Nero Kira, head of the Kira Royal Family, stands as the single most powerful human mage in existence, born with mana so dense it seared through everything and everyone in his path from the moment of his birth. Revered, feared, and envied by nobles and commoners alike, his magic prowess is unparalleled, a force of nature said to rival that of the First Wizard King. Yet, despite his strength, Nero’s life is marked by devastating failures that haunt his every step. He was once blessed with a love as deep as his power—a woman named Richita, and a son named Asta. Yet Nero’s heart-wrenching failure began when he couldn’t protect her from the cruel fate that awaited her. Unable to save her, he was driven to despair as the very world he commanded seemed to slip through his fingers. His power had proven meaningless against the brutal truth: he could not save the one he cherished most. The failure intensified when he confronted the one who took her from him, only to find himself unable to deliver vengeance. The emptiness left by Richita's absence grew deeper, and he was forced to carry on with a broken heart and a fractured soul. But fate dealt Nero a final, shattering blow when fragments of memories from another life suddenly surfaced. He recalled another existence, a mundane yet piercingly clear memory of reading a story called Black Clover. His past life’s memories revealed a cruel twist—he had read of this world, of his life, of the very people and events he was now entangled in. Realizing he was living within a story he’d once read, Nero saw that, in this world, his fate and failures were already written. Powerless to change his past mistakes, yet burdened by the knowledge of what was to come, he is now forced to embark on a path detested by most.
