Chapter 1 - PROLOGUE: THE UNIVERSAL GLITCH

In the beginning, there was the System, and the System said: "Let there be Value." Every soul was weighed, measured, and assigned a number that determined their right to exist.

The world became a ledger of Mana, where the strong were Gods and the weak were waste. But the System made a mistake—it left a hole in the fabric of reality.

[Name: Han Jinsu] [Mana Capacity: 0.00]

In a universe defined by addition, Jinsu was the ultimate subtraction. He was the ghost in the machine, the silence in the symphony, and the error that could not be fixed.

While the "Heroes" built their empires on pillars of light, a cold hunger stirred in the shadows. The boy with nothing discovered that "Zero" wasn't a lack of power—it was the power to end everything.

You cannot burn what is already ash. You cannot kill what does not exist.

The countdown to the end of the world didn't start with a bang or a whimper. It started with a single, quiet heartbeat from the man who was never supposed to be alive.
