Reborn as the Demon King's Bastard Son!

Xerxes Kingsley, born with modern memories and the forbidden blood of a royal high elf and a demon dragon, survives the Harrowing and earns entry to the Imperial Drakon Academy. Assigned to fallen House Obsidian, he defeats its champions, forges insect-born artifacts, exposes corruption, and becomes the Obsidian Vanguard. Now, with the Inter-House Invitational beginning, the academy, Ministry, and Graves family move against him while his squad hides a traitor. Having mastered powers that can bypass the Graves’ Labyrinth nullifier, Xerxes enters the tournament ready to reveal the dragon within.
