I Was Reincarnated as Someone's Mana??

Description

My name is Magnus Karlsson, and by a series of rather unfortunate events that I had absolutely no say in, I was killed and reincarnated.

In this story, you will follow Magnus as he tries his very best to survive in a world that's been thrown into chaos, together with the man whose mana he is, Allan Woodsworth. Well, not a man per se, more of a little boy who has no idea what the fuck is going on, but, you know... I'm sure it'll be fine. Nothing bad will happen to the pair. Nope. No abandoned kids here.

Anyhow.

The world that Magnus has been thrown into is one perversed by the will of a great mage who, three thousand years ago, decided that it would be a great idea to infuse all the people of the earth with so-called "orbs". These magical crystals allow their handler to control and generate mana, which they can then use to become mages. Most barely use them, since the mana cost of doing such a little thing as a fireball spell is absolutely ridiculous. Said mage, Theodore Cromwell, Magnus used his resources to infuse not only humans with orbs, but animals as well, giving rise to what the mage community calls "horrid perversions of nature", but what the common folk calls "monsters". Orbs can be used for much, and it is through orbs that people keep track on their level of mana and such, and destroying the orb of a monster is A, the only way to kill it and B, a good way to absorb extra mana and raise ones level.

It is such an orb that Magnus has been tranformed into.

To those that care, I'm very sorry about the title, it's just that, well, it's very good to be blunt about isekais like this since people such as myself search precisely for this, so having super-serious names like "The Magnus of the World of Orbs" would turn people wanting a simple and fun isekai off.

I hope you give this story a fair chance!

    a very relaxing read to brighten up your mood on a crappy day and very fun and goofy,although the grammar could use some work

    A thing to take note of is that the author has a tendency to use the wrong nouns. story and characterization is a bit bland but otherwise palatable.
    Main character has a background but it doesn't seem to have that much to do with how he acts in the story.

    If the Synopsis at the top didn’t inform you, this Story has a lot of Wording/Grammar issues.
    The Premise was good, but the execution fell flat. Our Mc was reincarnated as someone’s mana in another world. Because he was a failure in his old life, he takes to taking care of the little baby boy he now inhabits.
    Sadly, this gets immediately thrown out the window, because our MC takes a decade long powernap.
    The story has little coherence or spacial awareness.
    After each chapter is a short history section about the magic in the world. I skipped them all. First off, it was boring exposition. Second: Please integrate it into your story properly. You had the right character for it to! Mistress Cromwell would have been an excellent chance to sprinkle in exposition over the training arc.
    Honestly, I stopped reading after Chap. 12. I guess Allan now has to run away, become a hero, throwing away yet another chance at building this story into something.
    It is now in Hiatus, but still, don’t read this. Sure, there are worse Story´s out there, but this infuriates me because it had potential to be good.
    All in all, a whole lot of meh.
