Description
“You’re a failure, don’t ever cross my threshold again!” In a country where magic is everything, especially in a kingdom where everything is determined by the ability of ‘bloodline magic’ that only nobles are born with. Hermes, who was born as the second son of a certain noble family, was found to be a “failure” with no bloodline magic despite his high magical talent, and was exiled from the family. Hermes was almost killed in the depths of his disappointment, but then he was picked up by Rose, a “witch” he met, who saw his talent and made him her apprentice. After five years of training, he returns to King’s Landing with the most powerful magic of all – the ability to recreate all magic – and learns all kinds of magic he never knew he could. He corrects the wrong thinking spreading in the kingdom, saves his childhood friends who suffer from magic, destroys the incompetent position of the bloodline magic-dependent people who banished him, and eventually makes a name for himself as the savior of the kingdom.

My Thoughts on A Genius Boy Who Was Exiled From His Family Home for “Not Being Able To Use Magic” Becomes a Witch’s Apprentice and Masters All Magic in the Right Way. This Is How You Use Your Magic, You Know?
First Impressions
Okay, that title is a mouthful, isn't it? But, I dove into "A Genius Boy..." with an open mind, ready for some fantasy fun. The premise of a magic-less boy, exiled and then flourishing under a witch's tutelage, definitely has some classic underdog appeal. It's the kind of story that could really grab you if done right.
What Works Well
The magic system seems to be a major draw for many. The core concept, where bloodline magic is perceived as a blessing but is actually a limitation, is quite clever. The idea that our protagonist, free from these bloodline constraints, can potentially master all forms of magic is definitely intriguing. I also enjoyed that the main character is likable enough and that the story is a quick, easy read. The pacing, while a bit jumpy, keeps things moving.
Areas of Concern
Alright, let's talk about some potential pitfalls. The plot felt a bit weird. The main character's goal of seeing and stealing bloodline magic is not the most heroic. It makes him seem like he's just going along with whatever the heroine wants, which isn't great.

Final Verdict
"A Genius Boy..." has some promising elements, particularly its magic system and easy-to-read style. However, the plot and character inconsistencies might be a turn-off for some. If you're looking for a light, popcorn fantasy with a unique magic system and don't mind a possibly flawed protagonist, this might be worth a try. But be warned, it might not be the most groundbreaking or deeply engaging story you'll ever read.
