The profound knowledge contained in the artifacts surpassed anything they had known. Even though they were not able to increase their strength, they used their knowledge and founded the Academy.
The Academy was built using the resources from the planet including the remains of the war and the knowledge obtained from the artifacts. They built powerful defenses to shield their planet and created an independent location hidden in the surrounding folds of the space around the planet to act as the frontline against future invasions. Then a new system of training was created for the upcoming generations. A new technique which enabled the people to connect deeply with their body and soul, borrowing the primal energy from the Universe to force open their hidden nodes in their body which they called 'Chakra'. More and more talents were conscripted in the Academy, the retainers of the three progenitors used their untapped talent and potential to push forth a new era of peace.
Along with these, a rapid development of advanced weapons and technology took place to combat the enemies by reverse engineering and combining it with the knowledge gained from the Artifacts. Preparations were in full swing in order to fight the next wave.
After more than 36000 kalpas from the 'Battle of Gods' the main force of the enemies arrived. This time the human race was prepared, but alas, their main force was too powerful even for the current human race. The individual strength of each human did not differ much from their foes, in fact at some point it even exceeded them, but what brought despair to the human race were the formidable weapons which were powerful enough to plunge the entire planet into destruction.
The brave warriors and the descendants of the previous battle once again sacrificed themselves using the divine artifacts bestowed by the three progenitors which were now more powerful bolstered by the knowledge from the four artifacts. But the cost of using such artifacts was immense. Each use of the artifact was followed by the death of the brave warrior. Casualties started to increase. Just when humanity seemed on the verge of destruction, the three great progenitors once again took the battle into their hands. They used the last vestige of their Vital Force to create a powerful zone shielding the entire planet from such powerful weapons.
Even though they were successful in repelling the horrifying and destructive weapons, the three lost their powerful bodies which deteriorated due to the weakening of their Vital Force. All that was left of them was their astral forms. Although there was no body, these astral forms contained all their knowledge they had gathered throughout the 36000 kalpas and their relentless study of the Artifacts.
Feeling intense sorrow for the loss of these warriors who had sacrificed themselves for the betterment of the human race, they decided to select their successors who would continue their legacy and act as the Guardian of the Human Race.
But once again, the enemies turned out to be more sinister and took the human race by another surprise.
It was not only the human race who had obtained knowledge of the working of the Universe and the various Laws which governed them. Since the external races were not able to destroy the human race by sheer strength and power, they resorted to sinister strategies. They were able to send hidden envoys from their races disguised as humans by somehow planting their 'minds' into a human body.
These envoys started to create internal disputes among the human race. They targeted the new generations who were still weak and did not have much knowledge about the external races and the age old war. The envoys had decided to cut the roots of the human race by this.
By the time the Academy was aware about it, they couldn't do anything. As new generations started to forget about the war between the external races and the human race, the Academy was getting more and more powerful while the members trained more and more. After the disappearance of the three powerful beings, the Academy was led by the four tribes, each responsible for protecting one of the four artifacts.
The upper echelons of the Academy decided that this matter would be left to the three great beings to handle, upon their return. The concept of time and the knowledge passed by the three great beings disappeared from the new generations and the human race was divided into their present form. The three great beings were now only a thing of distant legends and mythology. The only descendants of the three great beings now resided into the land of the three beings, in the central part of the world. The world forgot about the hidden war of the worlds and the threat that the human race faced.
'Hmm, there is a lot of stuff missing in this book. What happened to the three beings, and the status of the war and also of the envoys?'
Aria went through the other books, but could not find information about it.

Aria frowned as his mind wandered to the mentioning of the four artifacts.
'Was it talking about them?'
Then he noticed the number and closed the books, sighing on his seat. He closed his eyes and reminisced about what had happened till now.
He gently touched the back of his head. He could feel the throbbing of the violet pearl which seemed to be somewhat connected to it.
His memories were still chaotic and disoriented.
"Hmm. You have gained a basic knowledge of history, it seems."
Just when he was thinking about the problem of his memories, a voice interrupted his thought process.
It was Old Seven who had arrived at some point unknowingly.
