This intern or battle experience was for time period of two years. By that time, I would come home that is the Royal Palace I would be a young man of age 14 with a proper battle experience. As I made my way back to the palace after two years, the experience of the battlefield had transformed me. My aura bore the weight of the bloodshed I had witnessed, and I decided to surprise my father upon my arrival. Choosing not to inform anyone, I casually rode my horse towards home. Along the way, I observed various issues in the kingdom—problems with transportation, agriculture, and inefficient workflows. This realization fueled my determination to contribute to the development of the kingdom.

Arriving at the palace, the guards halted me with skepticism, "Hey you, who are you? Why are you going in?" I smiled and replied, "Don't you remember me?" The guards were stunned, quickly apologizing as I waved them off, instructing them not to report my arrival to my father, as I intended to give him a surprise.

On my way to my father's chambers, I spotted a woman picking flowers. This woman was Kavya, my caretaker and mother figure. Seeing her, I smiled, approached quietly, and used my hands to blindfold her. With a playful tone, I asked, "Guess who's this?" Recognizing my voice, she smiled and replied, "Prince Arjun, you have returned." Shaking my head in a somewhat helpless manner, I touched her feet as a sign of respect and said, "Yes, I have returned, as my two-year time period was completed two months back."

We conversed for a few minutes, and then I proceeded to meet my father. Upon entering my father's royal room, he expressed great joy at seeing me. In a spontaneous gesture, he embraced me, momentarily disregarding his royal status. Just like any ordinary father, he hugged me, and I reciprocated. It was an emotional moment, a family reunion of just father and son—no mother, but we felt complete as a family.

Subsequently, I engaged in conversation with him, providing a summary of my battlefield experiences. He expressed pride in my achievements. Following this, I broached the topic of my future aspirations, not in the context of " father and son " but as "King and Prince." He seemed perplexed, given that other princes were expected to spend the remaining four years until the age of 18 solely in training, practice, and leisure. Eighteen was the age when the next heir is introduced to the world.

He mentioned that he would discuss this further in the next royal meeting scheduled for tomorrow morning. After our conversation, I departed and began formulating plans to elaborate on my ideas during the upcoming meeting.

To begin, I aim to focus on the development of roads and the implementation of a cost-effective paper-making technique. In this era, paper is exceptionally expensive. If manufactured efficiently, it could lead to increased trade with our kingdom, ultimately contributing to its wealth.
