This newfound power surged through his veins, awakening something deep inside. Fueled by determination, he vowed to harness this strength and become the strongest warrior, just like the protagonists in his beloved manga. With each passing day, Michael trained harder, learning to wield his abilities and navigate the treacherous world around him.

Who is Aether? Wasn’t he Leonardo just a while ago? No way… the Museum, him? He can’t survive in there. The number of beings and phenomena are absurd. A mere miner couldn’t possibly— From Leonardo to Aether, he is now a tour guide. Knock. Wake up. He is here to guide you, from the highest realm to the lowest era. He knows every hole, every cult, nothing too small or too hidden in a realm brimming with mysteries. His story—his original story—has brought together hundreds of races. His vision awakening in the Museum, his eyes shining as bright as stars upon opening them—was it heaven at first? It’s more like hell now. He’s diverged from his original path, now fully entangled in the Museum, no longer just an era, a mere thought, or a simple story. He is a practical officer among the five tour guides. The eras continue to form, the copies continue shaping concepts, and the sages continue to watch over 21 realms. But his story has only just begun. From floor to floor, wonder to wonder—he is lucky to be the son. From the brightest city to the farthest reaches of the 20th realm, evolution, an impediment to the term "growth," this is Aether.

In the distant past, I was cursed by my dealings. I had been cursed to continuously live a different life from the previous one, And now it's already my 10th life. Now that it's my 10th life, I have been born as an imperial princess, namely, Amelia Noelani Francoise Elysion that is forced to marry a pathetic king of a small neighboring kingdom. My older brother is the emperor, so I guess that should be appropriate for a princess. "I love you, my dear Adelle." "Adelle is so happy." Still, I wondered if my good-for-nothing husband would die after being assassinated, either because she had cheated on his wife or for some other reason. Just when I was thinking about that, a letter came to me and had announced that my big brother and second brother had been assassinated. Then, as the next in line to the throne, the emperor will be me...or it would be passed on to my stupid husband. Any title I may inherit will go to my husband under our marriage contract. So, I have decided to not let this happen until the day I die once again. "I need to get divorced and become the emperor myself." With that, I have decided to act like a villain in order to successfully get divorced from him. I have said everything I wanted to say to my husband in order to achieve my goal of becoming the conqueror of the continent. "If you had waited one more day, the continent would've been yours. Your regrets end here, my dear Evanovich." When he realized the truth, it was already too late. Then, I spoke to my ex-husband who had his mouth agape. "I told you to keep your head straight. Didn't you understand me?"
