Early Years

The Beginning After the End Book 1

By TurtleMe

The remastered and definitive edition of this beloved Progression Fantasy Series by award-winning author, Turtleme.

A King Reborn. A World Remade. His Destiny is Just Beginning.


King Grey had it all: unrivaled power, wealth, and prestige. In a world where personal strength decided the throne, he was the uncontested sovereign.

But when his violent, ambition-driven life ends abruptly, he finds himself in an unimaginable position: reborn as a crying infant in a strange new world.

This new existence is steeped in powerful, ambient magic—mana—unlike the internal life force of his former world. But Arthur Leywin is no ordinary baby; he retains the consciousness, cunning, and tactical genius of his adult kingly self. He refuses to wait for destiny.

Utilizing the knowledge gained from his previous life as a warrior and ruler, he begins training to cultivate mana years before any normal child should, guaranteeing himself a phenomenal head start.

His premature awakening at the age of three leads to an unprecedented explosion, confirming his genius. But Arthur’s power is more complex than simple genius. He possesses the capability to manipulate all four basic elements, marking him as a mythical quadra-elemental mage.

Embark on Arthur’s power progression journey—from his rebirth and to his experiences as an adventurer, and later as a student at a magical academy. The Beginning After the End, also a hit webcomic and anime on crunchyroll, has captivated readers worldwide.

Experience this re-edited and remastered definitive edition now in Kindle Unlimited for the first time ever!
