2021-01-25 11:56:53Hello, this is for those who are interested in the Lore of Re; Hell Gate and the Geography of Astria’s(Hell Gate world).
******
Astria is the name of a titan, more precisely, the last Titan that still lives. Titans have many shapes and they are gifted with absolute strength and outstanding magical abilities.
Astria is a titan which took the shape of a world, not a planet of a star. This world, which has the same name as the titan, has four continents.
First, the Human continent, situated at the center of the other three and inhabited mostly by humans. Unlike the Forgotten Continent, the Human Continent is ruled by only one Empire but some say that the Holy Church is akin to another ruler, a dorming one…
Second, the Itas Continent, situated East of the Human continent and home to the Elves and, most importantly, the World Tree, a sacred tree that the Elven race worship and pay much care to.
The World Tree’s branches encompasses all of the Itas Continent and towers over the sky, casting a shadow on half of the continent. In addition to the elves, there are minor seclusive clans and sects South-East of the continent and unlike the people of Astria, they do not rely on Mana but on Qi to empower themselves and utilize heavenly techniques.
Third, the Demon Continent up North, housing the Imperial Demon Family and, of course, demons, which are the archenemy of the humans. The war between the two races has been ongoing for thousands of years and shows no signs of stopping.
The Demon Continent is the smallest of the four continents and is primarily composed of snowy mountain-ranges and very old ruins.
Last but not least, the Western Continent, a total wasteland in which the beastmen tribes live. Almost the entirety of the continent is nothing but a flat surface, its earth corrupted and dyed with the blood of millions of people. It is said that millenniums ago, a blood occurred there and turned the continent into what it is today, a godforsaken piece of land with harsh living conditions.
A great distance away from the four continents, isolated from everyone and everything else, is the Forgotten Continent. Bigger than all four other continents, this one is shrouded in mystery and sealed away by a sage to protect it and keep its secrets hidden.
Not much is known about the Forgotten Continent as, for the most past, it remains unexplored. Technically, it is not part of Astria… it is an extra that relies on the titan to supplement itself with Mana, Qi, and Nether Energy.
****
Black Mountain City: Situated North-East of the Forgotten Continent, it is one of the four main cities of the Noules Empire and, not long ago, it has fallen to the Blight Beasts, forcing countless people to migrate to Radiance City.
Radiance City: The closest and biggest human settlement to Black Mountain City, it is the main living quarters for the Holy Church, meaning that the Pope is always present, rendering the city lord, Marchioness Catherine unable to control it properly as there are thousands upon thousands of the church’s believers there.
Radiance City’s vicinity is relatively peaceful compared to Black Mountain City and it houses more players than any other city due to the abundance of dungeons around it.
All the dungeons were cleared by the Holy Knights, making it nigh impossible for them to erupt and very safe for adventurers and players to explore.
Imperial Capital, Noules: The capital of the Noules Empire and the biggest of the four cities. Protected by high walls fortified by magic and more than 500,000 soldiers, all under the King’s behest.
The Imperial Capital is East of Radiance City, in the Dragon’s Maw Canyon, to be exact.
NetherFrost City: Separated from Black Mountain City but a long snowy mountain range, NetherFrost city was built on top of an old dwarven conurbation. It is directly North of the Imperial Capital and its city lord is Viscount Frederic Contoix but many people say the true ruler is Silver Gicolt, the Commander of the Knight Squad of Noules.
*****
The world outside of Astria and vast and boundless but, it can be split into three immense zones, which, together, are called the multiverse.
The first one, which is where Astria is, is called the X-TR500 Universe, commonly known as the System Universe. Dominated by the game-like system, it houses system users and advanced robots that can even rival gods.
It is the biggest out of the three universes but not anyone can enter it and it forces restrictions on any welcomed visitors.
The second ‘zone’ is the Cloud Sea Universe, a place where Cultivators live and die. It is the most chaotic universe and often referred to as the Fool’s Tomb.
Third is the Heaven and Hell Universe, which, as the name suggests, literally has Heaven and Hell. Actually, it is divided into two parts, one for Demons and the other for Angels and spirits.
*****
Mana: One of many types of energy, superior to Qi in practicality and very abundant in Astria. With a pair of special eyes, one can see Mana, which takes the form of tiny blue particles that, when used properly, will merge together and transform into a specific attribute.
Qi has a green color and comes from the Earth, though not as strong as Mana, when harnessed in the correct manner, it can increase one’s body by an absurd amount, making one capable of flight.
Nether Energy: The most common energy in the Cloud Sea Universe, used by the cultivators to strengthen themselves and increase their Realms.

Re; Hell Gate Chapter 182 : Arul's Secret (2)
‘Let’s see…’Late at night, the same day Leiu eavesdropped on the two maids, he easily infiltrated Bulon’s manor. Although the rich farmer hired maids, his manor was poorly decorated and mostly empty. He did not have any guards and getting in without being noticed was like a walk in the park for the Dark Knight.Since Arul is dead, he is forced to investigate by himself and try to figure out the reason behind his death. The quest provided him with little info and it is up to him to gather clues.The first place sneaked into was Arul’s room, which was situated at the far Eastern end of the manor, strangely isolated from all the other rooms. It was a good twenty meters away from any other room and the door was locked by chains.Fortunately, the chains were not reinforced with magic so Leiu was able to cut them with his greatsword and enter the room. As the youth stepped into the room, which, surprisingly, was very dark yet, from his point of view, it was clear, allowing him to see every

Outside of Black Mountain City“The Red Moon hasn’t changed.”Vins remarked as he looked to the sky. “I thought you’ll come back once it is time.”“I didn’t want to come fetch you at the last second. Plus, it won’t be long before the Hell Gate appears.”Vins didn’t argue back, he solemnly nodded once. Although his relationship with Leiu was bad, there was no need to provoke him at any given opportunity.They were enemies, and the fact that Leiu actually came back to get him meant that, to some extent, his words had convinced him a bit, at least enough to let him come along.“In the meantime, we’re going after Void Rifts.

Leiu spent quite a long time in the Studying Room. Unfortunately, the available information about the Reverie Comos was lacking and unsatisfactory. It just told him what he already knew: The Reverie Cosmos was a separate plane of existence in Mundus, not unlike the Harrowing. It was accessible only to those with ‘high’ spiritual energy, which was simply not enough to go on.Although, even if Leiu knew how to enter it, he wouldn’t go there, at least not now.There were much more pressing matters than delivering Lost Witch to the Reverie Cosmos. The Hell Gate was about to open and he needed to be there when it did. Once he was done with his pondering, Leiu went to talk to Sumbus Darrar.“So?”The old man was in the ‘Living Room’, gobbling down the delicious feast without a care in the world.After wiping his oily lips, the Necromancer awkwardly laughed,“Her name is Emilia. She told me she doesn’t remember what happened… only that you killed her and then she woke up after we killed

Dark Knight: Cursed To Wander Alone
“It’s over…”The Elven Chevalier had a look of relief and fatigue on her face. She kept holding on her blade as she stared at Tenebris.Unlike her, he looked absolutely miserable. Whether it was his dirt-covered pale-face, his sweaty and greasy hair, his trembling and bloodied hands, or his shredded clothes.“Hold on. I’ll heal you.”With slow steps, she approached him, unaware that a tiny pit of flesh crawled on the ground and leapt at her arm.“Watch out!”Tenebris saw it first, but his warning came too late. Kusomi, panicking a bit, tried to the flesh but it dug into her skin and then went inside her body.Her body instantly flashed with a silver light, an attempt to use overwhelming energy to force out the worm-like flesh.“Ah…”Kusomi fell to her knees and let go of her estoc, her body convulsing and her mouth coughing blood. The light emitting from her body grew dim and then disappeared.As her body wobbled and then fell to the side, the elf- with all the strength she could mus

Chapter 556 Concept of Destruction
[User, there is an increasing fluctuation of energy from the g-]Eva’s voice turned into silence, but more surprising was the abrupt change of environment.Sumbus, Leiu, and Voido, were standing in an endlessly dark world, but the ‘Darkness’ was completely different from the norm. It wasn’t Primordial Darkness or simply an overabundance of Darkness energy. This was something else entirely.Before anyone could speak, innumerable lightning bolts pierced through the ‘darkness’, shattering like glass and revealing an empty space not unlike space itself.There were star wars that were far, far away, but most noticeably, the majority of them were caught one supernova after the other.Leiu and Sumbus felt immense dread as an overwhelming pressure assaulted them, locking them into that empty space. Leiu tried to use the Darkness to protect himself but, surprisingly, it wouldn’t come out. It seemed unresponsive and ineffective as if something was sealing it away.Sumbus fared even worse as h

“Huff… huff..”Leiu was gasping for air aboard the ship’s deck. Anne was hugging him, relieved that he made it out alive.Sumbus was also sitting down, his complexion paler than usual. Before returning to the surface, Leiu closed the Void Rift with the Primordial Darkness. He had less than 20% health remaining and his mind was still befuddled.“I’m… okay, Anne.”“Drink this.”She forced him to drink three Health Potions, which did help with the physical wounds.“Leiu.”The Mermaid Queen stood a couple of feet away.

Admittedly, she and Leiu weren’t the best friends, but they did help each other in the ‘past’.“We could’ve killed Him.”

Tenebris sat up and proceeded to wear his bloodied and dirty clothes back.‘I’ll be damned. You actually went through with it. I’m impressed, Tenebris.’While pretending as if he didn’t hear the voice, Tenebris looked to the side. Kusomi also properly sat up and stoically looked at him.“It hurt a bit. Other than that… it wasn’t anything special.”‘Hear that, dumbass? No chance you’re getting laid a second time.’After being pressed by the voice, Tenebris eventually relented and had sex with Kusomi. It wasn’t anything dramatic, and from beginning to end, it barely lasted an hour.Although he got to enjoy the soft body of a beautiful elf, Tenebris wasn’t that happy. He had hoped the two of them would ‘feel’ differently amidst the action and pleasure, but no such thing happened.The virgin elf was inexperienced, so he took the lead, but having sex like that didn’t really mean anything. At least not to him. He should have trusted his gut and refused, but feeble hope and lust persuaded hi

Chapter 553 The Mermaid Queen
With the help of the Dark Archmage’s spell, Leiu and Anne were able to dive underwater and breathe. The Void Incarnate, which wasn’t even a living creature, simply jumped down and transformed into somesort of a hideous hammerhead shark.Leiu really wanted to question it as it never said it could change its appearance, but now wasn’t the time.The four swam deeper and deeper until the Void Rifts were in sight. They let out ominous purple glows, all haphazardly scattered everywhere.Albeit not at full speed, Leiu was able to swiftly reach them and used Primordial Darkness to forcefully close them down. Oddly enough, no Voidspawn came out to attack him. Only Void Riftss were present, which, rather than fortunate, felt like a bad omen.Thus, as they kept descending closer and closer to the seafloor, Leiu got rid of any Void Riftss in the way. It was a tedious but not overly-taxing process.Eventually, however, they reached the two, aforementioned, big Void Riftss. They were massive, but

“When is the Hell Gate going to open?”After talking with Elena and the rest, Leiu left Black Mountain City altogether. He looked at his newest companion, the fearful Sumbus Darrar.Startled, the old Necromancer looked at the red moon hanging in the sky. Night has yet to fall, but the moon stuck out like a store thumb. It was still waxing, albeit at a very slow speed.“Two weeks, at most.”“And where’s the gate?”“I… I can only locate it when it is about to open.”As he saw the suspicious stare of the Dark Knight, Sumbus vigorously nodded his head while waving his hands around. “I swear, Dark Knight! I do not dare lie to you!”Seeing how the old man behaved, it was hard to think of him as the one from the legends. He was like an obedient dog, following Leiu and doing everything asked of him.In fact, he was sensible enough to notice Leiu’s relationship with Anne, so he treated the Vampire with the utmost politeness and respect.[User, a suggestion: Eliminate the Administrator in-]‘I
