The Affair

Legend has it that magical items wielding mysterious powers and treasures are buried inside the Dungeons of ancient dynasties. Alibaba is one of many who dream of capturing a dungeon. One day, he meets a young boy named Aladdin, and they set off!

After entering the dungeon, Aladdin and Alibaba find themselves besieged by numerous traps and ferocious dungeon creatures. Ugo, the sacred spirit summoned by Aladdin, repulses them all, but Aladdin's strength is soon exhausted…

Aladdin and Alibaba are reunited at last. But the tyrannical Jamil, who doesn't see slaves as human beings, uses Goltas to navigate around the fiery traps of the dungeon, and soon catches up to them.

By capturing the dungeon Amon, Alibaba realizes his dream of becoming wealthy, but there's no sign of Aladdin, who finds himself among the once-great Kouga clan. Held together by their leader, Baba, Aladdin perceives something special about them.

Aladdin's faith in Hakuei is well-founded - she is trying to make the Kouga Empire a protectorate through peaceful means but falls victim to Ryosai’s scheme. Unaware of this, the Kouga Clan is enraged over the attack on Grandma, and prepares for battle.

In order to reach Balbadd, Morgiana has been traveling with Leila and Saasa, whose caravan she has joined. But a band of thieves - allied with a slave merchant - has settled itself on the direct road to Balbadd…

The kingdom of Balbadd has prospered since ancient times as a center of trade, but since the death of the former king, the country has been in turmoil. Said to be at the heart of this unrest is a group of chivalrous thieves called the "Fog Troop," but…

After they captured the dungeon, Aladdin and Alibaba had promised they would "see the world together.” But Alibaba is now the leader of the Fog Troop and brushes Aladdin away. Unable to bear Alibaba's behavior, Morgiana is about to take action.

Alibaba begins to tell Aladdin and Morgiana about his past and Cassim's treachery. He had forgiven Cassim, and decided to try and save the people with the Fog Troop. Aladdin is reminded of the Kouga village and reaches out to Alibaba when Cassim appears.

Sinbad has joined the Fog Troop and takes Alibaba to the palace. Here Alibaba appeals for the welfare of the people, but King Ahbmad dismisses his words. With the arrival of the priest of the Kou Empire, Judar, events move towards disaster for Aladdin.

An unimaginable battle between Aladdin and Judar has begun. Aladdin counters Judar's magic spells with Ugo who starts to move independently of Aladdin's will and drives Judar into submission. Kogyoku Ren, a princess of the Kou Empire, joins the fray.

Sabhmad warns Alibaba that Abhmad will marry one of the Kou Empire's princesses. Sinbad tells Alibaba he must assume the throne of Balbadd. Cassim reveals to Alibaba he will start a rebellion. Alibaba asks Sinbad to teach him to use his djinn.

Abhmad sends the royal guards from the Kou Empire to kill Alibaba. Morgiana helps Alibaba defeat them. Sinbad learns about it and goes to the palace too. Alibaba reaches the throne room where Abhmad orders his guards to kill him, but Sabhmad intervenes.

Alibaba tells Abhmad to step down, as Kogyoku tries to stop the commotion. Sinbad arrives with representatives of the Alliance of Seven Seas. As Alibaba declares to the people that Balbadd shall be a republic, Cassim and his men approach the palace.

After Alibaba’s declaration of Balbadd as a republic, Cassim comes up with an answer of his own. He convinces the citizens that the royal family is the enemy. And so Fate, which had been on the brink of becoming one, begins to reverse its course!

Cassim has tranformed into a Dark Djinn. He launches an attack against everyone inside the palace, in order to settle a longstanding grudge. Alibaba, despite being injured, gets back up again and again. Just then... a friend reaches out a helping hand!

Aladdin returns to guide both Alibaba and Cassim, who's turned into a Dark Djinn. After joining forces with Aladdin to resurrect Amon's broken sword, Alibaba takes on the Dark Djinn, diving deep into his arms. Can Alibaba rescue Cassim from the darkness?

Alibaba works furiously to rebuild Balbadd. A giant fleet of ships from the Kou Empire is advancing towards them. Sinbad forces Alibaba to escape. Several month later, the story has moved to an island nation of the South Seas - the Kingdom of Sindria.

In Sindria, Aladdin and Alibaba begin training under two of Sinbad’s "Eight Generals," - Alibaba under Sharrkan, and Aladdin under Yamraiha. Two visitors arrive from the Kou Empire - the fourth prince, Hakuryu Ren, and the eighth princess, Kogyoku Ren…

Hakuryu confesses the reason why he came to Sindria to Sinbad, and asks for his assistance. Sinbad suggests that Hakuryu work with Alibaba so that he can learn about the outside world. Meanwhile, the wound Alibaba sustained in Balbadd begins to ache.

Aladdin, Alibaba, Morgiana, and Hakuryu head for the dungeon, Zagan, which is on the island of Tran. As it's his first dungeon-capturing expedition, Hakuryu seems overeager. A voice calling out, "Hate him... kill him..." echoes inside Alibaba's head.

Hakuryu sees who Alibaba really is, and decides to fight by his side. No longer blocked by emotional walls, the four unite to take on the challenge of capturing Zagan. As Sinbad and the others watch over them, an unexpected enemy pays them a visit.

Isnan, an emissary from Al-Thamen, appears with Princess Dunya of the now-defunct nation, Musta'sim. She insults Alibaba by calling him a "prince whose country was overrun and destroyed." In her hand is the same Dark Metal Vessel that Cassim had held…

The battle between Al-Thamen, and the Kingdom of Sindria is underway. The Eight Generals are countering Al-Thamen's assault. Dunya is in Full-body Dark Djinn Equip mode. As Isnan goads him into despising his own fate, Alibaba's soul begins to vacillate.

The attack on Sindria turns out to be a diversionary tactic, and Al-Thamen's true objective is Alibaba and Aladdin. Alibaba is now a captive of the darkness. As a magi whose role is to guide kings, and as a friend, Aladdin will guide Alibaba.
