About this ebook
At eighteen, every human is assigned a path by the Prime System.
Warriors gain strength. Mages command Aether. Healers save lives. Rare Classes can turn ordinary people into celebrities, soldiers, or legends.
Riven Cole has spent years waiting for his Awakening. He does not need fame. He only needs a Class powerful enough to earn money, support his mother, and pay for the treatment keeping his younger sister alive.
Then the System destroys his future with a single message.
CLASS: NONE
CLASSIFICATION: CLASSLESS
No skills. No progression path. No guild wants him. No academy will keep him. As far as the world is concerned, Riven is finished.
The world is wrong.
Desperate for money, Riven enters an abandoned dungeon beneath Blackridge Quarter and encounters a monster far stronger than anything that should be there. Surviving should be impossible.
Killing it changes everything.
A second interface awakens inside him.
ASCENSION GRID ONLINE
Riven discovers that having no Class may be the most dangerous advantage anyone has ever possessed. While everyone else is trapped inside predetermined skill trees, he can acquire abilities from monsters, survive forbidden techniques, combine incompatible powers, and build a progression path that was never meant to exist.
But the deeper Riven ventures beneath Blackridge, the clearer the truth becomes.
The dungeon is hiding something.
The Prime System is hiding even more.
And whatever has awakened inside Riven has been hunted before.
Now the System has noticed him.
And it wants the Classless boy erased before he becomes something it can no longer control.
ZERO-CLASS ASCENDANT: CLASSLESS is Book One of a progression-heavy Science Fiction LitRPG series featuring a weak-to-powerful hero, dungeon exploration, skill acquisition, custom abilities, tactical combat, System mysteries, evolving powers, hidden civilizations, dangerous monsters, and a long-running progression arc.
