Outer Continent.
Time swiftly passed, and in the blink of an eye, nine years went by.
The conflicts between the empires were initially confined to the Brilliant, Ripple, and Mela.
The three territories bordered each other but had different beliefs, worshiping the Holy Fire, Deep Sea, and Plague, respectively. This led to conflicts and wars that couldn't be reconciled.
Normally, the six other empires, which were untouched by the war and also believed in the "Fire of Redemption," would secretly aid the Brilliant Empire even if they did not join the war. Therefore, this war wouldn't last long and would likely end in the Brilliant Empire's victory.
However, this originally destined path was dramatically changed with the intervention of a young girl.
She... no, It is now known as Dennie Lucius.
Dennie had already ascended to become the Holy Fire Demi-God a year ago.
