In a world where magic and technology intertwine, where gods walk among mortals and celestial forces dictate the fate of civilizations, Elian Drayven stands as an anomaly—an enigma hidden in plain sight. Born with magic powerful enough to rival the gods themselves, his abilities remain locked behind an intricate system, demanding growth and mastery before he can wield his full potential.

Raised in the futuristic city of Elyndria, Elian is a student at Astralis Academy, a prestigious institution that molds the strongest warriors and spellcasters. Yet, unbeknownst to his peers, he harbors a secret that could shake the foundations of the world. Only Eve, his ever-present AI companion, knows the truth: Elian is more than just a prodigy—he is a threat to the very balance of power.

When a sudden surge of uncontrolled energy draws the attention of the Celestial Sanctum, an elite governing force that monitors magical anomalies, Elian finds himself on the precipice of discovery. As factions within Elyndria mobilize to uncover the source of this mysterious disturbance, powerful figures begin to take notice—some seeking to eliminate him, others eager to use him as a weapon.

Haunted by the remnants of a past war that claimed his parents, pursued by forces that seek to either control or destroy him, Elian must navigate a treacherous path filled with ancient secrets, deadly adversaries, and an unfolding prophecy that ties his fate to the forgotten history of the gods.

As he levels up and unlocks the dormant powers within him, Elian must decide: will he remain hidden in the shadows, or will he rise and forge his own legend—one that defies both fate and the gods themselves?

ASCENSION OF THE UNKNOWN GOD.

As the bell chimed, signaling the transition to the next class, Elian made his way toward Mana Control Theory, a subject that many students found either enlightening or frustrating. The corridors were filled with murmurs of excitement—duels from the previous class had sparked countless debates about strengths, weaknesses, and hidden potential among the students.

But Elian paid them no mind. He had more important things to focus on.

Upon entering the Mana Control Hall, he immediately noticed the difference in atmosphere. Unlike the combat arena, which was filled with raw energy and competitive tension, this room was designed for precision and finesse. Glowing mana lines ran across the marble walls, forming intricate runes that pulsed with a rhythmic energy. Large floating crystals hovered in a circular formation at the center of the room, their radiance shifting between various hues depending on the magic being demonstrated.

At the front stood the instructor—Professor Seraphina Vael.

Appearance: Tall and graceful, with flowing silver hair cascading past her shoulders. Her eyes were an eerie glacial blue, exuding an aura of deep wisdom and scrutiny.

Attire: A dark violet robe lined with shimmering silver threads, denoting her status as one of the academy's Senior Instructors in mana manipulation.

Personality: Sharp, analytical, and highly perceptive. She is known for her unwavering discipline and zero tolerance for inefficiency in magic control.

Abilities: A master of Mana Weaving, a technique that allows her to bend mana into delicate yet powerful constructs.

Seraphina's piercing gaze swept across the students as they settled into their seats, but when her eyes landed on Elian, they lingered for a fraction longer than necessary.

"So this is the boy..." she thought to herself, her fingers subtly tracing the edges of a crystalline rune on her desk.

Her mind flashed back to the previous evening when Vice Principal Alaric had convened a private meeting with the academy's top instructors.

Seated in the dimly lit chamber, a handful of academy instructors listened as Vice Principal Alaric stood before them. His usual composed demeanor was laced with an unspoken urgency.

"There has been an anomaly," he began, his voice carrying weight. "A surge of power—brief, but unmistakable. We believe it originated from one of our students."

Professor Seraphina had leaned forward slightly, intrigued. "And you suspect Elian?" she asked.

Alaric nodded. "He has shown remarkable improvement in an impossibly short span of time. It is... unnatural." His gaze hardened. "From this point forward, I want every instructor to monitor him closely. If he is hiding something, we need to know."

The room fell into a tense silence before Seraphina finally spoke. "Understood."

Now, as she observed Elian, she could already sense it—the unusual stillness of his mana flow. Most students struggled with mana control, their auras fluctuating wildly with inefficiencies. But Elian's energy was calm, disciplined... almost unnatural.

"A fifteen-year-old shouldn't have this level of refinement," she mused, her suspicions deepening.

Clearing her throat, she addressed the class. "Today, we will be focusing on precision control. Raw power means little if you lack the finesse to wield it efficiently." She gestured toward the floating crystals. "Each of you will attempt to manipulate these mana orbs without direct contact. The goal is to shape your energy into delicate threads and guide the orbs through an obstacle course without letting them shatter."

The students murmured in anticipation as the test began.

Elian, however, had other concerns. He could feel the weight of Seraphina's gaze on him. She was watching him. Closely.
