Kingdom of Fiore, X782.

In this year, a sixteen-year-old boy named Zeros left the small village of Aizu and embarked on his own magical path, thus beginning a legend.

......

Loran, a small town in the south.

Pedestrians from all over the kingdom strolled along the wide streets.

On the left side of the street, a man dressed in a loose black robe walked slowly. Nearly a third of his face was covered by the robe, leaving only his face below his eyes visible.

That's why even passersby on the street couldn't see his complete appearance, but from the parts that were visible, they could roughly deduce that the man in black robes was a young boy.

Behind the man was a long object completely wrapped in black cloth. From the outside, it was impossible to tell what was inside the black cloth.

The man walked all the way to a hotel on the east side of the town.

In a room on the second floor of the hotel, the man pushed open the door and entered. He then took off the long object behind him and casually tore off his black robe, revealing a black short-sleeved shirt underneath and his complete face.

With his snow-white hair, captivating golden-purple eyes, and perfect face, even without any expression on his face, he still looked incredibly handsome. This person was none other than Zeros.

Zeros went to desk, took out a magazine, placed it on the table, and began to read it carefully.

About fifteen minutes later, Zeros turned to the last page of the magazine, snapped it shut, and tossed it onto a corner of desk, where a thick stack of similar magazines, about half an inch high, lay.

Zeros shook his head and muttered to himself, "Still no useful information. But as expected, Fairy Tail has stirred up trouble again. What an interesting guild!"

What he had just read was a very popular magic weekly published in the Kingdom of Fiore. The magic weekly mainly published news about the major magic guilds in the kingdom, allowing citizens all over the world to learn about the latest developments of those guilds as quickly as possible.

Furthermore, the latter half of this Magic Weekly also includes numerous rankings of various guild members.

These lists come in a wide variety of types, and their main purpose is to satisfy consumers' strong desire for gossip. It is precisely because of these lists that the newspaper that publishes this magical weekly has made a fortune.

It has been a month since Zeros left Aizu Village.

After leaving Aizu Village, Zeros did not rush to seek revenge on Erigor. Although Zeros's awakened magic was powerful, he was still just a novice mage who had just begun to explore magic. What he needed most now was to grow up in the shortest possible time.

From childhood to adulthood, Zeros hadn't left Aizu Village many times, and his understanding of the entire Fiore magic world was extremely limited. The only information he knew came from his father's occasional.

Now that he was all alone, it was necessary for him to know some essential information, and the fastest way to do so was through these magic weekly publications.

A week ago, Zeros arrived in Loran Town, a town that was only considered average in the Kingdom of Fiore but was somewhat famous. The first thing she did was to buy all the magic weekly magazines from the local newspaper for the past two years.

He went out and bought the latest issue of the Magic Weekly.

Through these magical weekly publications, Zeros gained a basic understanding of the magical guilds within the Kingdom of Fiore. He had a good grasp of the well-known and reputable guilds and the famous figures within them.

However, the one that impressed him the most was a guild called 'Fairy Tail'.

Zeros was impressed by this guild not only because it had many powerful mages, but also because the mages were so active. Every mission they carried out, big or small, caused some damage to the local area. As a result, the mages of this guild could be seen in almost every issue of the Magic Weekly.

In this way, it would be hard for Zeros not to have a deep impression of him!

Looking out the window at the sky, Zeros leaped onto the bed and lay down flat.

It was still daytime, and Zeros was lying in bed, not sleeping.

A bright light flashed in Zeros's eyes, and then he felt a jolt in his mind. His consciousness then entered his eyes and then entered a dark and empty space.

Inside the space, everything was shrouded in darkness. The only light came from the center of the space, where a river of golden purple

light points flowed, its countless points shimmering like a magnificent and beautiful galaxy.

Beside this golden purple river, a beam of light and shadow coalesced, which was Zeros, or more precisely, Zeros's consciousness.

This space is the Time Space that was created within his magic 'Eye of Time'.

Zeros also accidentally discovered during a cultivation session half a month ago that there was a world within his eyes. At first, he was a little at a loss when he accidentally entered this space, but after he came several times and discovered some of the functions of this space, his at a loss completely turned into excitement.

The beautiful river beside him, formed by golden purple light spots, was named the River of Time by Zeros. Whether it is related to the legendary River of Time is unknown.
