"The Nullborn Who Stole Eternity"

Isolation_denty
In a world where Awakening determines destiny, Kael Vane is a failure. On his sixteenth birthday, while his peers manifest elemental powers and divine blessings, Kael's Awakening Ceremony ends in darkness—his core remains stubbornly dormant, marking him as Nullborn. Cast out by his family and condemned to the slums, Kael's life becomes a desperate struggle for survival. But fate has other plans. During a near-death encounter with a Corpse Devourer in the forbidden Deadlands, Kael's dormant core violently awakens—not with fire or lightning, but with something far darker. He manifests a Spatial Pocket Dimension, a void realm where time stands still and the dead never truly rest. His first skill emerges: Necromancer—the ability to bind fallen souls and raise them as shadows of their former selves. Alongside this forbidden power comes an unnatural affinity for Shadows, allowing him to meld with darkness, command umbra as weapons, and see through the eyes of the dead he commands. Now branded as a heretic by the Awakened Council and hunted by the Church of Radiance, Kael must master his grim abilities while navigating a world that fears what he represents—the power to defy death itself. With each soul he binds, his pocket dimension grows, his army of shadows swells, and the line between life and death blurs ever further. They called him Nullborn. They will learn to call him Death's Architect.

Surviving in the Demon Academy as My Novel's Final Antagonist

I just finished writing the last chapter of my novel, [Powering Through the Prestigious Academy With No Talent], where the final villain was defeated by the protagonist. This novel that I designed meticulously from head to toe...was now done. The protagonist shakily pointed his cold blade at the villain's neck, "Any last words?" The villain wasn't fazed, despite nearing his death, and smiled widely, as if mocking the protagonist, "No, nothing." "Just kill me." "...Very well.", and with one slash, the villain was killed. In the end, such an outcome was inevitable, no matter how powerful the villain became. And that was the ultimate satisfaction for any avid reader. But the next moment, I suffered an excruciating headache, and collapsed before I was able to upload the last chapter. Unexpectedly, when I woke up and opened my eyes, I wasn't in a hospital, nor my room, but a cemetery. I felt around my clothes that were getting drenched in the rain, and saw my dashingly red hair in a puddle nearby. My face was now completely different from before; my mouth naturally tugged upwards, and my eyes became slits as if they were sewn shut. Unmistakably, I recognized this appearance, which I had envisioned countless times. No, wait, why do I look like that guy? Where is my computer? My phone? Eventually, I realized--I'd reincarnated as the final villain in my novel! The ending scene of the villain dying by the protagonist's hands flashed through my eyes, and I remembered the words I said right after I wrote it. It's inevitable. "...I'm screwed."
