Once, Elpis was little more than an unseen slime, adrift in the labyrinth’s shadows—until a world stone’s power awakened something extraordinary. Now, forged into human form and brimming with untested magic, Elpis must navigate the treacherous halls of Lunite Imperial Academy, where legacy is everything and secrets simmer beneath a polished surface. Adopted by noble hearts yet eyed with suspicion for his uncanny origins, Elpis finds allies in the clever Rio, steadfast Marian, and others who recognize his brilliance. But even among friends and glittering lectures, danger coils: the Seven Star Families, jealous of Elpis’s gifts, plot in the shadows, while forbidden magics surface in deadly duels and betrayals. When Professor Silnuncae reveals a monstrous ambition—and the Apostles of Darkness unleash chaos upon the academy—Elpis is thrust from prodigy to the last line of defense. Transformed by loss, friendship, and the fire of battle, Elpis must harness powers both wondrous and terrifying—surviving a Titan’s heart, awakening the might of dragons, and facing adversaries who wield destruction as easily as breath. As the empire reels and a new era dawns, Elpis is left with a single question: in a world where identity is ever-shifting, who will he become next? Step into a tale where monsters wear many faces, magic remakes the world, and hope is born from the unlikeliest of heroes. Will Elpis rise above the darkness—or be consumed by it? **Original Novel:** [Naver Series](https://series.naver.com/novel/detail.series?productNo=10834332), [KakaoPage](https://page.kakao.com/content/65821045), [RIDI](https://ridibooks.com/books/2008049904), [Joara](https://www.joara.com/book/1792043) **Official Translations:** English
