Everyone in the crowd was happy and excited. They knew that with Vijay Deva Raya as their king, the empire would continue to grow and prosper.

The coronation of Vijay Deva Raya was a special moment in the history of the Vijayanagara Empire. It marked the beginning of a new era, filled with hope and dreams for a bright future.

A few days had passed since Vijay's coronation, which had left him feeling overwhelmed. But as the days went by, he started experiencing intense headaches and bouts of dizziness.

Opening his eyes groggily, Vijay found Aunt Mina by his side, her face filled with concern. "Are you alright, Your Majesty?" she asked, worriedly.

Feeling a bit disoriented, Vijay reassured her, "I'm okay, Aunt. It might just be the stress from the coronation taking its toll on me."

Aunt Mina gently wiped the sweat from his face and hurriedly left the room to fetch a doctor. "Please lie down, Your Highness. I'll go get a doctor," she urged.

As Vijay watched her leave, he reflected on the real reason behind his sudden fainting spells. It was the awakening of his extraordinary ability, which he called his "golden finger." Now, he had the incredible power to remember all the technological knowledge from his past life and share it with others through inspiration and ideas. It was a precious gift that would save him from explaining every change he planned to make.

But this newfound ability came at a cost. It drained his energy and left him feeling depleted of nutrients. It seemed his appetite would become insatiable, requiring him to eat significantly more.

Lost in thought, Vijay was startled by the sound of the door clicking open. The doctor entered the room and conducted a thorough examination. To his surprise, the doctor gave an unexpected diagnosis.

"Your Majesty, you have a condition called Madhumeha, (aka diabetes in 17th century india). It's crucial that you eat well, as it can be life-threatening if not properly managed."

Observing Aunt Mina's worried expression, Vijay reassured her, "Don't worry, Aunt. I'll be fine."

Aunt Mina's face showed deep concern as she pleaded, "Please take care, Your Majesty. You are the last remaining member of the Raya family, and the kingdom would be in chaos if something were to happen to you."

Vijay felt touched by her care but also uncomfortable with the "Your Majesty" address. at first, he felt it was novel, but now he is sick of it ."You don't have to call me that. Just call me Vijay, like you always have. After all, you practically raised me," he implored.

Unfortunately, Aunt Mina firmly responded, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but as the king of the country, it's important to show respect. I must refrain from such familiarity."

Several days had passed since his awakening, and Vijay now felt well-rested. He decided to leave his room and head to the office, where he could delve into the kingdom's affairs and its people.

"Long live Your Majesty!" Butler Ravichandra greeted him with a deep bow.

"Please, Uncle Ravi, no need for formalities between us," Vijay requested, tired of the constant ceremonial treatment.

Uncle Ravi remained dedicated to his role. "You are the king of this empire now, Your Highness. Your position deserves the utmost respect," he replied.

Hearing those familiar words, Vijay sighed and gave up, "Very well, Uncle Ravi. Please provide me with detailed information about the kingdom and its people."

The butler nodded and swiftly fetched the ledger and census books, ready to assist Vijay in exploring the kingdom's affairs.
