Prologue 2: World history

    In history records, it was stated that a giant being descended upon earth


    The landscape, crushed. The town which housed thousands of people, trampled. The neigboring town, wiped out


    The sky shook, flocks of birds frantically fled for their lives. The ground cracked, swallowing up trees and houses. Rivers drained away, taking the aquatic life with it.


    Giant feet that easily flatten towns when it moves. Long arms that nonchalantly swept away mountains when they were swung. Six pair of huge wings that created a storm each time they flaps. The pair of crimson eyes shone from above, dyed the surrounding in a deep shade of bloody red


    Its whole body was covered with red scales, and a short horn protrude from its head


    And came along with it, were thousands of monsters, with all kind of shapes and sizes. But they all shares something in common, that is, the hatred for living being, and the insatiable destrudo


    The giant being. And it''s minions roamed the land for hundreds of years


    Unfortunate villages, towns, cities, and even kingdoms in their path can do nothing but wait to be destroyed, those who lived there could only run away before they were trampled


    But human was a strong race, in the face of extinction, they banded together, and they fought together. Soldiers, rations, weapons, means of transport, and resources were contributed from every countries for the hardest battle since the dawn of human history


    Rivers of blood, mountains of corpses, innumerable weapons and wartools littered the battlefield


    The battle went on and on for days, then weeks, then months


    After sacrificing most of the subjugation armies, they finally succeeded in vanquishing the detestable being


    They thought they''ve won the war, but reality was not so merciful


    The moment the giant being fell, an invisible shockwave spread throughout the world, each and every single monsters on site, and all over the world went on a rampage.


    It was as if the monsters were mourning the giant, they circled its corpse and created a dome from their own bodies. Big enough to overshadow the sun, the beehive tomb has been towering over the land ever since


    The rest of the monsters scattered all over the world, destroying anything and everything on their paths

    These girls, with their superpowers began to be born among humans, were called witches


    At first witches were misunderstood, feared and  condemned. Lead by the Christian churches witch hunt, they were hunted down and executed for being worshipper of the Devils


    It was a hellish world, even when facing exticntion, human still have the time to kill each other among themselves, and many innocent young girls were murdered


    Amidst the chaos, when all hope seems to be lost, the silver lining still exists. One man stopped it all. He who saw the benefit of magic to human, promulgated the benefit of witches


    Magic is something unexplainable with the science viewpoint


    Magic is not restricted by any scientific laws or principles


    Magic can even warps reality itself


    And with the emergence of the <Witches Management Organization> (WMO), the long and bloody witch hunt was stopped, and witches were recognized as protectors of humanity
