Reborn in Chains

Magical civilization collapsed in the flames of war. Thousands of years later, only broken rituals and arrogant monopolies remain in the world. As the most destitute eldest son of a noble after the fall of the empire, Ain Frostmark will lose the qualification to enter the magic academy. Deep in the cellar, what he found was not a forbidden curse that would destroy the world, but a volume of mage's notes buried in dust. There is no power to reach the sky in one step, only the truth forgotten by the times: Magic is not a privilege of innate talent, but a language accessible to anyone willing to think. While others were still repeating incomplete spells, he had begun to reconstruct the lost logic. As the nobles cling to the last bastion of magic, he picks up the oldest tool from the ruins: knowledge. This is a story that redefines magic for the world amid the fault lines of civilization. Reborn from the shackles, finding the way from the ashes.
