In the direction Cronos looked at, Evan looked up and saw the cosmic stars in the crack of the rock wall.
In the changing aurora, a giant meteor whistled by and disappeared instantly…
“Rowena Ravenclaw’s power comes from the universe?” Evan was surprised. “The gift of the goddess of war, Morrigan?!”
“The gods, demons, and other magical creatures with powerful magic in your human eyes are not originally native creatures of the planet,” said Cronos, seeing Evan’s perplexity, “After the Titans fell, they found their way here from the universe through various means…”
“Wait a minute, are you saying that those magical creatures and even wizards are descendants of alien creatures?!” Evan asked hurriedly. “How is that possible? You just said that the Titans’ duty was to bestow life, you have created many beings.”
“I’m glad you know about this. Titans have not been forgotten by the world. Yes, at the beginning of the birth of this planet, we used rocks, magma, sea water, steel and air to create all kinds of creations, such as the Cyclops you’ve seen. These creations were called the First Generation. They had life, but they had no flesh and blood, and could not reproduce later generations.”
“The First Generation beings!” Evan remembered the Cyclops immersed in magma.
“Yes, the First Generation beings possessed immense power. They helped us fight the ancient gods from the void and maintain the balance of the planet,” said Cronos, shifting his gaze back to Evan. “After the fall of the Titans, these creatures, for some reason, gained flesh and blood in the long process of life. They gradually forgot their original mission and gradually evolved. Their descendants became the main source of life on this planet today…”
“Like the giants of Sicily!” said Evan, nodding his head, a little bit understanding what the other meant.
Giants were descendants of the Cyclops, and they had far more brute power than ordinary humans, but their power was far from that of the Cyclops, with flesh and blood that allowed them to have emotions, and at the same time they could be injured and die, unable to use magic, let alone immerse their bodies in magma to restore strength.
“The giants are one of them, as well as the goblins, the Centaurs, and the Merpeople you are familiar with … and even you humans!”
“Humans, too, evolved from Titans’ creations?” Evan asked.
“Yes, you are the more successful branch of evolution,” Cronos went on. “Don’t be surprised, and don’t doubt. In a broad sense, all humanoids on this planet are actually descendants of Titans’ creations, but their power doesn’t come entirely from us.”
“What do you mean?”
“I just said that in the final battle, the seal left by the Titans was incomplete. We expected that the first generation of creation would have flesh and blood, and gradually evolve. That was what we hoped for, to make this planet become more energetic. But because we worried that too much power would attract the attention of those in the void, we have not left the seeds of magic in the initial order. In our original design, you were supposed to gradually lose the ability to use magic during your evolution, just like how the giants cannot use the thunderous power of their ancestors, or how Centaurs cannot use the power of nature. “contemporary romance
“But wizards can use magic, as well as the powerful warlocks of ancient times, who had even stronger power,” said Evan.
“That was just an accident, an unexpected outcome. The magical power you have now comes not from Titans, but from the mysterious and ancient alien beings in the universe.” Cronos paused and said slowly, “Just like the ancient gods from the void, at the very beginning of the birth of the planet, there were many alien beings that came to the planet for various reasons. Most of them were very weak. They came from meteorites that fell accidentally. And they became the ancestors of various animals and mythical creatures we have today. But there were also powerful ones. Humans called them gods or demons in ancient times…”
Evan nodded. As Cronos said, Titans and evil gods were more primal and had more powers, such as lightning, time, death, nature, and the ability to control dreams. These were magic that wizards, and even ancient warlocks could not wield. The magical power they possessed came from other powerful alien creatures, those known as gods.
“In terms of human history, after the End War, this planet went through a period of darkness and primitiveness. Titans’ creations were evolving into all kinds of creatures, and the outsiders who came for various reasons were also evolving. The planet was becoming more and more lively,” said Cronos. “But as I said before, not all outsiders were weak and small creatures coming through meteorites. There were some powerful ones among them. You humans call them gods or demons, such as the ancient creatures that destroyed Ionia, and the gods who granted wizards their bloodline powers.”
“So, these are the origins of the gods?” Evan took a deep breath.
“That’s precisely why the last magical civilization was originally dominated by these powerful beings called gods and demons. Their offspring, born from the union with certain Titans’ creations, also began to possess some magical powers and quickly grew stronger, such as humans, house-elves, goblins, Fairies, and so on!” Cronos continued, “Among them, humans were the most exceptional. When the life-givers created the First Generation beings – your ancestors – you already possessed pure magical power, surpassing other creations in intelligence and adaptability. As long as the seeds of magical power were given, humanity would soon develop into the overlord of this planet.”
The Time-Turner, which glowed light blue, floated quietly in Cronos, and its dial marked the passage of time.
“In the middle to late period of the previous magical civilization, the powerful human spellcasters soon began to excavate the relics of the ancient times and slaughter the gods!” said Cronos softly. “They discovered the secret of the Titans and created all kinds of powerful magic to imprison gods and demons in special realms, harnessing their powers.”
And then there was the history that Evan was familiar with. One by one, the powerful gods had fallen, and the era of gods was over…
Evan thought for a while before continuing to ask, “Since those gods and demons are outsiders, why don’t they continue to come to the earth now? After the end of ancient times, the magical power and level of humans have gone backwards.”
“You must have seen that ancient creature in the ruins of Ionia, haven’t you?” Cronos did not answer, “I feel its power is breaking away from the cage of time and coming to this world.”
