I felt a sneaking suspicion crawl up my spine. "The exam was way too easy." About 100 years ago, a strange meteor crashed into the Earth's surface, and a baby boy with special abilities was born shortly after. Since then, only fifteen percent of the children born after the meteor's landing had unique special abilities. Many of those in the newer generations trained to use their gifts to help humanity. But where there is light, there will always be darkness.Kenzo Langston enrolls into Dysnomia Academy, a school known in the underground world for its ruthless entrance exam and rigorous courses. With a variety of personal reasons, each student strives to be a villain that can stand up against the high and mighty heroes. What does Dysnomia Academy have in store for its students? Why did Kenzo enroll into a villain academy instead of using his powers to become a hero? How far will he go to achieve his goals?

In a world scarred by ancient conflicts between humans and elves, Key Creed, a resourceful half-elf with a knack for persuasion, navigates a precarious existence as a wandering salesman. Driven by a mix of wanderlust and a need to survive, Key travels from village to village, selling dubious products like colored water masquerading as magical elixirs and paper charms with supposed protective powers.Key's mixed heritage complicates his interactions; humans are wary of elves due to historical conflicts. Despite this, Key leverages his charisma and silver tongue to spin tales that captivate townsfolk, making them see him as a bridge to the mystical world of elves, even though his elven lineage is diluted.In the town of Edgefield, gripped by the ravages of White Iris disease, Key sees an opportunity to sell his latest creation: the Elixir of Vitality. Crafted from common herbs and embellished with tales of ancient elven wisdom, this potion promises relief from symptoms rather than a cure. Amidst the despair of afflicted townspeople, Key's sales pitch offers a glimmer of hope. Unbeknownst to him, his words begin to paint him as a potential savior in the eyes of the desperate populace.As Key engages with locals, including wary merchants and suffering families, he navigates a delicate balance between exploitation and compassion. His encounters reveal underlying tensions between magic and mundane, trust and deceit, in a world still scarred by historical animosities. Despite moral qualms, Key's need to survive and thrive drives him forward, blurring the lines between entrepreneurship and unintended heroism.
