Kaian, a mountain boy with godlike strength who can beat back fire dragons with his bare hands, is tested as "zero mana" at the magic academy. A mysterious letter leads him to Aethoria Academy — where secrets of his origin and an unknown fiancée await. On his first day, a glowing bracelet sparks a conflict, and he challenges the academy's top student to an Arcane Duel. To unlock the seal on his emblem, he must enter the Battlecasting Championship and claim the legendary Silver Sword. But as the tournament unfolds, dark currents beneath the academy's surface begin to emerge — and his past is far more twisted than he imagined. Zero mana — truth or illusion? What awaits him: answers, or an even deeper mystery?
