(8th Great Age - 13th Epoch)

Yami and her friends are on a path, walking and chatting about their next destination. Yami tells them that she wants to go to the demon continent, to meet her father.

Yami said,"Let's go straight to the demon continent". Hikaru interrupt and said to yami,"You can't go to the demon continent this easily." Yuki asks,"But why?"

Hikaru adds to this,"Both demon continents are separated from the entire world. According to the Human-Demon Treaty Pact, no demon can leave the Yangthar and can't hurt any individual outside. Also, No one can enter the Yangthar, because it is covered by a protective barrier."

Yami said,"I can simply just break that barrier. There's no such barrier that can stop me."

Yuki said,"Are you stupid? That's a direct declaration of war. This wil only increase our troubles."

Yami asks Aether in her mind,"Is there really no way to enter the demon continent?"

[Aether: I think there's a way to bypass the barrier. There are many kinds of artifacts and relics that can do that.]

Yami asks Aether,"But where i can find that can of relic?"

[Aether: I think the only answer to your question is AUREVIA.]

Yami asks,"What is AUREVIA?"

Yuki said,"What's that? I don't know."

Hikaru asks them with a shocking face,"You two don't know anything about Aurevia."

Yuki and Yami nods in Agreement. Hikaru said in her mind,"These two are hopeless when it comes to things like this."

Hikaru starts describing Aurevia. Yami and Yuki listens with full attention. Yami said with naught,"Professor, start the lecture."

Hikaru said,"Aurevia is a very famous and developed nation. It is also known by the name Nation of Constructs."

Yami said,"Constructs.. like mechanical robots. Does it have robots as its civilians."

Hikaru said,"No, in Aurevia, Humans and constructs co-exists. Helps each other in troubles, and contribute to the growth of the Nation."

Yuki asks Hikaru,"How can this be possible? Did you mean by helping humans through commands and instructions given to them."

Hikaru said,"No, every construct is conscious and has its own mind and will. They operate just like normal humans. All these constructs are created by the Mortal God, who founded this Nation."

Yuki said,"But how can this be possible?" Yami stop walking after listening all this conversation about constructs having their own mind and will.

Hikaru and Yuki also stop walking. Yuki asks Yami,"What are you thinking and why did you stop?"

Hikaru said to yami,"Don't think too hard. It will fry your brain. Oh..sorry i forgot, you don't have one. HAHAHAHA!" in a sarcastic tone.

Yami lifts her head up and said,"Because they have an artificial core in them, created by the robotics engineering. Then, that Mortal God is a genius engineer to create such outstanding constructs."

After hearing this, Hikaru and yuki was in absolute shock. Hikaru walk towards Yami and held her hands and said,"Yes, you are right."

Yuki pulls out her katana to slash his throat for touching Yami's hands. Yami tells her to put her katana back.

The sun starts setting in the horizon and sky starts turning dark blue. Yuki told them that they have to camp around this area to survive the night. They started setting the tents and making a fireplace using woods and fire magic.

All of them sat on the wood logs and then Hikaru starts talking,"I think Aurevia is the best place to solve our problem right now." Yuki asks,"And how's that?"

Hikaru said,"Because that Mortal God made many artifacts and relics. And they are still stored safely in his tomb. Every year, Aurevia celebrates a festival called The Grand Masquerade. Warriors from every nation gathers here to participate in this festive battle. The one who become champion can duel with the Saviour of the North, VEYRASHA, The Crimson Fang."

Yuki asks,"And how it is beneficial for us?" Hikaru said,"Because if we win against her, we can have any one artifact as the prize."

Yami said,"Then it means that we just have to defeat her, right. I'm ready for the battle."

Yami asks Hikaru,"Can you tell me more about these saviour and stuffs?" Hikaru eyes starts glowing, and he nods with tears in his eyes.

Hikaru tells them,"In Aurevia, there is no King and royal family at present, but in the past, there was a royal family, The Valcrest. After a pandemic spreads, the entire royal family and some citizens died. Only one person from the royal family survives, the second son of the king, Aurex Valcrest, The Mortal God."

"At that time, after he went through an evolution and became the Mortal God, he made cure for his people. After pandemic ends, he made his own Nation and named it Aurevia. Using his genius mind and the God powers, he created the constructs."

"Because of him, the Nation rise from the ruins. He made many discovery that can make the life of a person's easier. But he know that if he never ascended to the Celestial God. After his death, many nations will attack Aurevia for the treasure and valuable artifacts."

"So, he made four strong mechanical constructs to protect this nation and its people.

• Saviour of North - The Crimson Fang

VEYRASHA

• Saviour of South - The Iron Bastion

AEGIRON

• Saviour of East - The Far-Sighted Sentinel

CAELVORN

• Saviour of West - The Heaven Sunderer

ORTHEON."

"There are some rumours about the fifth construct. But no one has ever seen it with their own eyes."

Yami said," Now we just have to focus on winning."

A voice suddenly comes from the dark shadows of the trees,"I suggest you to stay away from that place." Hikaru, Yuki and Yami takes stance to fight.

Yuki said in her mind,"It's weird, i can't sense any presence from there. Like, they have completely erased their presence."

Hikaru asks loudly,"Who are you? Show yourself."

A dark figure emerges from the shadow into light and said,"I AM-------."
