"So this is the story behind why the continent of Anfang is called the land of the faithless."

Nira nodded before adding further.

"That's right.

The Anfang Alliance started hating the divine faiths of that time because of their complete lack of interest. This was despite the fact that divine faiths were responsible for Anfang's precarious condition in the first place.

The Anfang Alliance had decided that it would get rid of all the divine faiths once it settled matters with the foreign invaders. And eventually, it did.

Later down the line, a major culling took place and various faiths disappeared from this world. Anfang became known as the land of the faithless because of the alliance's hardline stand against the gods."

The more Eren learned about Anfang's history, the more intrigued he got. He felt like picking Nira's brain for all the information it contained regarding the world's lost history.

"What about the invaders? What were they? How powerful were they? Did the denizens of this world take care of them easily after the alliance was formed?"

Eren was reminded of the skeletons of the giants he had seen at Eliza's place. They had given him goosebumps at that time just by standing near them. Eliza had also confirmed that some of them were entities beyond S-Rank. So he wanted to know how the alliance handled such existences at that time.

Nira Nightshade felt a bit irritated by Eren's questions. At this point, she just wanted to get Eren's Spirit Beast for herself and kick him out of her abode. However, she thought of the prize that she was about to receive for wasting her time on a mere C-ranker. The Sage archer decided to put up with Eren's request after giving it a thought.

"Those invaders… they were too powerful to be taken care of that easily. At least one type among them.

The invaders did not have a single origin. You need to first understand the worlds the invaders belong to before you make any assumptions about them.

As I said, the world of Anfang was not as isolated as it is now. It had teleportation channels open to other worlds that were nearer to it."

Nira ignored Eren's surprised face and carried on.

"It's not like the denizens of otherworlds hadn't appeared on the land of Anfang before the God Vulcan's intervention. We call them invaders because they forced their way here and plundered for resources while searching for God Sparks.

The very first bunch of invaders that appeared on the land of Anfang intending to rob the potential God Sparks were called the children of Echidna. They came here from their own continent known as the continent of Echidna.

These invaders are commonly referred to today as monsters. You know... goblins, Kobolds, and the like. These children of Echidna were individually on the same level as the denizens of Anfang. However, they were huge in numbers and they knew how to battle in groups.

The children of Echidna were a huge headache for the denizens of Anfang. Still, things were manageable until the invaders were confined to the children of Echidna."

Eren was reminded of his time spent inside the Oni dungeon when Nira started speaking about the continent of Echidna. He knew a lot about them because of his time spent with monsters.

"Who were the other bunch of invaders?"

Eren asked impatiently, wanting to know about the giants. Their skeletons served as trophies for the old hag. He reckoned they were a strong force among all the invaders.

Nira scrunched her nose in annoyance before answering Eren's questions step by step.

"The second group of invaders belonged to the world known as Labh Salem or simply Salem. The denizens of this world were demons and witches. This world also had various half-blood clans prospering within it.

In fact, most of the prominent half-blood clans that were present in the land of Anfang came from this world before settling here.

There were various covens of witches also active on the land of Anfang which had their origins based in Labh Salem. In short, this world was built on the foundation of demonic practices. And it tried to spread its influence on other worlds besides it by sending its denizens outside.

Due to the crisis caused by the God Vulcan, relations between the original inhabitants of the Anfang and these settlers deteriorated. That's why the settlers from Salem who had come to Anfang before Vulcan's fuck-up had to prove their allegiance to the world of Anfang by joining the Anfang Alliance."

'Wait a minute… Labh Salem… Coven of witches… Witch of the Enderflame… was Eliza's clan originally from Labh Salem?'

Eren felt like a lot of puzzles were falling into place as Nira Nightshade was providing him with crucial information. Still, this wasn't the world where the giants would have come from. Eren's eyes pestered Nira for more information.

"Tch. You are persistent."

Nira looked at Eren and sighed before speaking further.

"The third world was Tel Quasser– better known as the land of the fey. The elves, dwarfs, mini giants, and other sentient races we see on the land of Anfang have their roots in this world.

Out of all the invaders that Anfang faced, the denizens of Tel Quasser caused the least amount of harm. They didn't indulge in plundering. And they walked away as soon as they found out that the fragments of the World Will's consciousness were not up to the mark.

They even helped the Anfang Alliance in the shadows so that we could fight their battle and cause major damage to a common enemy.

This is the reason why the Anfang Alliance accommodated the presence of settlers from Tel Quasser post-war. The elves, dwarfs, and the rest stayed here and made Anfang their home. They joined the Anfang Alliance and fought along with the original denizens of this world.

The denizens of Tel Quasser found it easy to support the original denizens of Anfang in their cause. This was because they hated a particular batch of invaders the most. Which brings us to the fourth world.

These invaders appeared on the continent of Anfang for the first time and caused major incidents. They hadn't visited Anfang prior to Vulcan's intervention.

Each member from this group of invaders killed thousands of rankers in a single move. Referred to as the walking calamities, their very first appearance became a major reason for the Anfang Alliance's formation.

These invaders came from Allansia– the world of giants.

The world of titans."
