Chapter 576 Chapter-576

In the beginning of the Holy Land, gods created creatures who were dependent on water and fire.

The creatures that used fire walked up to the lands and were called the Dragons. However, the creatures that used pure water magic decided to live inside the ocean to strengthen their magic skills by residing in the same element they were using.

Although, when the god of mischief created demons, some of the demons decided to go underwater and reproduce there.

The demons were clever; they enchanted and manipulated the mermaids into sleeping with them and giving birth to their offspring.

The mermaids were very innocent at the start. They didn't think twice and started reproducing with the demons.

For the next five years, the demons reproduced without any stops. But all of this came to an end when one of the gods noticed this. noVE.lb.1n

As all the other gods were informed about this, they cursed the demon race. If a demon ever tried to step inside the Stormborn sea, he would die instantly.

After that day, no demon dared to step inside the Stormborn sea, and the offspring they reproduced with the mermaids came to be known as the 'Sirens.'

Sirens were innocent children, and the gods couldn't kill them. So, they left them alive, but they didn't know that sirens had the beauty of a mermaid and the mind of a demon.

Thirty years passed without any disturbance, but after 30 years, a hurricane came that destroyed the peace completely.

The sirens started discriminating among themselves; they started assigning positions and power.

They started building an empire where the wrong was punished, and the right was rewarded, but the mermaids didn't like it.

Mermaids always thought that they should all live with love, happiness, and equality.

The sirens didn't like this thinking, and this thing started a war between the two races.

Although the mermaids were very lovely creatures, they knew how to protect themselves from the sirens.

They chose a Queen to guide them in the war and started fighting the sirens.

The sirens had to use dark energy, as they were from the demonic bloodline, and the mermaids used pure magic.

The fight continued for the next 300 years, and at last, the mermaids won, but they had to pay a very high price for winning. They lost their Queen, and that's when they understood.

Power was needed to maintain control. The sirens begged for mercy, and the mermaids showed them mercy, but on one condition: they couldn't live with them anymore.

On that day, the sea was then divided between the sirens and the mermaids. Rules were made.

The sirens went deep into the depths of the sea and built their kingdom from scratch.

Meanwhile, the mermaids also created a kingdom and assigned powers to the stronger ones to maintain peace and prepare themselves for any future attack.

The peace was maintained for the next 400 years, but the mermaids didn't know that the sirens were burning in agony and anger.

They wanted revenge, and in the fire of their revenge, they forged a monster. A monster that was designed to destroy the mermaids entirely... It was named 'Aegis.'

But as they were creating the monster, they added their blood to its DNA, and as soon as they added their blood, Aegis gained its own consciousness and got out of control.

The sirens did everything in their power to kill it, but Aegis ran away from the siren kingdom and attacked the Mermaids.

Although the mermaids were already prepared for the attack, they never expected... That such a thing would attack them.

Aegis went on a rampage for the next two days and destroyed more than half of the mermaid kingdom and finished almost 70% of their population.

King Nereus realized that if he didn't do something about this creature right now, his kin would be finished.

That's when he decided to go and seek help from the land, but when he didn't find anyone to help him, he used the last way to save his kingdom; he signed a deal with the demon King himself.

In exchange for his soul, King Nereus obtained a legendary Artifact.

The Artifact held immense powers in itself. As soon as King Nereus went back to his kingdom, he used the Artifact and sealed 'Aegis' inside his own body to save his kin from extinction.

According to the deal, his soul was extracted out of his body as soon as he used the Artifact, and his body was sealed inside a very secure room.

That room was buried under the foundation of a new mermaid kingdom, and his daughter took charge of the kingdom.

The peace returned back to the mermaid kingdom, but not for long.

King Nereus's body was still aging, even though it had no soul inside.

As the demon king's successor declared war on the human and the other kingdoms...

The number of human pirates started increasing in the Stormborn sea because it was the only place... Where the demons couldn't hurt them.

But when too many pirates started rising... Wars started happening within the sea, and many ships got destroyed during these wars.

The wrecked ships started sinking into the sea, and they landed directly over the Mermaid kingdom.

Most of the ships were destroyed completely by the defense mechanism of the mermaid kingdom before they could've reached the grounds of the kingdom, but one day... An unknown wrecked ship that was sinking into the sea carried a special type of enchanted explosive powder that was waterproof.

When the defense mechanism tried to destroy the ship, the explosive powder inside it burst out and destroyed the defense mechanism instead.

The waves that were generated out of the explosion shook the foundation of the kingdom, and 'Aegis' was released once more, but this time... He didn't attack the mermaids immediately.

He waited for the perfect moment. Aegis started creating his own Minions with the dark energy that he got from the sirens and waited for the perfect time to strike.
