Seeking refuge in a simpler life in the countryside, he encounters a financial hurdle, unable to afford even a train ticket. With no other option but to secure a job, he stumbles upon an extraordinary opportunity – tutoring Tina, the daughter of Duke Howard, one of the kingdom’s most influential nobles.

Tina, despite her exceptional academic prowess, grapples with the inability to cast a single spell. To compound her troubles, the entrance exams for the prestigious Royal Academy loom on the horizon, and magical aptitude is a non-negotiable requirement.

Can Allen employ his unique spellcasting skills to unravel the mystery behind Tina’s magical impediment, a conundrum that has eluded even the kingdom’s most accomplished sorcerers? And does the duke, her father, truly desire his assistance?

Nanano originally commenced serializing this enthralling tale on the Kakuyomu platform back in October 2017. The novels were officially released in print format by Kadokawa in December 2018, with the 15th volume hitting the shelves on August 19.
