When he became old enough he was sent in the military, but he was so untalanted he couldn't progress anywhere. He tried very hard to get stronger, but it was impossible as he had no talent
Even a person who just picked up a sword and got basic soldier training could surpass him in a year.
But as Arcan fated into obscurity and Armon rose to fame the government got scared of Armon, he was too big a threat. He worked alone, without any way to restrain or use him. But when he went into the demon realm it was they made him look like an enemy to the world.
The king also decided make an announcement that Armon joined hands with the 5th demon king. He said he would give 10 million gold to whomever manages to kill him.
He also sent over 5 battalions to kill him. Nobody in politics thought this was necessary. It was overkill.
The soldiers thought so too.
They said "He is only human, how can he handle 5 battalions?"
"Why did the king send so many of use just to kill a guy?"
"This gonna be an easy payday"
Oh how wrong were all of them.
