From The Weakest Lord To The Wisest Emperor : Enzo's Path To Conquest

Attack!" I bellowed at the top of my lungs, my voice carrying across the chaotic battlefield. The clashing of swords, the thunderous pounding of hooves, and the sharp crack of arrows filled the air. It was a symphony of war, a dance of life and death. But you might be wondering, why was I, a simple individual just five months ago, now standing here amidst the chaos, commanding and fighting alongside seasoned warriors? Fate had other plans for me.

*********

I'm Enzo, a simple guy leading an ordinary life. I find solace in the world of books, where stories unfold and colors paint my otherwise mundane existence.

Reading is my passion, and it's through the pages that I embark on thrilling adventures, explore new realms, and meet fascinating characters. Whether it's a tale of romance, a gripping mystery, or a fantastical journey, the words on the pages transport me to a world beyond my own. Within the confines of my cozy nook, I escape the monotony and dive into a realm of imagination and endless possibilities.

Reading is my gateway to a vibrant life, a treasure trove of knowledge, and a constant source of joy.

Growing up without parents, my life has been marked by a sense of monotony.

Residing in an orphanage, I often feel isolated from the world around me.

I was left at the front door as a crying newborn, as my aunt recounted.

As I grew older, I found solace and escape in the pages of books.

Immersed in my own world, I spent countless hours reading, often finding myself alone in a corner.

Perhaps this solitary pursuit contributed to my lack of parental interest and the absence of friendships at the orphanage.

But despite the loneliness, I find fulfillment within the pages, as if living a life brimming with adventure and possibility.

Through primary school and into high school, the feeling of being alone persisted.

At the age of 18, I made the decision to venture out from the confines of the orphanage and embrace a life of independence.

With a limited budget, I found a humble room, perfectly suited for a single person, at an affordable monthly rate of just $20. To sustain myself financially, I took on various part-time jobs, including working at a 24-hour convenience store and offering tutoring services.

However, my true passion lies in my job as a librarian, where I have the privilege of immersing myself in books without the burden of cost. It is within the quiet walls of the library that I feel most alive, surrounded by the literary treasures that fuel my imagination and provide solace in my solitary existence.

In terms of appearance, I am an average individual, lacking any remarkable aura or exceptional luck. Standing at a modest height of 170 cm, with a slender frame and donning glasses due to years of reading, I may not catch the attention of others with my physical attributes. However, it is my decent intellect that serves as my greatest asset, allowing me to navigate through life and make a living.

My mind, sharpened by the knowledge gained from countless books, provides me with the means to sustain myself in this world.

Friday, February 22, 2027.

The sound of chirping birds greets me as I slowly awaken to the gentle rays of morning sunlight streaming through my small window. Deep in slumber, I feel a sudden discomfort in my ear as the piercing sound of my alarm clock jolts me awake. "Ugh! My ear hurts!" I groan, reaching out to find my glasses on the side of the pillow. With a quick swipe of my hand, I manage to silence the relentless ringing, welcoming a moment of tranquility before embarking on a search for my much-needed glasses.

Once I locate my glasses and slip them onto my nose, the world transforms from a blurry haze to a clear vision. With renewed clarity, I rise from my bed and proceed to tidy up the disheveled sheets, starting my daily early routine.

Stretching my limbs and shaking off the remnants of sleep, I take a deep breath, ready to face the new day ahead.

After Some time,

As I open my fridge to prepare my breakfast, a wave of disappointment washes over me as I realize that my options are limited.

Amongst the sparse contents, I find only a solitary cup of noodles, a lone egg, and a single vegetable. In my current circumstances, I let out a sigh, acknowledging that it may not be the most satisfying morning meal, but it's better than nothing.

With a mix of resignation and determination, I proceed to cook and savor my modest breakfast.

Once nourished, I swiftly get dressed, readying myself for the day ahead, knowing that it will be another day of navigating through the routines of my regular life.

Mounting my bike, I pedal my way to my part-time job, the school library, which conveniently lies a mere 8 kilometers away from my rented home.

Arriving at the library, I greet Mrs. Osford, the Head Librarian, with a warm smile. "Good day, Mrs. Osford," I say, my voice filled with genuine enthusiasm.

Once settled, I station myself at the information desk, ready to assist students in their quest for knowledge. As they approach, I engage in conversations, helping them locate the books they seek and offering recommendations based on their interests. The hours slip away unnoticed, absorbed in the pages of various books.

As the clock strikes 2 p.m., it marks the end of my shift. Today had been a typical day, devoid of any extraordinary events, just another routine of reading and guiding students through the labyrinth of literature.

[You have a message]

As I exit the Library, my phone jolts to life with a message from Officer Jason. The words flash across the screen: [Hey! I have an important task for you, little brother, and the reward is substantial this time. Come to my office as soon as possible].

It may seem odd that I have a connection with the police, but it all began when I found myself unexpectedly entangled in a crime. With my intellect and determination, I managed to unravel the mystery, much like a protagonist from a shounen manga with glasses and an enthusiastic

youngster who always said his granpa's name.

Without hesitation, I quickly composed my response: "Okay, I'm on my way." With a sense of purpose, I make my way to the Police Station without delay, eager to earn the rewards that awaits me.

When I step into the police station, Officer Jason's warm smile greets me. "Welcome, little brother!" he exclaims, his voice filled with genuine camaraderie. I return the greeting with a nod and a smile of my own.

Curiosity is burning within me, I can't help but ask, "Officer Jason, what's our case for today?" My eyes meet his, eager to hear the details of the task that awaits us.

His expression turns more serious as he leans in slightly, his voice lowered. "We have a murder case on our hands," he confides, a hint of concern in his eyes. "A prominent businessman was found dead in his own mansion last night. The circumstances are puzzling, and we need someone with your intellect and knack for solving mysteries to help crack this case."

My heart quickens with a mix of excitement and apprehension. Murder cases always present a daunting challenge, but I know deep down that I have the ability to make a difference. "I'm ready," I respond, determination lacing my voice. "Lead the way, Officer Jason. Let's get to the bottom of this and bring justice to the victim."

With a shared resolve, we set off towards the investigation room, ready to delve into the intricate web of clues and unravel the truth behind the mysterious murder.

As the night falls and our investigation reaches its conclusion, I find myself preparing to leave the police station. Officer Jason approaches me, gratitude evident in his voice. "Thank you for your invaluable help, little brother," he expresses sincerely.

A sense of fulfillment washes over me, knowing that our combined efforts have brought closure to a complex case. I offer a nod of appreciation to Officer Jason, acknowledging the bond we have formed throughout this challenging case.

"It was an honor to assist," I reply, my voice filled with a mix of satisfaction and humility. "If there's ever a need for my help again, you know where to find me."

With that, I make my way towards the exit, carrying with me a newfound sense of purpose and accomplishment.

As I walk through the night, holding a plastic bag from the convenience store, an unexpected event unfolds before my eyes.

Suddenly, a brilliant burst of light engulfs my surroundings, momentarily blinding me. I shield my eyes with my free hand, trying to comprehend what is happening.

"Huh? Where I am?"

Confused and disoriented, I find myself uttering those words as I try to make sense of my surroundings.

The flash of light has transported me to an unfamiliar place, leaving me with a sense of bewilderment. I take in my surroundings, searching for familiar landmarks or any semblance of recognition. The air feels different, the landscape unfamiliar, and my heart beats with a mixture of excitement and apprehension. With a deep breath, I brace myself for the unknown, ready to embark on a new chapter of adventure and discovery.

End of Chapter.
