Synopsis
Stranded far from their home kingdom of Arkraiel, the two search for answers. While Max prioritizes survival and rest, Ak ventures into a nearby kingdom, driven by curiosity. There, he discovers a grand temple dedicated to powerful divine beings known as the Operators—gods who protect the world from destructive entities. Intrigued, Ak arranges to hear their origin story from a priest. However, strange and dangerous events unfold. In a forest, Ak encounters a mysterious red-cloaked figure with immense power—someone capable of shattering the ground with a single strike. Though Ak narrowly survives, fear and confusion grow. When he later returns to the priest for answers, he instead finds him murdered under suspicious circumstances. Refusing to abandon the truth, Ak becomes increasingly driven to uncover what happened, even as Max urges caution. Their investigation leads to suspicion from the kingdom’s people, resulting in their exile. Forced to live in secrecy, they continue searching for clues while preparing to return home. But fate intervenes again. The mysterious killer reappears, and Ak confronts him despite being outmatched. In a desperate battle near a cliff, Max sacrifices himself to stop the attacker, leaping into the abyss with the enemy. Ak is left behind—injured, shaken, and forever changed. Now alone in an unfamiliar world filled with gods, hidden truths, and deadly enemies, Ak must grow beyond his limits. What began as an accident becomes the start of a much larger journey—one that will determine whether he rises to become the knight-king he was destined to be, or falls to the darkness surrounding him.

Chapter 1 - ALTER CH1

On a day of blue sky, two people are sitting on a cliff and talking.

 

Ak asked Max Why are we sitting here'. Max replied, 'Just for fun.' Ak shouted, 'This is fun?' Max said, 'Overcome your fear, my little bro. Ak asked, " Who will not be scared in this situation?" Max asked, " Did I look scared? "Ak replied, 'Why will you be scared? You are a vanguard knight.' But Max told Ak that one day he would also be a knight-king too. Am I correct?' Yes, but now I am not that capable'. Ak told, and Max said, I didn't expect this from the greatest knight s-s-

 

Suddenly, the blue sky had changed into a dark, stormy night. Both were suddenly shocked. Max told AK to run towards the kingdom. As they were running, a thunderbolt struck them. After some time, Max woke up AK. They were somewhere else. Max said they were somewhere that they don't resemble. AK asked what had just happened. Max had no idea. Both were confused. Nearby, he felt they could get someone's help, but instead of any help, they were roaming here and there. After some time, they found a house near a Kingdom. Max decided to rest because he thought AK was a little tired, but AK wasn't, so he went into the Kingdom and found a clue about what had happened. He was amazed to see the surroundings, many houses, lots of people, and many new cultural things, but there was a big building that caught AK's eye. He entered the building with lots of questions. 9 massive statues and very excited, he suddenly felt that someone was behind him. When he looked back, there was a priest, and he gave way to the priest to go forward, but as AK had lots of questions, he decided to question the priest, and the priest asked AK why he was following him.
