According to the manga’s licensee, Kodansha Comics, the plot is as follows:
Ray White is simply a regular person, while the Arnold Academy of Magic is a school for the elite. He really comes out as a bit of a klutz and doesn’t seem to have any special magic skills. The Iceblade Sorcerer, one of the great magicians, is rumored to be a member of the incoming class, therefore he must have nothing to do with it, right?
January will mark the anime’s debut.
In October 2019, the series debuted on the Let’s Become Novelists website, Shsetsuka ni Nar. July 2020 saw the launch of the light novel series.
In June 2020, the manga was made available on the Magazine Pocket website and app by Kodansha.
