-99- A Brief History of the Old World

Regarding the history of the elven race, the Miria continent has always had different opinions.

However, it is recognized by scholars from all walks of life that the arrival of the elves brought civilization to the reckless Miria, and officially ushered in the age of gods and transcendence.

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

That's why Charlotte asked Harald to collect the elven tome.

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

Although Charlotte is aware of the events that have happened over the years thanks to the stories of Lilith and Harald, if she wants to have a more detailed understanding of this era, she has to read the elven books.

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

Lilith and Harald overthrew the Tower Nation and seized a large collection of elven books, including not only the history of the elves, but also some of the elven knowledge and even information about the gods!

These books are of great interest to Charlotte, and help her to further her understanding of the Age of Mythology.

And as someone who likes to read stories from the beginning, Charlotte naturally put this "A Brief History of the Old World" in the first place.

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

As the name suggests, this "A Brief History of the Old World" tells the history of the Old World, which is different from the Miriad Continent.

The Old Continent is located to the west of the continent of Miria, the homeland of the elven race, which 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 thick.

However, Charlotte, who is already a demigod, has a soul strength that has long since changed.

She couldn't even use magic like [Strong Knowledge] to do it.

Charlotte glanced at ten lines, quickly skimmed, and quickly finished reading the entire book.

Slightly different from Charlotte's imagination, this A Brief History of the Old World is mythical from the start.

The whole book begins with the origins of life and wisdom.

The book tells that a long, long time ago, there was only one continent in this world, called Elbia, and there was no life in the whole continent, and there was no supernatural power.

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

The gods descended into the world, and the powerful force tore the whole world apart, and since then the continent of Elbia has been divided into two parts, east and west.

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

He created the world with His body, His bones into mountains, His blood into rivers, His breath into magic, His vitality into life......

The best part of his body gathered in the Western Continent, giving birth to a living world full of all kinds of incredible powers.

And the most turbid part of his body converged on the eastern continent, although it was also full of life, but compared to the western continent, it was barren, barren and chaotic, and evolved all kinds of monsters.

The origin of the elves is that era.

It is said that the first elves were born from the breath of the gods and were born in the rich western continent, and their birth carried the hope of the gods for the world.

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

With their wisdom and strength, the elves have established kingdoms in the Western Continent and opened up a brilliant elven civilization, which is the era of elves and nations.

The Age of Nations lasted for nearly two thousand years.

Over a long period of time, the elven kingdoms gradually merged in war and peace, and eventually established a vast elven empire.

The Elven Empire had two emperors, one revered as the Sun Emperor Helios and the other as the Moonlight Empress Artemis.

Grateful for the two emperors' achievements in unifying the continent, the creator of the world shared his last vestiges of power with them as a reward, and the two emperors were also made gods.

And the God of creation fell into an eternal sleep.

The two elven emperors who are gods are the two main gods believed by the elves, the sun god Helios and the moon god Artemis.

At this point, the elves entered the age of mythology.

Helios, the god of the sun, was an ambitious god who aspired to great deeds and became a god as great as the creator god.

Artemis, the god of the moon, on the other hand, is a gentle god with no great ambitions, and he only wants to protect the future of the elves.

The two elven gods cultivated many slave gods, assisted them in managing the continent, and further pushed the elven civilization to the pinnacle.

However, as time went on, the divergence between the two main gods grew.

The 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 of the world has not yet completed the transformation, destroy those monsters born from filth, and bring the chaotic Eastern Continent under control.

Artemis, the god of the moon, on the other hand, hoped that the sun god Helios would dispel the idea of war and maintain peace between the two continents.

However, Artemis, the gentle moon god, could not stop the sun god Helios from thinking after all, and the war eventually broke out.

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

On one side, there are elves led by the elven gods of the Western Continent, while on the other side, there are monsters in the Eastern Continent that also have the power of gods.

The war, based on the ambitions of the sun god Helios, was quite tragic.

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

In order to achieve 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 defeat brought great disaster to the Western Continent, and the entire continent was destroyed in a terrible catastrophe.

And the elven gods also fell in that catastrophe, leaving only the moon god Artemis and some slave gods.

Forced to migrate, the elves left the devastated West Continent to land on the East Continent and wage a more protracted war against the remaining monsters......

……

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

In particular, the catastrophe is described in many places in vague language, and it is obviously secretive.

Not only that, but some of the accounts also conflict with the history of the Elven Age in Charlotte's cognition.

However, after some browsing, Charlotte still has a further understanding of the mysterious elven history.

There are also many speculations about the mythological epics and origins of the Miriad continent.

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

"Those monsters...... I think it's the old gods of the Miria, right? ”

Charlotte muttered to herself.

She closed the "A Brief History of the Old World" and planned to look at the other books.

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

This young man, who has always been steady, has an anxiety that is difficult to hide between his eyebrows.

"What's wrong? Harald, what's going on? ”

Charlotte's heart jumped and she hurriedly asked.

"Teacher! Lilith She ...... Something happened! ”
