Three and a half years ago, a sudden appearance of demons across the world had increased the tense atmosphere enveloping the world. Lots of destructions were made because of their appearance, but strangely, only the Grandaria kingdom that supposed to be currently unstable that managed to fend off the demons on its region.

Following the demons’ appearance, the rumors of heavenly knights from different races saving the Grandaria kingdom’s people and defeating hundreds and even thousands of demons with only dozens of them spread wide across the continent.

Some people said they’re a party of heroes.

Some people said they’re forces from heaven.

Some people said they’re legends from myths.

Some of them are magicians, some of them are warriors, and some of them are assassins.

Not long from the appearance of the rumor, more kingdoms and people admitted that they saw those heavenly knights slaying the demons in ease. Just like their sudden appearance, the demons got erased from the continent in a short time by these heavenly knights, leaving the demons no time to wreak more havoc. But that’s not the end. All kingdoms got information that the demons will be back in four years, but even though the source of the information is unknown, all of them trust it, and even the holy church said that the information is valid.

On the day of the demons outbreak, Alfred, Sen, Edreale, Sera, Albus, and Peter retreat to the magic academy as Oz’s orders. After reporting to the headmaster of the magic academy, together with the sword god, Kyron, the headmaster and the sword god went to Bareland city together with some forces of the academy. When they arrived, the city, the 10,000 demons, and Oz disappears, leaving terrifying remnants of demon bones and a huge hole.

They searched the place for hours but not even a life could be found. It’s said that all of the people from the Bareland city had evacuated first, but Alfred and co knew that Oz is not amongst them. After another round of searching, Albus found a cloak that similar to their cloaks. After looking at the badge at the cloak, Oxius confirm that it’s the academy’s cloak. The old man Kyron takes the cloak and checked the remnants of mana that still left at the cloak. And with a dark expression, he confirms that he sensed that the mana remnants is Oz’s

“Kid… You have done an extraordinary deed. Even if the world didn’t know it, I do. You’ve saved a lot of lives…” Old man Kyron mutters to the cloak he’s holding while the image of the confident Oz appears in his mind. He couldn’t help but have a drop of tear dropped from the corner of his eyes.

Looking at the old warrior’s tears, the group got enveloped by sadness. After mourning for a while, they went back to the academy. Because no one really knows what happened at the Bareland city, even if they say Oz’s the one who slain all of the demons there, they don’t have any proof of it. And as if giving more wounds to the sword god’s heart, Oz’s name suddenly got labeled as a heretic that served the demons, and the queen refused the old warrior’s request to help him clean his deceased successor’s name.

After going back to the capital, the sword god had isolated himself from the public. Bringing the kids from all of the orphanages under him, they moved to a mountain far from the capital. Hearing the news, Elena and the kids cried and mourn, making the sword god’s heart pain even more.

After the absence of the sword god, as if the kingdom had lost their lucky charm, misfortunes keep on coming towards the kingdom. Even though the Grandaria kingdom had the least damage from the demons outbreak, their recovery rate is also the lowest amongst other kingdoms. Because of the demons outbreak, all kingdoms had increased their military might. And since the internal strife for power at the Grandaria kingdom still continued, the kingdom had lost its influence on the continent.

Together with the noble faction’s increase of influence, the magic academy’s special class had got removed, and the students got forced to graduate earlier. But the nobles couldn’t erase or even control the magic academy completely, because there is still the magic god, Oxius, sitting at the headmaster seat of the academy.

One year after Oz’s disappearance, Potterland kingdom’s and Gracefield kingdom’s invasion towards the Grandaria kingdom had started. Because of the noble faction’s hold of influence, they let lots of Potterland kingdom’s and Gracefield kingdom’s soldiers to garrison their soldiers inside Grandaria kingdom, making more people from both kingdoms to enters and live at Grandaria as if it had become theirs.

As the danger had become more obvious, as the kingdom’s princess, Sera tried her best to help her people that currently got discriminated inside their own kingdom. Together with Alfred’s help that had taken over the position of Red Fall’s mercenary band, they managed to stabilize the capital and the city of mercenaries.

Sen and Edreale still went to search for the culprit who burned their orphanage. Together with Peter who still hasn’t found the right time to take over the throne since it’s still full of danger.

As the years went, sparks of war got even bigger, the flame of wars almost enveloped the world. Yet where is the legendary magician when the world is in the brink of peril?

*******************************

Inside the royal palace of the great Grandaria kingdom, a royal meeting is currently on progress.

“Your majesty, please hear my advice, it’s better if we join hands with Gracefield. With their economic power, we could stabilize the kingdom easily,”

“No, your majesty. We should lean to Potterland, with their military might, we could ensure our safety for several years ahead until we stabilize our economy and our military power,”

The ministers advised the queen with their thoughts, but the queen completely knows what they mean by their advice which made her felt irritated.

(These old bastards. One seeks to satisfy their greed for wealth, while the other wants to satisfy their greed of power, is there even someone who still care with this kingdom?) (Queen)

The queen could only silently clenched her fist while facing the old and greedy nobles in front of her.

While the Grandaria kingdom is facing the threat of peril, deep inside the great magical forest of Everdeen, Aegir is watching a demonic sphere that holds a figure inside it with a complex look.

“Again, Aegir?” Slime Oz that appears from the imperial chamber’s door silently slightly startled Aegir.

“Don’t surprise me like that, Ren. I’m just staring at my old friend’s figure, that’s all,” Said Aegir as he stares at the figure inside the sphere once more.

“Don’t be like that, Aegir. Couldn’t you see that I’m standing right here?” (Slime Oz)

“It’s different, Ren. Even though you’re the clone that has a similar appearance with the real Ren, and you even have a fragment of his soul, but yet, it’s still felt different,” (Aegir)

Slime Oz sights because of his dear friend’s behavior.

“Don’t need to worry too much, I won’t lose the battle,” (Slime Oz)

“I do believe, but we’ve waited for three years. I couldn’t help but worry,” (Aegir)

“You don’t need to, stop worrying too much, worrywart. Let’s go, there are some people to save, and some demons to slay,” (Slime Oz)
