Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.Monica Everett, a genius magician, was extremely shy and terrible at speaking in public.
To that end, she worked hard and mastered the art of countless magic, which she could use without chanting. After being chosen as one of the Seven Sages at the tender age of fifteen as the “Silent Witch,” she lived a quiet life in the forest.
However, two years have passed since then, and one day, Monica received an order.
And it was to secretly protect the second prince to the academy undetected.
In order to protect the prince, Monica must infiltrate a glamorous school for the children of noble families.
“I don’t wanna do this… I’m scared… Ugh… My stomach is aching…”
…said the girl whimpering.

However, I do dislike that the MC has zero ambition and is easily manipulated / pushover. AND there is one glaring plot hole that I really can not get over. I have to vent here.
If the 7 sages are so powerful that the military relies on them to take out dragons, why are they so pitiful?? They get paid (not a lot) and are portrayed as being mostly subservient in order to obtain influence / money when they are literally the strongest super warriors in the whole kingdom capable of destroying a decent part of the country if they really put their mind to it. In that case if they are so powerful why does Louis always have to say yes to whatever the kingdom says? It makes no sense.
The writing is well done, the story is slice of life. Nothing special but some neat ideas and well executed. The name of the Silent Witch is known to the public and it’s a female name, Monica Everett, also the 2nd prince has a “crush” on her because her deeds were that impressive and the 2nd Prince always was interested in magic but was forbidden from studying it. Granted, there seems (!) to be no real reason for his evil grandfather, who is the bad guy of the story, to actually forbid it – as of now. The sentence with the “he doesn’t know wether she is male or female” was an error. The author got a bit irritated because of the Witch of Thorns who is actually a guy but calls himself witch, anyway. I guess the author wanted to play a bit with the genders since it’s popular but only “explained” such unnecessary stuff in a sentence and just tumbled. And there are several errors like this showing how poorly LN’s are edited in Japan (and even after translation, this is not just here but happens very often and I agree it is annoying, one should expect that such things are fixed for the commercial LN version and you rarely see such errors in ordinary novels). For example another mistake was that in Vol. 3 Monica supposedly could only use two spells at a time while in Vol. 2 there was a dialogue where she clearly stated she can chant and keep up 10 spells at once. So up to the end of Vol. 3 there is still lots of room for speculation why the 2nd prince’s grandfather wants to conquer certain countries or if the assassination attempts of those countries are just a reaction to that threat or if they bear ill will, anyway. There is some foreshadowing that the puppet prince really has no choice for whatever reason and has to do whatever his grandfather says, since his star can’t be read for ten years, already. Maybe something like a curse was put on him? He was a weak “useless” child who couldn’t do anything but transformed into a model athlete, fighter and so on during that time. The seven sages specialize in different kinds of magecraft, not all are fighters. One is a star reader, one specializes in making magic artifacts and so on. The one’s who can fight, along with the dragon knights, are busy protecting cities and killing monsters. They are not spies. The country is officially at peace with the neighboring places, after all. Who is fighting is doing it in secret, many noble factions against others and the same seems to count for the other countries as well. Oh, and as addition, I don’t think there ever will be any romance.
In Vol. 1 and 2 my bet still was on Cyril and not on Prince Felix. But when Monica and Felix became a bit closer (sleeping half naked in the same bed in Vol. 3) it only left the Prince as option but the Prince is a sl*t who sleeps around with wh*res so my bet is on the “siblings in spirit”-route. Also the prince is partly an as*hole who toys with / teases Monica. Also I doubt the series will be long enough to completely heal her social anxiety so she won’t be able to have a real romance in the first place.
