Spiritual qi revival arrived, and one after another, people began awakening supernatural abilities.
The official awakening tests could reliably identify only origin-type and elemental abilities. The one-in-ten-million “rule-type” abilities were so rare that there were too few samples for anyone to test for them.
Lu Yan was the exception they couldn't detect.
The machine registered only a faint wind-type signal, so the whole school assumed he was an utterly unremarkable awakened ordinary person. Yet when he sarcastically remarked, “You're definitely going to fail today,” his deskmate really did fail. And when he impulsively dashed into an old building, he happened to catch his younger sister as she fell from the third floor.
He always thought he was just lucky, with a sharp tongue.
He had no idea that he had awakened the rarest rule-type ability of all: prophecy, the power to see how cause and effect would unfold.
Then one day, with foreign enemies at the gates and a pocket dimension on the verge of collapse, he was driven into a desperate corner. His ability broke through to B-rank, and his prophecies became four words: speak, and it shall be done.
One word, “Rise,” and the collapsing world returned to its place. One word, “Stop,” and thousands of enemies froze.
Take in a younger sister with no blood ties, and defend the land called Dongtu.
You practice your ways. As for me, one word is all it takes.
