Read Proabe :: CHAPTER 02, Part 2

The church that I am living in is filled with books, they were all donated of course, but, that’s not the important thing in here.

From all of the light novels and mangas that I have read, I decided to do what any smart isekai protagonist would do in a new world, that is, to read books to know more about this world!

In this process, I found a book named “The proud history of the kingdoms”, if you are wondering about how am I able to read the words then trust me you are asking the wrong person. Looks like I am getting too much plot armor in this novel.

Half an hour later,

Hmm…from what I have read, this is the kind of world where a person’s worth is measured by his strength, unlike mine where education topped everything. There is a class system in this world. The people are broadly divided into three categories, Royalty, Nobility, and Commoners. This system is roughly followed in almost all of the nations. There are 5 major nations, Elynisia, Inolia, Alinmei, Meria, and Darman. I belonged to the Kingdom of Elynisia.

The Kingdom of Elynisia is one of the resource-rich nations around the world. On the eastern and western sides, Elynisia is surrounded by a thick patch of forest called the East and West forest of Shural, and on the southern part, there is the Great Frost Forbidden land, a very dangerous zone where even fire is said to freeze under the extremely low temperature! On the northern side, there is the Thalassa Ocean which also acts as one of the major sources of income for this nation. The capital of the Elynisia Kingdom is the Capital City of Amelia.

There is a dual government system in the Elynisia Kingdom, there is the King and the Chancellor.

The King is the nominal ruler of Elynisia, the post of a king is passed down from generation to generation amongst the royal families. But the position of Chancellor is occupied only by the strongest person in Elynisia.

The Chancellor is the actual ruler of Elynisia, he or she is responsible for safeguarding this nation. The Chancellor has 10 teams under him which are called THE EXEMPLARY TEN. The Exemplary Ten are ten different squads of magic warriors who are amongst the strongest warriors of this nation. Apart from the EXEMPLARY TEN, there is also a group called the Border Police. The Border Police are responsible for guarding the borders. They are an independent unit made up of people from different classes. And then there is the army, the army is divided equally between the King and The Chancellor.

This is a world of magic, so most of the things in here are made up of mana,

The smallest amount of magic power that can be emitted or absorbed without getting affected by any external force is called Mana. So mana is something very similar to quantum.

A person can theoretically use magic as soon as he is born, but in reality, most people can’t use magic before they are at least 6 to 7 years old. Most people can use magic up to some extent before they turn 10.

Then, when one turns 14, he or she is bestowed with something called the Regalia.

Regalia is an insignia that gets printed on your palm during the Regalia Bestowal Ceremony. Through the usage of Regalia, one gets to have amazing powers like a boost in magic power, an arsenal of spells, and sometimes even a weapon!

Ah well, looks like I forgot to mention it but generally, a person in his entire life can only use one type of magical element. That is to say, a person can only have one Regalia symbol on him in normal circumstances. Any attempts to add more will end up in a failure.

Every country in this world has its own currency. Branzium is used as the universal alloy for all the coins in this world. The currency of Elynisia Kingdom is called Eli, there is the picture of a crown on one side of the coin and the picture of regalia on the other side.

I was reading through the book when my gaze fell on another book named, ‘The Basics of Magic’, so I picked up that book and started reading it. It was an interesting book, it contained various spells and information about different types of magic.

Then there was also a method prescribed to determine the magic element of a person. The method was pretty simple, I just had to sit in the lotus position, calm my breathing and then try to concentrate at the center of my right palm.
