Chapter 42: The Kings of the Aryans

"A power level of 1.65, my strength has increased so fast! Taking over territory really speeds up my growth. I'm 10 times stronger than I was yesterday!" Li Wei was satisfied with the power he possessed.

"Also, how does a strength of 1.65 compare to that of the Kshatriya nobleman named Sakje in Tuli Town?" Levi pondered, looking down. In the original owner's memories, this Kshatriya nobleman, who controlled 50,000 residents of Tuli Town and had 500 armored soldiers under his command, should have a strength of between 1.9 and 2.

Without a doubt, Livy's current imagination is no match for that of this Kshatriya nobleman.

This is understandable, considering he only controls twelve villages, while this Kshatriya nobleman controls a town and has been managing it for several years.

But then again, Li Wei is a three-headed Naga, and with the forbidden martial art Naga Eight Steps and Sakje, the power of a bronze-blooded king's bloodline is no match for his own.

Therefore, although Sakje's imagination was superior, Livy was able to compete with Sakje by virtue of his other advantages.

The Kshatriyas' practice differs from that of the Brahmins, who derive their power from deities. Their power originates from royal covenants, or alliances among kings.

In the earliest times, several ancient kings of the Aryans conquered this vast continent one after another. They expanded their territory, conquered people, eliminated evil gods, killed monsters, worshipped righteous gods, slew rampant demons, and drove out or incorporated primitive spirits and earth deities. Step by step, they worked hard to expand this territory to an immeasurable size, a land inhabited by approximately 10 billion people.

In order to maintain the rule of the Aryans, several ancient Aryan kings, including the Sun King, the ancestor of Naguta, convened the Aryan princes and meritorious generals in the holy land of Magadha, the center of the continent, to formulate a covenant.

That was a grand oath that determined the pattern of civilization for the next ten thousand years, known in history as the "First Covenant of Kings" or the "Solar Covenant".

This covenant involved a grand priestly ceremony that lasted for forty-nine days, during which the kings engaged in heated discussions.

"My chariots have crushed twenty-seven Daza city-states! By right of merit, the pastures between the Vya River and the Yammona River should all belong to my tribe!" said one of the kings.

"Honors? Without my priest's assistance in bringing down thunder and rain to destroy the enemy's earth spirit totem, your chariot would have rotted away in the swamp long ago!" another king retorted with a sneer.

"My mother is the daughter of the snow mountain! My bloodline belongs to one of the seven oldest and most noble clans of the Yali people! Sun King, you must avenge me! They have seized and divided my land, and now they want to expel my descendants!" A prince from the mountains, adorned with heavy gold ornaments, cried out from the edge of the camp. "You cannot confuse me with those generals who have just laid down their stone axes!"

The argument continued until, finally, on the forty-ninth day, it ended. The most powerful ancient kings made the final decision and established the rules. Led by the Sun King, they cut their palms and dripped the blood of the sacred Yari King into the Golden Covenant, which was mixed with the essence of the giant beast and Soma wine. They swore an oath with the blood wine, establishing the caste law that would last for eternity. The descendants of the ancient kings and nobles would become Brahmins, possessing the right to communicate with the gods.

The meritorious generals and ministers, who pledged allegiance to the descendants of the kings, were called Kshatriyas. They had no right to communicate with the gods, but they could draw strength from the covenants established by the most powerful ancient kings.

Kshatriyas pledged allegiance to the bloodline of the kings and were permitted to drink blood wine from the boiling "cauldron of covenants," thereby obtaining fragments of the ancient kings' conquering power and the blessing of their ruling laws, becoming Kshatriyas who wielded military force, protection, and governance.

This was the first covenant of kings, which gave rise to the first group of Brahmins and Kshatriyas.

In the future, whenever a change of dynasty involving billions of people occurred on this continent, the kings of the Aryans would, like the first few ancient kings, convene a covenant in the central region of the continent, giving rise to a new Brahmin and Kshatriya community.

Just as Brahmins like Livy were ranked by bloodline, so too were those like Sakja, whose power came from the covenant of kings, ranked by bloodline.

Those with poor aptitude cannot communicate with Wang Yue and thus cannot obtain power.

The slightly better Kshatriyas are called Blackbloods because the power they obtain from the King's Covenant is black, which is a lower level of power.

Sakje is already considered an elite. The power he gained from the King's Covenant is bronze-colored, hence the name "Bronze Bloodline," which is equivalent to the two-headed Naga of the Levi family.

As for Li Wei's three-headed Naga now, it is equivalent to the silver bloodline of the Kshatriyas.

"The king that Sakje worships is King Blacksa, a king who controls the power of the dead. Also, if I remember correctly, this King Blacksa was a king who submitted to my ancestor. That covenant of kings was led by my ancestor."

Li Wei tried hard to recall from his memories that Sakje's fighting style was somewhat like that of a necromancer. This person could summon undead skeletons, and this power came from the Black King, whose god was a necromancer.

Furthermore, King Hesa ​​lived approximately six thousand years ago, which is the era of his direct ancestor, King Amaya, who was favored by Shesa.

King Amaya was undoubtedly the greatest ruler of the world six thousand years ago. He directly conquered and ruled over the vast majority of the core regions, and the richest population and land were under his rule. However, due to the sheer size of the continent and the sheer number of people, he was unable to directly rule over the entire continent.

But at the very least, even the kings of the most remote borderlands of this continent outwardly submitted to him, recognizing him as the king of kings of the Aryans. For example, the Black King, who lived in the southern land of the dead, presented a map symbolizing the territory of his country.

Six thousand years ago, King Amaya summoned the kings of the Aryans to the center of the continent and began the Third Covenant of Kings.

In that covenant, King Hesa ​​swore allegiance in this way.

"The esteemed 'World Bearer'..."

King Hesa ​​knelt on one knee, gazing upon Amaya, the King of Kings of the Aryans: "Death... also acknowledges your order. I, King Hesa, wish to bring the kingdom of the dead into the shadow of your glorious laws... and I and my descendants will, according to the covenant, guard the silent gates of your southern frontier."

It was during this oath-taking ceremony by King Hesa ​​that King Amaya generously included the surnames of several of King Hesa's generals in the covenant.

The surname Darban is among them, and Sakjee's surname is Darban.

In other words, Sakje is able to become a Kshatriya today thanks to Livy's ancestor who convened the Third Covenant of Kings and inscribed his ancestor's name on it.

Thinking about it this way, one can see the magnificence of that ancient tower. In two of the three previous alliances of kings, the ancestors of that ancient tower were the leaders.

Besides gaining power from the royal covenant, some Kshatriyas are known as divinely favored Kshatriyas. They can communicate with the gods. These people are usually the offspring of intermarriage between Kshatriyas and Brahmins. The Brahmin bloodline in their bodies awakens, causing them to communicate with the gods. Therefore, it is difficult to say whether these people are Kshatriyas or Brahmins.

After all, it is officially stipulated that only Brahmins can communicate with the gods.

"Uniting the feudal lords nine times and bringing order to the world, the achievements of our ancestors are truly admirable." Li Wei couldn't help but sigh. Which man doesn't dream of becoming like that, gathering the kings, dominating the world, and achieving hegemony?

Even after death, the great name of every leader of the covenant of kings will be spread by millions of people. Just like King Amaya, who has been dead for six thousand years, many people still respect and fear his name.

Even after death, their incense continues to burn.

Take Sakje for example. To gain power from the King's Covenant, he has to take two steps: first, he must worship King Amaya, and then he must worship King Black Demon.
