"were you leaving under a rock all this time?"

"W-What do you mean?" I asked nervously.

'WHAT?'

Yato's revelation echoed in my mind like a thunderclap. The serene landscape around me suddenly held layers of history, veiled by the beauty of the Western mountain range.

"The first war against demons?" I repeated, my eyes widening with astonishment. The implications of such a revelation were immense, shattering my preconceived notions of the mountains merely acting as a natural barrier.

Yato nodded solemnly. "Long ago, this very region was the battleground where humans, united with magical beings, faced the demonic invasion. It was a war that determined the fate of our world."
