In a world ruled by Talent, he was born without one… or so they thought.

Every child’s future is decided at the Awakening Ceremony. Warriors, Mages, Priests, and Thieves rise to glory — but Kaelen Drayce awakens to a humiliating fate: F-Class “Versatile Amateur.” Mocked. Forgotten. Abandoned by the system that worships strength.
