## Synopsis

Reincarnated into the world of Phi, Ryou expects the classic cozy second life — a little house, a little magic, plenty of leisure. What he gets is a remote subcontinent teeming with monsters that treat 'apex predator' as an entry-level position. Fortunately, Ryou is a natural optimist with a knack for lateral thinking, an affinity for water magic, and a hidden trait that stops the clock on his aging. Twenty years of solitary trial and error later, his improvised training has quietly pushed him toward the ceiling of human magic — just in time for the outside world, with all its politics and adventurers, to finally arrive at his doorstep.
