and destroyed, then not even the Gods might be able to recanate him," Dean explained.
