In X679, a six-year-old Mavis lives in the village as a servant of the Red Lizard guild following the deaths of her parents. One day, the guild is destroyed in a turf war with the rival guild Blue Skull. Mavis rescues Zera, the daughter of Red Lizard's master Zeeself, and escapes into the forest with her; touched by her kindness, Zera offers her friendship to Mavis before collapsing.

Mavis meets Yuri as he searches the island for the Sirius Orb, which is the island's cherished relic. Yuri engages Mavis in a game of wits over the ownership of the treasure, but Mavis uses her tactical knowledge and loopholes in the game's rules to beat him.

She becomes trapped in a chamber with a monstrous fish, but Yuri and Warrod are alerted to her whereabouts and come to her rescue.

After Precht saves a boy at risk of being crushed by a rotting tree, he and Mavis are directed to a bar that they quickly discover to be a branch of Blue Skull.

Mavis and the treasure hunters discuss what to do with the Sirius Orb once they find it, with Mavis certain that Yuri will relinquish the treasure; Zera expresses her distrust of the hunters, resolving to learn magic and protect Mavis.

Oblivious to his identity as the infamous dark wizard, Mavis takes sympathy on him when she fathoms that he is cursed with black magic that kills everything around him against his will. After Mavis presents him a display of illusory animals in a show of friendship, Zeref agrees on a whim to assist her and her friends' fight against Blue Skull by teaching them magic. Over time, Yuri and Precht prove themselves naturally adept at using magic for combat, while Warrod discovers his talents are supportive and non-combative.

While Mavis contemplates what to do next, the people of Magnolia express their own anxiety for the future, as Blue Skull's regime had provided a certain degree of stability.
