Henry was casually scrolling on his phone, finishing the last chapter of the novel Magic Academy. The protagonist and the four heroines were fighting the Demon God in a desperate final battle. In the end, all four heroines died, and the protagonist—barely alive—muttered with his final breath:
"I will come back again…!!"
Henry stared at the screen.
"...What? This is boring," he sighed in disappointment, locking his phone. He tossed it aside, went to his room, and fell asleep.
But when he opened his eyes again, everything was wrong.
His head throbbed painfully. His body felt unfamiliar. Memories that weren't his flashed through his mind like a broken slideshow. And when everything settled…
He was no longer Henry.
He was Ken Xeno.
The youngest son of the powerful Xeno family. He had two older brothers: the calm and talented middle brother Kael Xeno, and the strict prodigy Aster Xeno, the eldest.
Ken—now fifteen—was assigned to enroll in Magic Academy.
And that was when he pieced it together. He wasn't dreaming. He was inside the Magic Academy novel.
At first he wanted to scream, but somehow… he stayed calm. Instead, he crafted a persona: someone who always smiled, no matter what. Black hair, black eyes—traits of the Xeno bloodline—reflected back at him as he steadied himself.
He wasn't planning to change the story. He only wanted to watch.
But there was a problem.
He was weak.
Sure, he had a massive mana pool thanks to his bloodline… but strength-wise? Not impressive. And yet—another shock hit him.
He had a system.
Just like the protagonist, Art Maxel. Except… his system felt far more powerful.
A translucent panel appeared before his eyes.

Henry—now Ken—stood frozen.
Why am I so overpowered?! he screamed internally. Did the author seriously make me THIS broken? Well… I'm not complaining.
When the headache faded, he finally looked up.
The towering gates of Magic Academy stood before him—grand, imposing, and familiar.
A new world.
A new identity.
A new beginning.
This was the start of Ken Xeno's story.
