Water Magician

Water Magician (Water Attribute Magician)

水属性の魔法使い

Author: Kuho Tadashi 久宝 忠

Illustrator: Nokito ノキト

Raws: https://ncode.syosetu.com/n0022gd/

 

This is the story of Ryo, who was reincarnated in the world of swords and magic.
It is a story of the royal road to survive using the magic of water attribute.

What is magic? What is swordsmanship?
How does it relate to the laws of physics that we know?

Or what is politics? What is a nation?
Why are there many 『kingdoms』 in reincarnation stories? Will republics not work?

Can it be written …?

Since it is a water-based magician, so it shall start with 『Hydrogen bond』!

  • This is not a domestic affairs cheat story.
  • There will be no harem development.
  • It is not a science novel.
  • This story is a work of fiction.
  • This story is of a protagonist that is opportunistic/acts at their own convenience.

Please enjoy Ryo’s world that expands little by little. (T/N: Ryo = Stands for Cooling/Refreshing)

    I’m a little concerned you have run out of chapters to translate. Has the author stopped writing?

    • Ditzy informant

      I know it’s a little late but just wanted to tell you that currently there are more then 400 chapters of this novel and it’s seem to get updated once per day so there should be no shortage of chapters.

      • I’m more afraid I cant translate quick enough lol

        • Kiritsuna

          ファイト, but yeah, I don’t think you’ll be able to catch up or close the pace, you would have to go ultra instinct and make 1 or 2 chapters per day lmao

  2. Jose

    Does anybody know a novel similar to this one? It’s just because a ilke this type of novel so much :)

  3. Mariam

    Hi I just want to tell you that I really enjoy your work, your translation quality is astounding and the pace is delightfully quick. I check on it several times a day in anticipation for an update. Well long story, short: you’re doing an amazing job, thank you so much for your efforts.

  4. Leon

    Has the webpage formatting gone weird for anyone else?
    It looks like this in my browser: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MXMJbUEIsH2Y7fWEBW8k6O0l9ZjjDx-S/view?usp=sharing
    Most of the page is covered up by the right sidebar

  5. Leon

    nevermind, it’s gone

    • Crenshaw

      Love this novel. Thanks for translating it.

      • Yuby

        Thank youuuu sooo muchh, i love this LN, and once again thank you

        • Anonymous

          I love this wn it is so great conversation of ryo and Abel and interacting with others and ryo obsession with food ,sweet cake and alchemy and Abel being like friends listen it’s great I gave read it until ch 470 no one got know that they are king and premier Duke ….. They both are great for king and premier Duke and I have noticed that only ryo called Abel ,Abel and everyone called Abel king his majesty and ryo obsessed with coffe and being with powerful person with a cup of coffe ,,… They don’t how many connections they has maked but ryo mana capacity is so great i love it they both fight like siblings and protect each other as brothers it is the best webnovel I have ever read of about isekai

  6. Benjamin Williams

    I’m glad you’re back, thanks for all the amazing translations!

  7. Fumungus

    Elven slaves? The Debuhi Empire is on the bad Ryo’s side one more time….. IMO, the Bridge is something ordered by the empire. Soon or later Ryo will punish them, I’m pretty sure of that. Poor Óscar XD

  8. Bambang

    Love your translation dude. It’s simple to understand.

  9. Dorothy

    Im so down bad, I went to the raw website and used the auto-translate website function on my browser.

    • Lazy_guy

      Yeah, I tried that a few times. But always stopped after reading 4/5 ch realising how good Tseirp translates this.

      It makes the waiting worth it!

  10. Paget

    Thanks for all the hard work <3 this is such a good novel. Anyone know of any like it?

  11. Anonymous

    Love the novel!
    Is that the end of it?
    I hope there’s more.

  12. Morbidion

    Thank you very much for your work Tseirp! Late congrats on your child, and take your time!

  14. Lue

    Thank you very much for your work Tseirp! Late congrats on your child, and take your time!

  15. Helliacious

    I just caught to the series, it has been an incredible adventure so I would like to thank the translators for their work

  16. frost

    does this novel get dropped ?

    • NothingWeAre

      looks like last chapters not showing on novell page, but present on home page.
      WM translated up to 514 at this moment

  17. D

    Is there a map somewhere?

  18. E

    im kinda used to reading machine translated web novels but having someone actually translating it and with this many chapters is not something i have seen, also this novel is heavy on mostly politics so i would have died reading this without a human translating T^T

  19. eu sou do brasil e estou acompanhando trduzindo a pagina atraves do navegador obrigado tseirp pelos capitulos

  20. Rim

    this novel has some good parts and some parts where i was expecting more but came up short. tho it says slow life, so i wasn’t expecting it to be literally slow, in some parts. Seems the author hasn’t taken into account that there are some OP things Ryo can do with water, not just ice wall and making enemies slip using Ice Bahn. he can control storms and make hot water on a much larger scale, imagine going to war and creating a boiling tidal wave, or boiling water vapor to kill enemies. it isnt even stated if he can control liquids with water no? he can kill basically any life form with liquid inside them

  21. doru999

    mannn did you just remove dark mode on the site?

  22. Hello Tseirp, i love your translations of this novel (that i was searching after watching the anime coz is too good), i’m currently starting the Port Opening Festival, V.1, Part 5, and your translations are incredibly good and well made. I’d like to ask you if the chapters from 0585 to 0588 are inside the last part, so V.3 Part 4, or a new arc, V.3 Part 5 (obv if you know it, if not don’t worry). Because i was shocked of the quantity of chapters in that last part loll. Anyway you are incredible, keep up the work, you’re amazing!!

    • Kyamato666

    Where are upcoming chapters?

  27. Shynn

    Hola una consulta, desde que capitulo puedo seguir la historia después del anime? Porfii

  28. Nebula

    i haven’t been here in tseirptranslations since…. wow, i read growth cheat like in 2018? maybe… i don’t remember when it was being translated. i didn’t know you had more translations now…. maybe i should read this water magician as well

  29. The new website for chapter 650 is external.
    Should I wait for it to be internal or have the chapters started to be placed on this new website instead?

  30. BigJ

    Honestly such a good light novel. The pacing is a bit meh and it does get repetitive and annoying in some parts but the world building is great, there’s no dumbass harem. The mc is him and just does what he wants, it’s just great. I really love the politics too.

  31. worldtowerdefense

    I just wanted to say thanks for doing this translation! Love the novel and happy 700th chapter.

  32. Wtd

    Omg it’s me on a different device!

  33. Wtd

    Omg it’s me on a different device!

  34. worldtowerdefense

    I am very grateful for this. ive been pretty stressed recently and always look foreward to just being able to chill and read a chapter of water magician, or maybe growth cheat.. hi to myself on another device!

  35. worldtowerdefense

    bro theres so many ogs on this page

  36. HikariLuxx

    Hi Tseirp i have a question about the chapters and volumes of the Novel. On MyAnimeList the novel is listed as: “The Water Magician: The Central Provinces Arc” with 7 volumes and it says that is completed while here on the site the last chpaters are part of Volume 4 so i was wondering if the chapters you are releasing are still all part of the first novel so the “Central Provinces Arc” or are already from the sequel that is “The Western Provinces Arc”? Thank you and btw i love your translations so much!!
