Chapter 3 - The First Chapter - The Establishment

After negotiating with the Pharaoh (Djer), both agreed on peace terms and helped on both sides, thus, the Lounis Kingdom's population further increased, significantly reaching over 4 thousand people within 2 years.

This significant growth was all planned by Mark Louis, who was entitled, Mark Louis Wer. Which means 'Great' or 'Chief'.

They built houses, and establishing their own capital. 'Loenia' which Louis had the authority call it.

At first, it was really tiring and challenging to even build a single house, but eventually, adapting to it is now easier than ever.

In 2996 BCE, Djer kept it's loyalty to Louis and never, ever harmed a single person at his kingdom, due to his fluent speaking of their language, and the reassurance. That both Lounis and the Egypt will not go into another conflict once again.

But Eventually, Djer's reign was over, and his Son, Djet, ruled over Egypt as the new Pharaoh on 2990 BCE.

Djet never liked the rule of the increasing power of Lounis, he feared that they might potentially knock Egypt out of the map. So he eventually got to work.

Training young men, middle aged men, and old men to the Egyptian army, they relied on supplies, and defensive strategies. Eventually, when Djet sent a scout to the Kingdom, and after Louis refused to be in control of the Egyptians, they declared

WAR.

Louis didn't know about this at first, until when 56 Engineers thought by Louis, and Louis, being busy building a village called 'Noirskryptoh' just off the North of Loenis. He encountered the Egyptian Army all in their guard and ready to attack.

"Hey... what are you doing...?"

Without a second thought Djet shouted one word:

"CHARGGGEEE!!! "

All 500 men charged at the unestablished village, Louis cannot handle this much horde by himself, so in order to take care of his people, he also shouted a word.

"RECALL BACK!!! "

The 56 Builders of the Kingdom of Lounis retreated back. Abandoning the village as the Egyptians wrecked the village, they looted stuff, such as new minerals (to them) like silver, copper and cobblestone.

After they we're done scavenging the entire village itself, they faced the 300 deployed by Louis himself, having already steel armor, swords, and comfortable boots.

They we're also well-rested, and trained under the hands of Mark Louis. They learned new techniques and combat intelligence themselves.

This begins the Battle of Noir.

As the Egyptians charged at the army without hesitation or even fear whatsoever– making them fierce, and cunning, as some of them also smirked, thinking that they can obliterate the kingdom within a week, they we're shocked to find when Louis came back once again to retake the village.

Djet commanded all of the men to kill Louis's army, but no, Louis splitted the army into 3, the spearmen, with General Jatz leading. And the horsemen, with General Kjei took command.

But this was one part of Louis's large plan, as they skewered on the forces of Louis's swordmen, thinking that the Egyptians already won, General Kjei eliminated the forces on the back, along with General Jatz capturing their Pharaoh.

The first Encirclement plan of Louis, was successful, as the egyptians didn't fully well know about military tactics, fighting off against an expert of the future which they didn't know was one mistake they ever did.

The Battle of Noir took over 160 Egyptian casualties, and 440 captured or escaped.

Eventually, Djet was taken a beating severely by both generals, until Louis came near him.

" Why would you go against me?... "

Djet was just silent, no words we're heard from him, as probably he was ashamed.

" You have broke the treaty, the treaty where your late father agreed upon! "

Until– he finally spoke his truth.

" I was afraid. "

Louis was confused.

" Why would you be afraid?, afraid of our power?, our wealth?, our prosperity? "

Djet nodded shakenly, as that was true, but. There was one that Louis didn't know why Djet feared the Lounis Kingdom.

" I'm afraid that you'll take over my homeland, enslave my people, and wreck us. "

Louis patted his shoulder, along with a gentle smile, as a gesture, his both generals we're puzzled.

" Your Majesty... "

" Your Majesty! "

Djet shouted loudly. Louis was caught off guard by this.

" Yes...? "

"I swear upon my blood, the Egyptians won't attack you..."

Louis nodded quietly.

" Keep that promise, or we'll just unite. "

Djet was baffled by the new word.

" U... Untite...? "

" Yes, Unite, it means that we'll be under one, but that'll be soon. I'll make your people learn from me. "

Djet's tears overflowed like a river, thanks to Louis's soft, wise and pleasant gesture. He was moved.

" Right... "

Eventually, the town of Noirskryptoh (Noir), was completely built within the span of just one year.

Louis established architecture, clean roads, laws, and even education for the children to learn.

The growth of the Lounis Kingdom significantly altered the course of history, due to Louis's advanced knowledge and wisdom, he was unbeatable when it comes to technology and advancements, but not mostly military tactics, he has his own limits as a human being.

Then years go by, on 2988-2976 BCE.

He established his own library, which his people asked 'What does it contain?' he replied. 'Books, tons of books.' and his people asked again. 'What are books?' And he answered. 'Just like your own writing, or just i call it, writing on stone Hieroglyphs. But this time, we have soft, polished, and clean. that's books!' His people agreed with his idea and built it. In less than a month.

Eventually, he called it: The Library of Lounis.

Where his most famous book, read by most of his people, the egyptians and even the Sumerians who wanted to explore the vast known world to the west.

This was the book of 'The 100 types of Technology; and how to build it'

Which contains over 1st century BC to 16th century CE technology in one single book. Containing over 1640 pages, it took Louis over 6 years to complete the entirety and polish the writing.

Now, the Lounis Kingdom was at it's early rise. And they we're also curious, of Louis's Immortality.
