What exactly is luck?

Is it just a coincidence that comes by chance, or is it a type of innate talent?

People often say. That someone succeeded because they were lucky. That they survived on luck alone without any real skill.

But isn't it strange?

If it happens once, let's call it a coincidence. Twice, let's call it luck. But what if luck follows every single time, past three, ten, or a hundred times?

By then, wouldn't it be embarrassing to call it a coincidence anymore.

Just like that girl who uses miracles others might experience once in a lifetime as if they were part of her daily routine.

This girl's name is Elysia.

A genius mage recognized for her outstanding talent from a young age. A girl born with magical talent that anyone would envy.

But in a corner of Elysia's heart, a romance completely different from magic had taken root.

The sword.

Not brilliant magic or powerful spells, but the image of a swordsman roaming the battlefield with a single blade.

Though born a genius mage, what she actually longed for was swordsmanship.

And this girl had one more special talent that no one knew about yet.

The fact that she is incredibly, stubbornly lucky.

And strangely enough, the occasion of her getting her first sword was also a coincidence.

One day, while subjugating monsters in the forest as part of a usual quest. A fallen monster dropped a single sword.

Elysia, who brought the sword back without much thought, stood in front of a mirror holding it out of curiosity.
