Partum. A world full mana and resources that allow its people and creatures to thrive. The people of the world; who are human, elves, beastmen, lightbornes, darkbornes, slowly began to make settlements in other areas like islands, archipelago, and lands unclaimed. The creatures of the world thrive off the ecosystem that they live on and live happily. As the years go by the people of the world began learning new things about the world; magic, alchemy, construction, and magic-based technology. Their knowledge of it grew and grew, to the point of finding new things that they didn't know or couldn't figure out. One of those many discoveries was the existence of mana crystals know as Erus.

Erus is mana crystals that holds a massive amount of mana. When the people first saw one, they believe it to be a power source that they can utilize. However, when they tried to mine it, the Erus began to glow and fight back with a mana-like wave. When the people recover they notice the Erus created smaller crystals from the surrounding area. The people took those instead and made clear is to not to mess with the Erus without warning. With the mana crystals in hand, the people of the world began to create more and more thing to learn about their world. Their creations grew where small settlement/villages became full towns/cities. These town/cities are on four different continents: Aron the radiant continent, Geist and Eis the snowy continent and skylofts, Terrion the rocky sand continent, and Sylthro and Kumonohana the windy forest continent and skylofts. The use of technology grew and expanded to the point where magic can be fully used by this technology. As many believe that world progression was a good thing. However, they're those who think otherwise and those people are The World of Old.

The World of Old is an extremist group of individuals that would like no better than to destroy the technology and return the people to the times of traditions. The World of Old has done many crimes for the sake of their goals. Some of the crimes included: destruction, kidnapping, assault, burglary, and so on. This group prides itself of using magic and combat of the old way. Apart from attacking people, they will also try to convert others onto their side either through preachers or the special groups they hold in secret. Because of these groups, the conflict of many towns and cities began to become rampant. The conflict is also being caused by another group, a group of elitist known as Regius. Regius activities are not as destructive as The Word of Old but the damage they have caused can be just as bad as them. This group prides themselves and technology beyond all else. They also believe that only the ones who are rich and/or worthy should use this technology. They mainly attack people of lower-class than themselves either to prove a point or for fun. Thanks to this group, conflict grew more and more every day to the point where soldiers would sometimes be overwhelmed. To stop this, the leaders of each continent started a new system of combat and authority. The system is known as Duels and the authorities are Meisters.

Duels are a combat system that would close off the area of combat from the rest of the surrounding area with a barricade/barrier. The duels can either one on one or as many as they want as long as both parties agree. To make sure that underhanded tactics will not be used, a specialize fighter known as a Meister will overlook the battle like a judge. Meisters are the continent's champion/hero who has learned power and techniques beyond mortal understanding. A Meister main job is to protect the continent from overall danger. In the event multiple duels or a massive attack on the continents, Meister will take care of the worst-case and let the other officials take care of the rest.

As years pass by it would seem like things have slightly died down a bit. However, a new threat was looming over the horizon. Like the year they have gone by, the creatures of the world had been mutated into monsters thanks to certain elements like different environments, mana flow, and mana change thanks to the Erus. Not all of the creature have become monsters but these monster still now exist. These monster are known as Ova and they are known to be dangerous to other creature as much as the people. Because of this attacks, many militaries are in need of fighters so they start recruiting young teen and adults for the fight against the conflict and beasts.

Of this story, we'll follow the tale of a young boy, who want to see the world, and his many adventures through the world of Partum.
