At the Magierakademie, Glenn Radars begins his service as a substitute teacher for the class in which the committed students Lumia Tingel and Sistine Fibel also go. But Glenn Radars, unlike its predecessor, initially seems to be lazy and incompetent. Sistine Fibel is disappointed because the hardworking student is enthusiastic about magic herself and strives to unravel the secrets of the mysterious flying castle, as her grandfather wished. Over time, however, the unusual abilities of Glenn Radar emerge, who in reality knows all kinds of magic, but holds back his own powers and prefers to fight without them.
