Synopsis
For years, Connor Rojo was nothing more than a shadow in the halls of St. Helena's Academy. An introverted, unremarkable student, he lived at the mercy of his bullies, ignored by his peers, and shackled by the weight of his own inadequacies. Every day was a routine of survival, not living—a monotonous grind that dulled his spirit and buried his dreams under the rubble of ridicule and rejection. The world had written Connor off, and he had accepted it. That is, until the summer before Year 11 changed everything. One fateful night, while Connor was locked away in his room, resigned to another solitary summer, a system appeared in his mind—an otherworldly interface called the OmniCore System. Designed to grant its user unlimited potential, the system offered Connor what he never dreamed possible: power. Not just physical strength or social charisma, but infinite power—limited only by his imagination and willingness to seize it. With quests to guide him, stats to build, and abilities to unlock, Connor’s life became a game, and for the first time, he had the tools to play it his way. But power doesn’t come without consequences. As Connor explored the system’s limits, he discovered its origins shrouded in mystery. Was it a gift from a higher entity? An alien experiment? Or something far more dangerous? With every quest completed and every skill unlocked, the stakes grew higher. Connor’s newfound abilities transformed him from a meek, forgotten boy into a force to be reckoned with, but his journey was just beginning. As the school year started, Connor returned to St. John’s Academy a changed man—stronger, smarter, and no longer content to be overlooked. No longer satisfied with survival, he set his sights on something far greater: domination. He would turn the school into his kingdom, with himself as its undisputed ruler. His bullies? They’d kneel before him. His detractors? They’d become his pawns. And those who stood in his way? They’d feel the full force of the system’s wrath. From subtle manipulation to devastating displays of power, Connor began reshaping the social fabric of the school. Allies were forged, enemies crushed, and the unthinkable became reality as Connor carved out his place at the top. Yet, even as his ambitions grew, so did the challenges. The system’s true purpose began to unravel, revealing enemies beyond comprehension—forces that sought to control, claim, or destroy what he now possessed. As Connor rose from the shadows, his quest for control expanded beyond the confines of his school. Wealth, influence, and loyalty became his tools as he set his sights on the world stage. Governments, corporations, and entire nations would fall under his sway. But with such immense power came dangerous questions: Could he hold on to his humanity? Would he use his abilities to create a better world, or would vengeance and ambition consume him entirely? From Shadows to Sovereign is a gripping tale of transformation, ambition, and the intoxicating allure of power. It’s the story of a boy who was invisible to the world, thrust into the role of a god in the making. As Connor walks the fine line between savior and tyrant, readers will be captivated by his journey—from the quiet halls of his school to the vast expanse of global domination. Will Connor rise as the leader humanity needs, or will he become its greatest threat? In this thrilling exploration of revenge, morality, and ultimate power, one thing is certain: Connor’s world—and the world itself—will never be the same.

Chapter 1 - System Details

The first day of Year 11.

The air was crisp and cool, the kind of autumn morning that made the summer feel like a distant dream. Connor walked the distant and familiar path to St Helena's academy. As he turned the corner to the school, he could hear the faint sound of his fellow students chattering a short distance away.

The sound of cars passing by as parents dropped their children off, Year 7's nervously walking through those big, intimidating gates for the first time as they are towered over by the other students. It was the same start to a new school year as it had always been.

So ordinary. So mundane.

But this time, it was all different.

Connor slapped his hands into his pockets as a smirk crept onto his face. At the end of last year, he was one of the most unpopular and bullied kids in school. Whether it was his ugly face, scruffy hair, yellow and broken teeth, or his stomach which stretched out further than should be possible on a sixteen year old boy. He was picked on for all of it.

Now though, his face had become one from a fairy-tale. His hair has turned silky and nearly combed to the side. His teeth were perfect and white. And his build went from morbidly obese to muscular and fit. He'd even grown from 5ft 6 to 5ft 3.

At first glance, no one would be able to recognise him. And it was all thanks to the power he gained over the summer.

'System open,' Connor commanded in his mind.

Suddenly, a blue transparent screen appeared in front of him. Only he could see it, so all the students around him didn't react as a normal person would if a video game like system appeared in front of them.
