On the continent of Leunders, a fragile peace has reigned for centuries between the humanoids blessed by light gods (humans, elves, dwarves) and the powerful, dark-blessed demons. This peace ends brutally in the year 2826 when a new demon king launches the "Great Invasion." Demon armies mercilessly overrun humanoid nations, including the mighty Gargan Empire in 2827. In their desperation, the last remaining humanoid forces launch a hopeless attack on the main demon army, while a special unit, including Kyle and his sword Sildonia, is tasked with killing the demon king in his fortress. After heavy losses and the sacrifice of Sildonia, Kyle alone succeeds in destroying the demon king with a powerful spell.

Kyle, the last survivor and filled with grief over the loss of his beloved Liese, his family, and his world, awaits his death. Instead, he unexpectedly finds himself back in his room three years in the past, on May 24, 2823, his birthday. He is younger, unharmed, and everyone, including Liese and his friend Theron, is alive. The city is intact. Kyle can hardly believe the reality of this return and suspects a magical artifact as the cause. A conversation with his mother, the archmage Ceraia, confirms that time travel is theoretically possible but practically impossible—except with the legendary "Heart of the Divine Dragon," missing for over a thousand years, as a catalyst for unimaginable amounts of magic.

Kyle realizes he has returned three years before the devastating invasion that destroyed his hometown and claimed Liese's life. He is the only one who knows of the coming catastrophe. With the firm resolve to prevent this future at all costs and change the fate of the world, he begins to record his knowledge of future events. He knows his current strength is insufficient and his warnings would go unheard. Kyle searches for a way to prepare.
