After disappearing from the forest near the Riplanica Higher Institution, Elena appeared in a dark place. That place was also filled with some kind of malevolent presence. If a good aligned demigod entered this place without any special kind of protection then they would easily be influenced by the malevolent presence of this place and would be corrupted.
In this scary place Elena saw a hazy person. She sometimes took the form of a mature lady and sometimes the form of a little girl. This being respectfully addressed Elena -
"Welcome to my little realm, exalted one. It will be our first time meeting each other. I'm Sophianiya, the goddess of Malevolent Corruption. I do apologise for the bad atmosphere this place has but I'm unable to change anything because of my weakness. Please forgive me for that."
"I don't mind it at all. It's not like this atmosphere affects me or anything. And I know about your situation. Your work is commendable and worthy of praise."
"Your kind words are wasted on me, great one. And do allow me to apologise to you once again for another matter. I understand that the setup that my dungeon had was very evil and you would be displeased by it. I'm willing to accept any punishment but please do not completely destroy all the dungeons connected to the same origins."
"Hahaha, who do you think I am? I'm not some kind of justice loving hero. I know very well that a world cannot exist without its dark side. It is essential. I obviously can't blame you for doing a good job, now can I? Even tho I hate children dying for worthless causes.
I know this is reality. There are millions of worlds in this universe. Even with my insane powers, it is impossible to save every single children. Even if I can do that after I grow a bit stronger, it would still just destroy the balance. But whenever I get a chance to save even a single child, I will save him. I will not go out of my way to save them but if I accidentally come across them then I will do my best to save them. That's all. So I'm not even a least bit angry with you. I came to meet you only because I wanted to talk with you a little bit."
Then Elena snapped her fingers and a beautiful table and two chairs appeared suddenly. On the tables, everything one needed for a tea party was present.
"Today I'm going to let you taste some phenomenal tea created by none other than your superior, Noier. By the way, you should call me Elena or big sister Elena from now on. And I will call you Sophia. Okay?"
Sophia was so bewildered that she could not even speak. But then she mastered up a lot of determination and asked Elena -
"Yes, Elena-sama. By your words, can I be so brave to assume that you are willing to accept me as a friend of yours just like you accept several of my colleagues."
"Duh, yes dummy. Nice to meet you, Sophia. I'm Elena. Let's become good friends. I hope you have no problem with it, right?"
Sophia replied with a lot of emotions -
"No, I don't. I gratefully accept your kind proposal. Thank you very much for having me as a friend, Elena-sama."
...
More than 7,000 years ago before Elena's appearance in this world of RASHTROYNI there existed a large nation called the Xiovani Empire. This nation had made immense improvement in the field of Magitech and they were one of the strongest nations of that era.
The national goddess of this nation was , the high goddess of Malevolent Corruption, Sophianiya. She was an evil orientated goddess so most of her followers were also mostly evil in nature. The same was true for the Xiovani Empire. After a successful experiment they were able to invent a method to create high performance golems and puppets with relatively low cost. And that invention helped the greed of their heart to grow and this mighty empire started to have the ambition of conquering a whole continent.
They had almost unlimited numbers of golems to fuel the size of their army. Every one of the golems were stronger than a normal human soldier and the special golems and puppets were also stronger than most high rankers. But, the magitech technologies were not their only Trump Card. The Xiovani Empire also had several strong individuals with the blessing of the goddess. So they were also quite strong themselves. All these factors came together to make the empire almost unbeatable by any single nation.
So, they became very successful in the initial period. The empire was able to conquer almost half of the continent in a very short span of time. But soon the other neighbouring nations banded together to resist them. One of the nations had good relationships with a nation from the Vladimarok continent ruled by the vampires. After the vampires participated in the war, finally the Xiovani Kingdom lost their advantage. Soon even the countries that were far away from the Xiovani Empire's border also joined the conflict to mostly hunt for some benefits.
In this situation, the Xiovani Empire was in critical condition. Even with their superior technologies and golems they were still unable to resist against so many countries at the same time. Their defeat was only a matter of time. So, after losing the hope of the continent's conquest, the emperor of the Xiovani Empire decided to become the last empire.
The citizens of the empire were quite prideful and were unwilling to hand over the victory to the alliance. And most importantly, all the netizens of the Xiovani Empire had insane unity among them which was very, very rare. So when their defeat became a sure fact, all the citizens prayed to their guardian goddess and asked for her blessings.
Nothing was free in this world and the same was true for the empire. So more than 1 million humans of the empire sacrificed themselves in order to call upon their beloved goddess. The goddess was able to gather all the wishes from the sacrificed individuals and gave it a material form. All the wishes materialized to create three items, and all of them were incredibly powerful.
One of the items was an altar with the power to create five S rank personnel by sacrificing five young talents. It was called the altar of fulfillment as it fulfilled their wish to have a strong last stand.
The second item was a black bell. Whenever the bell rang all the enemies would become weaker and the allies would become stronger. But the person who would be ranging the bell would lose his lifespan every second. This item was called the bell of salvation.
And the last item was a black ball with red ruinic patterns on it. This was a one time use item and could create a large explosion on use. This item was called The Last Hope by the netizens of the Xiovani Empire.
After their rituals were completed, the empire launched an all out offence on their enemies. They used all the golems that they had in their inventory and attacked the nations with more than 20 million golems. This counter attack almost destroyed 3 countries and severely damaged 18 more.
After this incident all the countries became enraged and they also launched an all out offence.
When they reached the capital city of the empire with the intention of completely destroying it, suddenly they were faced against five extra S rankers. Not only that but the sound of a bell rang throughout the battlefield making the soldiers from the Xiovani Empire to be boosted and their enemies to get weaker.
But still with their numbers advantage, the alliance was able to kill the five S rankers after paying some huge price and all the citizens of the capital were also killed as everyone of them were soldiers. But when the victorious alliance reached the throne room to abduct the emperor and his family, they saw the emperor making out shamelessly on the throne with his empresses. All the other royal family members were doing the same. The throne room had turned into a large hall to hold orgies.
But as soon as the alliance reached the throne all the people present looked at the and smiled mockingly and then the emperor shouted -
"Glory to Xiovani Empire. Glory to the great Goddess."
Every member present repeated the same sentence and then the empire activated the small ball like item "The Last Hope". Everyone in the continent saw a large red flash and a whole capital city disappeared alongside a large nation. But they took down more than 25 million soldiers from various different countries alongside them.
After that the goddess took action to fulfill the very last desire of the empire itself that had been very loyal toward her. She knew that this country would be destroyed. To maintain the balance of the continent one super strong nation was not desirable. But still she was a biased goddess. So she created 5 dungeons and put them in 5 different continents to preserve the memories of this forgotten great empire.
And that was how these dungeons came into existence.
