CLASS 24 CHAPTER 1

In a world where 99% of humanity awakens supernatural powers at sixteen, everything traces back to the first ten - the legendary Guardians of Magic. But when one of them, the Flame Sovereign, betrayed his kin and became the Beast, fire vanished from the world... sealed away, never to return.

At least, that's what everyone believed.

Nesshou Genta is no prodigy - just a loud, reckless teen chasing the dream of being "number one." But on the day of his Awakening, the impossible happens: every test fails. No spark. No trait. Nothing. The same reading once given only to the Beast.

Hunted by forces that fear what he might become, Genta's life unravels in fire, blood, and secrets his own grandfather tried to keep buried. And when the flames finally awaken, the world realizes a terrifying truth:

The fire that was sealed away... has returned.

Now, Genta must decide whether he will be consumed by the same curse that destroyed the first Guardian Flame - or forge a new destiny powerful enough to change everything.
