Magic Maker: How to Make Magic in Another World

A 30-year-old man with a lifelong ambition to become a wizard dies unexpectedly and is reborn in another world as a small boy named Shion. Raised alongside Marie—his reliable, doting older sister—Shion looks forward to a life filled with sorcery, only to learn that magic appears to be nonexistent. The disappointment leaves him withdrawn for years, until an unusual phenomenon at a nearby lake draws the siblings in and rekindles his hope.

Investigating the strange light rising from the water, Shion discovers proof that a form of magical energy does exist. Though it isn’t immediately useful, he throws himself into studying the mystery, determined to understand the world’s hidden forces and carve a path toward creating magic.
