Magic System
There are two magic systems at work in this novel. Over the course of the translation I have struggled how to translate them in a proper way as magic in Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de hasn’t been properly explained up until now.
- Majutsu (魔術) – This is the magic Renya uses. Basically it seems to include all elemental magic (fire, wind, earth and water). It will be translated as sorcery.
- Houjutsu ( 法術) – This is a magic system that borrows power from divine beings. As such it will be translated as divine arts.

“Platinum coin is 10 million Japanese yen”
Typical bullshit nonsense. Japanese yen can only be used to wipe your ass or burn in the stove. Above all else, it doesn’t even exist.
Exactly.
No exchange of goods, no exchange rate, it’s economy 101.
So it’s completely retarded, but used so often…
