The Mage of Primordial Chaos

"Shit..." I muttered under my breath, after getting whacked on the head with a textbook.

"What was that?" my teacher at Shenzhen Magic High School, Mr. Wang, said with a quirked eyebrow.

"Uh...I said hit. I meant to say 'you hit me'," I replied, hoping to cover it up.

"The next time you start daydreaming in class, it won't be as simple as just a 'hit'. I will have you expelled from the school. You're useless anyway, and don't have any magic power at all. What's the point of being at this high school? Tch."

"Mr. Wang, you shouldn't bother yourself with trash like him," my classmate, Li Yi Fei, interjects. "His stupidity may be contagious!"

Laughter erupted throughout the class. Insults came flying toward me faster than Voltage Strike, a Sky Element spell famous for being on par with a real lightning bolt in terms of speed.

"Look at his pitiful face, he can't even deny anything we say!"

"Why don't you just get out of the school on your own before you are forced to? At least you'll save some face that way."

"Something, er no - someone, really reeks, almost like trash! Hahaha!"

Then, in the midst of insults and slanders, a clear voice cut through the humiliation.

"That's enough...stop bullying him," Yu An Xue, a female classmate of mine, said. The commonly acknowledged campus belle with her angelic looks and beautiful figure, as well as the daughter of one of the Four Great Families of Shenzhen, a well-known city near the Magic Capital, Shanghai.

The laughter died out, and the classroom returned to normal, more or less.

"Tch. You're lucky this time around, Fei Wu Kai. Getting your ass saved by a girl, how heroic," Zhang Zhe Rui, the top lackey of Li Yi Fei, said harshly. He then turned to Li Yi Fei and immediately changed his tone to that of a servant to his master. "Brother Li, let's let him go for this time, he won't survive for much longer anyway."

Fei Wu Kai was one of the commonly known nicknames for me. Basically, it means 'trash Kai', except they turned it into a name.

"Of course. Since Lady Yu said so, we will comply," Li Yi Fei said, doing what he does best - picking up girls using his background and money. Fortunately - well, unfortunately for Li Yi Fei - Yu An Xue is a cool beauty, and with her family status, how could a boy like Li Yi Fei sway her? Sure, Li Yi Fei is also from one of the Four Great Families, the Li family, but he's going to need more than that to pick up Yu An Xue.

"..."

Yu An Xue gave no response, just as I had expected. How do I know these things, you ask? Well, let's just say I have...experience. A lot of it. If there's anything I'm not missing, it's the experience of getting treated like an insect. Talent? Status? Money? Hell, even the most basic, no matter how minimal, magical powers? I have none of it. I was treated this way ever since I was born, and was tragically tested that I had no awoken element from birth. The servants were ordered to keep their mouths shut, but...some people wanted to see my parents fall.

As soon as the news was spread, the family neglected me in order to protect its reputation as one of the Four Great Families, the Xuan family. I had no friends, no wealth, no status. I was just a maggot exiled from my own family, simply because I had no magical powers.

I guess you could say I am quite the rare species, considering no one in this entire universe before has ever been tested at their birth and ended up receiving a result of not even a trace of magical power - such news would spread like wildfire like it did with me, after all...and so far? I haven't heard anything.

Now, you might be wondering, wouldn't magic researchers be dying to use me as a lab rat? Haha, no. Even  they want nothing to do with me. But well, I guess this was a good thing, in it's own right. I would rather be all alone than some mad scientist's guinea pig.

My parents were the only thing I had. Even if I was trash, my parents never abandoned me. They've worked hard over the years and managed to at least support my daily life and get me into this magic high school. To a boy with nothing else, his parents are his everything.

...And that, not long ago, was taken away from me too.
