Izushiro Biography & Facts

The Greatest Magicmaster's Retirement Plan (Japanese: 最強魔法師の隠遁計画, Hepburn: Saikyō Mahōshi no Inton Keikaku) is a Japanese light novel series written by Izushiro and illustrated by Ruria Miyuki. The story centers around 16-year-old Alus Reigin, a young prodigy and the world's strongest Magicmaster in a battle against the invading fiends, while attempting to reclaim humanity's lost territory and to protect mankind from near extinction in fantasy-esque earth. Initially, Izushiro started his work on the user-generated novel publishing website Shōsetsuka ni Narō back in 2015. Hobby Japan eventually acquired Izushiro's work and began publishing the print edition as a light novel in February 2017. J-Novel Club licensed the light novel series for English releases in March 2019. A manga adaptation by Yū Uonuma began serialization online in Hobby Japan's Comic Fire manga website from July 2017 to January 2019 before it got canceled. A second manga adaptation by Karu Yoneshiro titled The Greatest Magicmaster's Retirement Plan: The Alternative (最強魔法師の隠遁計画-ジ・オルターネイティブ-, Saikyō Mahōshi no Inton Keikaku: Ji Orutāneitibu) began serialization online in Square Enix's Manga UP! website in August 2020. Plot 100 years ago, out of nowhere, humanity faced a new enemy and was gradually driven out of its land. This enemy was an abomination called "Fiends", and they wielded devastating power in which conventional weaponry was useless. 100 years later, humanity is yet to reclaim their lost lands, and remnants of human civilizations are splintered into seven countries but are united against the fiends. A massive magical barrier was erected by Babel in the center of the seven nations, thwarting the fiends' invasion and saving humanity from extinction. Magicmasters, numbering in the hundreds of thousands, are what stand between humanity and its extinction, protecting their countries against the Fiends. Magicmasters distinguish themselves through a numerical ranking system. The lower their digits, the stronger the Magicmaster is. Alus Reigin, protagonist and Magicmaster from the nation of Alpha, has been battling the fiends since the age of six. He has reclaimed more of humanity's lost territory than anyone else alive. One day at the age of 16, he requests retirement from military services. Naturally, the governor-general can not accept his resignation, and so they reach a compromise. With that, he ends up as a student at Second Magical Institute, forced to hide his identity, but some of the select few knew who this boy truly is. He finds himself a partner, Loki Leevahl, to aid in his mission. He also ends up training his successors, Tesfia Fable and Alice Tilake. He even comes across the daughter of his former superior, Felinella Socalent. On top of his growing list of responsibilities and frequent messes in dealing with these beauties, he resumes his research and continues to defeat the Fiends in secret. Characters Main characters Alus Reigin A 16-year-old boy and the strongest Magicmaster, serving the nation of Alpha. He started serving in the military at the age of six before he rose through the ranks. His affinity is Void meaning his magic is attribute-less, and he wields a custom and self-made AWR (Assist Weapon Recovery, i.e., Aura) "Night Mist", which comes in the form of a short-sword with chains imbued with magic.LN 1.2 Alus was born with two different manas, which created his attribute-less disposition and unique abilities.LN 2.9 He is yet to fully comprehend the mysteries surrounding his nature, which is why he devoted himself to magical research on top of his Magicmaster duties. He is a good researcher, performing self-research on magic at an early age to gain a better understanding of his abilities. However, being raised as an effective killing machine from an early age, Alus lacks tact and understanding when it comes to the subtleties of the heart.LN 1.1 Despite his icy-cold exterior, his personality is subtly changing, such as being able to read the mood of an event as he spends more time with the girls at the institute. Alus is currently a student at the Second Magical Institute.LN 1.1 He works on his magic researches in his free time and sometimes responds to mission requests that comes directly from Governor-General Berwick Sarebian. He reports directly to the governor-general. Loki Leevahl Alus's partner, Loki, is a triple-digit Magicmaster and a double-digit Spotter. Spotters specialize in detecting Fiends, and only double-digit Magicmasters or higher are assigned spotters as their partners. Apart from being an expert at Fiends detection, she also is an excellent Magicmaster with combat experience. Like Alus, she was an orphan after losing her parents to the Fiends, and her hatred towards the enemy spurred her decision to join the military at a very young age. She uses a knife AWR and her affinity is the lightning attribute.LN 1.3 She had first met Alus at one of the Military training facilities, albeit briefly. This short encounter left a significant impression on her to push forward and continue with the harsh training. Eventually, she would reencounter Alus when he saved her life on her first mission, which went awry back when she was a child. Since then, she decided that she would devote her entire life to Alus by being useful. When she learned of Alus's enrollment at the Institute, she immediately followed suit and eventually became his partner after undergoing a trial imposed by Alus.LN 1.3 She is exceptionally loyal to Alus and tends to get jealous of the other girls when they get too close to him. She is adept at housework such as cleaning up the laboratory, indexing research paper works and even prepares meals for Alus.LN 2.8 Initially, she does not get along with Tesfia and Alice. She is enraged with how Tesfia and Alice treat Alus, despite them being aware of Alus's status and predicament. She eventually warms up and becomes more accepting of the two girls, when she realizes Tesfia and Alice are working hard not just for their own sake, but for others as well. She has feelings for Alus and competes for his affection.LN 1.3 Tesfia Fable Tesfia is a first-year student and top novice Magicmaster of her year at the Institute, currently being trained by Alus. She is from one of the noble families from Alpha. Her affinity is ice magic, and she uses a katana AWR that she inherited from her family.LN 1.2 Tesfia has a blunt and hot-headed personality, but deep down is gentle, diligent, and hardworking. When she first meets Alus, they both started on bad terms and she initially looks down on him. After she loses to Alus in a mock battle and discovers Alus's true identity, her opinion of him takes a turn for the better.LN 1.3 She is gradually drawn to him.LN 2.8 Alice Tilake A first-year student, she is also one of the top novice Magicmasters of her year at the Institute. Currently being trained by Alus, Alice is cheerful and maternal with a dark past. As a child, she parti.... Discover the Izushiro popular books. Find the top 100 most popular Izushiro books.
