World Exploration Arc
Sphintus sees Aladdin at the Magnostadt Academy entrance exam. He laughs at him for only being in the 6th Kodor. Later, Aladdin enters his room and turns out to be his roommate. Aladdin tries to talk with Sphintus, but he quickly shakes him off, saying that he doesn't intend to be friends with the 6th Kodor. Aladdin however looks at Sphintus' paper sheet and learns his name, what makes Sphintus angry. He blurts out that Aladdin should hurry up and drop out of school, but Aladdin doesn't know what his roommate is talking about. Sphintus laughs but explains about "Iktiyar". Then, Sphintus takes a look on Aladdin's Maref schedule and wonders what is wrong about it, since it's full of body strengthening Maref. After Aladdin comes back from his lesson with Myers, he tells him that he should follow his orders because he's higher Kodor. His first command is to speak with him and keeps his company. Sphintus asks where Aladdin is from, and begins to say that he's from Heliohapt. However, he notices that Aladdin is already asleep so he tries to wake him up. However, Aladdin is way too tired and wounded to do so.

The same thing happens every day; Aladdin is too tired to keep Sphintus a company, and being ignored annoys him. Afterwards, he attentively watches Aladdin's performance during Iktiyar. He is surprised after Aladdin passes the exam and gets promoted into the 1st Kodor.

Magnostadt Arc
Months later, Sphintus attends the party after the Iktiyar. He talks to Aladdin about how he will become the first seat, while how he barely made it into the 1st Kodor. He then stands in front of the class as Myers tells the class that he and Aladdin will becoming second years. Then, he is asleep in his and Aladdin's room while Aladdin writes in his journal.

The next day, Sphintus attends the ceremony will all the other students. When Aladdin is not selected to be the first seat, Sphintus is shocked. He complains to the announcer about why Titus Alexius, not Aladdin, was chosen. When the ceremony is over, Sphintus asks Aladdin if he agrees with this. He and Aladdin then head to the dorms. He tells Aladdin that it would be great if they were roommates, but Aladdin looks reluctant. When they notice Titus, Sphintus then tells Aladdin about Titus's family. When Titus wants to shake Aladdin's hand, Sphintus wishes for Aladdin not to shake his hand. He is then surprised when Aladdin gropes Titus. When Aladdin says he thought he was a she, Sphintus laughs. He is shocked when Matal Mogamett shows up, and he bows. When Aladdin asks who he is, Sphintus tells him that he is the chancellor of the Magnostadt Academy and the leader of Magnostadt.

The next day, Sphintus watches Aladdin and Titus' battle exam. He is mostly shocked and surprised at what both of them are capable of. After the match, he is shocked when the chancellor passes both of them. He rushes to Aladdin's to side after Titus almost kills Aladdin, even though their battle was over. He is later by Aladdin's side along with two other students. When one of them asks about Titus, Sphintus tells them that he is imprisoned for the night. He then asks if Aladdin will be alright.

The next day, Sphintus invites Aladdin to see the city around the academy. When Titus shows up, he asks why he is their. Titus tells him that he and Aladdin have a mission they need to complete, which Aladdin confirms. He then tries to asks about the master thing when Titus says that he need to accomplice their mission for their masters. He then passes through the barrier and is amazed at how the city looks. He then flies on his wand, as they explore the city. After sightseeing, he asks Aladdin why they created a city full of magic tool. He also reveals that in his country the work that the magic tools are doing are done by slave. Aladdin then asks him about the level of citizenship, which he explains it. When Titus shows them a cat, he wonders what is wrong with him. He then continues exploring the city with them. He is enjoying being pampered by the citizens for being a magician.

Later after returning to the dorm, He tells Aladdin that they couldn't get more information about the Level of Citizenship. After Aladdin tries to get info on the 5th district from a teacher, Sphintus suggest that they don't have to go their now, which Aladdin agrees. He also suggests that go get some dinner and head to sleep. Later in his room, he is sleep talking about him telling his father that he try his best. He is then roped in when Aladdin and Titus try to get info on the 5th district.

They then head to the first district. He asks Titus are they going to get in their, which Titus tells them that they are going to disguise themselves with light magic. They then try to get in but can't. When it looks like they are going to get caught, He uses Yoah Reg to put the guards to sleep. When they ask what he did, He tells them that its Healing Magic and explains how it works. They then uses an accessory, which is the pass, from a passing teacher and head in. He then looks for information on the 5th district. When Aladdin find info about the city, they are shocked to learn that their is 300,000 people in the city and that 200,000 of them are in the 5th district. After they find the location of the 5th district, they head to their.

While flying their, he wonders why they are making 200,000 people live their. After reaching the 5th district, he along with Aladdin and Titus are shocked that their is a city built underground. He and the others them head to the city while still disguised. After looking around he says that its normal city. When their disguises dissolved he ask Titus if he cast the spell correctly. He then notices that magoi is leaking out from everyone. When they see a girl collapsed, he tells them that he can't do anything. After Titus helps the girl, Sphintus gets mad at Titus for saying that he was useless. He along with Aladdin and Titus are then told what the 5th district is. He then asks them if they are happy living like that, which one of them says that they are. After hearing everything, he asks Titus to say something because he was silent. Later he tells Aladdin that they are going to leave after Titus casts a little more magic on Marga.

He then asks the chief if they really are happy their which he says yes. He also listens as the chief tells him explain what it is like when the old government was in charge and that the ones who are miserable are the second generation. He is then shocked to hear that Titus plans to take Marga to the surface. When the patrol comes, he quickly hides along with Aladdin and Titus. Sphintus then wonders what they should do. He then quickly helps Titus when Titus is injured after saving Marga. He also tells him that if he is expelled from the academy then he will blame Titus and his family. He then tells Aladdin to remember the reason he came to the academy. When Myers comes and easily defeat Doron he says that she is awesome.

The following day, he, Titus and Aladdin attend to an "Ideology Reformation" lecture. Sphintus says that Mogamett has given permission to them to go to the 5th Level District when they please because Titus wants to see Marga again. Then, the teachers appear and, by the general surprise, also Mogamett appears and talks about the differences of magicians and goi, and projects his memories with Clairvoyance Magic. Sphintus is amazed by this magic.

After Mogamett's explanation, the chancellor asks to the trio what they saw underground. Quickly, Titus says that they saw 200.000 oppressed people. Mogamett contradicts him, and adds that Goi are just livestock, no different from animals. Sphintus is disgusted when he listens Mogamett's answer. Mogamett continues, saying that magicians should be the ones who guide the world, and not the goi. After the lesson all students are shocked. Sphintus says that Mogamett said an extreme speech.

The following day, they attend to the second "Ideology Reformation" lecture. Mogamett shows more memories, in where the goi succumbs to their own greed. Mogamett focuses in the former Musta'sim Kingdom, and shows the end of its monarchy, showing Isaac's death, which Aladdin recognizes. To end the speech, Mogamett said that the magicians received an unfair treatment. Sphintus repeats his words, and then explains to the other students the way magicians are treated in Heliohapt. He says in his clan is quite often that medical magicians are born. They are used by the royal family for power struggles, like assassinating the political opponents. Sphintus explains that if you oppose them you are exiled from the royal court.

When Titus is able to be with Marga and they are outside, Aladdin asks Sphintus' opinion about Chancellor's point of view. Sphintus agrees with Mogamett, even though he doesn't think goi are livestock. He adds that a magicians country should be created and that the Chancellor is a great person. When he says that, Aladdin gets angry, and Sphintus asks him what's wrong with his answer.

Sphintus manages to get a recommendation for "High Level Healing Magic". Sphintus, Aladdin, Titus and Marga pass a day together, and when he's playing with Marga he can't follow her rhythm. He says the magic treatment is showing results since Marga is full of energy. Then he cooks and Titus says that Sphintus is, surprisingly, a good cook, which annoys Sphintus.

Before the beginning of the war, Sphintus is not sure about what to do, and is surprised when he sees Titus wearing the High-Class magician uniform.

When Scheherazade orders to begin the assault, he and Aladdin are running through the academy. Sphintus asks if they should go and help the magicians.

When Sphintus sees the amount of injured magicians, he announces to Aladdin that he'll fight for Magnostadt after all, and starts healing a magician. He says that the war is Reim's fault, and that they cannot leave Titus behind.

When Aladdin ensures Titus that their friends doesn't care about he whether is human or not, Sphintus, along with Myers, Nero and other magicians surround the Fanalis to begin an assault.

Sphintus is surprised when Aladdin's power is beginning to release, and amazed when he sees his friend creating Ugo.

He stabilizes Myers' injuries, with great difficulty, leaving him weak from extensive magoi usage, and Doron says he owes him one.

When Mu's going to kill Aladdin, Sphintus shouts Aladdin's name. When Aladdin and Titus have a talk with Scheherazade and Alibaba Saluja, Sphintus is worried, and doesn't want them to go.
