About a thousand years ago, during a time when the power of magic and bravery were paramount, and tyranny and deception were deeply ingrained in human hearts, each king aspired to attack his neighbor and conquer their land to bring it under his rule. At this time, there were major cities in the world that held sway, ruling the entire world. These cities included Sin, Rum, Misra, and Hindu.
The city of Sin was under the rule of King Abul-uyum. Abul-uyum was a formidable warrior capable of defeating any man in combat. It was said that due to his bravery, he could fight for three consecutive days without eating or drinking, let alone getting tired. Regarding magical power, wealth, and a formidable army, he surpassed all the kings of the western world. Because of this, he became a legendary figure and a menace to the rulers of the continent.
The city of Rum was under the leadership of King Fitinatul-muluk ibn Larab. Fitinatul-muluk was a notorious sorcerer, a brave hero, and a possessor of vast wealth, including treasures and exotic animals. Researchers and fortune-tellers confirmed that his palace housed an army of one million jinn and humans, in addition to those assigned to raid cities and countries for the slave trade. Almost everything in his palace was acquired through magical power. Because of this, the kings referred to him as the "Plague of Kings."
King Hubaizu ibn Shardas ruled the city of Hindu. Hubaizu was a man of exceptional courage and bravery, knowledgeable in the secrets of magic, and possessed great wealth. He was the seventieth king in the line of rulers in the city of Hindu, having ascended the throne at the age of fifteen, and he was now seventy years old. According to the research of sorcerers and fortune-tellers, they discovered that every day, King Hubaizu gained one million new magical secrets. He obtained these secrets whenever he lay with one of his maidservants. The sorcerers found that whenever this happened, his physical strength increased fiftyfold. Because of this, he became known to the kings of the continent as the "Plague of a Hundred."
The city of Misra was under the leadership of a valiant warrior known as Ayumul-barqas ibn Zairul. King Ayumul-barqas was a man of extraordinary abilities. He did not practice magic, and no spell could affect him. No matter the strength of your magical secrets, if you faced him, they would become ineffective.
All four kings—Abul-uyum, Hubaizu, Fitinatul-muluk, and Ayumul-barqas—were sworn enemies. Each king's ultimate goal was to eliminate his rivals and become the king of kings of the world. Through their magical consultations, they discovered that none of them could achieve this goal without possessing a certain book known as the "Book of Wonders" kept in the cave of Garul-Shammar.
The Book of Wonders contained fifty billion magical secrets. No creature on earth, whether human or jinn, could possess the book without becoming invincible and the "Plague of a Hundred."
However, even if someone obtained the Book of Wonders, they could not use it without possessing a certain cube called the "Key of Magic." Currently, the Key of Magic was divided into four parts, with each king holding one part, inherited from their ancestors.
When the four kings realized this through their magical resources, they were greatly troubled. The first thing that distressed them was how one of them could fight the others to obtain the three remaining parts of the cube, considering that for over ten years, they had been at war without success, only resulting in the loss of many lives and vast wealth.
The second thing that troubled them even more was that none of them could enter the cave of Garul-Shammar to retrieve the Book of Wonders except a certain warrior known as Yasiran jin Taufid. Yasiran was a hunter who had spent more than half of his life in the forest with his family.
The question now was how one of them could win over the hunter Yasiran. After thorough deliberation, the kings found a solution among themselves.
The solution was that each of them would contribute their part of the cube to be assembled together, and then seek the help of the hunter Yasiran. Once he successfully retrieved the Book of Wonders, they would resume their battle, and whoever emerged victorious would claim both the book and the cube.
