Rise Of The Dragon Emperor

The envoy from the temple were left scurrying by Leif's ingenious ploy. However , the matter of anger for the temple was not over Roygar being killed as much as it was for Augustus denouncing the clan name.

The phoenix clan members prided themselves on being the descendants of the ancient phoenix , having the power to wield true fire and worshipped the fire god Agni. However , that pride was trampled by Augustus as he let go of the phoenix name.

The royal family was the most influential and respected family in the country , and them denouncing the name gave a heavy hit to the phoenix clan , who could no longer boast about the king being one of their own.

But what rights did the temple have to decide wether Augustus wanted to keep the clan name or start his own. It was a personal decision and the temple could not interfere in that matter on moral grounds , which is why their frustration was soo high.

In Everlon everyone was born with an elemental affinity , and the journey of a individual in terms of power levels was divided into level 1-200.

At birth an individual would be level 1 , and throughout infancy and toddler life , their levels would naturally increase from 1-5.

When a toddler , usually at age 4-5 hits level 5 , is when their real power journey starts , as one needs to train and increase strength through physical excercise to progress any further from level 5.

Individuals between level 5-40 are called 'layman '

individuals between level 40-60 are called 'private'

individuals between 60-100 are called ' Experts'

Level 100 was the differentiator between human realms and demigod realms , as the difficulty to break beyond level 100 was significantly high , and those who could break beyond this level were the truly talented ones.

Once someone steps beyond level 100 , their lifespans would increase dramatically , as living for 300 years in good health was not impossible. While every level up granted a few years of life after levelling upto 101.

people between level 100-140 were called ' Transcendents' . These were usually people having a huge influence over a kingdom , like generals or kings hence sometimes it was also called the ' King ' realm.

At level 140 , there was a qualitative change in the body , as the saturation of world mana occurs in a person's body maxing out one's superhuman potential.

Everything from level 140-160 was the inhuman levels , called the ' Emperor ' levels , it was a realm for people born to leave an impression in history. Extremely talented , and extremely lucky throughout their lives , the chosen sons of Providence were the only people who could reach this realm. Living for upto two thousand years , they were monsters that could wipe entire cities on whim.

From 160-180 was the legendary realm , only legends were heard of humans in these realms. Stories of how a sneeze of such men could cause a hurricane wiping entire forests. How terrifyingly strong these people were , noone had an exact idea.

Finally it was the divine stage from level 180+ , the stage where one could transform their very blood to the golden blood of god's and become gods in the process. Immortal and a sovereign powerhouse , not staying in the mortal realm.

The appropriate respect had to be given to an individual depending on their power level when being addressed . It was a part of the culture of Everlon . A man had to be addressed as 'Private' John or ' Expert' John or ' Layman' John , depending on the level he was at. Otherwise it was offensive to an individual.

Power ruled supreme in this world and everything depended on one's merits and personal powers to obtain. Women could be obtained with power , money could be obtained with power and soo could fame.

There was no inherent concepts of good or evil in this world , as there was only might is right. The only reason why there were lawful sects and lawful societies and cities , is because humans needed them to finally sleep with a peace of mind.

A sense of security in buisness , a sense of safety on the roads and a duty towards the nation were all things that a nation needed from individuals . It was not necessarily the best route for the individuals , however they could definitely go to sleep in peace in a lawful society.

The nation of Avalon ruled by Alexander was one such lawful society . Whereas , the neighbouring country of nomad tribes called Nothern Wastelands was an unlawful society.

There were no laws in the unlawful society and hence no punishment for crime. Therefore one's life and death depended on their own strength and luck.

One should not steal from someone they could not take on , and not curb someone to the point that they could die while executing their revenge. However there was branding of ' Evil ' on unlawful societies or ' Good ' on lawful ones.

There was no ' Evil ' demon clan and ' good ' angel clan. Everyone was seen under the same overall light and even the prejudice against races were mostly built on history between the tribes and not general consensus.

In such a world , Avalon's Alexander was a level 136 dual short sword wielder. A king level entity who had yet not peaked in his ranking life. Still growing by the day !

It is for this reason that a war with Alexander was not something that the temple wished to undertake, and why they did not act rowdy, simply because they could not afford to ! , Hence having no real options and no way to declare an open rebellion , they did what every weak and spineless group would do.

They started to scheme secretly....
