Season 1 of Mushoku Tensei began with the protagonist being transported to another world after being hit by a bus. He then awoke in the body of a newborn baby, held in the arms of his new parents.
Sylphiette was born a few months later, making Rudeus a few months older than her.
One year later, Rudeus acquires the ability to read their unique language, and he is able to read books.
By the age of two, Rudeus had already begun to use magic thanks to a book he discovered at home. He quickly realized that his mana capacity was growing and he was now able to cast spells without the need for incantations.
From the age of three, Roxy began living with Rudeus and became his official magic teacher. Her shock was evident as she witnessed his astonishingly fast learning rate and ability to perform incantations without chanting.
At the same time, Paul (Rudeus’ father) realized the importance of learning swordsmanship and therefore began training in this skill as well.
At the age of 5, Rudeus met Sylphiette. She was drawn to magic and they quickly became friends as he began teaching her the art.
At this moment, Roxy (who was already over 40 years old) reveals to Rudeus that she has imparted most of her knowledge to him and proclaims him to be a water Saint-Class magician.
At the young age of 7, Rudeus is forced to depart from his home and take up residence in the Fittoa Region with Boreas Greyrat. It is there that he becomes acquainted with Eris and begins to instruct her in magic, while also receiving lessons in swordsmanship from Ghislaine.
The mana disaster occurred the day after Rudeus turned 10 years old, resulting in both him and Eris being transported to the Demon Continent. Eris, who is now 12 years old, was with him at the time.
Ruijerd, the Superd man, meets both of them and takes it upon himself to ensure their safe journey back home.
From the time he was 10 years old until his reunion with Aisha and Norn, many incidents occurred.
Court 2:
At the age of approximately 12, he came face to face with Oersted, the dragon god. Despite being on the brink of death, he was saved by Nanahoshi’s intervention.
After Rudeus and Roxy returned to the Fittoa region, Season 1 of Mushoku Tensei came to an end. Roxy left Rudeus to deal with his trauma and ED, while Rudeus was still only 12 years old.
Season 2
Introduction
With his newfound determination to find his mother, Rudeus embarks on a journey to the Central Continent. There, he joins a group known as the Counter Arrow and begins completing quests alongside them. At this point in time, Rudeus is 13 years old.
After spending a year in this region, he is reunited with Elinalise. During this time, he receives an invitation from the Ranoa Magic University, offering him a scholarship to join as a student. With the encouragement of the Human god, he and Elinalise decide to enroll in the university.
Rudeus is currently almost 15 years old and is conducting research on the mana calamity at the University. During this time, he encounters Nanahoshi and they collaborate on investigating the teleport incident. Additionally, he simultaneously works on resolving his ED problem.
Rudeus establishes his friend group at the academy, which includes his senior Fittz, whom he greatly respects and admires, as well as Zanoba, Linia, Pursena, Elinalise, and Cliff.
After being enrolled in the Ranoa Magic University for a year, Rudeus discovers that Fitz, who he knows as Sylphy, is actually the true identity of his love interest. As their feelings for each other deepen, Sylphy is able to cure Rudeus’ ED.
Court 2:
In the most recent season of Mushoku Tensei, Rudeus, a 16-year-old, purchased a house and tied the knot with Sylphy. They happily resided together in their new mansion.
Later, Paul had Aisha and Norn join Rudeus at the Ranoa Magic University at the age of 10.
In that year, Rudeus embarked on a journey to the Begaritt Continent in order to rescue his mother. Sadly, during the rescue mission, his father Paul passed away and they later discovered that Rudeus’ mother, Zenith (who was approximately 32 years old), had lost her memories.
During his search for Zenith, Rudeus is reunited with Roxy, whom he had not seen for several years. As they catch up, Roxy takes the opportunity to console Rudeus after the passing of his father. When they return, Rudeus respectfully seeks Sylphy’s consent to marry Roxy, who is now in her mid-forties.
