Description
After transmigrating, Lin Ye finds himself a freshman in college. As if that’s not enough, his roommate plays a prank and signs him up for the magic performance at the welcome party. Lin Ye thought for sure he was about to socially crash and burn. But unexpectedly, he activates the Supreme Mage System. Just by signing in daily, he can receive all sorts of magical spells and tools as system rewards. Shapeshifting, invisibility, flight, X-ray vision, mind reading, telekinesis, fireballs, teleportation, meteor showers… At the welcome party, he stuns the entire school with a live human transmutation. On Dragon Kingdom’s Got Talent, he blows everyone away by soaring over the Great Wall. At the Spring Festival Gala, he invites the Moon Goddess Chang’e down to Earth, shocking the whole world. Liu Qian: “Standing next to Lin Ye, I feel like a total rookie. What he’s doing isn’t magic—it’s real magic!” Lin Ye: “Magic? What magic? I’m just an ordinary magician. Don’t believe me? Let me show you a little trick.” As soon as he says that, Lin Ye—who was just standing in the gala studio—is suddenly lounging atop the Great Pyramid, sipping red wine. And just like that, the greatest magician in history is born.

My Thoughts on I’m a Magician, So Why Does Everyone Call Me the Archmage?
"I’m a Magician, So Why Does Everyone Call Me the Archmage?" presents an interesting premise: a system administrator transmigrates into a world of magic. I dove in hoping for a fresh take on the genre, and while there are some definite positives, I also encountered a few sticking points.
First Impressions
The initial chapters hooked me with the promise of exploring a modern individual adapting to a magical realm. The blend of fantasy and shounen elements seemed like it could create an exciting and engaging story.
What Works Well
The descriptions of the magic system are undoubtedly a high point. I found the author's attention to detail in explaining the mechanics and applications of magic quite compelling. The way magic is presented feels imaginative and well-thought-out, making it easy to visualize and get invested in the power system. It’s clear that the author has put considerable effort into crafting a believable and exciting world of magic.
Areas of Concern
However, I did find some aspects of the story less appealing. The main character, while initially promising, seems to fall into the trap of being overly glorified. While a capable protagonist is enjoyable, the constant praise and admiration directed toward him can become repetitive and detract from the overall narrative. The imbalance of character development can lead to the story becoming predictable and less engaging over time.

However, the story could benefit from a more balanced approach to character development and a move away from relying on overused tropes. If you’re a fan of detailed magic systems and don’t mind some of the common pitfalls of the genre, it might be worth a read. However, be prepared for some potentially frustrating character portrayals along the way.
