In the mana-starved world of Lexica, Kor Penman dreams of mathematical mastery and academic renown, determined to follow in his parents' scholarly footsteps. But his carefully laid plans shatter when a mandatory test for magical potential brands him as a candidate for the Voidflame Edict. Against all odds, he is sent to the academy on the nexus world of Conflux—a realm where mana saturates the air, and reality itself shifts under its weight. Thrust into a dazzling yet perilous society of arcane prodigies and ancient rivalries, Kor must navigate a world where his logical mind is both his greatest asset and a glaring weakness. Surrounded by students from mana-rich worlds steeped in magical tradition, Kor struggles to unlock his latent abilities and bridge the chasm between his intellect and their instinctive power. Will he master his fragile connection to mana and carve a place for himself among the gifted? Or will the churning currents of Conflux's magic and mystery sweep him away?
