Nullborn

In a world ruled by magic, power is everything. From lighting fires to rewriting fate, mana shapes the lives of everyone in the three great continents of Aetheria, Varnis, and Skeldrath. Status, survival, and even love depend on how brightly your mana burns. Except for Julian Alexander—he has none. Born into one of the wealthiest families in the village of Emberrest, Julian is a Null: a rare child born completely mana-less. To society, he is broken. To his father, a shameful defect. But when he's thrown into the prestigious Arcanum High—surrounded by magic-wielding elites—Julian tries to survive using nothing but books, wit, and sheer willpower. Until the day everything changes. After a brutal betrayal, Julian awakens with an impossible gift—the absolute rejection of magic itself. Spells fizzle. Weapons fail. Pain vanishes. In a world fueled by mana, he has become its one true void. Now, he no longer wants to fit in. He wants to burn the system that cast him out.
