After being secluded for his entire life, a boy called Aladdin travels the world until he meets Alibaba Saluja, a young man aiming to one day explore the nearby dungeon "Amon" and claim its treasures. Aladdin and Alibaba eventually become friends, and conquer Amon together, despite facing the opposition of the ruthless Jamil and his slave warriors, with only Alibaba, Aladdin and Morgiana, the only survivor of Jamil's party, escaping with their lives. For some reason, Aladdin ends up teleported to a distant land, far away from the others, where he learns that he is a "Magi", a rare kind of magician able to channel the energy of life around him into power. Having no news of his friend, Alibaba uses the treasure he obtained in Amon to free all slaves in the city, including Morgiana and returns to Balbadd, his homeland. After having their own adventures in separate countries, Aladdin and Morgiana end up reuniting with Alibaba in Balbadd where they learn that he has joined the "Fog Troupe", a cadre of thieves opposing the tyrannical rule of King Abhmad, who is Alibaba's older half-brother. Helped by Aladdin, Morgiana and Sinbad, a famous king of the island country of Sindria, Alibaba manages to have the monarchy dissolved and establishes a republic in Balbadd. However, Balbadd ends up annexed to the Kou Empire, a powerful Eastern nation that plans to conquer the entire world.
Following the events in Balbadd, Aladdin, Alibaba and Morgiana are brought to Sindria, where they train under members of Sinbad's household to increase their abilities and help him with his mission to stop the mysterious organization of "Al Sarmen" that works in the shadows to spread chaos throughout the world for yet unexplained reasons. The trio ends up befriending Hakuryuu Ren, a prince of the Kou Empire visiting Sindria and whom they help to conquer the dungeon "Zagan". After confronting some members of Al Sarmen, Aladdin and his friends go separate ways for personal reasons. Aladdin enrolls in the Magnostadt Academy to study magic, Alibaba leaves to improve his swordsmanship with the Yambala Gladiators in the Reim Empire, Hakuryuu returns to the Kou Empire, and Morgiana departs to the Dark Continent to fulfill her dream of visiting her homeland, each promising to later return and rejoin together in the future.
