In a realm governed by an unyielding System, where every soul is branded at birth with a Rank dictating their destiny, the concept of inherent worth has become irrevocably intertwined with an arbitrary letter grade. From the dregs of society, the F-Ranks, struggling for scraps beneath the towering spires of the elite, to the celestial heights of the SSS-Ranks, deemed blessed by the System itself, the world is a meticulously stratified tapestry of power and privilege. This is a world where your potential is not measured by your spirit, your resilience, or your dreams, but by the cold, unblinking eye of the System.
Born into this rigid structure, Riven Drayke was meant to be another cog in the machine, his destiny preordained by the Rank etched upon his very being. But fate, it seems, had a cruel joke in store. On the day of his awakening, the day when his Rank was to be revealed and his place in the world solidified, the System glitched. Where a letter should have been, there was only a void.
∅.
Rank Zero.
Unranked.
A System Error.
The words echoed through the sterile halls of the Awakening Chamber, each syllable a hammer blow against the fragile hope in Riven's young heart. He was an anomaly, an impossibility, a flaw in the otherwise perfect order of the world. The System, designed to categorize and control, had failed to define him. And in a world that thrives on definition, being undefined is the ultimate curse.
Mocked by his peers, abandoned by his family, and exiled by the very society he was meant to serve, Riven was cast into the Abyss, a desolate wasteland where the unwanted, the defective, and the Rank Zero mistakes are sent to die. It was a sentence of oblivion, a final erasure from the System's memory.
But the Abyss is not as empty as the System believes. In the crushing darkness, where the System's reach cannot penetrate, something ancient slumbers. Something that predates the Ranks, the hierarchies, and the very foundations of this world.
Riven's death was not the end. It was a beginning.
Reincarnated, not as the same powerless boy, but as something more, something… unbound. He carries the weight of a past life, the memories of betrayal and despair, but also the spark of a power that defies the System's very core. This power, drawn from the depths of the Abyss, does not recognize Ranks. It does not obey rules. It only answers to Riven.
He is no longer bound by the limitations of his birth. He is no longer a System Error. He is something new, something terrifying, something… Limitless.
His new Class: [Limitless Sovereign]. His Growth Type: Undefined. His existence: a paradox.
The System warns: You are not supposed to exist.
But Riven does exist. And he will not be ignored.
As the world bows to the SSS-Rank elites, those paragons of power and divine bloodlines, Riven begins his ascent from the forgotten depths. He is a force of nature, rewriting the established order, one obliterated ranking at a time. He is the embodiment of chaos in a world of rigid control, the ultimate disruptor of the System's flawless facade.
They called him worthless. They cast him aside. They believed he would fade into oblivion.
Now, they will call him king.
This is not just a story of revenge. It is a story of defiance, of breaking free from the chains of predetermined destiny. It is a story of a boy who was meant to be nothing, who became everything. It is the diary of the Limitless Sovereign, a chronicle of his rise from the ashes of despair to the pinnacle of power. Prepare to witness the dawn of a new era, an era where Rank means nothing, and potential knows no bounds. Prepare to witness the reign of the Rank Zero!
