Abandoned by Fate, but Chosen by Chaos.

A world where magic reigns supreme and the mightiest wizards stand at the apex.

A world where one’s mana affinity, if one even had it, determines one’s status in society, whether one could soar through the skies like a dragon or remain grounded, scraping by like rats or chickens.

This was the world Hal Fennec was born into.

Raised in the poverty of a border village, Hal had one wish: to give his mother a better life, one free from the constant fear of beast attacks and invasions by the Fellkin.

But fate seemed to be playing a cruel joke.

Despite being the brightest and most confident among his peers since childhood, Hal turned out to be barely qualified to become a wizard.

His natural talent, contrary to his expectations, was nowhere near enough to fulfill even his modest dream of a decent city life.

But then, just when his final hope was snuffed out and the future seemed gray and bleak, a twist of fate—or more fittingly Chaos—granted him a system that would turn everything around.

"Everyone, I've received the list from the Empire's designated senior scouts. Those who are interested may gather to discuss this matter of new Magna Prospects with me. However, please do continue to watch the matches if you fancy so. His Majesty will be the one to make the final call anyway, so there's no pressure," a bespectacled middle-aged man announced, hoping to gather and document the opinions of those present to help guide the emperor toward a better decision.


A majority of the people naturally went over, eager to join the discussion.


Only a select few old men, long retired after respectable service to the empire, boldly declined and remained in their seats with wine cups in hand as they waited for the short break to end.


"So, Morris, how many youngsters made the list this time?" asked one of the high-profile guests to the middle-aged man.


"Six, Lord Anzin," Morris replied respectfully, adjusting his glasses as he shifted his focus to the list.
