3000 years ago, there was a great battle with a hero party against the demon king and his subordinates, or also known as the dark sages, and Will is one of them. He is the shadow sage among the dark sages. He mastered shadow magic and he is the first ever human to pursue black magic because he sought black magic to be more interesting rather than modern magic. He is next to the demon king when it come to ancient magic. Ancient magic are powerful, destructive spells that are similar to what a god is capable of with just a slight weaker note. Human only discovered the basic of ancient magic unlike the demon king who have bit more knowledge than anyone in the world, and Will is the second to him.
There are many hero parties who challenged the demon king, but none of them managed to reach to the castle, except one. That party wasn't any special in particular. Their party consists of a hero, two mages, a priest, a dwarf, and an elf. That party managed to reach to the demon king castle and defeated the demon king and his subordinates. And that hole on the wall was made by a powerful blast from one of the mage that sent Will out of the castle and caused a time distortion which sent Will to 3000 years from the past.
Now gaining his memory back, he decided to leave the demon king continent a travel the world.As a dark sage, he wasn't allowed to leave the demon king continent and must stay by the demon king side. Now that the demon king is dead, he is able to do so.As he is about to travel out of the demon king continent, he then met a despaired hero who was heavily injured and is surrounded by beast. Despite being a dark sage, he ask the beast to leave which they obeyed and he kneel down to the injured hero. Maybe because he is still a human thats why he is able to do so , or he is not under the influence of the demon king? he then heal the hero and carry him up. The hero was shocked.
Hero:" such powerful healing magic, you must be a powerful mage. Please forgive me for my insolence and thank you."
Will didn't say much and nodded.
Hero:" You must be hungry from traveling in the demon king continent, how about I treat you a meal as a thanks"
Will nodded and they left the demon king continent. Beside the demon king continent is the Hiden continent. It is own by the kingdom of Hiden since the early age. Will look around as the hero chuckled. They stop by a tavern inside the capital of Hiden. The hero treat Will into a meal. As they eat,
hero:" My name is Raye Winston. I just became a hero few weeks ago, what's your name sir?"
Will:" My name is Will Beuratt...."
Raye:" you don't seem to trust me huh"
Raye:"You know, usually researcher are scared of traveling into the demon king continent despite that he is already dead"
Will didn't react when Raye mention the demon king.In fact he doesn't even care about the demon king death.
suddenly, everyone in and outside the tavern started cheering and celebrating about something.
Raye:"oh yeah, I have forgotten today is the very day that the legendary hero party defeated the demon king 3000 years ago"
They called that party of hero legendary that they defeated the demon king? Will thought to himself.
Raye:"everyone know about the legendary hero party that defeated the demon king, it was said that the hero use his iconic sword that was fuse with dragon scale and slice that demon king which led to his demise"
After the meal, they both part way and say their goodbye.
