Ryo is immediately pitted against the wild lands he winds up in and the slew of deadly monsters that call the remote subcontinent home.
Youโd think heโd forget about taking it easy when heโs stuck fighting for his life, but lucky for Ryo, heโs naturally optimistic, clever, and blessed with the hidden โEternal Youthโ trait. Twenty years pass in the blink of an eye, and each encounter along the way pushes him one step closer to the pinnacle of human magic. Little does he realize thatโs only the opening chapter of his tale. A fateful meeting soon thrusts Ryo to the forefront of history, forever changing the course of his life…
Thus begins the adventures of the strongest water magician the world has ever seenโwho also likes to do things at his own pace!
