Astra high school

In a world where magic determines status, the prestigious Arcane High School is the ultimate battleground for the gifted. Paul, a mysterious and seemingly unremarkable freshman, arrives with a secret-he was trained in the Dark Realm, a place where only the strongest survive. Sent on a hidden mission, Paul pretends to be weak, but behind his cold demeanor lies a mastermind plotting something far greater than anyone can imagine.

As nobles flaunt their power and elite students-known as The Holy Ones-look down on the weak, Paul observes, calculates, and manipulates from the shadows. But when the Dark Realm starts sending more of its own, Paul realizes he's not the only one playing the game. With betrayals, power struggles, and a girl who eerily resembles him, Paul must decide: will he fulfill his mission or rewrite the rules of this world?
