Chapter 184 The Tree of Blood! Part-3.
"The humans had won the thousand-year war by that time and they wanted to take this whole continent under their own command..." (Kai)
In front of the doubtful eyes of everyone, Kai patiently started to explain everything.
...
(Info dumps ahead, More lore of this world...)
Before the thousand-year war, the continent was plagued with millions of demons wandering around in the wilderness, which used to cause major problems for human travelers.
Traveling from one city to another was a daunting task and trade was difficult. (It was a time when the first SS-ranker hadn\'t appeared yet... S-rankers were the peak powerhouses of that time...)
The mana density of those times was much thinner than the current times. And as everyone knows, the thinner mana density is, the rarer it is for higher-ranked individuals to ascend.
(A Theory suggests that if mana disappears from this world, everyone... including the SS-rankers will regress in strength and become nothing but ordinary individuals once again...)
Then King Allen was born, and the golden generation came into being. The First SS-ranker of the human race, King Allen took the matter into his own hands, he declared war on the whole demon race.
He was the first person to establish a proper \'awakener\'s army\'.
Under his command, the army human army fought the millions of demons that were scattered around in the wilderness and got rid of all the demons that were in the human continent.
But the Demon King of that time was not pleased with this action, he obviously counterattacked and led his army to counterattack.
In response to the demon king\'s frontal assault, it is recorded that King Allen ripped the Demon king apart in their first fight, and then he mercilessly killed and slaughtered all of the royal demons of that era.
Due to this, a new demon king didn\'t appear for about three hundred years after that.
King Allen established the alliance with other races using various means. (He beat the sh*t outta the elf king of that time and established the alliance by force... although this isn\'t recorded in history books, it\'s an actual fact...)
After the defeat of the demon king, the demon race lost its original unity and thus they became even more of an easy target.
The alliance then waged wars all over the world, and the mass killing of demons became a norm.
People started organizing demon-hunting events to compete against each other in an attempt to further reduce the demon influence from this world.
Three hundred years later, a new Demon King appeared, and then the war continued in its fullest form once again.
Just like that, Centuries went by and at the end of the thousand-year war, the alliance finally succeeded in pushing the demons back to the demon continent.
Due to the combined effort of the alliance, Demons were forced to retreat. Except for the Demon continent, no demons remained on other continents. This was a great victory in the truest sense.
The war ended, and the alliance remained strong even after the mysterious disappearance of King Allen from this world.
The alliance always kept the demon race at bay and never let them take an extra inch of land outside the demon continent.
(Why didn\'t the all-powerful King Allen completely annihilate the demons from the very existence, you ask? The answer to this question is a top secret \'Information\' which only the SS-rankers know about...)
After the disappearance of King Allen, a new era started humans started to claim the whole human continent as their own.
They wanted to usurp as much land and resources as possible for themselves. And to do this they had to kill or push every other race that resided on the human continent.
The humans of that time had determined one thing, and that was the inevitable increase in population would become a major problem for them.
They knew that the human race\'s population would increase in the future at a tremendous rate and they would need unimaginable resources at that time.
Thus to grab more resources for their future descendants, it was extremely important to push all other races out of the human continent.
Most SS-rankers of that time were not in favor of that decision thus they never took part in this pointless killing, very few top-ranking people led the armies to reclaim more land.
One such person was Tomar Kinya von Silver.
Tomar was influenced by the ideology that it was their duty to ensure that their future descendants had a proper foothold in this world.
To ensure that his descendants could live in a land filled with rich resources and immense wealth, Tomar led his subordinates and took the task of hunting all the dragons that were residing on the human continent, in his own hands.
Along with his summoned beast, the \'divine Spirit\'s General Kawaki\', he fought one dragon every month.
Most dragons who resided on the human continent were outliers who were kicked out by the dragon race and had nowhere else to go, they were all not that strong and were only around S-rank at most.
Kai being an SS-rank spirit, easily ripped them all apart and his name became infamous among all the dragons of that time.
In his time, Kai killed around 137 dragons, including the young ones. (Once he raided a dragon nest along with Tomar, they would first kill the dragon and then deal with their children too.
Those two didn\'t even spare the eggs and broke them apart or ate them for breakfast.
In the eyes of the rouge dragons of that time, Tomar and Kai were absolute menace, their name was extremely infamous.
Kai was a summoned beast and he couldn\'t go against Tomar\'s orders, even if he wanted to, he couldn\'t spare any of the dragons they were hunting.
(Lia\'s sword, Ambient Silver, is blessed with the blood of the hearts of hundreds of dragons that Tomar once killed…)
…
(Back to the present time…)
After explaining all this, Kai nodded his head in satisfaction and said:
"Now you understand? Many circumstances led to that decision at that time… ideology is a powerful thing you see…." (Kai)
Although others didn\'t completely agree with Kai\'s unconcerned killings of the dragons, they also knew that there was no point in thinking too much about the past anymore.
Aaron shook his head and said in a defeated tone:
"Sigh~ it\'s not like we can change the past now, things happened as they were supposed to… forget it, It\'s not like I can fight you either way…" (Aaron)
Hearing Aaron\'s words, Kai tilted his head in confusion and asked.
"Hmm, in my current state I might not be your opponent though…" (Kai)
Aaron immediately shook his head and replied with a smile:
"Hehe, I won\'t fall for your taunting, moreover, I don\'t like to overestimate my abilities, I know about your powers General Kai, so I don\'t underestimate you…" (Aaron)
"Ugh, you are still thinking of me as a bad guy… it will take a long time to clear my bad reputation it seems…" (Kai)
Just when Kai was lamenting his past self, Ellie looked at him with a confused look and asked:
"I have been meaning to ask for a while now, if you were already that strong, how did your dragon hunt come to an end?" (Ellie)
Hearing Ellie\'s question a sour look appeared on Kai\'s face.
"Ugh, I don\'t like talking about that…" (Kai)
"hoho, my curiosity has been piqued, tell us about it General Kai…" (Aaron)
Being urged by the two of them, Kai had no other choice but to tell them the whole truth.
"Ah, well you see, we killed so many dragons, obviously the news eventually reached the ears of the \'Dragon King\'…." (Kai)
*Hiss!**Gasp!*
Hearing the word \'Dragon King\' from Kai\'s mouth, everyone sucked their breaths and a chill ran down their spine.
"Don\'t tell me, you!?" (Aaron)
Aaron and Ellie both had a shocked look on their faces when they heard about this matter.
They are both S-rank dragons, and they both know how much weight the word \'Dragon King\' carries in the current era.
Ignoring the shocked look on everyone\'s faces, Kai nodded his head.
"You see, I and Tomar attacked you Aaron, and your mother got angered over that, she was friends with the dragon king, and she went ahead and complained to him about us…" (Kai)
Kai\'s eyes narrowed and his voice became solemn as he continued:
"The dragon king took her words to heart, he personally descended in front of us…" (Kai)
"Rest was but a one-sided slaughter, he killed us both on the spot like he was swatting some annoying flies, he smashed my innards out, in one punch, ugh…" (Kai)
"I still remember that sight, that being was strong, too strong I would say… he might be on par with King Allen…" (Kai)
…
