Sovereign Zero
In a post-war, technologically advanced Earth ruled by the United Global Authority (UGA), power isn't just influence—it's literal. Every citizen inherits a superhuman Ability, ranked and catalogued in a rigid global hierarchy. At age 17, all youths are conscripted into the prestigious but unforgiving Regis Institute, a brutal 3-year military-academy where they’re tested, ranked, and molded into the weapons of tomorrow.
But Kael Vire is different.
An orphan from the lawless slums of Sector 7, Kael has no known lineage, no rank, and no documented ability. In a society where bloodline defines worth, he is dismissed as a statistical error—until a violent encounter reveals his frightening physical prowess and unnaturally fast learning curve. Against all odds, Kael is invited to Regis Institute as a "Rankless," a move that sparks ridicule, curiosity, and quiet alarm among the elites.
What no one knows—not even Kael—is that he is the last descendant of the Vire bloodline, a family wiped from existence during the Great War. His power, long dormant, is a forbidden relic: Adaptive Growth, an ability that evolves in real-time, breaking every rule of the rigid ranking system.
As Kael rises through trials, war games, and deadly tournaments, he uncovers a hidden truth—the very system built to rank abilities was designed to suppress powers like his. Hunted by political factions, shadow clans, and ancient enemies, Kael must choose between surviving the system—or breaking it.
From zero to Sovereign, Kael’s journey is one of rebellion, rebirth, and revolution. But power always has a cost—and rewriting the world may mean becoming something far greater—and more dangerous—than human.
