Saga of the Thousand Blades
"Child without a core," whispered the servants.
"A calamity for the Voltare bloodline," the elders mocked.
At the residence of Duke Voltare, the evening sky always rumbled, as if the lightning refused to be still.
Under the grand roof, four children were born from the blood of lightning, three of whom emitted blue sparks from infancy.
Zinux Voltare, the eldest son, ignited a lightning orb at the age of three.
Iliya Voltare, the second child, summoned a storm while still learning to speak.
Zuban Voltare, the third, could control a lightning bow with just the tip of his finger.
And Rayne Voltare, the youngest. Silent, frail, often sickly, his skin pale like clouds before the rain.
Even when all Voltare children had shown their innate magical sparks, Rayne remained quiet.
No core could be detected, no magical root, no flash of lightning.
Yet, Rayne was not the type to give up just because hope was nowhere to be found.
He trained beyond his limits every day. While everyone else slept, he was still outside, honing his frail body and strengthening himself to the extreme.
No day without torment, and no night without fresh wounds.
However… in this world, if you cannot wield magic, even the saying "effort never betrays results," proven by millions, is utterly useless.
"As long as I am alive… there is still a chance."
"Even if the whole world rejects me, I will keep moving forward."
What happens when courage exceeds fear?
How does someone without magic survive in a world full of magical intrigues?
Follow Rayne's journey, challenging a magical world without innate power, and witness how courage and hard work can change fate.
