The world is on the brink of destruction after a devastating ten-year war in the “shadow labyrinth.” Desir Herrman is one of the last skilled magicians left standing, but even he is no match for the formidable foe threatening humanity's very existence. Just when he's certain the end has come, he is sent back in time to his early days of studying magic at the prestigious Hebrion Academy! With this rare second chance, Desir is determined to save not only himself but also the friends and comrades he once lost. Armed with the knowledge of what their future holds, can his efforts make a difference, or are they all doomed to relive the same terrible destiny?
My Opinion: 141 chapters, Official English Publisher - Tappytoon
The official english manga version has a bit over a 100 chapters and more fan translated ones exist up to 141. This is a regressor story, where someone is sent back to an earlier point in their life, where he uses his vast knowledge of magic and what’s going to happen in the future to try save humanity from the coming calamities. Ultimately, it’s a slice of life adventure where the main character (MC) recruits undervalued students at a special academy and goes on these mini-adventures using the school’s trial/pocket dimension system. It’s fun to see the MC beat the naysayers and bullies and the pocket dimension system allows for interesting side-stories where the students are given quests and unearth truths about the past, doing some world building while adventuring.
Score: 7.6 out of 10
