This expression can't be used together with the idiom "as a matter of fact", which is used to correct or contradict a statement made by another person. The speaker might say, "as a matter of fact, I am only 21 years old". The term "fiction", which refers to a topic which is imaginary or unreal, doesn't belong in this sentence.

The sentence expresses that nobody knows whether fairies exist or not, or if they are "fact or fiction". "Fact or fiction" is an expression often seen in titles of articles, books, or news programs where the existence of a given subject will be discussed, examined or debated.

This sentence doesn't use the expression "fact or fiction" correctly. To express that a statement ("the world is round") is true, we would say "it's a fact" or "that's a fact".
