Melanie was born into the prestigious Stewart family, which had produced countless exceptional mages over generations.

However, she was the family's sole disappointment, possessing scant magical power.

Due to her introverted nature, Melanie often secluded herself in the mansion's library, when her fiancé, Julian, unilaterally broke off their engagement.

To make matters worse, Julian's new fiancée was Melanie's best friend, Emilia.

Reeling from the shock, Melanie withdrew even further into the mansion, until her uncle, Darius, a professor at the Magic Academy, invited her to work as his assistant.

It was there that Melanie's true talent emerged.

"M-Melanie? Don't tell me… can you read ancient languages?"

Darius was flabbergasted when he saw the potion Melanie had created by restoring ancient magic.

And Quinn, the kingdom's foremost court mage, also happened to be present and, witnessing Melanie's extraordinary talent, invited her to become his apprentice.
