Prologue

In a world where abilities could shape the earth, command the seas, or set the sky ablaze, being powerless wasn't unusual.

Many people never awakened an ability.

They lived ordinary lives.

The gifted became heroes, elites, athletes, and protectors.

The powerless found different paths.

Ana belonged to the latter.

She wasn't blessed with fire, lightning, or telekinesis.

She had no hidden bloodline, no prophecy, and no miraculous gift waiting to awaken.

What she did have was an extraordinary mind.

While others trained their abilities, Ana buried herself in books.

She studied harder.

Learned faster.

Worked longer.

When the entrance results for Sethrin High, the nation's most prestigious academy for the gifted, were announced, one name shocked everyone.

Ana.

Not because she possessed incredible power.

But because she had earned her place through nothing but academic excellence.

In a world obsessed with abilities...

She would have to prove that intelligence could stand beside power.
