Just Add Mana Novel

Cale's countless past lives have granted him an overwhelming amount of mana—so much that his magical core resembles a nuclear reactor. However, this immense power has become a curse: conventional spells collapse under the sheer weight of his mana reserves, making them impossible to cast. When Cale is summoned to a new world with an adaptive spellwork system that can handle his extraordinary reserves and generate custom spells, he sees hope for practicing magic again. But challenges quickly emerge. To master this new magic and create worthwhile spells, he must attend a magic academy. Meanwhile, complications pile up: an ancient dragon has taken interest in him, the kingdom's hunters are mysteriously targeting his classmates, and Cale suspects an ancient evil from one of his previous lives has tracked him down. Despite these obstacles, Cale remains optimistic. With functional magic finally within reach, he might at last achieve what he considers the ultimate magical accomplishment: baking.
