Malk. When you don't have a goal

This is a story about a provincial guy dreaming of becoming a mage, who, against all odds, sets out to make a name for himself in the cultural capital. However, instead of the expected studies and subsequent career concerns, he acquires cunning enemies, encounters mages and demons, dives headfirst into magical research, and... gets more and more entangled in a web of foreign and rather dirty intrigues. After all, it's so easy to toy with someone who just lives and has no goal in life...
