"500 years ago…"

"Feeling devastated and betrayed, I fled from the royal palace with my few surviving protectors after our failed rebellion".

"Since Roland already became King, things were hard for us".

"Roland's assassins led by Shanks hunted us down like game".

"Despite trying our best to survive while hiding in the woods, we were simply too outnumbered and outmatched".

"Every defeat fueled my hatred for my father and my brother, every death birthed a burning desire in my heart to burn all my enemies to ashes, I vowed to overthrow them if not in this lifetime but in another lifetime".

"The throne was supposed to be my birthright".

"Roland was never supposed to ascend it!" As he narrated this, Alexander's aura briefly flared in emotion but he did not stop as he continued.

"Despite my zeal and motivation, strength still prevailed, we were only able to last 2 years before we were completely wiped out".

"Shanks' subordinate drove a spike through my heart".

"I saw the world fade before me…"

"I witnessed my life slowly fade out of me…"

"With my resentment burning fiercely even in death, I saw my enemies come closer to my head in a bid to cut off my head and leave to celebrate the victory with it. Despite my unwillingness, I feared this was my end but…" 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

"This was when they came…"

"I still feel the sensation today as the heat of the spaceship's thrusters heated my flesh and blood, the sensation as gravity pressed me to the ground".

"I can never forget the scene when he jumped down, a single Grade C Superhuman, far more in control of his strength than anyone else I've ever seen as he singlehandedly slaughtered everyone of Shanks' subordinates that came".

"I can still feel his gaze looking down on me like my guardian angel…"

"I didn't see what happened next, I was frozen into a cube before being taken up into the spaceship. When I woke up, it was already a week".

"I learned from him that everything was already taken care of. They fabricated the scene to make it look like after a great battle, I died, Roland and his warriors were still celebrating my death".

"I was exposed to a virtual screen for the first time that day".

"From it, I saw the situation of my planet".

"I saw almost everything that happened, I saw Roland in his throne room drinking himself to stupor with his Generals with fine babes all over him".

"Hehe…, that day, I choked from anger".

"THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ME!" He roared.

"In my most vulnerable moment, he stood by me".

"He consoled me, he made me stand strong, then he gave me direction".

"He finally told me his name, General Aztog of the Nakish Navy".

"That day, I finally shed my identity as a frog stuck in a well".

"Hahaha…!" Alexander laughed with emotion. "Everyone on this Planet is a peasant, a Space Peasant, frogs stuck in a well who have no idea about how big the world is, how myriad and fantastic space is".

"That day, I shed my veil of ignorance".

Alexander looked at all the Grade C Superhumans that were already captured by his reveal, he looked at them disdainfully like peasants. "Planet Darvis is part of an Ancient Star System called the Roronoa Star System".

"After an artificial disaster caused by 2 warring planets, a Giant Radioactive pulse was induced in our Giant Star, 2 dozen planets imploded".

"4 planets survived but 3 became devoid of life".

"Only Planet Darvis retained life because of a special exotic mineral resource that our planet produces, Arcanite".

"The Naks are from the strongest Star System in our Cluster, they are 1 of the 2 ruling states in the Minerva Star System".

"After discovering our planet's uniqueness, General Aztog was sent on a mission to go claim the resources of our planet for the Nak State".

"On coming, they met resistance from the native races".

"The powerful and foolish Ancient Dragons and Giants refused to let go or even trade their mineral resource, then they attracted General Aztog's ire".

"The 1st Cataclysm was the result".

"They didn't all die, the most powerful beings of the Ancient races survived but they didn't learn their lesson to submit, rather they became more determined to oppose General Aztog's plan".

"The 2nd Cataclysm was supposed to wipe off all life away from Planet Darvis but others intervened, our ancestors".

"Our ancestors were war survivors from a great war in the stars. After losing, they fled through warp travel through a great distance before finally discovering our planet. Out of fuel already, they settled on our Planet".

"With their intervention, all life was not lost, General Aztog failed again due to the sacrifice of our ancestors, allowing us humans to start from scratch".

"The 3rd Cataclysm didn't happen yet because General Aztog had a change of heart and a change of plan, he decided to change his approach".

"Humans appearing changed the equation".

"Across our Andora Galaxy, humans were renowned for their diplomacy, General Aztog decided to approach a human and hence where I came into the equation. After saving me, I was exposed to Magic for the first time".

"General Aztog's subordinate, a Great Mage saved me through magic".

"After meeting General Aztog, all my motivation to become King evaporated. After knowing about the humongous outside world, knowing that Planet Darvis is just one tiny part of our Galaxy, how could I keep such vain motivation?"

"My eyes were opened; my horizons became broader".

"I started setting my eyes on much bigger things".

"I longed for knowledge, I wanted to learn everything about our Roronoa Star System and the Minerva Star System where the Naks came from".

"I wanted to know much more about the world, I no longer wanted to stay a frog stuck in a well, I wanted to become a Phoenix soaring into the skies".

"My wish was fulfilled, I learned".

"At what cost?" After keeping quiet since, Core Protector Shanks finally spoke. "Did you betray your humanity and sell off our Planet?"

Alexander looked at this warrior and simply chuckled.

"In 2 months, I broke my previous limits that were there previously due to lacking knowledge in our planet, I was able to learn Super Knowledge".

"I became an Elementalist!" Excitement leaked from this warrior's voice.

"Did you know how happy and contented I became? For a long time, I was bored of the politics and shenanigans of the royal family, I loved the simplemindedness of battle more, it was a shame I never awakened super energy".

"But with this, I got my greatest obsession".

"While learning more about our Galaxy, I trained under General Aztog. In 100 years, I broke all the previous records held by warriors in Planet Darvis and I became the fastest Superhuman to became a Grade C Elementalist at such speed".

"This was when General Aztog's real plan kickstarted".

"And unlike previous times, this time, I was at the helm of the plans".

Core Protector Shanks frowned. "What did you do?"

"Hehe". Alexander looked at him and smirked. "What you would have never had the guts to do, that is why they choose me".

"I took the responsibility of becoming the Governor of this Planet".
