Officially, there are 5 continents recognized in this world. There are unknown lands hidden in these continents but that's a story for another time.
The continent Alzaria, the biggest continent in the land belongs to Vampires.
The continent Murindo, the second biggest continent in the land belongs to Elves.
The continent Welan, the third biggest continent in the land belongs to humans.
The continent Torantio, the smallest continent in the land belongs to the dwarves.
The continent Yolando, the unexplored continent is considered to be the biggest in terms but due to it being unexplored and conquered by demons, Alzaria naturally claimed its throne.
The term Avian was termed by some asshole we don't know of but the world's extraordinary beings who have wings and can control elemental powers are indeed called by that term.
There are naturally 7 elements that everybody knows.
FIRE
WATER
WIND
EARTH
LIGHTNING
ICE
LIGHT
DARK
As per common knowledge, light is the element that only occurs once an eternity while dark only occurs rarely. It's not predictable like light which occurs once a 1000 years.
The other elements are basic and can be acquired when one becomes 15 years old. One can only wield 2 elements. The rare prodigies can hold more than that but there has been no one until in the history of any species except the 1st emperor who held all 8 elements.
Of course, since powers exist, so does monarchy. The 1st emperor naturally had children. Those descendants are the ones today who are ruling the human continent.
The royal family.
The royal family consists of the descendants of the 1st emperor. The emperor in the current timeline is Morgan H Welan. He is the 124th emperor to claim the throne in the continent, Welan which belongs to humans.
There are 5 noble houses that work for the emperor in the well-being of the kingdom. Well, I think that's enough history to get to the main part.
7000 years ago, the 1st emperor prophesized that 6 teenagers will be chosen to wield the power of gods to defeat kiops. He didn't mention anything, what god, what power, just blank.
However, the 92nd emperor, Hilad H Welan said that he had found the personal diary of the 1st emperor. He also mentioned that it consisted of the name of the gods and what powers they will give to the 6 chosen younglings.
Contrary to people's expectations, the diary wouldn't be revealed until that fated day.

The species are known up to date above are Elves, Vampires, dwarves, humans, demons, and finally the most hated species before demons, Kiops.
The Elves are prideful creatures who have absolute control of mana. They are creatures who have pointy ears and are said to be blessed by the nature goddess herself.
The dwarves are creatures that according to their name, are short. They are creatures who are said to invent the first piece of technology in the world. They are referred to as tech kings by all the species as their technology is top tier if compared to the latter species.
Vampires. The species survive by drinking the blood of humans only. Though they can survive by drinking other species' blood. They have no lifespan since they can live infinitely by drinking blood. They are second to elves in terms of mana controlling and first in terms of strength.
Demons. They are known to be hostile towards all races. They were the enemy of all races including kiops but the demon king, Martin formed a peace treaty with every race excluding kiops. This confused all commoners and nobles in every race to the fact that would the respective race's leaders forgive the demon race and form a treaty with them.
They all came under the assumption due to the 1st emperor's words, the races have joined hands. { A.N: The words are in the synopsis so don't ask me :) }
Kiops. There's not much known about this species since they are staying hidden. Only high-ranking people of the respective know about them.

Outskirts of East Murindo, the place where Welan and Murindo get connected through the land.
A group of human children( 7 children) could be seen hanging upside down where the rope is connected to a long metal pole.
They were being beaten ruthlessly by a long whip brown in color by a man. The man was wearing an armored silver color and his face was full of small scars. The children's cries resonated throughout the thickly dense forest.
"Tell me you fucking dipshits! How did you get into our border!?" shouted the man as he whipped the child's face.
"W-e-e-e," the child stammered to speak but the man obviously wasn't in the right state of mind to listen to the child calmly.
"You stammering shit!" shouted the man as he raised his hand to whip the child again and aimed for his mouth.
Swoosh!
An arrow penetrated the man's skull as he let out a low cry. He dropped his whip and fell down to his knees.
50 meters from the area where the man was lying lifeless, a teen with red hair and black eyes could be seen crouching on a tree's branch with a bow in his hand. The bow was silver-colored with runic symbols engraved on its side. The string glowed red for a second before returning to its normal silver color.
"Target down," whispered the man keeping his hands on the red earpiece in his left ear.
"Proceed to save the children, Blake," a voice resonated in the ear of the red-haired teen named Blake.
"...Noah, it may be a trap. There must be guards waiting for me to ambush," whispered Blake.
"You've got 25 seconds. I'm sure it's only a sensory trap, so it must take 9 seconds for them to come from the camp 120 meters away after getting notified of your arrival and 2 seconds to position themselves," said Noah calmly from the other side.
"What about the remaining 14 seconds," asked Blake.
"Well...The 14 seconds might be your doom if I fail or the completion of the 100th mission of our team," said Kayden with a chuckle.
Blake did not reply but asked an entirely different question.
"Where the heck are you?"
"You know where I'm," said Kayden playfully from the other side.

2 minutes before the conversation between Blake and Noah...
124 meters from where Blake is positioned, a small bonfire could be seen brightening its surroundings.
2 blue tents were surrounding the bonfire at a small distance and 3 jeeps were sitting idle near them.
A woman with brownish hair and a man with a bald head could be seen making out near the campfire half-naked, They were wearing brown colored shirts with a crown symbol on the back of their shirt. Their pants were also the same color but the woman's pant was torn lightly revealing her cleavage.
As they kissed, the man saw blood splattering on his face. He saw a hole in the middle of the forehead of the women's which was leaking blood right now.
The man was about to shout in panic but an ax came flying from his left side and severed his head.
His head dropped to the silently while the part where the head was severed became a fountain of blood.
A figure with long blonde hair came in view silently. The flying Axe came to the figure's hand as her dress code was revealed by the brightness of the bonfire. She was a teen. She was wearing a black vest and tight black pants which held a brown colored holster. The ax was in silver color and it had different runic engravings different from Blake's.
She dragged the two bodies and the head to the thickly dense forest which was full of darkness.
"Did you finish them, Amelia?" Kayden's voice resonated in Amelia's ears.
"Yes, tell that idiot to proceed with the shot," said the young teen with a cold voice.
"Copy that," said Kayden.

Present.
Blake stepped near the long pole which made a small alarm go off in the camp which was 120 meters away. The alarm sound was nothing but a peacock's shreel. It resonated for 2 seconds until 3 men from each tent came shirtless hurrying and picking up their guns.
"Get on the jeeps!" shouted a man who had tattoos on his bald head. 4 men got on 1 jeep while the other three were on the three.
"Where's the Captain?!" shouted one of the men while starting the jeep but due to the sound of the jeep starts, his voice did not go through to the other jeep members.
The one who shouted drove as he stamped hard on the accelerator. As he was about to make a turn due to the trees, he heard an explosion on his right side.
He saw his comrade's jeep blown away as it crashed onto a tree.
"FUCK!," he shouted but the realization now only struck him.
'Including him, three people should be on this jeep while the other contained the other three who were blown. Who was the 4th who got on? His physique was different from Captain!' thought the man but it was too late.
As they were about 30 meters from the pole, he turned back to see his comrades slashed in the neck. As he prepared to jump in panic, he saw a blue dagger in front of his eyes. After that, he felt immense pain in his neck as he looked down to see his neck slashed.
He kept his hands to stop the blood flow but he was kicked out of the jeep as he crashed onto a tree. The jeep was about to smash onto the pole where 2 children remained hanging while Blake was removing the ropes.
Before that could happen, a leg smashed the brake, and a hand-turned the wheel right side. The jeep came skitting near the pole and stopped just before it could hit the pole.
After a 5 minute silence which included Blake rescuing the children, the door of the jeep opened and a teen with green hair and eyes came into view. He was wearing a black shirt and black pants which suited and glasses which made him completely unrelated to the surroundings.
"Whoah! That was fun!" shouted the teen as he closed the jeep's door and approached Blake.
"Fun, was it Kayden?" said Blake with a frown while removing the ropes of the children's legs who were unconscious with a knife.
"Situation?" asked the green-haired teen named Kayden seriously overshadowing his previous behavior.
"4 children have critical injuries while the other 3 have scars on their back. They will survive until we go to Potren.," said Blake.
"Got it. The helicopter is coming in ETA 7 minutes so there's no problem," said Kayden as he stretched his arms.
"Where's Amelia," asked Blake.
"Ah...your girlfriend already left after completing her part, Her ability is to teleport after all," said Kayden while yawning.
"Shut up. She's not my girlfriend. She could have come with us though...," said Blake as he mumbled the last words alone.
"Well, you better confess to he-," Kayden's words were interrupted as he sensed a terrifying pressure in the distance.
He turned around to see Blake completely frozen in his spot looking up... Noah looked up to see a huge meteor coming towards their distance which was huge. Huge enough to destroy the whole area. The meteor was covered in flames which were like hell's flame. Its heat could be felt by Noah and Blake even though they were far away from it. It's brightness-covered kilometers!
"Captain! Get out of there!" Amelia's panicked voice resonated in Kayden's ears through his black earpiece.
Blake turned right to see Noah standing just like him. He was waiting for Noah to say anything.
The meteor's speed increased as it came towards Noah, Blake, and the children at a terrifying speed.
Blake made his resolve and spoke to Amelia.
"This may not be the best time Amelia but I lo-"
Kayden only said 4 words to Amelia which interrupted Blake's confession.
"It's an elemental attack,"
Kayden threw a square-like box towards Blake which landed in front of Blake who had the children behind his back.
A blue-colored barrier surrounded him and the children as Kayden sighed in relief. Blake noticed this and shouted...
"Kayden! NO! DISSOLVE THIS DAMN BARRIER RIGHT NOW!" Blake banged on the blue barrier helplessly.
All Kayden did was turn around and smile at Blake. He mouthed some words which only Blake understood.
The meteor descended on the ground as it created waves of heat as the ground trembled and mud came like a tsunami toward Noah and company as Noah's figure disappeared in front of Blake and waves of mud and fire covered the area where Noah was previously standing with a smile.
