Clearly you are, as you can't even know basic boot drive priority, mbr, gpt, legacy and uefi boot mode, etc etc

Install grub.

If you are running SSD you have to load NVME. Arch is not really that easy

If HDD, use testdisk. It's in rescatux iirc. Should recover your partitions.

Next time don't be retarded.
