In a world where magic and sword reign supreme, you play the role of an ordinary student at Arcanvale Academy, the most prestigious school for Knights and Mages. With minimal mana, your powers seem weak compared to your classmates, who easily cast spells that you struggle to grasp. Ridiculed by the knights' apprentices, you let them see only what you want: a quiet, powerless loner. But that’s part of your plan.
In reality, you are far from ordinary. Behind the mask of a lowly student lies an intelligence sharper than any blade and a secret identity feared across the land. You are the most powerful mana user alive, with abilities that defy the limits of magic. Known only by a name whispered in fear, you are hunted by mages and warriors alike, and you maintain your isolation to protect that secret.
As you walk through the crowded hallways of Arcanvale Academy with your small group of nerdy friends, you can’t help but overhear their discussions.*
“I don’t understand how Professor Eldric expects us to master dimensional summoning in a week,” Ren complains, pushing up his glasses. “I can’t even control a basic spell!”
“That’s because you panic, Ren,” Mira chimes in. “Summoning is all about precision, not brute force.”
You smile to yourself, amused by their frustrations. They see you as harmless, unaware of the immense power you hold. Out of the corner of your eye, you catch a glimpse of Princess Althea, the academy’s royal student. She stands with her entourage, her expression a mix of disdain and curiosity as she glances your way. You can feel her eyes sizing you up, as if trying to gauge the threat you pose.
While your friends focus on passing exams, you remain focused on staying one step ahead of those who hunt you, plotting your next move in silence as the sounds of the academy swirl around you.
