As Zero was curious as to why 1 of the kingdoms in this world fell he dived more into the memory of the soul that belonged to the alv.
The Alven Kingdom of Aepilia was once a great and powerful realm, ruled by a wise and just queen. Unlike the other kingdoms that had a huge population, the alves had a problem reproducing so they were very few compared to the other nations. As the years passed, the kingdom began to decline, and its enemies grew in number and strength.
The other kingdoms and empires of Oceron saw an opportunity to strike against the weakened Alv Kingdom, and they formed an alliance to do so. The humans of the Kingdom of Eoqelon, the elves of the Empire of Enia, the dwarves of the City of Blesas, and the mages of the Magic Tower of Acesh all joined together to wage war against the Alves.
The war was long and brutal, and many lives were lost on both sides due to alves having very advanced technology. However, the combined might of the alliance was too much for the Alves to withstand, and they were eventually defeated. The queen of the Alv Kingdom was captured and brought before the alliance as a prisoner, and the kingdom was annexed and divided among the other powers.
The Alves were devastated by their defeat, and their once-great kingdom was left in ruins. Many Alves were killed or enslaved, while others fled into the wilderness to escape their enemies. The Alv Kingdom was no more, and it was remembered only as a distant memory. The other kingdoms and empires of Oceron celebrated their victory, but they also knew that the cost of the war had been high.
However unknown to the elves and dwarves the Magic Tower of Acesh and the Human Kingdom of Eoqelon had a secret plan to obtain the most advanced technology of the Alv Kingdom of Aepilia. They knew that the Alves were a powerful and technologically advanced civilization, and they wanted to gain access to their knowledge and resources.
The two powers formed an alliance with the other kingdoms and empires of Oceron, pretending to join forces against the Alves in order to gain their trust. They then launched a surprise attack on the Alv Kingdom, catching the Alves off guard and quickly overwhelming them.

However, 10 years after they had what they wanted, the Magic Tower and the Human Kingdom betrayed the other kingdoms and empires and turned on them. They used their new weapons and technology to wage war on the other powers, quickly gaining the upper hand and dominating the battlefield.
The other kingdoms and empires were caught off guard by the sudden betrayal, and they were unable to match the power of the Magic Tower and the Human Kingdom. They were currently still waging war against each other.
After the betrayal of the Magic Tower and the Human Kingdom, the elves of the Empire of Enia and the dwarves of the City of Blesas were left to pick up the pieces. They had been allies in the war against the Alv Kingdom, but now they found themselves at odds with one another, unable to trust or rely on each other as they had before.
The elves were furious at the dwarves for their role in the betrayal, and they accused them of being greedy and selfish. The dwarves, on the other hand, felt that the elves had not done enough to support them in the war and that they had abandoned them when they needed them most.
The two powers began to lose ground against the Magic Tower and the Human Kingdom, as their infighting and mistrust hampered their efforts. They were unable to coordinate their attacks or make effective use of their resources, and they were quickly overrun by the superior technology and military might of their enemies.
As the war dragged on, it became clear that the elves and dwarves could not win. They were forced to retreat and regroup, hoping to find a way to turn the tide of the conflict. However, with each passing day, it seemed less and less likely that they would be able to do so.
The betrayal of the Magic Tower and the Human Kingdom had far-reaching consequences, and the elves and dwarves were paying the price. They were left to wonder what might have been if they had been able to maintain their alliance and work together against their common enemies. However, it was too late for regrets, and they were left to face the grim reality of their situation.
The war was being fought for the sake of the greed and ambition of those in power, and the cost was high. Many lives were lost, and the world of Oceron was forever changed by the conflict.
With that Zero understood the situation of the world he was currently in but he still would need more information as to where this world was and if there were any gods and goddesses near them. There was no church or major religion in this world as most believes in the spirits that lived in harmony with nature.
‘My best bet for finding the information I need will probably lie with either the elves or the magic tower. For now, though the thing we need most is a place to stay in this world. I guess I’ll head to Eoqelon the human kingdom. For the sake of comfort, I’ll look for a low-class noble and we can figure out our next move.’
As Zero looked down on the battlefield he now knew this had once been a city in the Aepilia Dynasty but it was razed to the ground and turned into a battlefield for the new war. Now it made sense to him why a majority of the souls he had taken were those of the alves. He thought it was a shame before he flew off in the direction of Eoqelon.
