Alex Roth dreamed of becoming a wizard at the University of Generasi. But on his eighteenth birthday, he was marked by prophecy as one of the kingdom's five Heroes destined to fight the Ravener. Instead of receiving a powerful combat mark, Alex was branded with 'The Fool,' the worst of the marks.
Fleeing to the university with his little sister, his childhood friend, and her cerberus, Alex must navigate academy life, learn magic from eccentric wizards, practice alchemy, and find ways to overcome or exploit his Mark's unique restrictions.
The light novel adaptation features original interior illustrations by Japanese artist Natsujirushi.
