Summary of Book 1:
The story began with Nathan Fox, an eighteen year old magician with average talent in magic, as he goes to the Arcane Academy, the biggest academy for magicians on the continent and the Republic of Arcania. Nathan Fox is a true immortal who cannot die no matter how much harm is done to him, as his body will always revert back to how it was prior to any damage he takes, whether mental, physical, or magical. Which, if this were to be found out by any magicians other than those already in the know, would get him captured and experimented on immediately.
However, thanks to him becoming a true immortal thanks to two Class S magicians fighting each other and damaging reality itself, causing reality to alter his body with natural mana, it is impossible for someone to figure out how to make themselves immortal like him. But since the magicians of the continent are too stubborn, and their greatest weakness is old age, none of them would care about that. They would still try to experiment on him regardless of their chance to find a way to make themselves immortal.
Nathan quickly began to navigate his way through his first semester at the Academy, making some new friends along the way along with meeting some instructors who were told by his doctor, a powerful psychopath within the Republic in his own right, to look after him and teach him. A doctor who is experimenting on Nathan in order to find out how he became immortal in the first place so that he can replicate the process.
During his time in the Academy, Nathan learns how to use spells and how to fight with weapons. And his instructor Leo makes up an excuse for his immortality that will only last for so long, blaming it on an incredibly powerful fire magic spell. Additionally, he uses his immortality to his advantage to learn spells faster and better than he would’ve before. To push himself through pain and torture caused by the backlash of spells failing over and over again as he masters them.
But he is slowly beginning to gather more attention from those in higher positions, and the last book left off on his best friend Amelia’s aunt directly telling him to participate in the duels so that he can qualify for a position in the special class and the advantages soon to be added to the Academy by the Council.
Leaving him in an awkward position as it could easily lead to his immortality getting out.
Summary of Book 2:
The second book of the series continues with Nathan’s school life as he carefully fights in duels, making sure to be careful of anyone finding out about his immortality. But that becomes less important as the war breaks out and he’s sent to the frontlines as a form of internship. There he ends up being sent to the Kingdom of the Fallen by the doctor, who sends him there so that he can avoid drawing any more attention from the higher ups of the Republic than he already was. All while his friends and allies unaware of his immortality are convinced that he is dead.
After arriving at the Kingdom of the Fallen, he soon finds himself living in a dark treant where he meets another Class S magician in the form of a talking skeleton. He spends his days practicing and training his mana arcs for a while until the Class S magician breaks free from the cell he was in and experiments on Nathan just like the doctor, turning him into a vampire through the use of a mutagen. One that uses a combination of space, poison, time, and death mana so that it can alter his space and time infused body.
And thanks to becoming a vampire, Nathan gains supernatural strength and senses, but also a bloodthirst that comes along with it. Even if his bloodthirst doesn’t grow thanks to his immortality.
All of which serve to distance Nathan from his humanity. Slowly drawing him away from normalcy and into a new mindset entirely.
The skeleton then proceeds to let him go and even defends him from the doctor’s attempts to search for him after realizing what had happened.
Leaving Nathan on his own to deal with the surviving natives of the Kingdom of the Fallen, who often attack him, proving just how dangerous the kingdom is. However, they soon realize the uniqueness of Nathan’s body other than just his vampire nature as many of them join together to eliminate him completely.
Only to find him completely restoring himself even after every last atom of his body is annihilated.
Nathan then wipes out the magicians who attacked him and learns of the Barons who reign over the outer ring of the Kingdom before he returns to his experiments and training within his caverns.
Summary of Book 3:
The third book of the series continues as Nathan builds himself a place within the Kingdom of the Fallen. A place known as the Undying Caverns.
He grows into his powers as a pseudo-vampire-immortal, learns how to control both death magic and fire magic, and gains a new companion along the way. A phoenix companion named Incendia. A mythical creature from the past.
But unlike other phoenixes from her time, Incendia was experimented on and turned into an immortal creature.
Just like Nathan.
Finally granting him a companion to experience his years alongside. One who will never die just like him and will always live on with him.
After growing his reputation some more and studying magic while expanding his mana arcs, Nathan takes to the battlefield. Fighting against the various nobles of the Kingdom of the Fallen in order to claim his place and defend his new territory.
As the newly appointed Prince of the Kingdom of the Fallen.
And throughout all of this, Nathan continues to lose touch with his humanity. Growing more and more distant from other people and reality itself as pain and death turn into naught but his imagination.
And after two long and grueling victories against various barons and baronesses, Nathan is left facing an unexpected challenge.
A war declared between the mainland nations and the Kingdom of the Fallen.
Sparking the beginning of the second Continental War and forcing the nobles and Nathan to work together temporarily.
Summary of Book 4:
The fourth book of the series continues as the second Continental War begins. Drawing every nation of the continents into a conflict with each other with the mainland continents allying against the Kingdom of the Fallen and its ally Natra. In a conflict that is decided upon through one of two methods.
The elimination of forces from the nation, or the elimination or capture of the nation’s Class S magician leader.
But things rapidly begin to go wrong for the allied nations as their alliance quickly crumbles one nation after another.
Some of the nations completely betray the alliance and are later absorbed into the Kingdom of the Fallen when their Class S magician is slain, while others betray the alliance and their own leaders to sell their leader out to the kingdom like the Republic.
One nation after another falls under the control of the Kingdom of the Fallen as numerous Class S magicians, including the Chairman of the Republic, are killed. All the way until all the conquered nations join hand with the Kingdom of the Fallen for two goals.
To finish the war by defeating the last remaining nation of the alliance, the Collective Kingdoms.
And to slay the spatial magician who initiated the war in the first place.
The doctor.
Leaving the book off as the hunt for the doctor begins, with numerous other powers from outside of the abandoned continents begin sticking their noses into the abandoned continents affairs.
