Honestly? I picked this up because of the ridiculously long title—and I stayed because it’s surprisingly wholesome and fun. The main character, a redheaded witch who’s been labeled useless, is super likable. She doesn’t have flashy magic, but her herbal knowledge and kindness totally shine.
What I loved most is how she doesn’t wallow in self-pity after getting fired—she just quietly proves everyone wrong in her own way. The royal institution setting adds some light fantasy politics, but nothing too heavy. Plus, there’s a slow-burn romance vibe that’s really sweet.

Story :
"Ruzena Rezek, you're fired!"
"Everyone was just being considerate of you. You're a witch who can't use magic, and you can't even compound medicine!"
When the head of the apothecary workshop suddenly fires her, Ruzena not only loses her job but the place she was living, too! Then, by coincidence, she meets a noble named Eric, who wastes no time asking for her services.
"Ruzena, your knowledge of herbs is amazing! I've established the Royal Research Institute. Won't you come work for me?"
Having never been complimented before, Ruzena can't believe her ears. She agrees on the spot, but working for Eric isn't just about apothecary work...?
A class gap love story between a witch who can't use magic and an eccentric noble who dotes on her!

- Ruzena is the daughter of a family of witches but can't do any magic herself! The premise is familiar and doesn’t stray too far from the formula, but the characters and the world around them bring a breath of fresh air. I love that their meeting isn't necessarily fate, and our male lead has his own motivations outside of loving the protagonist. Their relationship develops naturally, and the supporting characters are given their due and their own backgrounds. The story has enough potential to go much further into the world, and I hope it does.
