Sometime in the 11th century BC

The story started from the birth of a boy from a Greek king father and an Eastern kingdom goddess mother.

His mixed heritage gave him impure royal blood, placing him last in the line of royal succession, but he never cared for the royal throne.

His early age, as was for any royal boy his age, was filled to the brim with tutoring, from simple etiquette, history, to the royal combat training.

He was found, from early on, to be the most talented amongst his peers, even compared to his own brother.

Instead of it being a blessing, however, it only sowed distrust and jealousy within the walls of the royal palace.

His mother passed away when he was young, and the boy, no longer able to bear the cutthroat palace life, decided to leave and take on the mantle of an adventurer.

The last words he heard from his father was:

You are the son of gods, wherever your path leads, always remember to obey the will of your god.

Growing up, he did not have the chance to discover the truth, but after a while he could feel strength unlike his peers brimming through his veins.

The power in his body only became more overwhelming when the boy was suddenly taken to a magical place.

The place was called: \'The Magus Academy\'.

Being spirited away to another world was such an unbelievable experience for him.

In there, he met four others who were chosen like him, a bulky muscled man, a pretty looking one and a pair of twins.

You have an S-rank aptitude! That\'s unfair, all of us posess only A-rank. said his new friends

Perhaps due to being in a strange world and knowing no one else, the five of them became closer as their time in the academy rolled by.

They trained together, solved problems together and fought together.

Time passed by far too quickly and, without him realizing it, it was time for him to return to Earth for the time being.

As soon as he returned after his first year, everything became so different for him.

The Xia Dynasty, the biggest and most powerful kingdom on Earth, unrivalled by even Greece and Egypt combined, came seeking for him.

Many died in the process of hunting and capturing him.

In the end, he was finally caught and forced to go to a kingdom in the far East.

To his surprise, he found himself being taken there to his four academy friends.

They were brought to see the Xia emperor, a legendary figure known as the Heavenly Sovereign.

However, the Greeks knew him as the Eastern Sage.

Before they returned to Earth, they were given a restriction spell, but the sage was able to sidestep it and explained about Magus Academy.

He himself was part of the five chosen by the academy a thousand years before.

The sage\'s purpose was to prepare all five of them to succeed in the academy to the best of their abilities.

Each of them were given special, ancient techniques to help them gain an edge against the other students.

Unfortunately, despite going through difficult, grueling training, only the boy out of the five managed to get a spot in the elite class.

They went through their three years in the academy and returned back to Earth with strength beyond what was possible for a mortal.

The boy was at peak rank 9, while the four friends were at peak of rank 8.

It took a dozen years before his four brothers joined him on rank 9.

The five became the strongest fighters of the Xia dynasty.

Years passed, until one day, for some unknown reason, the sage disappeared, leaving the five to take charge while he was gone.

With the five, the dynasty conquered half the world and they finally reached the shores of Greek city-states once more.

Seeing the familiar place, doubt took root in the boy\'s heart.

He returned to his father, the king, only to see him at his dying breath.

Once again, his father\'s last words told him to obey the will of the god.

With the death of his father, came a power vacuum and the crushing will of the people.

It was up to him to take the reins.

When he was contemplating on what to do, something happened in the middle of the night.

That night, everything was quiet, not even the noises of insects and wind could be heard.

The place became still and crushing, as if no one dared to disturb the skies and the land itself.

Right as the time struck midnight, the clouds parted and a great light shone from the sky towards one of the temples, creating a beacon that beckoned the masses to wake up and look at it.

With a crack of lightning, their god descended right in front of their eyes.

The god came with the clap of thunder, as if announcing he was a great lightning magus.

Not knowing what to do, the citizens bowed until their foreheads touched the dirt.

Your gods have listened to your prayer. The god floated towards the kneeling masses, each citizen could feel the distinct prickling of electricity on their back.

Now, with my blessing, go forth across the battlefield and defeat the invader!

Their god was real and alive, that was enough to raise up the spirits of all Greek people in the city.

He saw the god come closer to him, look at him from top to bottom and nodding in approval, before asking about his position in the upcoming war.

You, you shall be our champion to stop them.

At that time, he was forced to choose a side and decided to follow the will of the gods and stop the ruthless invasion of the Xia dynasty, all for the sake of his own people.

What followed was a brutal battle that went on without cease for 100 years.

It was a dark period in human history, such that most of it were stricken away from any historical records.

The only surviving parts called it the Dark Ages; it stretched out from 10th century BC to 8th century.

No historical accounts survived that period of slaughter and bloodbath, but two stories spoke of several critical moments within the war.

One was written by the Xia dynasty as a book called Mahabharata and the other was written by the Greeks.

A well-known story of their greatest greek hero who leads them to victory against the invaders across the sea, the hero\'s name was Achilles.

Author Note

I apologize if it seems too much info dump these few chapters, I hope you could be open-minded with my version of history.  The dark ages of greek were real in history and the only surviving text of that period was the book of Illiad and the book of Mahabharata.

Which some historian belief to be a similar story written from each side.
