"Special Admission, Rank 1."

That was the title on the golden invitation I threw into the trash three months ago.
Back then, I was the Crime Lord of Oakhaven. I had money, territory, and an ego that touched the sky. Why would a King lower himself to attend a school?

I was arrogant. I was foolish.

And I paid the price.

It took less than an hour for a single knight to turn my criminal empire into a graveyard. He didn't just defeat me; he ignored me. I was an ant beneath the boot of a god.

I realized then that my "power" was nothing but a joke.

So, I dug the crumpled invitation out of the mud.

Now, I stand at the gates of Zenith Imperial Academy.
Because of that letter, the world thinks I’m the strongest monster of the generation. The nobles fear me. The professors study me. The elites want to dethrone me.

They don’t know I’m a fraud.

They don’t know I’m here because I have nowhere else to go.

But I have one advantage they don’t see.

My Authority isn't flashy. It doesn't breathe fire or shatter mountains.

It simply... takes.

And in this Academy, there are four women, the "Four Calamities", who hold powers that defy the laws of this world.

I’m going to make them mine.
