How about watching the 13th episode about your question on Kings,
Forsaken_Infinity?
Because, you know, the title of said 13th episode is "
King".

This whole kings business was never really explained for instance. The most we got was a flashback that didn't really do anything other than present two hitherto irrelevant characters and some sort of a back story that didn't actually do anything in terms of providing useful information. There was this German scientist who did some experiment, his sister who he was in love with died and this Japanese soldier who was visiting witnessed the bombing of Dresden. Apparently the German guy essentially gave his life up while the Japanese soldier somehow ended up being the highest authority in Japan.

Rewatch this series like you're watching a mystery anime and don't leave out the most minor of details as "irrelevant". Most of the people who complain about the plot as "confusing to watch" made their mistake by not focusing on the details. Although the action is advertised more, the mystery half of the series shouldn't be forgotten.
From what I remembered in that scene, the stone is the source of powers, and Adolf K. Weissman is the person who was able to use these powers and transfer them to lifeforms, thus making him the originator of the Kings-and-Clansmen system.

Meanwhile we have a random aggressive punk become a king in the duration of another flashback where some kid chases him around trying to be his squire. He somehow cares for his men because lo and behold he suddenly has a loli by his side.

Bla bla. If it works for you, good for you. As far as I am concerned, this is bullshit and a random hodgepodge of ideas thrown into a melting pot.

K's not that confusing, really. (This is coming from someone who enjoyed Horizon, though.
)
