In the elemental world blessed by Mother Nature, Denki Kusukube is the shame of the Kusukube clan. Born in Wind Tempest City, the City of Air, he’s the only noble without wind abilities. Mocked as a “lower Royal class dimwit,” his only pride is being the fastest runner in Wind Tempest Academy.
But speed won’t save his city.
On his way home from school, a glowing green orb with gale patterns falls from the sky and strikes him. He’s pulled into a void where Shao Lung, the seventh dragon of the Wind Tempest Temple, delivers a prophecy: In 3 years, Demon King Asura will unleash eternal blue flames from hell to erase the air clan. Asura wants the four elemental gems keeping the world alive, and he’s starting with Wind Tempest City because he sees them as weaklings.
Denki is the dragons’ chosen champion. Problem? He has no wind power, no element, and wants nothing to do with a “stupid quest.” He just wants peanut butter sandwiches and marriage someday.
Shao Lung promises to lend him strength when the time comes. Denki wakes up the next morning, only to find his mom threw the orb away. Late for the Gale Race, he sprints to the academy. During the race, as rain pours and he’s about to collapse, lightning jolts through his feet. Thunder armor surrounds him, and in one step—fast as lightning—he wins... then collapses, paralyzed.
Powerless but chosen. Mocked but marked by dragons. With 3 years until his city burns, Denki Kusukube must figure out why the Tempest dragons chose him, unlock the lightning now surging in his blood, and stop a Demon King.
