Shin Wolford is a boy, who used to work in an office in Japan, but after being killed in an traffic accident, is reborn in another world, where he learns magic from his adoptive grandfather, Merlin, and grows up sheltered from the world.

After moving to the royal capital, Shin prepares to take the entrance exam for Earlsheid Magic Academy, a high school for magicians. However, his far-disproportionate skill in magic already ensure that he is in a class by himself.

During their first full day of school, Shin and the others get a tour of the academy. After Kurt's father is summoned by the king over Kurt's behavior, he is grounded, while Kurt's mother invites his former magic teacher over to speak to him.
