Lane, a servant to the legendary mage Peter, watched his master die in battle and was captured. With a sword at his throat, he cried out, "I am Peter." — an ordinary man now posing as the continent's most powerful mage.
He broke a deadly curse by chance, earning the crowd's worship. Only the mage Elena smiled coldly, setting trap after trap — fire, public interrogation, the Oracle Mirror. Each time, Lane survived.
At an underground well, he discovered it wasn't a defense array but a prison sealing a demon king. A little girl asked, "Mister, waiting for someone too?" He swallowed his hatred and repaired the seal.
An enemy envoy arrived with Peter's coffin. The master's ghost rose: "My slave… in the enemy palace?" The truth was exposed. The corpse's eyes opened. The demon king awoke.
Lane grabbed Elena's hand. "Let's work together — once."
They sealed the demon king.
She asked, "Who are you really?"
He wiped his blood. "A servant who knows how to fix magic arrays."
