Bryen Avilla always thought he was ordinary-just an adopted son in a famous Esper family, content to watch the world move on around him. But when his long-awaited school entry at the prestigious ESP Academy hurls him into a swirl of fiery tests, cryptic placements, and dangerous rivalries, "ordinary" goes up in smoke. Between star-flecked dorm rooms, mind-bending training fields, and an ominous whisper of "Rogues" who threaten the Cosmics themselves, Bryen soon realizes there's more to his strange powers than any routine aptitude test can measure. While his classmates vie for top rank, Bryen struggles with a mysterious, unreadable energy signature that leaves him branded as a lowly D-tier. Yet chance encounters with arrogant nobles, secretive S-tier prodigies, and an uptight professor who despises his "kind" hint at a deeper heritage neither he nor the Academy truly understands. Torn between a loyal friend with ice in her veins and a brazen new ally who wields fire and lightning, Bryen finds himself balancing tenuous alliances, looming threats, and the specter of a cosmic legacy gone awry. As epic competitions like RiftRush loom and sinister forces stir in the shadows, Bryen must rise beyond the stigma of his dubious rank-or risk vanishing into the very darkness that seeks to devour the world of Espers. After all, question marks can be deceiving, and the greatest power may lie in the secrets everyone else has dismissed. Where do Bryen's strange visions truly come from? What menace brews behind the Academy's polished halls? Discover a realm where cosmic gifts meet everyday strife, and destiny hinges on the unlikeliest sparks of hope. Will Bryen become the hero no one expects, or the outcast forever trapped by fate? Not the best writer(yet) been working on this since 2017, thought I'd upload it here into parts. Hope you all like it!

The Philosopher King once conquered the known world, his power seemingly unlimited and his armies inexhaustible. Since that time his might has slowly unravelled, and his once steadfast empire has begun to crack, splinter and devour itself. In the isolated Southern Realms, where even magic has abandoned them, none of that matters. For years it has been filled with warring kingdoms, where as many kings die to the blade as to old age, and constant battles tear apart the land. When one such kingdom invades its old enemy, the King and his heir, Prince Caden, are killed. Unable to accept the loss of his family Prince Arian is broken, and when the Philosopher King stretches out his hand in aid, Arian takes it without a second thought. When Caden wakes from death, he's different. His eyes and soul have changed, and he finds a world filled with friends who no longer trust he's even human. Suddenly thrust onto the throne and indebted to the Philosopher King, Caden has no choice but to keep going - he must finish what his father started, and try to survive the machinations of the figure who now owns his fealty. Meanwhile something beyond death stirs for him, desiring nothing more than to drag him back into its embrace. Author's Note: A King of his Own started as a completely random writing session. There was no purpose or direction, but as I kept typing an entire world began to form in my mind that I knew I had to write about. My plan is to turn this story into a veritable medieval fantasy epic that spans an entire world, follows multiple character and storylines, and takes place over many years. The story has quite a grounded, almost 'realistic' start, but many more fantastical elements will be introduced, expanded upon and become central to the narrative. I have ideas for this story that make me genuinely excited and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing it, and join me on what will hopefully become a truly massive fantasy epic.
