5000 years ago, there was a young magician named Asley who struggled with his lack of magical talent and faced ridicule from his academy peers. Feeling isolated, he chose to become a hermit researcher along with his Siberian husky companion Pochi. During an experiment, he accidentally created the eternal dew, granting himself and Pochi immortality. After thousands of years, Asley decided to venture outside and embark on a journey where he discovered his exceptional abilities in magicraft, which had long been forgotten. With no clear goal in mind, he explored the world and evolved as he encountered new companions. However, during his travels, Asley uncovered signs of looming threats to the new world he was growing fond of. The revival of demon kings was imminent, and people's declining faith in holy heroes had left mankind vulnerable to this danger.
