🏫 Scene: Raze's Dorm – The Day After the Summoning Trial
Raze is sleeping. Upside down. On a chair.His demon beast familiar, Velgorth, is doing squats in the corner to impress Kaelira, who is... very much ignoring it.
She's watching Raze with narrowed eyes.
"How can someone be so reckless… and still alive?""He's not normal. He's something else. Something... familiar."
📰 Meanwhile: In the Grand Citadel – Capital of the United Federation of Magic
Inside the tallest spire, the High Council of Crested Order gathers.
Archmages. World leaders. Political manipulators. Secret assassins disguised as bureaucrats.
A crystal floats in the center of the chamber.
It glows with Raze's face.
"Who is this boy?""A magicless anomaly. He summoned Velgorth.""That beast was sealed in the Forgotten Hell. There's no way he summoned it... unless he's... one of them.""Activate contingency protocol 'Abyss Veil.' Surveillance on the entire academy. Suppress him if he grows."
"If this is his heir… we need to kill him before Zalthegor finds out."
🎭 Scene: Raze Walking Through Campus – Now a Celebrity (Against His Will)
Students move aside like he's Moses parting the mana sea.
Fanboys call him "The Mana Menace"
Girls form a fan club called "The Crestless Crusaders"
One weird cult of freshmen has started bowing when he walks by
Someone sold Raze plushies in the cafeteria for 10 gold each
"Why is there a shrine of me in the girls' bathroom?"—Raze, emotionally confused but flattered
Kaelira walks beside him, sword on back, disgusted.
"You're enjoying this.""A little.""You're an idiot.""A sexy one.""Shut up."
🕯️ B-Plot: Secret Church Beneath the Academy
Dark robed figures chant beneath the school in a secret library hidden since the first war.
"The Black Flame has awoken. The Crestless King returns.""He will bring ruin... or rebirth.""Protect him at all costs. Even from himself."
They whisper his name as if it were prophecy:"Raze Vielhart, the Vessel of Abyss."
🧠 Scene: Raze is Sent to a "Control Evaluation Room"
The professors don't believe he's actually magicless.So they test him.
They lock him in a spell-sealed cube and surround it with 12 Archmages from different nations.
"Perform basic mana projection. We'll be gentle."
"I'll try."—Raze cracks his neck. Nothing happens.
Suddenly… all 12 Archmages collapse.
Their mana gets sucked out of the room.
Not absorbed — erased.
The cube melts.
"Oops."—Raze, confused, holding a slightly too-warm energy drink
⚠️ Foreshadowing: A New Name Appears on the World Map
Far away in the Ruins of Serathei, a shadowy figure opens an ancient book.
Inside is an illustration:
"The Child of the Abyss.""Born magicless. Crowned in fists. The son of shadows and flames.""If awakened too early… the world will burn."
The figure smiles.
"So… he's alive. Let's play, little Vielhart."
🐉 Final Scene: Kaelira's Warning
Kaelira corners Raze on the balcony.
"You need to stop being so loud. People are watching. Strong ones.""You scared for me?""I'm scared of what you might be."
She throws him a scroll.
It glows black.
"This was found near your summoning site. It's Abyssal Rune Code… from the old world. And it matches my father's sword markings."
Raze: "…Wait, what?"Kaelira: "Who the hell are you really, Raze?"
