[Read the Auxiliary Chap Before Reading Main Chap]


Author’s Note:
I’m a Bangladeshi writer, and this story is deeply rooted in my culture, traditions, and the world I’ve seen around me. So, you might find some elements unfamiliar or different—like our local customs, names, or spiritual references. But I promise you, this story is from the heart. It’s real. It’s raw.

The beginning might feel a bit slow because it focuses on world-building and character foundation, but that’s because I want you to feel what the characters feel—to grow with them before the actual “Battle for Growth” begins.

Also, a quick warning:
There’s no racism, no hatred in this story. I didn’t write this against any country or people. It’s just a fantasy tale from a fresh mind—about struggle, hope, and rising against the odds.

If you give it time, this story will give you chills, warmth, and maybe even a little pride.

Thank you for reading.

Synopsis-

In a world shaken by an unknown force, where countries no longer rise by power but by purpose, a new game begins—The Battle for Growth.”

Twenty-six years ago, a boy named Shams was born in a forgotten village in Bangladesh. From the moment he arrived, the winds shifted. Roads were built. Jobs were created. And silence was broken—when tragedy forced his first words into the world.

But this is not just his story.

When an otherworldly voice echoes inside the minds of every human, announcing the arrival of a global competition—The Battle for Growth—everything changes. The winning nation will receive blessings once thought impossible: enhanced intelligence in future generations, unmatched health, wisdom, and unimaginable prosperity.

Now, a group of eight individuals, each with their own scars, talents, and purpose, must rise from the ashes of their pasts to become the hope of a nation long underestimated.

Will they unite to lead Bangladesh to become the greatest country in the world?

Or will the shadows in their hearts turn them into the very monsters they once feared?

A story of faith, struggle, unity—and a nation's fight to grow from the bottom to the top.

Author's Note – A Message from Dreamer_From_BD


Hello, dear reader. I'm Dreamer_From_BD.


Please read this note after finishing Chapters 3, 4, and 5. I wanted to take a moment to clarify a few things that might cause confusion or raise questions in your mind.


One of the main questions I anticipate comes from Chapter 4. You might remember the moment when Selina asked Shurjo, "After getting freedom, will we finally be able to eat to our hearts' content?"


Then, in Chapter 5, Kazim mentioned that there was a time when they had wealth—especially when Mosharrof served in the Pakistan army. So naturally, some of you might be wondering: If they once had wealth, why would Selina ask such a question?


Yes, it's true that when Mosharrof was part of the Pakistan army, the family lived a comfortable and well-off life. But that changed the day he decided to leave the army and join the Muktibahini—the freedom fighters. The wealth they once had slowly vanished. There was no stable income, no support, and their standard of living dropped drastically. Every day became a struggle. Selina's words reflected the weight of that sacrifice—the hope that maybe, just maybe, after independence, they could eat in peace again.


Another question you might be wondering is: Why didn't the Hanadar Bahini—the Pakistan army—ever come to Mosharrof's house searching for his family, knowing he had switched sides?


The answer is simple. When Mosharrof first joined the Pakistan army, he declared that he had no family. It was a conscious decision—he knew the risks of the path he was taking. He did it to protect his loved ones in case anything went wrong later, especially when he eventually turned against that very army for the sake of his homeland.


Sorry—yes, I know this part of the explanation probably should've been shown in the main chapters themselves. It was my mistake, and I sincerely apologize for not including it there.


Thank you so much for continuing this journey with me.
