Zarek never dreamed of being a hero. His only wish was a life without hunger, without beatings, without contempt. Born with the white hair of a Nen, a marginalized minority with no magical affinity, he grew up in an orphanage where cruelty was commonplace. Only Rose, a fragile but unbreakable girl, reminded him that it was still worth moving forward.
When he saw a conjurers' tournament on the screen of a run-down bar, he knew what he wanted: recognition, power and the security of a decent life. But the world wouldn't make it easy for him.
After years of abuse, humiliation, and a brutal banishment from the orphanage, Zarek and Rose survived on what little they could scrape together in the shadows. But his destiny changed the day he turned 19 and took the Physioflora Aptitude Test.
To his surprise, it was no simple Nen. He was a Covenant. The first in decades. But his gift was not the summoning of mythical beasts or the control of devastating elements... his power was... creating bubbles?!
