I died at 34—tragic car accident, nothing flashy. One second I was dodging marriage proposals and office deadlines, the next I was waking up in a world full of magic, swords, and people way too enthusiastic about either. Turns out, this new world had its end-of-the-world moment a century ago. Heroes died, monsters roamed, kingdoms fell, blah blah. But I missed all that. Lucky me. Born as the son of a court mage in the Empire of Wellstion, I’ve got decent mana, a loving family, and a society that expects me to do something with my life. Joke’s on them—I was lazy in my last life, and I brought that energy with me. Still, when the academy entrance exam starts throwing fireballs and teleportation traps, I guess it’s time to pretend to care. Magic’s real, girls are prettier, and monsters want to kill me. Again. Welcome to my second life. Hopefully I die less stupid this time.
