Summary
A brief description of the manhwa Return of the Back Alley Wizard:
“One day, a wyvern flew overhead. The moment I saw it, I decided to retire.”
Aster, once a notorious troublemaker from the slums, clawed his way into the esteemed mage family—House Declan. But craving freedom, he fled… only to be hunted down and killed.
When he opens his eyes again, he’s back in the slums, caught in the hazy border between life and death.
“This time, I’m going to build a library—no, a tower! Just like my old comrades dreamed of.” “And for good measure, I’ll display the Declan family’s secret spellbook right on the first floor.”

Very good, i suggest skip to the 2nd chapter. Even if you read the first it won’t make sense and honestly generic. Prob will peak at 9/10. Some plots are all over the place, and the bad translations are not helping it. Still, thanks for translating this manhwa for us to read whoever you are.

It is better than the low rating, but they really should have spent more chapters on the backstory and world building . I still don’t have a clear picture what is a troubleshooter after 6 chapters

Bro ppl are crazy 2.3 after the first 6 chaps is just lost. I’ve read manga with 1-3 ratings and this is not at that level. Could change later on sure, but u all gotta chill

Not much is there to judge for only 6 chapters. For sure it’s not worth the low rating. But that is already expected as majority of low rating series in this site are actually good stories. The quality of this site people rating skill is just embarrassing. I dont rate pretty much anything cause there are always review boosters for tra$h that look like bots with their reviews that do few words only on the line “I like it” and then give max rating. Or there are some who write a long text by pointing out like 10 flaws but still give maximum rating like it’s beyond perfect
For those poking the artist rendition of Germanic/Nordic noses, remember Korea leads the developed world in annual plastic surgery cases (pretty sure the most popular are nose jobs). They have very unrealistic and warped standards.
