Book Eater

Theodore Miller knows everything about magic… except how to use it. Just as he’s about to flunk out of Berghen Academy, Theo chances upon a grimoire named “Gluttony” that manifests as a magic-hungry creature on his hand. The more magical texts and artifacts Gluttony consumes, the more powerful Theo becomes, quickly making him the academy’s star student. Sure, he now lives under constant threat of being eaten by an insatiable parasite, but Theo is finally on his way to becoming a real wizard.

Pretty good actually, the art is special but fits well with the story. Moreover the mc is smart so go read it and enjoy.

Cliche magic school failure boy who is a genius in theory with no power finds a parasitic magical OP object that grants him abilities, he promptly runs around and has everything go his way: facing off against those who looked down on him, showing up teachers, beating school bully A, having support thrown at him casually by a trusted one, knowing exactly what to do and handling it all with a stoic "yes, this is fine" expression the entire time. It's exceedingly boring. I can't find any attachments to the MC, nor are the side characters very defined. His power is handled in the most boring manner possible despite the insinuated dangers of it, he literally just... "Oh, okay then" and moves on. Rather stunned at all the overwhelmingly positive reviews, seeing as I couldn't handle it past chapter 15. I'm sorry, but it is my genuine opinion that this is a bland, unseasoned, OP MC manhwa, not even done in a way to keep my attention... and I might've stuck with it longer if it hadn't thrown some random nekkid girl with nipple pasties at me for "fanservice" that was frankly laughable.
