A Foolish Archmage9.8

Arthur Leo belongs to an influential family of magicians, but others ridicule him for having no magical ability. Regarded as a fool, he has little standing among people who measure worth by spells. Awakening the legendary Wordless Book gives him access to a power outside that familiar system.

Those around Arthur continue treating him as useless, unaware that his circumstances have changed. The book offers a path beyond the magic they understand. He begins moving towards the position of a great archmage while carrying the public reputation of a boy who cannot cast at all.
