Chapter 3 - Chapter 3 : The Nations and the King returns

The news of a mortal surpassing the power of a god was not just a headline on global scale, but across the entire universe, shocking both mortals and immortals. Even Demon King Andhaka and Devil king Adi Armin were frightened by this news. The emperors of the five nations were alarmed and they all began focusing their resources on developing their defenses.

Each nation had their unique abilities and specialties, but two of the five nations were ruled by the Demon King Andhaka and the Devil King Idi Amin. Andakar, ruled by the Demon King, was associated with darkness, while the Devil King's nation was called Abomin, a name that evoked disgust and hatred. The third nation, Brahma, was ruled by the Brahmins, known for their abundance of magic mana and intelligence.The Kshatriya, known for their bravery, exceptional sword skills, and fighting abilities, governed the fourth nation Kshatriyains.The fifth nation, ruled by the late Mage King Arlott, was Vaishya. It was a nation without any restrictions where people from all nations could be found.

3 months passed since the incident, and the news of the surpasser was slowly fading from people's minds, as no sign of the surpasser had been found.The Royal mages of Vaishya convened a meeting to select a new king for their nation. During the ceremony, the younger brother of the previous mage king, Arlott, was chosen to ascend to the throne. However, the proceedings were interrupted when King Arlott, who was presumed dead, suddenly appeared. A Healer had found Arlott, who had been gravely injured and suffering from amnesia, and had nursed him back to health. When the Healer recognized a portrait of the missing king, he brought him back to the palace. The revelation stunned everyone, and the coronation of the new king was halted in favor of celebrating Arlott's return. The Healer was welcomed into the Royal family as a reward.

The palace summoned the world's finest healers to treat Arlott, whose injuries were so severe that they were difficult to witness. The scars and wounds on his body were reminiscent of a prolonged battle against an incredibly powerful foe. The treatment progressed slowly, but after a week, Arlott had fully recovered physically, although his memories had not returned. Despite his family's best efforts to help him remember by taking him to familiar places and introducing him to friends and relatives, his memories did not resurface until three weeks later, when he revealed the danger he had faced and appointed certain individuals as commanders. The person who had brought Arlott to the palace was appointed as his advisor and left-hand man. Arlott declared that the nation would focus on developing its land, and as such, the borders of Vaishya were closed, and no one was allowed to enter or exit. He made a rule that every family was to send a member to join the Royal army, and the nation focused on strengthening its border defenses.

After a week passed, news of the sudden deaths of half of the Royal family members spread, striking fear into the hearts of the nation. Only eight members, including Arlott, remained alive. Thousands of citizens gathered outside the palace, seeking answers. Arlott appeared before them with a pained expression and declared, "My dear citizens, even with the increased border defenses, my family members were still killed. I will avenge them and fight to protect this nation until my dying breath. Please stand with me and support our nation. I would be grateful." His words filled the people with a sense of strength and determination, motivating them to work even harder for the nation.
