Paragon of Mana

Ethan died, and was reborn into a world of Classes, Skills, and Mana. Reincarnated as Ember Blackstone, a descendant of a prestigious family of knights, he believed he had won the lottery. But the high society of ascendants can be cutthroat. With his lacklustre talent, he should have been ignored, left to fade into quiet obscurity. Yet, against all expectations, his skills and rank advance faster than anyone. Ember dreams of magic and a fulfilling life with his loving family. But when tragedy strikes, he has to fight to make ends meet. To keep his dream alive and protect those he loves, Ember must rise beyond the limit and become more mana than a man.  ©2026 K. Askoke.
