The Elemental system
Axton Backwoods has always felt like an outsider in his small village of Ashen Grove. While his classmates wield powerful elemental magic, Axton has never displayed any abilities of his own. Raised by his foster parents, William and Evelyn, his life has always been ordinary—until the day the academy representatives arrive to test potential candidates for their prestigious school.
Most expect to be chosen based on their elemental abilities, but Axton knows he doesn’t fit that mold. Without visible magic, he believes he has no chance. Yet, to his surprise, the academy selects him—though the reasons behind their decision remain a mystery.
At the academy, Axton’s life takes a drastic turn when he’s faced with a life-threatening situation and given a choice: to accept a mysterious System that suddenly manifests before him, or face danger alone. The System, a strange and enigmatic force, offers rewards, missions, and guidance, unlocking hidden powers within Axton that he never knew existed. These powers are unlike any elemental magic he’s seen before, and they mark the beginning of a journey of self-discovery.
As Axton navigates the academy’s challenges, he unravels more about his powers and the secrets surrounding his true heritage. The System becomes his greatest ally, guiding him through deadly trials and revealing that his role in the academy—and the world—may be far more important than he ever imagined. But as his powers grow, so too do the dangers, and Axton must decide if he’s ready to face the truth about his past and the powerful forces that seek to control his future.
