William and his college class are ripped from Earth and thrown into Aethel, a world on the brink of collapse.  Everyone gains incredible magical powers – except William.  Mocked and underestimated, he's an outcast among heroes.  

But William has a secret: an SSS-ranked skill that lets him travel to Aethel's past.  Learning lost magic from ancient masters, he'll surpass his classmates and become the true savior Aethel needs. But can he overcome the dangers of the past and present to forge his own destiny?

While others studied about the first mage, William could go back in time and see the first mage himself! While others dreamed of seeing a dragon, William could go back in time, hatch a legendary dragon egg and turn it into his puppy. While others used common materials to craft their items, William could go back in time and mine materials that weren't find anywhere in Aethel anymore.

Is it unfair? Perhaps, but William was not the type of person to not use the powers the universe gave him.

William pressed onward, the echoing shouts of his pursuers spurring him forward. He couldn't risk a confrontation, not here, not now. He needed time, space, and a plan.

As he navigated the twisting passages, Jinra's words echoed in his mind.

'If I keep going, I should reach the labyrinth...'

The final obstacle. A sprawling maze designed to confound and disorient any who dared seek Jinra's treasure. Even with the cryptic clues from the message, William had no clear path, no map to guide him through the intricate network of corridors.

Jinra had offered hints, whispers of what to expect, how to orient himself within the labyrinth. It was something, better than nothing, but still...

Suddenly, figures appeared ahead, rounding a corner with surprising speed. The fish-men and pirates! They were closer than he thought.

"Halt!" a pirate roared, his voice ragged and threatening.
