Awakening Of The Unchosen
Richard of Condor was born into glory.
The son of two national heroes, raised in wealth, trained by private tutors, and destined from childhood to inherit his family’s legacy, everyone believed he would become Elkron’s next great champion. His parents earned their fame on the battlefield—his mother a master mage, his father a brilliant warrior—and Richard was expected to surpass them both.
There was just one problem.
In a world where every citizen awakens a unique power—fire, ice, strength, speed, and countless others—Richard’s power refuses to awaken at all.
While the other young recruits unlock their abilities and rise through the ranks, Richard enters military training with nothing but discipline, grit, and relentless effort. Laughed at by his peers and disregarded by instructors, he pushes forward through sheer determination, relying on skill instead of supernatural talent.
But destiny strikes harder than any training drill.
When war erupts between kingdoms, Condor is attacked, and Richard’s family—the very foundation of his life—falls in a single night. His name becomes a stain rather than an honor. His wealth vanishes. His reputation collapses. And the young heir is left with nothing but the weapon in his hand and the burning need to survive.
As the tides of war sweep across the land, Richard discovers that his path will not follow the others. His power does exist… but it awakens slowly, quietly, in ways no one around him understands. While elemental soldiers dominate the battlefield with flashy abilities, Richard grows in ways hidden and subtle, pushing his body beyond its limits and learning systems of combat far older than the kingdom itself.
He will not rise through talent.
He will rise through hardship.
He will rise through loss.
He will rise through a power that awakens one piece at a time.
And when the truth of his ability finally reveals itself, the world will realize:
The weakest recruit they mocked may become the most dangerous weapon the war has ever seen.
