Fate, oh unpredictable mistress! One moment, everything falls perfectly into place, and in the blink of an eye, it all crumbles to pieces.

So capricious, yet tantalizingly close... So magnificent, yet tinged with terror...

So... Uh...

Doubtful...?

... Alright, I got nothing.

I'll go straight to the point.

One day, I was abducted by some guys who called themselves the "Magic Council" and got told that I was selected to become some kind of magician that would connect the world of magicians with another new world amongst the infinite cosmos.

Something like that. I honestly didn't quite catch what those guys were rambling about.

I was more busy trying to make clear my refusal about getting involved in whatever weird things those guys were planning.

Though, in the end, they didn't even hear me out and decided everything on their own.

After that, I was transported to the middle of a vast ocean, in what they told me was a new world.

I thought I was gonna die drowning in the middle of the sea at that moment. But luckily for me, there were these guys who called themselves Straw-hat pirates that saved me and brought me into their ship.

What a nice bunch.

Oh, and I forgot to mention it, but now I can do magic.

Pretty neat, huh?
