Synopsis
He was going down a good path in life, until that time came.

Although he was a commoner, he still managed to rank second at the Royal Academy due to his own efforts, surpassing even nobility. Later graduating from a University with an excellent record, he was guaranteed a good workplace. If things went smoothly, he would have surely become a Court Magician. An elite amongst elites.

But, well,due to circumstances I failed the exam—what a shame. And I didn’t even have enough money for the train fare back home either.

In such a dire situation, my professor introduced me to a job: to become a home tutor for a Duke’s daughter. This job smells fishy….

This is a story of a man who wants to lead an ordinary life, but unexpectedly gets caught up in a competition between his frenemy from his academy days and his tutoring student —all of this forcing him to climb the ladder of society.

…How did this happen?

My Thoughts
The best thing about this series is the story itself, it's engaging and has a great comedic tone. The MC is pretty interesting in the way he ends up turning the principals of magic on their head.
