《Path of the Conqueror》Chapter-10 Power System
Advertisement
Zeidan and his eleven knights were like his comrades. He relies on them the most in bad times. As everyone left, they dropped the act of pleasantries.
"Zeidan, there is something wrong with your child. Not exactly wrong but terrifying."
"What do you mean Raiser?"
"I mean when he was saying all those things. It was as if I am being dominated by his speech. He was affecting my thought process. When I took that oath. It was as if I wasn't thinking clearly and did it on impulse."
"So, you're telling that you took an oath not because you wanted to but because a nine-year-old child manipulated you."
"Well, yeah. Think about it do you really believe that all of us took a bloodline oath because we wanted to? I don't know what the reason is. But I think it's because of him. It is the most important decision of our life. And we just make it without thinking even a bit."
"Yeah, the only person I think who can take that oath is Morris. He is most loyal to me and actually cares for Bane household."
"Thank you, my lord."
"Hey, that hurt. We care for you too." Raina pouted.
"I know, Raina. But would you have taken an oath which would bind you for a lifetime? This is not a small matter as you think."
"Well, it is not. Oh... you are right. Till now, My brain is reacting to the situation like it's a joke. Zeidan if Zain has such a terrifying ability to control minds, why doesn't he use it?"
"Maybe because he doesn't know about it."
"So, what do you suggest Raiser?"
"I don't know. Well, let's just forget about it for now. What we need to focus on right now is making this plan a success. It would change the Bane household completely."

"Yes my lord, Whatever it is young master has a great mind. To be able to think of such schemes. My lord, what about his fighting power?"
"Yes, Morris. I am thinking the same thing. Well, deliver him some books on the power system and stuff. I am sure, he will surprise us. Let's get to work now."
What they didn't know was that Zain had spent the remaining two and half million gold coins to buy high-grade charm potions and mixed them in the wine to meddle with their thought process and make them swear a bloodline oath.
They don't know that it was the effect of the wine. It blurred their thought process making them take decisions in heat of the moment. The wine was already able to make someone like Zeidan drunk and with a high-grade charm potion just did the rest of the job.
He had to wait for the perfect moment to take action. As all of them were already loyal to the Bane family and wished for wealth. The wine and charm potion increases these feelings a hundred folds which leads them to make a haste decision.
________________________
A week passed in the blink of an eye. Zain was still staying at the Palace. The whole palace was bustling with activities. People getting ready for a huge change to come. But the mastermind of all this was lying on his bed with a book in his hand and a huge pile nearby.
These were the books Morris had delivered him five days ago. Zain go through them several times to make sure he didn't leave any detail. Now, he knew the basic power system of these planes.
The power ranks go all the way up to 40. Rank 1 to 10 were mostly common warriors and mages. They were the preparatory ranks. Although Rank 10 was a huge deal for commoners. But they were just cannon fodder for upper ranks.

From Rank 11 to 15 were saints and great mages. They were considered elite troops of small nobles. But in a big noble household, they were just better troops than common soldiers nothing else.
From Rank 16 to 20 came the sky saints and grand mages. They are the main forces of a family. They were mostly in commanding positions in the army and were treated much better. They were regarded as elites.
Next was Rank 21 to 25 they were epic beings. They were the core of the family. But even in most top nobles' families, they were not more than fifty or so. Their role was only in big missions and battles. So, they made an appearance very less.
Now, the bigger guns Rank 26 to 30, super epic beings. They represented power. Even Dukes had to pay respects to them. They would only be present in Dukedoms or royal families. Even the Royal family of the Zinovia empire would have only thirty at maximum.
Next were the Rank 31 to 40, Legends. They were the powerhouses of a plane. Even on entire Miraz, there wouldn't be more than a couple of hundreds. They are the one who lead the planar wars. Beings that were could decide the battle with one move.
After all these levels, beyond Rank 40 were the Novas. You count them on your hands. They were the protectors of the planes. They only fought with other Novas, and yes, there were exceptions too. But they represented the strength of a plane.
A plane that had a Nova was considered a primary plane. It means that it had enough resources to produce a Nova. Those who don't have one were considered secondary.
Miraz plane currently had thirteen Novas. Zinovia empire had three of them. But having that many Novas were for a reason and a bad one. Currently, the Miraz plane was at war with five primary planes, which each had at least three Nova each.
It was because the Novas of Miraz each had shown their presence. The primary planes were not attacking with full power. They don't want the thirteen Novas to attack them all at once.
If all of the attacking planes were to make a move together the Miraz plane would be outnumbered. But this couldn't happen. As they can't contact each other, at least for now.
Miraz plane was a part of the Albion alliance. There were forty primary planes in it. Miraz was ranked first in power but due to its forces being spread out because of wars, they were more or less equal to the other top five planes.
The alliance had the main base on a plane called Oasis. This was where the meeting of the alliance took place. And it wasn't just restricted to that. This was a place where you could find anything you want, you just have to offer the right price.
This was a trading centre for the forty-powerful plane. Only the most powerful families of those forty planes could own land here. So, everyone present in Oasis was a big shot, who had the backing of a powerful family.
