The Heretic Scholar’s Last Gambit

A brilliant but disgraced scientist (physics/chemistry background) dies in our world and reincarnates into a magical empire where spellcasting follows strict scientific laws. However, he soon discovers that true magic—an ancient, forbidden force tied to eldritch gods—exists outside these rules.

Now branded a heretic, he must:

Hide his discoveries from the magic academia (who execute "anomalies").

Decipher the lost science-magic fusion before cultists or inquisitors find him.

Decide whether to embrace the forbidden power (at the cost of his sanity) or die as a martyr for truth.
