The Discarded Genius Returns to End It All

Carlisle Ash is the lone survivor of the Termination Mage clan, a lineage wiped out long ago, and his trusted friend Noah and fiancée Vera sabotage his magic circuits out of betrayal. Awakening a rare power that unravels every spell, he takes the academy arena to confront them and their formidable mother Serene. Before he can settle the score, the school dean Darian, Noah's hidden father, kills Carlisle's cherished mentor. Rescued by Aelia of the noble Winter House, Carlisle enlists with the Arcane Sanctum to expose what really caused his clan's destruction.
