Chapter 1 - REBIRTH OF THE FORSAKEN HERO

PROLOGUE — The Gate in the Dream

Haruto Aizawa was an ordinary college student.

Average grades.No girlfriend.A quiet life filled with late-night anime, instant noodles, and unfinished assignments.

But since childhood, he had one strange dream.

A massive ancient gate, standing alone in endless darkness.Carved with symbols he couldn't understand.Whispers echoing from beyond it.

When he was little, he was terrified of it. Every time he reached for the gate—

He woke up.

But as he grew older, the fear faded. Curiosity replaced it.

On the night everything changed, he stood before the gate once more.

This time, he didn't hesitate.

He pushed it open.

And the world shattered.

CHAPTER 1 — Rebirth

Haruto awoke crying.

Not from fear.

But because he was… a baby.

He couldn't speak. Couldn't move properly. His body was small. Fragile.

He had been reborn.

In another world.

Years passed.

He learned the language. Observed the culture. Understood the world.

This world was called Eldoria.

It was divided into three regions:

The Kingdom of Lumeria (Humans)

The Sylvaris Dominion (Elves)

The Abyssal Empire (Demons)

They had been at war for centuries.

And in Eldoria—

Magic was everything.

Children awakened their magical affinity at age 10.

Fire. Wind. Water. Earth. Light. Darkness.

Strength determined status.

Haruto waited eagerly.

He was different. Reincarnated. Surely he'd be special.

But when the awakening ceremony came…

Nothing.

No mana.

No affinity.

No blessing.

He was declared:

"Mana Void."

A person with zero magic.

In a world of magic.

He was an outcast.

Again.
