of the hundreds of stories i've read, this simply blows everything out of the water.

So the story is an isekai(oh no...), however it has none of the cringe elements modern isekais have. The story starts strong, and continues with excellent depth and story telling. Even though the story typically takes place with him as a professor to magic academy students, it keeps us hooked with side plot points that are still important.

Regarding the MC, it's very evident he uses real world concepts in his every day life in a magical world. Through said concepts, it lets us readers have a peep at what his ... previous life was.

The art is equally toptier.

Spoiler Warning for the few first chapters of the manwha

The plot of the manwha follows a criminal mastermind who found himself in the identity of the man that was supposed to be the new professor in the cereon academy who simingly died in a terrorist attack but due to cercomstances he has to pretend to be that man, at the start the protagonist thought it would be a good 2 years of rest and a good salary but he quickly discovers that the man he is impersonating was a part of a plot that takes place in this school, thats basically the summury of the ... few first chapters.

Also there is a weird isekai start that does play a huge role although not directly on the abilities of the protagonist he uses spells based on theories of our modern world and unlike other isekai protagonists there is an explanation on why he is smart although slightly weird his mom wanted to make him a shaman like crazy but instead of that he started studying and if i remember correctly he became a professor and some years later he died due to a traffic accident.

The cast is solid the students, teachers, criminals all have importance to the story and potential for their own arcs although the manwha is a bit overcrowded.

Overall: 7/10
Definetely deserves a chance

This is more of a mystery than a fantasy story. Honestly why is it even a Isekai - Reincarnation it is absolutely unnecessary. It starts off a quick intro to his first life and then bam it continues with mystery then boom surprise a tiny back story of the MC being a Mercenary and from the looks of it they skipped a good part of his back story, we don't even get to see him grow up or anything just boom here is a character boom tiny plot twist and surprise here is the MC but what the heck is going on...oh that's for you ... to keep reading and slowly find out until then be confused and you get no full interesting back story instead all that good stuff happened and now you have to figure out a mystery of why this is happening and who is after the MC. I picked this up for the reincarnation and fantasy not to read a mystery drama manhwa.

The art isn't bad it's good in my opinion but not a 10. More like an 8, the story on the other hand is a hard 2. A 2 only because the attempt was there but it failed.

Mid and guilty pleasure. Best words to describe this work.

Art: 6/10 poor environmental drawings but decent character design
story: 3/10 The creator did no even try, poor pacing, poorly written plots
Characters: 2/10 Not a single good character, illogical motives and flashbacks out of nowhere

To be honest its just another generic op mc type of manhwa. It is below average but is a guilty pleasure. Don't waste your time here and go read something else. It felt like the creator just wanted to check out the boxes of generic plots in Manhwa. School ✓ romance✓ op mc✓
secret organization ✓ out-of-place comedy ✓

A interesting premise, but unfortunately, it fell short in execution. The art was decent, but the story lacked depth and interest. It had a lot of potential but failed to deliver on it.

The main character's backstory and motives were unclear, making it difficult to connect with him or care about his actions. The plot was predictable, and the pacing was slow, making it a tedious read. The supporting characters were underdeveloped, and their actions felt forced and unnatural.

Overall, the manhwa had a lot of potential with its secret society and multiple aliases, but it failed to deliver on it. I wouldn't recommend it to ... anyone looking for a captivating and thought-provoking read.
