Shin Wolford, once a Japanese salaryman killed in a traffic accident, reincarnated into a magical world where legendary mage Merlin Wolford discovered him as an infant after demons slaughtered his biological parents. Raised in seclusion by Merlin and alchemist Melinda Bowen, Shin absorbed rigorous magical and combat training but grew detached from societal norms, leaving gaps in practical knowledge and etiquette. His analytical mind fused scientific reasoning from his past life with arcane theory, enabling unconventional innovations like oxygen-manipulated fire spells and light-refraction cloaks. With striking purple hair, reddish-brown eyes, and androgynous features, Shin’s curiosity and protectiveness toward loved ones contrast with his volatile reactions to threats. At 15, he enrolled in Earlshide Kingdom’s Advanced Magic Academy, founding the Ultimate Magic Research Society alongside August von Earlshide—a royal cousin figure—and Sicily von Claude, whom he later married. Their family expanded through adopting Silver and birthing Charlotte, intertwining noble tradition with personal bonds. Shin’s combat mastery spans elemental magic, dimensional manipulation, and martial arts, yielding spells like concentrated sunlight beams and kinetic-nullifying barriers. He engineered enchanted tools such as vibration swords and jet boots, commercialized via Wolfard Company. Yet his scientific-magical hybrids, like hydrogen-fueled explosions, often alarmed peers unaware of his Earth-inspired logic. Confronting demons and adversaries like the devil-corrupted noble Kurt Ritzburg and scheming antagonist Oliver Schtrom, Shin solidified his role as a kingdom defender. Though mentors Merlin and Melinda neglected life-skills education, fostering socially awkward yet humorous interactions, their teachings underpinned his growth. Balancing Earth-derived pragmatism with medieval values, Shin navigated interpersonal dynamics, anchoring his loyalty in deep bonds with Sicily and allies while refining his legacy as a bridge between worlds.
