Chapter 43: Demon Continent [2]
Chapter 43: Demon Continent [2]"Alright, let's begin." I sat on a nearby rock, glancing at everyone's face.
The other three slouched down in front of me.
Clearing my throat, I began.
"Long ago, the—"
Anna interrupted. "I'll hit you with a rock, if you make it sound dramatic or cringe."
"...Y-Yeah, sorry, let me continue." I said, looking to the side avoiding her gaze.
"Ahem. This world has two main continents..."
First: The Human Continent, where we humans reside, this continent is divided into five great nations: Frostvile, Pyrestone, Stormshade, Aquadore, and Terranova. Each rich with its own Elemental Essence and follow the basic law of Elementals.
Second: The Demon Continent, where all the demons and monsters reside, this continent shares its border with Pyrestone and Frostvile, which is why they are in constant threat.
Just like the Human Continent, the Demon Continent also has five kingdoms. But we only know the name of one Kingdom: Tartarus.
"Why is that?" Julius asked.
"That's because the Kingdom of Tartarus is the one situated near our border." I answered.
"Wait, I'm confused." Anna raised her hand. "Who named it 'Tartarus'? Didn't you say that its geography is still unknown? So who told you it has five kingdoms? It's not like some demon casually walked up to our border one day and announced, 'Hello, fellow humans! I'm a demon, and I live in Tartarus,' right?"
"Exactly, you are correct Anna," I nodded my head.
"Wait what!?" She blinked, "Are you messing—"
Cutting her words I continued.
"It was a Fallen. Two years ago, four single Rankers captured a Fallen alive, they tortured it for months, and soon after, it spilled everything."
'I was one of those four single rankers.'

The three leaned forward, curiosity shining in their eyes. Anna who was uninterested just a moment ago, was now attentive.
I continued.
"That's not all, the Demon Continent, also has five elementals just like us humans, and they follow the same principles of Elemental law....."
This whole world is in a state of equilibrium, if one kingdom falls, then the others will too.
Monsters and Demons are no exception, they, too, have ranks.
Information mention in one re
Her eyes widened.
'How disgusting...' She thought inwardly.
The list was divided into two sections—Priority Students and Students.
Envy's lips curled in irritation.
"Tsk..." Standing beside her, Pride let out a small scoff, her expression too twisted in disgust.
But then—
Their eyes landed on a particular name under the Students section.
Zane Skylark.
Relief and satisfaction flashed across Envy's and Pride's faces.
Envy smiled, for the first time after entering the office.
'They are all safe.' Envy thought.
'Just hang on for a bit... I'm coming.' Pride thought.
