Hu Zhao together with Dian Long and Alex are Hanging out together in Wadya city. After they went and rested a little inside the mansion, they decided and go see how the city looks and then perhaps find something interesting.
Alex: "Well, of course, you would feel more changes. Perhaps because It's been over a hundred years since the end of the 4th era and the difference between the 4th era and the 5th era is very different".
Dian Long: "4th era? 5th era? What are you talking about? I thought that people still used the Dragon calendar. Did something happen or what?".
Alex raised his eyebrow and looked at Dian Long like he's looking at an idiot. He then turned at Hu Zhao and asked him again, "You disappeared two hundred years ago, right? Shouldn't you have explained the calender to him while you stayed on the flying island"?
Hu Zhao who looked at one of the stalls who sold grille meat heard Alex question and then turned as he scratched his head and said with a little embarra.s.sment, "Well, I also didn't know much. In fact, I only knew that I was born in the year 2000 of the great King Shan Xing and didn't really know about the 4th era".
Alex who heard that also felt that he was talking with a big idiot. During this era, finding someone who doesn't know the day and year of the present time is almost impossible unless he lives inside a mountain.
Even the mortals who only live for a maximum of a hundred years also know which year and era it is. Alex just sighed and answered Dian Long, "You see, I don't know what is The Dragon calendar you're talking about but I'm sure that I never heard of any place that still uses it".
Dian Long looked really shocked as he heard what Alex was saying. He then started regaining his calm and asked about the so-called 4th and 5th era.
Alex: "Sigh, what a drag. Well, since I don't have anything then I will explain it to you and that tiger too but first..."
Alex looked behind Dian Long and Dian Long who noticed that turned and looked at Hu Zhao who was standing in front of a meat stall and drooling over the delicious meat in front of him.
Alex: "Let's buy meat for him first. He's attracting attention to us both with his looks and that att.i.tude of his towards food".
Dian Long also noticed how people were looking at him and Hu Zhao like they were looking at exotic creatures.
________________________________
Baycoast island is one of the great four big islands of Lefia Archipelago. The area of the island is as big as New Zealand north island from Earth.
It has five main cities and many towns scattered between the cities. It also has one volcanic mountain at the center of the island. The volcano is considered extinct since it been a thousand years since it erupted. The five main cities are respectively Wadya city at the east of the island, Windsea city at the west, Northpond city at the north, Cliffhaven city in the northeast, and finally Waterlyn city at the northwest.
The south of the island wasn't developed that much since its also a giant magic beasts forest. People built border towns there for adventurers and mercenaries when they go hunt magic beasts there.
Each one of the five cities is led by a city lord who's also a count rank n.o.ble. Wadya city is considered as the biggest and most developed city on the island since it has a strategic place where it links the island with the west coast of the continent.
Wadya city is divided into three main districts. The first district is the west district which is divided also into two big areas. The first area is at the northwest, called the higher garden which houses the n.o.bles under the count and also the city officers.
The second area is called the market area in the southwest. It has all kinds of businesses and stalls. Most of these businesses are related to the n.o.bles and represent their main economy.
The east district, on the other hand, is divided into three areas. The first area is the lowe garden in the northeast and represents the residential of commoners and merchants.
The second area is in the east and is called the harbor area. It's the area where traveling and fis.h.i.+ng s.h.i.+ps are docked and also the gate of the city towards the sea.
The final area is the bazaar area. This area is also a market area but different from the organized market area of n.o.bles, this area is full of outlaws and bad people who use this area as meeting for the underworld organizations.
Even some n.o.bles hire gangs from that area so that they can do their bidding. The count of Wadya city tried to destroy that place many times but it kept returning like a tumor so the only thing that he could do is to restrain it and not make it grow.
The final district is the inner district where the city lord lives together with the HQ of the adventurer guild and other guilds like the blacksmiths guild and Alchemists guild.
After the three guys bought enough food, they went towards the Alchemist guild since Alex wanted to take something from there and while they were walking there, Alex was explaining to them more about each era and its meaning respectively.
Alex: "You see, It's said that after a great war between the races that almost destroyed the western continent, everything got destroyed and even the 5 empires almost exhausted all their armies and powerful people in this war. Cities and great knowledge were lost because of this war.
The war was so great that some mages said that if that war didn't happen and some civilizations hadn't been destroyed, the continent would prosper more".
Hu Zhao who heard that became more interested in this war and wanted to know even more. Dian Long, on the other hand, became a little depressed as he heard about it. It seemed like he remembered something sad the more Alex talked about it.
Alex who didn't notice Dian Long expression continued to talk about it, "Everyone at that time thought that the war would never end but it's at that time that a great man appeared. that man was an Elf mage from the Tullaris Empire".
"This man was so great that he was able to end the war that lasted for thousands of years in just five years. No one really knows what really happened since it has been so long but it was thanks to this great man that the warring states era ended".
Dian Long, who heard that looked puzzled and then asked Alex, "Are there no records explaining how the war ended or some books that perhaps recount the story of the war?"
Alex: "Not really. Even the current information I know was published during the first year of the 5th era by the Tullaris empire. Before that, no one really knew what happened".
Hu Zhao nodded and added, "Yeah. Before I went into hiding, I lived half my life in the Roshtar kingdom and I've never heard about this story".
Dian Long started thinking about and then told Alex to continue the story. Alex nodded and continued, "After the Mage officially ended the war, He married the daughter of the Tullaris empire and became the new emperor after the death of the previous one.
Alex: "It was at that time that the people of his era gave him the name, The creator of the first era, Emperor Antonius Ilnatar. The people call his era as the Silver era because of his silver magic".
Both Dian Long and Hu Zhao became surprised about this information. There weren't many people who could really leave a mark in history and yet the man known as Antonius was able to not only live as a great emperor but also leave a Huge legacy of an era.
Hu Zhao, who heard about all of this became more interested and asked Alex again, "This is just the first era right? How did it last? and what about the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th eras?".
Just when Alex was about to continue talking about the origin of history, the three guys found themselves in front of a huge red and white building. You could see also a big sign above the door of the building that showed a red cauldron with golden dragon carved on it.
Alex: "I will tell you more after I bring a thing from the Alchemists Guild. For now, just enter with me and don't talk that much. I don't want you to bring me problems".
Hu Zhao who was eating the meat said with total confidence, "Even if something happens, I don't think that anyone will be able to really hurt us while I'm here".
Alex sighed and said, "What a drag. I really shouldn't have brought you with me".
