The shadow king

Well this is my first novel so yeah it may not be that good as compare to other one

In a world where magic isn’t a gift... but a debt only the worthy can repay. In the year 3224, the sky changed. Magic returned — not as a blessing, but as a judgment. Through the mysterious phenomenon known as Celestia's Dream, only one descendant per generation awakens the dormant memory of a legendary ancestor. Vex Lugulband was never meant to stand out. Born in the lowest class, from a humble village and a forgotten name, he thought just entering the Academy of Olympo was enough. Until a silent mirror spoke. Until his blood whispered back. Thrown into a world ruled by lineage, power, and expectations, Vex must climb from the bottom — where names are forgotten — to where legends are born. No chosen one. No ancient prophecy. Just one boy… and the fire refusing to die inside him. But in Olympo, power isn’t measured by effort, nor talent... It’s measured by impact.

***his life had never been worse, hopeless, miserable...and alone. until he heard the sound... That small sound, like the chiming of a bell, Ding! Yes, that's the one, the sound that changed his life.*** He had always been the weakest. Laughed at by the villagers. Scorned by the hunters. Ignored by the world. Born without magic in a land where even children could tame flames or speak to beasts, Kael was a mistake in everyone’s eyes. He couldn't lift a training sword, summon a familiar, or even sense mana.

A chime. A bell, bright and delicate, like hope itself. > [Congratulations, Host. You have been selected by the SSS Rank System.] [Initialization begins…] His breath caught. His heart skipped. And the sky— The sky stopped crying. From that moment, Kael was no longer the weakest. He just hadn't awakened yet. ***The world of Aerthrial is steeped in mana, spirit beasts, and ancient legacies. Power is everything—measured in Ranks (F to SSS). Guilds protect the world, magic academies train the elite, and the strongest become Archons—those who command dragons, bend space, or rewrite fate. No one has ever possessed an SSS Rank System. Until now.*** **** Main Character: Name: Kael Ardyn Age: 15 (at start) Background: Orphan, magicless, often bullied. His sister died protecting him from a beast raid, and he carries her pendant. Core Trait: Empathetic and underestimated—kind but sharp, and he slowly gains tactical brilliance.

System Core Mechanics: SSS Rank System: Grants Kael access to a unique tiered skill tree, beast contracts, evolution paths, and system quests.
