The story takes place in the Secret Owl Woodlands region, a deep forest near the border of the Argos Kingdom and Malaga Kingdom.

Most of the forest is covered in owlwood trees, which are the hardest in the world.

Even with an Aura sword, it's difficult to cut them beyond the hardness of iron steel or any other materials. As a result, humans tend to avoid the forest, as it's home to many deadly beasts.

In this forest, a young boy named Arthur Atlas and a girl named Lily Malaga are walking, both tired and pale, as they haven't had food or water for a few days.

Arthur is of average height with a handsome face and golden hair, dressed like a mage, while Lily has a strong body with the same type of golden hair, looking like a swordswoman.

Arthur suggests killing a beast for food, but Lily reminds him that every beast in the forest is poisonous.

They would only be risking their lives by attempting to eat anything there. Arthur blames Lily for losing all their money and food in a gambling game,

but Lily insists that they accepted the commission in the forest as warriors. Arthur thinks to himself that they aren't real warriors.

Lily describes the commission as being for Beerr, a monster that looks like a giant beer with a height of 10 meters, large jaws, and hard-to-cut skin. Arthur asks if he's seeing a fox, a general fox that can be dangerous in large groups. The Foxes appear and surround them, and both Arthur and Lily realize they're in trouble. They're both weak from hunger and thirst, but they prepare to fight.

As the Foxxes attack, Arthur and Lily fight back, but they quickly become injured and exhausted. Arthur runs out of mana, and Lily is left to defend herself.

Just when it seems like all hope is lost, a shield appears to protect them from the Foxxes, and a powerful fire burns all of them
