CHAPTER 294 - Eldoria 1.
The world known as Eldoria is a large world, much larger than Gaia, with at least 10 times more surface area and water.
But as was to be expected, the world had an upper power limit, so of course, it's going to be larger.
The moment Gaia broke its limit, it grew as well, so yeah, Eldoria, being as vast as it was, wasn't uncalled for.
Yeah, there are exceptions in everything; there must be some world out there that is smaller than Gaia but stronger than Eldoria, but those are the few expectations that defy common sense.
Let's focus on Eldoria for now, as this is the world our MC, Alex Matthew, is residing in.
Eldoria, just like Gaia, consisted of both marine and terrestrial lifeforms, which means it had habitat for both as well.
The marine life form, unlike the terrestrial ones, gets to have a larger part of the planet since the planet is covered 60% with water.
The marine habitat is so big that there are places on the planet where even the marine races haven't been.
The undiscovered area of the seas.

The land, on the other hand, is completely uncovered.
Not a single place is off the map.
Yes, there are places that are restricted for anyone to enter, and there are areas that are considered dangerous, but they are discovered.
All of this is because the land is densely populated, with many races living in every corner of the world.
The world is peaceful, at least on the outside; after all, the four guardian beasts are there to stop major wars.
Oh, not four, actually; the number had turned into three long ago.
What are the guardian beasts?
Well, they are the four mythical beasts that protect 60% of the terrestrial region from the other 40%, which is the place where the demons live.
The four guardian beasts are the majestic mythical dragon, the ferocious white tiger, the calm and unmoving black tortoise, and the graceful and gentle Pheonix.
These four are supposed to be the ones protecting all of the lifeforms on the planet from the demons.
The demons were not weak, though; they had four demon generals to match the four beasts, but just like the four or now three guardian beasts, they never stepped into the battle.
All of them knew one thing: the moment they stepped in, the world would turn into an apocalyptic world.
But all of that is now changing….
A demon lord was being crowned.
A being with an unknown origin was taking the power to control the forces of the demon realm into their own hands.
No one knew what that being would want, and no one knew what they would do.
Everyone in the world just waited for the ceremony to be streamed live on broadcast with bated breaths.
For the people in the demon realm, it was news that called for celebration, and the demons were curious about their new lord.
Till now, the demon empire was ruled by the council of the four generals, so many expected some chaos as well.
But what they didn't know was that their new demon king had already defeated the four generals they respected so much.
Well, he didn't actually defeat them, but he did force them into a corner, and even though he had to burn a thousand years of his lifespan, he did become strong enough for the demon generals to hesitate to get close to him.
Anyway, back to the topic about the world.
The world of Eldoria consisted of six empires on land and 2 empires at sea.
The six empires on the land were known as the following:
Demon Empire: Maleficaris.
Dragon Empire: Drakonis.
White Tiger Empire: Ferox.
Black Turtle Empire: Melanochelys.
Phoenix Empire: Phoenixia.
Human Empire: Solaria.
'The demon empire is the strongest empire.'
Everyone knows that fact, or at least that's what it seemed like.
No one actually knew if it was the truth.
Everyone just knew that, just like the four guardian beasts, there were four very staring individuals in the demon empire—individuals so strong that just their presence alone could shift the tide of wars.
So, because of those four beings, the demon empire was ranked one of the empires.
Then there was the dragon empire.
The sole empire, which had every kind of species from all around the world, was Dracaris.
Yes, there were almost every species residing in that empire, but not without a purpose.
The dragon empire was an empire made by the dragons for the dragons.
Any other species there were either for entertainment purposes or for breeding purposes.
Dragons were a race with a very high libido, so all they did was breed and create offspring.
But just like demons, they valued bloodline purity a lot, so the ones with power were the ones with the highest purity of the bloodline.
At the start, the dragons were satisfied with inbreeding, but after one dragon gave birth to a child of mixed breed, the curiosity of other dragons got piqued.
Slowly, as the years went by, the dragon picked up different kinds of males and females from all over the world and started breeding with them.
By now, the whole empire was filled with hybrids of dragon and some other race.
Many of those hybrids were way stronger than any normal dragon, while some were way too smart.
But these results just motivated the dragons to go on with their techniques.
Even now, if a citizen of this world were to see a dragon flying above their houses, they would hide not out of fear of death but because they might turn into a breeding tool for the dragons.
Yes, the dragons were unrestrained and unreasonable, but that was because they had the power to be arrogant.
They were the strongest race on the planet, so of course, they would treat other beings as nothing but insects.
Yet, no matter how strong and unreasonable they were, they still lagged behind the demon empire in power ranking (officially), making them the second-ranked empire.
The third one was the white tiger empire, Ferox.
As the name suggests, they are filled with a group of wild, battle hungry beasts.
The white tiger empire comprises the Demi races.
Be it Necorus, Warewolves, or the Leontaroi, every wild race lived in this empire.
The beings in this empire valued strength; if you are strong enough, then you can get anything.
This was something they had in common with the demon empire, but other than that, they were a pretty simple group of beings.
But the thing that stood out most about them was the fact that they were always united.
This was the reason why they were ranked third on the list of empires.
If not for the dragon having an innate advantage of mana and strength, then the Empire of Ferox would've been the one to rank second.
But alas, it is what it is.
However, after the Empire of Ferox, it is a very unique empire.
One that always wants to maintain the peace of the world—Melanochelys.
