Publisher's summary

A new weapon is forged in the defense of the Empire, a weapon whose blood runs true, but this blade may bring destruction to all he holds dear...

Amarl is a hizeen, a half-spirit, and the first of his kind ever to enter Askula Academy, whether he wants to or not. There, he joins the other novices seeking to become ithtaru, the supernatural defenders of the Umpratan Empire. He'll learn the arts of battle and magic, and the secret to the powerful abilities that make ithtaru an invincible force.

Askula isn't welcoming to any novice, though, much less one of his unique heritage. He faces challenges from without and within his school: jealous classmates, violent older students, murderous monsters, and instructors who will stop at nothing to forge him into the weapon he must one day become.

Amarl's blood runs true, and the power hidden within him is vast and deep. Will it be enough to keep him alive when entire worlds want nothing but to see him dead?

Askula Academy is a LitRPG magic and superhero academy fantasy set in another world.

good one...

So I was between giving this a 4 or 5star but ended up with 4 because of how much needles cruelty there was on the school by both instructors and other students and when we finally get the reason as to why that is the damage was already done and just made worse by the MC just saying okay makes I guess and it's never brought up again. and now the story is somewhat of a coming of age one and the MC is refreshing in that genre because he is not a moron or a complete idiot and actually knows how to talk to the opposite sex and wish there was more of that. honestly by the miof the story I was looking forward to the 2nd book but with the aftermath of the events on the hive and the epilogue I actually don't care if there is one because I probably won't be getting it. Narrator was just simply amazing and I will be looking for more of her work
