Chapitre 5: History of the Seven Races
*pit-pat**pit-pat*
Dark gloomy clouds surrounded the sky's as bright white light illuminated the imperial palace as in a majestic room laid a dark skinned old man with a bright golden crown floating above his head. His face was pale and his white short hair and beard clearly reflected his age. He laid as his king-sized bed as a man in white robes knelt beside him as his hand had a bright white glow. He then got up and shook his head at the people behind him.
"Can't the healers do something?" A young fair man with bright red eyes and short yellow hair yelled as he looked sad, worried, and angry. He couldn't accept how useless he was now, when his father the King is near death's door.
"Don't worry Derek I have reached my time and I have to choose a new King," the man on the bed spoke with a low and crooked voice. As he looked at eight more people behind his son. The Healer and some of his subjects.
"It seems that Erica must become Queen then," the King slightly laughed as he thought about his daughter he banished. He truly regretted his actions back then.
"Your majesty, she can't be Queen," Duke Oswald rejected as he couldn't accept the princess as the new Queen. A middle-aged man with long black hair and bright blue eyes, plus a well-built body. He wore a blue suit if armour around him with a phoenix insignia on it.
"Who else do you think is a pure Royal blood huh?!" The King asked sternly as he looked at the Duke with serious eyes. The Duke then calmed down as he bowed his head in shame.
"Derek, even though you are not born out of the pure blood of the Royal family, I loved both you and Erica's mum so much," the King said gently with a smile on his face.
Derek frowned his face as he looked at his father having a creepy smile.
"Ah yes, those two pairs of beautiful bosoms and beautiful fair faces are only for me. Hehehe, this old man of yours was a hottie in his days to have gotten two beautiful and charming women." The King admitted without an ounce of shame.
Derek just sighed as he looked at his father. His mother was just a belly dancer who came to dance for him on some special occasions. So the king fancied her beauty which ended up having Derek. Luckily the King was a good man and never mistreated both of them, but he had to suffer beatings from the Queen every day. And the queen was actually very nice and caused no harm to them.
Unfortunately, the queen passed away so early around her 40s and Derek's mother followed her two years ago.
Now it was just left with the king who was also dying.
"As a half-human half-vampire, some of the nobles in the Kingdom won't accept Derek as King. So child please get them to bring Erica back to the capital," he proclaimed as he looked at his subjects.
They all bowed their heads in agreement to the king's words except someone.
"But your majesty the princess has been known to be dumb since bird. And knows nothing but trying to train with a sword. How would she find a king if she has a lot of scars on her body….." Duke Oswald rebuked him as for some reason he didn't want the princess to be king.
"Duke Oswald!!" The King got up as he slammed his hand on the wall which immediately broke into pieces creating a huge hole there. His bright orange eyes burning with fury and the bright red aura around him could be seen clearly. Even though he may be old he can't be underestimated.
Duke Oswald shuddered in fear as he realised he had angered the King. How could he forget even though his king acted dumb sometimes, it didn't change that his king was a level 40 Berserker. There's no one in the Kingdom who isn't aware of the king's might. With him ruling no other nation dared to attack their country Orgador.
He immediately knelt down as he dared not to meet the King's eyes.
"Who made such a stupid rumour that my daughter was dumb?!" The King asked as he glared at the Duke who was sweating profoundly.
"Erica could talk about the history of Orgador when she was just 4 years old. She even helped the queen with politics when she was just 6. And even now I might even fear how knowledgeable she might be. That's why I am leaving the kingdom to her. Do you think I'm someone who makes unreasonable decisions when it comes to who rules the country? I shall hear no objections from anyone. And do tell the others. They need to prepare for her arrival. Anyone who objects is welcome to present to me their heads!!" The King roared as his voice could be heard throughout the castle.
"Hah, Erica is a very intelligent child, but she wanted to be a mercenary," the king cried as small tears dripped down his face, "How can I let my beautiful daughter become a barbaric mercenary? That's the only reason why we banished her. To change her mind," the King said as he tried to wipe the invisible tears off his face.
All the people present in the room didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Make sure to bring her back to the castle at once. This king is too old for all this drama," the king concluded as he laid back on his bed to sleep.
Derek just looked at his father who was resting peacefully then he realized what is happening. His father wanted to dump the kingdom work on Erica! Derek's face twitched as he noticed his father's strategy, but he himself didn't want to be king so it's better that Erica takes the throne. However, they had to ensure that she takes the throne.

Erica looked at the little water spirit crying blobs of tears.
"Please don't cry, since I summoned you I have no intentions of abandoning you," Erica said nervously as she looked at the small spirit's sad face brightened up.
She floated around Erica joyfully as she realized her new master wasn't like the others who would only want high-level spirits.
However, Erica wanted to run the cute little spirit's face so much!!
'Sooo adorable!!' Erica squealed in her mind as she looked at the cute little spirit. 'I really did well this time,' Erica said proudly as she looked at the blue Spirit.
'Oh yeah I almost forgot what my main objective was,' Erica realised as she immediately went to the golden cupboards and made sure to pick books about the history and maps of the country and world. She also saw some books about magic which she picked up and piled them up on her table. It was time to read!
"If you're bored little spirit you can play around. I'm just going to read some books," Erica instructed as she focused on her books, and in her hand was the book [ About the Seven Races of Orfelia ]
In this world existed 7 races. Demons, Vampires, Werewolves, Humans, Dwarfs, Elves, Spirits.
During the passage of time, all these beings coexisted together until the vampires and werewolves rebelled. They wanted to control the other races for themselves and launched a full-scale war upon all the other races. Why should they all live together in peace and harmony if they could control the other races? If so, they won't need to hold back in the amount of blood they drank or the number of beings they kill.
However, these beings truly underestimated the other races. They thought humans were weak and weren't gifted with supernatural strength or magical abilities like them. And they thought the elves were only made to be beautiful and delicate wholes dwarfs would only waste their time making swords and Spirits admiring nature as for demons they dared not to provoke them since they were much stronger than them.
But how wrong they were when they actually faced these beings.
The humans displayed their battle prowness which they used to kill several vampires and werewolves. Not only were some of them skilled in fighting others were also skilled in high-tier magic which greatly shocked the vampires and werewolves.
Theses two races thought they had a chance since they killed some relatively weak humans and couldn't quench their desire to kill more of them. But who would have thought that the first race 'Humans' they provoked were able to match them in battle?
Their mindset about being the strongest beings immediately faded when they also provoked the Spirits. When the Werewolves and Vampires attacked the lesser spirits they provoked the five great Spirits Kings. Wind, Water, Earth, Fire, Darkness, Light Spirit Kings!
That's when they were brought back to reality when the Spirit Kings almost caused the balance of life around where they lived to fade and most of the Vampires and Werewolves starved to death others were mercilessly killed by the Spirit Kings.
Even so, they couldn't stop this since the Vampires and Werewolves chose to split their armies to attack the other races. So even if they wanted to stop the war, lack of communication couldn't permit them.
Also, the Vampires and Werewolves weren't working together but as different armies each wanting to conquer another race.
For Elves, their entire army they sent to them were eliminated. The survivors could only remember the crazy magic spells the elves used to kill them and the strange beast they could summon from other dimensions to slaughter their enemies.
During those years the Vampires and Werewolves became enemies of those beings and fought for a decade until the unexpected happened.
5 heavenly beings descended upon the earth stopping the war of the races. These people were giving the title Rulers. Those who created the worlds. All the other races were force to sign a treaty to stop the war as these Rulers disappeared never to be seen, but they were still rumours that these beings were still watching the planet from above.
