Oz told his story started from when he first met Aegir at the cobblestone village, the story goes on for hours. After Oz tells them his story, the trio started to tell their own life stories.

All three of them didn’t know who their parents are as they only had the memories when they’re at the orphanage. But as they got bigger, the three of them felt a great bond between them, and they felt that there seems like there really is a connection on their blood.

Alfred and Sen felt the feeling the most, as both of them had the same blue hair, everyone will believe them as siblings. The duke said that all three of them had the blood of elves running through their veins.

The statement from the duke makes them felt more certain that the three of them are siblings, so the three of them started to address themselves as siblings. Different from the purple-haired Edreale who had a half-pointed ear, Alfred and Sen didn’t inherit the pointed ears, they only inherited their affinity of mana cultivation.

As their conversation goes on, the wagon arrived at their next stop, the closest city to the capital, Plumore. Together with the coachman, Oz and the trio rents a room at the most expensive inn in the city.

It’s already evening when they arrived at Plumore, after renting the room, Oz immediately bid his goodbye to the others and get to the bed as he had to go back to Tarot.

As Oz laid his body at the bed, he immediately sent his consciousness to the goblin [King] clone. When he opened his eyes, Aegir had already waiting for him while folding his arms and closing his eyes.

“You’ve come, Ren?” Asked Aegir.

“Yes, how’s the condition,” Asked Oz.

“All of your plans went smoothly, all of the people accepted the concept of economy you suggested, especially people who worked hard the most,” Said Aegir.

“Good, let’s start giving all of the races their own martial art, had all of the representatives of each race assembled, Aegir?” Instructed Oz.

“They’ve already waited for you at the training grounds,” Said Aegir.

There is a huge training ground at the Tarot kingdom now, Fedra’s the one who suggested to make it, it’s five kilometers wide, a lot of people trains there every day, but today, there are only a few people who are permitted to come to the training grounds to make easier for them to learn what Oz’s going to teach them.

When Oz arrived at the training ground, the strongest warriors of each race had already gathered. Oz smiled proudly when he saw his strongest warriors.

“Sorry for the wait, everyone. Now, let’s start the practice,” Said Oz with a smirk.

The martial techniques Oz taught them is divided into three types, the first type is the techniques of the royalties, to strengthen the powers of each kingdom royalties and ensure their safety, the second type is the techniques of the soldiers that will be the fighting style of the legion army, while the third is the techniques of the knights, this type of technique is an elegant and honorable fighting style.

The martial arts made for the goblins focuses on helping them to be nimble and swift, with the great stamina of goblins and the skilled hands of goblins, Oz taught them how to fight with both skills and wisdom. The goblins had a great affinity to be an all-type fighter, to be able to master all types of weapons and to could fight even while bare-handed.

For the orcs, Oz created the techniques that make it possible for them to utilize the full potential of their herculean power. Orcs had great power, but they lack the strategy of fighting, the weapon Oz taught them is Kodachi, Axes, double-axes, greatswords, and halberd wielding.

For the Lizardfolks, even though Oz didn’t have a tail, he could still manage to make a fighting technique that makes the lizardfolk’s could utilize their strong tails and strong body to the fullest. Oz only showed the techniques of spear-wielding to the lizardfolk as they had the most proficiency in using a spear.

In the centaur case, Oz taught them the way of cavalry, as all centaur is a natural-born cavalry. Oz taught them archery, swordsmanship, and spear-wielding. But they master it quickly as if all centaurs are born with the talent.

Elves are the most natural skilled fighter, all elves are a skilled fighter since they born. They could use swords, spears, and bows skillfully. But they don’t master the thing that they should suit the most. The path of an assassin, Oz taught the elves that should be nocturnal and is skilled in concealing their presences, the martial art of an assassin.

For the kobolds, all of them took the path of the sword, so Oz taught them the path of a samurai, the keys to be one with the sword, and the ultimate skill of swordsmanship. Oz taught all kinds of swords skills started from dual-wielding, greatsword-wielding, to even rapier-wielding.

Oz hesitates a bit when he about to show the martial art for the undead, but who would ever think that they managed to follow all of the things Oz’s showed just by looking once. Oz’s eyes lit up when he saw that the undead could follow his directions easily, making him teaching them a lot type of martial arts.

As there are only a few dwarves that currently existed at the Tarot, so Oz easily taught them how to move efficiently with their short and muscular body. The dwarves got taught the way of hammer-wielding and ax-wielding.

“I-I never thought that the king will be this knowledgable of martial arts, he makes me admires him more,” Said Fedra, awestruck.

“Me too, I should have asked him to train me sooner,” Said Brad the leader of the ‘Jack of All Trades’ Special force.

“It’s pleasing to see that we’re serving a mighty warrior,” Said Firenze, the leader of the centaurs.

“Indeed, I could see an endless potential at this empire in the future, we can’t let our ruler hopes down, let’s train our people diligently,” Said Talak, the leader of the lizardfolk.

“Yes, we need to show him that he’d done enough for us, we can’t let him to do all of the things for us, right?” Said Razor, the leader of the kobolds.

“That’s right,” Said Aegir as he gazes at Oz’s inspiring figure.

After training the executives for a couple of hours, Oz walks around to observe the growing empire’s state, the people had started to work far more diligently than before, it means that the economic system is working and giving a good impact to them.

The undead is roaming at every place as they helped at all of the building construction, they boost the work of constructing things greatly, making a ten days work of construction to be done in only one day.

The royal ‘Joker Legion’, ‘The order of Miracle’, and the ‘Jack of All Trades’ special troops had started to assemble. Oz gave each of them a different training course, the ‘Jack of All Trades’ training course focuses on increasing agility and for assassination, while the ‘Joker Legion’ training course focuses on increasing their battle strength, and lastly, ‘The order of Miracle’ training course not focuses at strength solely, but at both attitude and manner too, aiming to make the noblest knights existed.

Each race had also started to make its own military legion and knight orders. Oz also gave them their respective training courses that suitable for their race.

After strolling around a little, Oz came into Gurolf to give him a title.

“I wanted to give you this title when your tower is already built, but I think that I need to notify you first. Gurolf, you’ll be entitled as the royal magician of the Tarot empire! Will you accept that position?” Asked Oz with a gentle smile.

“Yes, your majesty. I’ll be honored…” Answered Gurolf with a bow.

The empire is still under a lot of constructions, the walls of each race kingdom are also still under construction. Thydal said that all of the constructions may be finished together with the finish of the royal castle.

“I can’t wait to see when all of the construction is done,” Mumbled Oz as he observes the scenery from the top of Aegir’s house.

“Ren! What’re you doing there?” Asked Geeta from downstairs.

“Nothing, just enjoying the scenery,” Said Oz as he gazes at the growing empire.

“Hm…” Geeta jumped and sits beside Oz.

“What are you doing?” Asked Oz.

“Joining you enjoy the scene at the wonderful night, am I not permitted?” Asked Geeta with a smile.

“Well, it’s not that I didn’t permit you…” Oz answered awkwardly.

Silence enveloped them as they gaze at the growing empire and the sky that filled with a lot of stars.

“You, do you still mad with the fact that I disguised myself?” Asked Oz.

Geeta gazes at Oz’s face for a moment before answering: “Nope, I’m sorry, it’s so immature for me to be mad just because of that,” with a cheerful smile.

“Nope, it’s my fault, I’m too afraid to tell you my real identity,” (Oz)

“It’s okay Ren, I’ve forgiven you, I would do the same thing if I’m in your position,” Said Geeta kindly.

“Heh, I’m so lucky to know all of you,” Mumbled Ren as he gazes the skies.

“We’re the one who supposed to say that, Ren. I believe the others thought the same with me,” (Geeta)

Oz just smiles hearing Geeta’s answer, they gaze the scenery together for some moments until Oz bids farewell to take some rest.

Oz sent his consciousness back to his real body and leaked a sigh.

(Let’s get some rest, I’m tired as hell!) (Oz)

But as Oz closed his eyes and about to enter the dreamlands, something at his arms moves around.

“Mmhhh…” A moan suddenly sounded from Oz’s arms.

!!??

Oz opens his eyes and took a peek at what at his arms, and leaked out a surprised shout.

“AAAAAAAAARGH” (Oz)
