I awoke to find I’d been reborn as Albert von Kronstadt—the arrogant, minor villain from Arcana Academia fated for an early death. In the game, Albert was a weak, conceited mage. The truth? He’s the last heir to an ancient magical bloodline, a heterochromatic genius of immense latent talent. And this ‘Ancient Magic’ was the original game’s ultimate secret. Master it, and any “death flag” becomes meaningless! As I plunge into my research, gaining unparalleled strength, my actions send shockwaves through the story’s main cast: Princess Ariana, commoner Luna, Princess Sylvia, and hero-to-be Leon. Yet such forbidden power attracts both light and shadow. This is the story of how a single-minded pursuit of Ancient Magic begins to rewrite the destiny of the world.
