Why It Should Get Picked Up: This novel has a LOT of potential from what i could see in those 9 translated chapters. First, it's not an isekai, and it's not a RPG-like world either, it's a pure fantasy novel, something rare these days. Secondly, the world building in those 9 chapters was amazing, and the concept itself of a giant tower with a magic society in it that our mc will have to climb is interesting and can make for a really interesting story, even if it isn't completely original.
Finally, the protagonist seems like he isn't a wimp or a edgelord, he is kinda naive (naive as in simply having a lack of knowledge, not being straight up dumb like most mcs) at the beginning since he was a slave, but grows quickly by looking around him and studying the society and the economy of the tower. From what i've seen for now, this mc has a lot of potential, in my opinion there is even a possibility of him becoming one of those cunning type mcs like lelouch.
So, good mc + Not an isekai or RPG-type world + excellent world building + interesting premise = novel with a lot of potential to be amazing.

Description:
The Guingard Tower; in a world dominated by magic, a child arrives at the doors of this magic academy. His name is Lynn. He is a child slave without money who dreams of a wealthy life. He has neither power nor talent. Besides that, a strong discrimination depending on the status awaits him in the academy to which he has enrolled.

Investment techniques, a small amount of money and time, connection with aristocrats… Lynn uses all kinds of wits and runs up the stairs to be a great magician.

The latest translator gone poof or what?

 

Last time he translated was in november...
He said he was going to release a new chap in february, but nothing until now. Seems like he has a lot of problems in real life.

Been waiting for updates. I really like these kind of stories where the MC struggles his way up.

 

Hmm kinda cliche but looks good.

 

It's 'picked up' but there's still no new chapter tho

 

3 months and still nothing, so let's up the post again i guess...

If there are enough readers, there will be more chapters or at the very least I have drummed up some interest for the novel

You should probably update the novelupdate page of tou no madoushi since old readers won't know that someone else is translating it now without that x')

 

Anyone can add it even you
Cheers!

 

NU doesn't accept teaser chapters.
