After heaven was divided, the demons and angels went their own way. Of course, the demons thought that they could build a brand new place in hell, but due to the undying flames, they never got a chance to advance.

They waited for thousands of years but it was for naught since the flames were undying! This meant that their entire place would be in flames forever and ever.

This problem was soon solved by the few humans who entered the realm of demons, that is, the Hell. They held a power which was in between the Gods And the Demons.

That power and capacity enabled them to create a device that allowed the undying flames to cool down. Yes, they turned into lava which later became an essential part of Earth.

Because of the humans' help, Hell was renamed as Nether World or Netherland.

So how was the earth created exactly?

It was because of the punishment received by the humans from the Gods and the demons!

Because the humans sided both of them, the Gods and Demons, both gave them cruel punishments despite the fact that humans helped the demons.

Oh yes, just because the humans helped demons, the demons allowed humans to come to their world with ease, that is, committing bad deeds.

The classification of the deeds into - good and bad - was decided by the humans.

Of course, both were of equal importance, however since Julius had higher and greater position and power respectively, he made it seem as if Good deeds were supposed to be something that one should do.

Bad deeds were determined something that one shouldn't do and it was all the Gods' tactics. By this, they could increase their number since the humans would join them after death by doing good to others.

The demons, on the other hand, would have fewer numbers and this would lead to their declining.

Since the majority of the people started to believe in Gods, other people followed them too. After all, going with the majority was something that could be called an innate capacity or capability.

Well, every race and beings wanted to live the longest and survive in nature after all, may it be Gods, Demons or Humans, or any others.

That was how Humans got separated from Gods and Demons, however, their mixed races continued in their own respective realms. Indeed, they were belittled by the bigger pure races for being a mix, but that was how life continued.

Basically, one thing led to the other and now there were three realms created, one called the Earth, the previously existing Heaven, and the Netherland!

In any case, because of these three partitions, there were many things that were changing. For example, the mana that was concentrated in heaven was now present on Earth, however, that was decreasing consistently since they didn't have any source.

The same happened in Netherland too. That was the reason why the demons and humans had the war to conquer each other's territory because both of them realized that the other one kept getting weaker.

The Gods sat back and watched the show and when finally the war was over, almost the entire mana depleted.

Oh well, this was when the true meaning of ear started. The Gods dominated and started to kill anything end everything because they wanted to show their power.

Of course, this was because they had unlimited mana supply.

In any case, their plans of total domination of Earth and the Netherland failed because of Ten great beings.

No one has any idea about the whereabouts of those great beings nor have they any idea about their exact identity.

Because of their immense power that could defy the law and bend Gods to their own will, they were called Overlords, the ruler the Lords and Supreme ones!

They had different powers bit altogether, they were unbeatable.

Everyone had to move out of their paths. They were so strong that they destroyed each and every scheme of the Gods and Demons.

They were about to conquer all the places but unfortunately, they all disappeared!

No one had any idea about their origins or their ends buy one thing was for sure, they were the ones that brought more mana to Earth.

Right after their disappearance, the world started to change, but one thing was noted.

Some people claiming to be apostles of those Overlords came into existence from time to time.

Of course, they disappeared soon too without leaving any trace.

After the disappearance of exactly 10 apostles from each Overlords side, the dungeons, portals, and weird gates started to appear.

With this, humanity came to know the existence of a foreign power which were not restricted by any laws made by Gods or Demons.

It was believed that the Overlords had come from those very places!

The Ten Overlords were – The Dark Overlord, The Void Overlord, The Blood Overlord, The Vampire Overlord, The Dragon Overlord, The Werewolf Overlord, The Elf Overlord, The Death Overlord, The Overlord Of Time, and The Overlord Of Beginning.

These were the ten overlords that were present at the starting and had protected earth.

They came from different races that resided on the Earth. Needless to say, their identities were quite different from the simple race that was specified.

Even if an Overlord was of the Elf tribe, it didn't necessarily mean that he had come from the Earth!

So in conclusion, one thing was for sure, there existed similar beings in some parallel space and only to protect their own kind, the overlords came from that space.

The Overlords then chose their own apostles to rule the world, but not always would the apostle walk in the righteous path.

That was the same for the overlords too, they became greedy too. After returning to their own space, they thought about returning and conquering Earth for their own gain.

Unfortunately, this idea spawned in almost all the overlords at the same time.

They all returned to Earth at the same time. After hearing each other they realized that only one person could rule the entire earth.

Due to that war started among them.

Once they fought together side by side and now they were fighting against each other only to get a small piece of land – Earth.

It seemed like Earth was much more valuable than their friendship, for them at least.

It was indeed weird, all of them got the same idea or same thinking at the same time which was nothing more than an abnormal occurrence.

Yes, the ones behind this were the Gods.

Although they failed to defeat the overlords when they were combined and failed to know where they went, they were able to successfully install Greed in them.

The only four Overlords who weren't affected by this were – The Overlord Of Time, The Overlord Of Beginning, The Void Overlord, and the Dark Overlord.

The remaining six overlords started waging war which caused greater destruction. They were immortal, but that didn't mean that they could wage war for eternity.

Being immortal doesn't mean that one cannot be stopped or sealed.

Yes, the Six overlords who went on a rampant were stopped by the God – Julius.

He wasn't the one who schemed all this, the ones who were under him were the ones who did this.

He was genuinely sad to see the humans die, well, they were his family earlier and used to live with him in heaven after all.

That was why he thought about intervening and stopping the war.

The other four overlords who were in a different space felt something strange.

All of them suddenly returned to Earth only to find all the six overlords defeated.

Julius was pretty much injured after fighting with them, but he still had the strength to spare.

He could easily take on another overlord, maybe even two. But he wouldn't be able to fight against all the four overlords who weren't hurt at all.

But thankfully the remaining four overlords weren't some battle maniacs. They were ready to listen to reasons patiently.

They found out what had happened and started suggesting many things that could be done.

Humanity had almost ended because of the six overlords who waged terrifying wars. Thankfully, they were now sealed with their powers scattered all around the world due to which it would easily take at least a millennium year for them to gain their powers back.

'Boom'

And just when Julius and the remaining four overlords were discussing something important, a sudden attack landed on them and destroyed the nearby lands.

The explosion was so powerful and huge that half of Earth was engulfed with it, probably the humans and any beings within those areas were already dead!

To be continued…
