Once dismissed as House Thorne's greatest disgrace—overweight, soft-spoken, and branded F-rank at the Awakening—Leon Thorne was written off as a failure who'd never wield a sword. No one expected him to rise. They didn't know he'd lived before. Across timelines, Leon witnessed his house crumble into shame and obscurity. Powerless in that life, he's seized a second chance to rewrite his family's downfall. Hardship has transformed him—stripped away the excuses, honed his body and mind until nothing remains but determination and steel. Now, lean and lethal, Leon enters an institution where only strength determines your path and bloodline defines your value. He arrives with no prestigious name, no noble backing, no safety net—only a sword, the scars of his struggle, and an unbreakable will. Recognition means nothing to him. Power games and politics hold no interest. Leon Thorne came to shatter his fate and rebuild everything—and he will do whatever it takes.
