Original title: Katainaka no Ossan, Kensei ni Naru
Beryl Gardinant, a self-proclaimed “humble old man,” is a sword instructor at his dojo in a rural, backwater village. In his younger years, he dreamed of glory as a master swordsman, but those days are long behind him. Out of the blue, he receives a… visit from a famous former pupil who brings him world-shattering news—he's been appointed as special instructor for the knights of the Liberion Order! With his life now turned upside down, Beryl travels to the capital and reunites with some of his former students: elite knights, an ace wizard, and even an adventurer who's attained the highest guild rank possible. But why do they all want his tutelage?! As far as he's concerned, they clearly don't need him anymore.

I'd recommend it for watching Beryl discover that his former students are legends and that he is still the swordsman everyone wants to recognize.
It's a good fit if you're looking for fantasy, humble teachers and action with an adult protagonist.
What sets it apart from the invincible master aware of his fame is that Beryl believes herself to be a normal rural instructor, while half the kingdom holds great positions thanks to what she learned in her small dojo.
