Graphic designer Xie Wenyu flatlined from burnout, only to awaken as Harold, a new student in Sumeru’s prestigious Amyrido Academy. His only wish? A quiet, low-effort life, far from the corporate grind he escaped. There's just one problem: his brain, brimming with modern Earth's forgotten sciences, effortlessly trivializes Teyvat’s \"advanced\" knowledge. What takes others decades, he grasps in hours, making his mentor declare him a \"sage in the making.\" This accidental genius threatens to drag him back into the very cycle of overwork and political maneuvering he fled. With charismatic figures like Kavi and enigmatic Alhaisen already taking keen interest, Harold must now navigate the perilous path of a genius trying desperately to be mediocre, all while Sumeru’s deadliest secrets, like the Deceptive Flowers, loom closer.
