This is a time of great powers: The vast Persia, Sparta that was founded by force, Athens with its trade and business, Thebes the rising star, The ambitious Macedonia, The twin heroes of the Western Mediterranean, The rising Rome and so on.

This is an era of contention among a hundred schools of thought: Plato – the great philosopher, Antisthenes – founder of cynicism, Pythagoras – school of number, Democritus – the encyclopedia scholar, Hippocrates – the father of western medicine, Aristophanes – the great dramatist…
What will the hero bring to the world when he comes to this age as a humble mercenary through rebirth?
Good news: I traveled through time and became an emperor!
The bad news: This emperor was a puppet emperor who was manipulated by powerful officials all his life, Emperor Xian of Han, Liu Xie.
It was the third year of Jian'an. Cao Cao defeated Lu Bu and returned to the court with a victorious army. No one in the court could compete with him.
Just when Liu Xie was worried about his future, the Emperor's Friend System was awakened.
As long as the other party admits that he is Liu Xie’s friend, Liu Xie will receive a reward.
"Host adds Liu Bei as a friend and obtains the purple skill 'Tao Hui'."
"Host adds Cao Zhang as a friend and obtains the green fate 'Warrior (upgradable)'."
"Host adds Zhao Yun as a friend, and obtains the purple weapon Aoxue Panlong Spear and the orange fate 'Dragon Gallbladder'!"
On the surface, Liu Xie was a submissive puppet emperor.
Secretly, Liu Xie controlled a huge force and stirred up the world.
Several years later, Liu Xie, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, sat in the palace and looked down at Cao Cao:
"Prime Minister Cao, open your eyes and take a look.
Who has the final say in this world?"
