Summary - English
[DeepL Translation - needs review] I am my own monster. It’s because I, who am no other than myself, wished it so. In a world where the magic of ignition has been awakened before mankind has even made fire. Boris Karnov, a lonely young agent from the former Soviet Union, is asked to escort a girl. Her name is Toko Chigusa. She is said to be a magician with the magical qualities of a “sage,” which is said to be one in a hundred million people. Boris’s mission is to protect her from all dangers until she graduates from the Piramis Institute of Magic. Boris is suspicious of this unclear request, but when he gets involved in a battle over “The Monument,” a ruin of a super-ancient magical civilization that lies underground on Pyramis Island, he encounters the truth about himself and the world! The neo-fantasy that begins with despair and takes on the challenge of the future is about to begin!

Why are you nominating this book: it’s a lower level book involving magic. Plot sounded a bit interesting, and it might be a good way to pick up some magic vocab without feeling in over your head
