How long has it been?

It’s been a long time since I defeated the Demon King that tried to enslave all of humanity.

Who am I you asked?

Well I’m one of the heroes who stormed in on his castle on that fateful day.

I, the Sovereign of Arcana, the Master of the Elements, the Supreme Magus.

These titles all mean something to me, but in the end, I am just human.

It’s already been 200 years since the defeat of the demon king. And I, the last surviving hero of our generation, am on my last days. I feel my mana weakening, and my life force slowly decreasing. I cannot accept this fate!

Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

So now, after a few months of searching, I finally found the thing I have been looking for since I was an apprentice of the old mage teacher I had.

The tome of the Sempiternal Cantrap.

I’ve always been fascinated by the stories of my mentor, how the Arsenal Magus and other people from the first generation harnessed its power to gain longevity. And after eons, I have found the said tome.

People have been trying to find the tome, many have died, and others simply became insane from spending time on finding it. But I was not like the others, for a long time I didn’t even have any equals. For since I became the Supreme Magus, none have ever even come to my level. The wizards of old, maybe, or they could have also been at a higher understanding from me. But with this tome, now I have Millennia to practice and pierce through the veil of mystery that is Arcana.
