After Raph stabbed Zain's heart and Zain died.
Zain took a couple of seconds before he woke up and realise that his sword killed him.
"Oh, I died but I'm okay now." Zain said
[A/N: You can't say "Oh, I died" like it's nothing]
Zain realise that it's because of the Volitional Immortality trait that he has and it's ability didn't activite.
Trait: Volitional Immortality
The bearer does not age, decay, or perish by external means. Time, disease, and violence hold no authority over their existence. Their life persists indefinitely, sustained by conscious will alone.
Death is impossible unless accepted willing.
Ability: Chosen Death
An absolute act of intent by which the bearer ends their own existence. This choice cannot be forced, interrupted, reversed, or falsified. Once invoked, all immortality, protections, and continuance collapse instantly and permanently.
No resurrection. No afterclause.
"Damn that's an overpowered trait. Wish I had a System panel" Zain said to him
Zain thought to himself, 'Is this why I was forced to stay on this island to control my abilities and skills because I don't have a system?'
When you think about it like that, it's not so bad… but it's still bad.
It took Zain seven years to realize why he had been trapped on the island.
After Zain came back to life, he did nothing for two whole months, repeating only the basics of existence.
Eat. Shit. Sleep. Repeat.
After that, he decided to train himself in magic. It was no surprise that he could use all elements.
He felt most comfortable with Space and Fire. The Space element allowed him to bend space itself by teleporting to any place he had marked or could sense.
He liked the Fire element because it looked flashy and, somehow, fit perfectly with Dawn, his last name.
He began with mana control, which came easily to him thanks to his sword and martial arts training.
That's when he realized he possessed bottomless mana. More than that, his abilities didn't even require mana or aura to function at which was a massive advantage.
He also discovered he could use telekinesis by manipulating the mana in his surroundings, something the books referred to as a Mana Zone.
As long as mana could reach an area, telekinesis could be used.
He could even hear the voices of the island and most of them about complaints about the areas he had destroyed.
-Can you stop destroying the forest?
-Just stop your destruction.
-Are you trying to destroy the Island?
-Stop your destruction.
-This fool is killing us.
-Just leave this island and don't ever come back.
-This may be your home but you gotta leave.
Zain heard the voices but ignored them. Ever since he came back from the dead, he had been able to hear the voices of everything with will like trees, plants, even the rocks which is questionable.
For some reason, he couldn't hear the voices of fruits or vegetables, which would have been strange if he could.
He assumed he'd been able to hear them before, but only faintly. Death must have been the catalyst that sharpened his senses.
For the next three years, he practiced magic, training with all the elements, though he still preferred Fire and Space.
Eventually, he merged several elements with his own power, abilities that didn't require mana or aura at all. By then, it had been ten years and twelve months since he arrived on the island.
Zain decided to spend another year fighting the training dummy, using every technique he had learned.
He fought.
He lost.
He drew.
He won.
So it's been 11 years and 12 months since he's been in this island.
"So it's been 11 years huh. What's today date?" Zain said to himself
"Since I came to this world on 15 day of Sunstand and its been 12 years. That means today is 15 day of... Wait, I just said 11 years a while ago. Oh, it's been 12 months that means today is 15 day of Bloomreach."
'I keep forgetting that a year is 13 months in this world. I'm used to the 12 months.' he thought
"It's time to leave"
Zain put every book in the spatial storage he created and since he didn't have any other baggage, he began to think of how he's going to live this island.
"Oh, as long as I sense the location then I can teleport." He said after realising.
He closed his eyes and started to sense.
No weird hand on the forehead or Crossed legs style. He's just standing with his hands on a pocket.
"Found it. And...
See You Later."
Teleports.
-Finally the brat is gone.
-Yeah. Did you hear?
-Hear what? What's the to hear here when nothing changes?
-Oh, but the was change. He came before the brat but we belong to him.
-Yeah yeah. What were you going to tell me?
-Oh. Remember when the brat died? Apparently something happened there.
-You mean the spot he died.
-Yeah, There was...

[???????????? - 3rd POV]
Zain fell down from the sky.
He fell in the middle of a forest.
"Damn, I didn't specify my landing." He said sounding at ease.
Before Zain could stand up, ferocious beast surrounded him in all sides.
The Black Serpent.
The Dire Wolf
The Hellhound
The hybrid of some kind
After Zain saw all them, he realised something.
"I'm in the Black Forest" he said.
The Serpent tried to release the poison from its mouth, The Dire Wolf bared its fangs, The Hybrid one stood in defence and The Hellhound tried to breathe fire from it's month.
Zain's hair colour changed and the eye colour changed too. He said.
"DISPERSE or DIE!"
All the beast didn't disperse and Hellhound tried to increase the output of the attack.
"YOU'VE CHOOSEN DEATH"
Zain release the mana around the beast and the all exploded at once. Blood splashes everywhere including on Zain.
Zain's hair and eye colour returned to normal.
"Man I gotta hold back a lot, I can't even control my speech when I'm like that." He said.
Zain remember that he learnt Clean Magic because he didn't want to bath everyday. He used Clean Magic on himself and he was good as new.
[A/N: Damn he's lazy]
Zain began to walk out the forest.
"I gotta hide my mana and aura to not be seen as a free like that ugly Demon Lord" he said to him.
[A/N: Hope you catch my reference]
Zain began to compress all his aura and Mana in his body. After that, he put the layer of Space Element around the pressure.
Let's see what happens.
