Chapter 0: The World Before the Divine Order

  Long ago, the world was a land engulfed in darkness, ruled not by kings or queens, but by a single tyrant—the Demon King. His power was unmatched, and under his rule, every kingdom, city, village, and every corner of the world bowed to his will. The land itself was marred by the scars of constant war, and the people were oppressed by his monstrous armies, who ravaged the world without mercy.

  For centuries, the Demon King reigned supreme. His very presence brought fear and suffering to all who lived beneath him. His demonic forces, composed of monstrous creatures, dark sorcerers, and loyal generals, terrorized the world. There was no hope for the oppressed, no respite from the crushing power of his rule.

  Despite his overwhelming control, there was a flicker of hope—an ember of resistance that had been smoldering for years. The Hero emerged from the ashes of the suffering world, someone who had lived through the horrors of the Demon King’s reign. This individual, forged in the fires of despair, rallied the last of the free people. They were not alone—powerful mages, skilled warriors, and hidden allies had long been waiting for this moment to strike.

  The world held its breath as a rebellion began to form. The Hero, fueled by vengeance and the desire for freedom, led the charge against the Demon King’s army. The battles that followed were brutal, and the war was devastating. But the Hero’s forces slowly began to push back, defeating the Demon King’s lieutenants one by one, until the final confrontation arrived.

  In a clash that shook the very foundations of the world, the Hero faced the Demon King in a cataclysmic battle. After years of endless conflict, the Hero, using a combination of strength, strategy, and an ancient power, struck the Demon King down, bringing his reign of terror to an end.

  With the fall of the Demon King, the world was left in ruins. Cities had been burned, forests destroyed, and the very land itself scarred by the long war. The people, broken by years of suffering, began to rebuild. But the Hero, understanding that peace could not be restored overnight, sought a way to ensure that such darkness would never rise again.

  Thus, The Divine Order was born.

  The Hero, now revered as the Founder of the Divine Order, created an organization dedicated to restoring peace and order to the world. The Divine Order worked tirelessly to rebuild the kingdoms that had fallen, reclaim the cities from ruin, and bring hope to the people. The Order spread its influence across the world, its ideals of peace and justice resonating with all.

  At the heart of the world was the Holy Kingdom, a symbol of hope and unity. From here, the Divine Council led the efforts to restore peace. The Council’s decisions guided the entire world, ensuring that no one would ever again fall under the control of a tyrant like the Demon King. Though the Founder of the Divine Order was long gone, their ideals and leadership lived on through the Council’s work.

  The Divine Order became an unchallenged authority, overseeing all lands, kingdoms, and cities. Through their guidance, peace was established, and the Order became the most powerful organization in the world. They were tasked with ensuring that the peace would not shatter, and that the horrors of the past would remain buried.

  Divine Order Command Structure:

  1. The Divine Council

  The supreme, hidden ruling body of the Divine Order. They are believed to be the chosen successors of the original Hero. However, no one has ever seen them, and most believe they are a myth. All final decisions are made by this elusive council, but their influence is felt everywhere.

  2. The Supreme Commander

  The highest visible authority within the Divine Order. This figure commands all the armies, enforces the will of the Divine Council, and manages the day-to-day operations of the Order. They are the face of the Divine Order to the world but answer only to the Divine Council.

  3. The Triumvirate

  Three executive heads under the Supreme Commander, each leading a major division:

  Strategic Division (Warfare & Tactics) – Leads armies, plans wars, and controls territory. Headed by the Warlord-General.

  Arcane Division (Magic & Research) – Regulates magical development, ancient relics, and rare elements. Led by the Magister Prime.

  Operative Division (Espionage & Enforcement) Marshal.

  4. Regional Commanders

  Powerful leaders controlling assigned zones or continents. They execute the Triumvirate's strategies and maintain the peace within their regions.

  5. Elite Units

  Specialized forces reporting directly to central command

  6. Regular Forces

  Standard army, mage corps, and operatives deployed worldwide, structured in classic military tiers.

  Power System of the World

  Power in this world is not just about raw strength; it is measured in two primary forms: circle and ring. These systems categorize individuals based on their abilities and mastery.

  Magic

  Magic is the most common form of power in the world, divided into circles, each representing the strength of a mage. A 1st-circle mage is considered a beginner, while a 5th-circle mage is a formidable force.

  Swordsmanship

  Swordsmen are classified based on their mastery of combat techniques, which are measured using rings. The more rings a swordsman possesses, the more powerful their techniques become.

  Special Abilities

  Beyond traditional magic and swordsmanship, there are rare individuals who possess special abilities—powers that transcend the natural elements. These abilities are incredibly dangerous and less common, appearing in only a few individuals across the world. They are feared, respected, and sometimes even hunted.
