In the kingdom of Moonvale, your worth is determined by your mana core. The noble born are blessed with rare elemental powers, while commoners like Mark are expected to fade into obscurity. But everything changes during the Ceremony of the Eclipse, a sacred rite that reveals a child's magical destiny.
When Mark steps into the crystal pool, he doesn’t just awaken a rare core he inherits the mythical Heavenly Dragon Core, a power not seen in over a thousand years. Capable of commanding all known and unknown elements, it's a gift that could unite or destroy the seven kingdoms.
Suddenly, the once forgotten slum boy becomes the kingdom’s most valuable asset.
Under the watchful eye of the manipulative Head Priest, Mark is thrust into the world of nobles, politics, and the elite Magic Knights Academy. Everyone wants to use him. Everyone underestimates him.
But what they don’t know is this:
Mark remembers everything a painful past life, betrayal, and death.
Now reborn with the power of a god and the mind of a survivor, Mark won’t just rise through the ranks…
He’ll burn the system to the ground.
