The Great Mage Returns After 4000 Years is the story that links someone who was known as the World’s Greatest Mage to someone who was known as the World’s Weakest Mage. Lucas Traumen was someone who was the epitome of Magecraft. Even after 4000 years, none reached the same level as him. Then there was Frey Blake, who was the complete opposite.
Lucas was part of the Golden Era of Magic. A time when magic and mana flourished. Soo much so that it threatened the Gods. To prevent him from growing further, they imprisoned him in the Great Void. For 4000 years, he waited, not being able to do anything. He could feel his mind slipping closer and closer to insanity with each passing second. The one who saved him was Frey Blake.
Due to his lack of talent in Magic, he was considered useless by his family and friends. He thought about ending it all, but he could never muster enough courage to do so. On that day, he was bullied a little too hard. Furthermore, he was disowned by his family. He wished to be reborn as someone who could leap to the skies as he ate a lethal amount of Sleeping Pills.
His call was soo strong that it pierced the Abyss and released Lucas from his bindings. He approached Frey’s lifeless body and was absorbed into it. The Great Mage had returned after 4000 years in the Void. He plans to live the life Frey wants to live. And at the same time, take revenge upon the Demigods who imprisoned him all those years ago.
But first, he had to get strong. Stronger than he ever was before. He had to start from scratch as Frey’s body was frail and full of impurities. He resumed life as Frey Blake, slowly building his skills back up.
He soon realized he wouldn’t gain much skill without any real combat experience. He goes in search of Schweizer’s Dungeon to further increase his skills.
At the moment, the Demigods are waging their war against the Demon Lords. We got a lot of information from the God of Creation about the origin of the Demigods and why they are doing what they do.
The identity of the one known as “Lord” was revealed. It was none other than the Archangel Michael who reemerged from the void after the Devine World crumbled.
The Great Mage Returns After 4000 Years Manhwa Recap
Lucifer came to find Lucas in the Mortal World and wanted to take him to Hell. He said he wanted to make Lucas into a transcendent being. Lucas, of course, declined as there is always a catch while making a deal with the devil. But what Lucifer said next changed his mind. He told him that Michael had found Iris and was holding her captive. We can see the look of horror on his face.
Then we see Michael conversing with Nozdog. He seems disappointed that Ananta has fallen into Hibernation. That too at this crucial period in their war.
He orders Nozdog to go to Hituome Ikar to find the man with the Dragon Heart. He adds that he must not kill but only suppress him. Then we see Lucifer approaching Dro. He sends the others away, saying he has other business.
There, Lucifer unlocks the rest of his memories and asks him to remember the real meaning of his name. Turns out he is not the Dragon Lord as he thought he was. He is someone far superior to a Dragon Lord.
The scene then shifts to Hell. Lilith is having trouble keeping up with the Demigods as they easily outnumber her. But fear not, as her backup has arrived.
This person is enough to level the playing field against Demigods and then some. It was Lucus. Looks like he accepted Lucifer’s deal to come to hell after all. Lilith is surprised to see him here as she doesn’t even think that someone like him will come to assist her. Lucus exclaims how he has never seen this many Demigods in one place before.

We do not know what Lucifer has planned now that he has brought Lucas to hell. He seems to have done something to Dro under the guise of restoring his memories. Who knows what goes inside the Scheming Mind of Lucifer?
