********************************************
3 weeks have passed since that day, lot of things have happened. Lots of things have changed in my life. Right now I’m moving through a deep forest east of Zuma, known as Akan Forrest. Miss Aby & her team took me under their wing, I was to follow them to their destination & then they will see what to do next. Frankly I was a little surprised when they told me to join them or rather Javel picked me up & ordered me to do so. Let me tell you, up-close he’s very scary...so I joined their expedition. Ever since that day Miss Aby would nag me & hit me on my head for no reason what so ever. I think that being pretty gives her some kind of right to hit me...*smack*...what??
Aby: “Come with me, boy.”
Me: “Why? Where?” *smack*
Aby: “Don’t ask unnecessary questions & quietly follow me.”
Me (rubbing my left hand on my head): “Yes Miss Aby...”
Lot of things happened after Elder died. I was bombarded with questions like “What were you thinking?” “From where did you get that weapon?” “How did you move so fast?” “What are you?” “What Rank are you?”....I mean so many questions...my head was spinning.
Finally getting cleaned from all that blood, I felt quite nice or peace whichever sounds good. I saw my reflection on the mirror. I was at a loss...I look completely different from any Zumas I have seen or met. I have a red slit pupil on white eyes, two short horns with black tip, light red body complexion with black streaks on my shoulder. I was also close to 5’8-9 ft tall. What is this appearance? Only one way to find out “Status”.

After cleaning up, I went to the Council hall to listen to the will Elder left me...of course my new guardians came with me as well...they said that they were just going to talk with Councilwoman Je’Lec about my situation but I know better...they want to know what how much fortune did Elder left me with... *smack* ahhh...
Me: “What?”
Aby: “You were thinking something bad about us...weren’t you??” small grin forming in the corner of her slender lips.
Me: “No...No...Absolutely not...how could I!?”I smiled innocently at her.
Aby: “Remember Boy...you are still inexperienced...everything you think or do will be known to us instantly...be careful...this forest is pretty dense...” her grin got mixed with her sharp eyes turning into one hell of a scary face.
Me: “Yes...I understand...Miss Aby.” looking down towards the earth.
Aby: “Now hurry up; we don’t have a lot of time.”
Upon reaching the Council hall, I met the Councilwoman, talked to her for a little bit. She was quiet shocked to see me...well everyone was so no big deal. Then handed me a paper & told me to sign it. It was Elder’s will. After reading & signing it she handed me a small triangular crystal, black in colour. She told me to drop some blood on a part of the crystal. I did what she told me, a screen came appeared.
ENTER THE DOCUMENT CODE:

The King is Back
Life in the forest is all that the unnamed boy has known for all his life. After being abandoned by his parents years ago, his only salvation is the martial art and books that his father left him. One day, after encountering an unforeseen incident, the boy learns of his true lineage in a secret kingdom which is more technologically advanced than the rest of the world. Important Note: This is going to be an evolving story as I write. I am sure many of you will have plenty of criticisms for the earliest/earlier chapters and some of them are justified but I intend to continuously improve as I progress through the story. I hope you stick with me until then. Features: Technology Gap, Mechs in a Fantasy World, Conspiracies and Mysteries, Epic Adventures! Note: Mechs will be featured but it is NOT the main thing about this story. There will be extended periods of time of a more grounded story rather than mech warfare. But worry not, there will also be times of full-on glorious mech battles so keep reading! Cover art from an artwork done by Adam Burn. I do not own any of the copyrights of the image.
