At eighteen, everyone awakens.
Kellan Vey didn't.
No Class. No Level. No Skills. No Stats.
With a System Compatibility of 0%, his Awakening is declared a complete failure. By the time he returns home, the world has already moved on without him.
Then the lights go out.
A System appears in his dark apartment—one that shouldn't exist.
It searches for his Player Identity.
And rejects it.
Then it gives him a number he can't explain.
Previous Death Count: 17.
Kellan has no memory of dying. As far as he knows, he's lived only one life.
Before he can understand what it means, a hidden quest appears.
DEATH COUNT: 18 Objective: Survive until sunrise.
Then something starts scratching at his bedroom door.
A Level 3 creature enters his apartment—faceless, unnatural, and far beyond anything Kellan should be able to fight.
He has no Class. No Skills. No weapon.
Only a strange System that refuses to explain itself, and six hours until sunrise.
Kellan's first goal is simple:
Stay alive.
But if the System is telling the truth, his story didn't begin tonight.
He has already died seventeen times.
And somehow, he remembers none of them.
