As an entrepeuner, Aleksandr, promoted many of his invention, the fusion cells and fusion cores, that could replace traditional cells and batteries, an advanced form of portable laptop, that is as powerful as a supercomputer, an advanced smartphone with better processing power and memory, the new type of electronic vehicles, eco-friendly variant of chemical fetilizers and pesticides, the quick working healing products and medicines, a cure to all type of cancer, smart air conditioner, superior refridgerators, new weapons and defense structures for military, and so on, his action had considerably improve the economy, industry and military of Russia.

Sadly as if luck was not in Aleksandr's side, he accidently made a small mistake resulting in a lab explosion that lead to his death. Right after the explosion, the pain he felt not only suddenly disappeared but also his body felt strange.

 "Huh? This is strange, why I no longer feel any pain? My body is acting strange? I cannot open my eyes.

While Aleksandr was confused a voice came.

"Congratulations, for a healthy baby boy, your majesty"

"Yes, thank you"

"Uhooa uhooa uuu uyoa (what are they saying? What's this! Why my voice that of baby?)"

That's right, Aleksandr is reborn as a member of royal family.

"My queen, have thought what to name your son"

"How about Alexander"

"That's a nice name"

"Uhoooa uhooa (Alexander? Isn't this name resembled my original name Aleksandr?"

The infant Aleksandr or rather Alexander, is then dipped in water tub. Alexander began to wonder.

 "*Sigh* I didn't expect that an event like the ones, happen in those isekai mangas would happen to me in real life, I seems to have reborn in another world, and god knows what kind of world this is"

5 years passed since, Alexander's rebirth, Alexander learned many things about this world, first of all he is reborn in the nation known as Kingdom of Ivan, and he is now Alexander Ivan, the 3rd prince and 4th child of the current ruler. The nation is seems to be a countryside kingom surrounded by forest that is inhabitated by both wild animals and dangerous monster, of course, there was never a monster tidal wave appeared here, so, everyone believed this place to be safe regardless of the presence of this forest, however, Alexander doubted wheather they are truely safe or not. Also, this world seems to have magic, but sadly Alexander himself seems to possess less magical affinity, so path of sorcerer is blocked for him, as the result the only poath he can walk, is the path of magic warrior and alchemist. Suprisingly he decided to chose both, despite his parent's and sibling's claim that he cannot fully master either of them, if he decides to choose both, but perhaps, since, he was a scientist in his past, he just at age of 5, had solved the problem of agriculture by creating manure and magical fertilizers, he improved potion making from alchemy, using his knowledge of chemistry from past life, developed new medicines that can cure the disease that were previously believed to be incurable as well as improving the existing ones, he also pioneered new metallurgical process, that improved blacksmithing, resulting in creation of better armors, weapons and other stuffs. In the same time he quickly mastered the magic swordmanship, and soon, when he the age of 8, he become an accomplished magic swordmaster, becoming a prodigy in magic and swordmanship, while at the same time being a prodigy in alchemy. Because of this Alexander is seen as prodigy who will bring honor to the royal family.

Alexander found that alchemy in world is technically same as magic in his former world, except that it also include the study related to magic and supernatural, something that is often ignored for the sake of scientific advancement. Alexander himself in his believe magic and supernatural to be nothing more than a myth, that serves as an obstacle to science, but in this world where magic existed, magic and supernatural are also considered a field in science. It is unknown whether it is due to his excitement to learn something new or due to the fact that in this world mystic study is also the part of science, he decided to learn this new field of study as well, as the result of his quirk for learning everything new that existed from his past life coming with him.

Soon, Alexander become 15 years old, now he is a legendary figure among both magic warriors and alchemists, his life had also being peaceful. Seeing the kingdom growing and becoming more prosperous, he hoped that his peaceful and happy days will continue like this, but he didn't know that a tragedy is soon bound to happen. He is yet to know this.
