Those left behind call them Outsiders. To unlock limitless energy, the Intergalactic Ascension Council initiates Project Fractal—a mission to send human minds into the mysterious 4th Dimension, where thought shapes reality. But only the rarest children can survive the journey. Those children are bred in secrecy, tortured in orphanages, and selected through blood. Solin was never supposed to be the chosen one.

Why the main character?!” Because in the end, the hero sacrifices him to save others. But Luca refuses to play along. "I’ll just ignore both the hero and the villain. No big deal, right? Easy."

From the depths of uncharted space, a mysterious device crashes into the wild forest of a remote planet. Forged from incomprehensible materials and shaped like a simple pen drive, the object is far more than it appears. Known only as Device X – Stellar Genesis, its origin remains unknown. No scientist can decode its structure, no machine can dismantle it, and no one has been able to activate it—until now. Nova, a quiet, average 15-year-old boy, stumbles upon the strange object after it falls—literally—at his feet. His world is small, defined by school tests he fails, sports he’s ignored in, and a life of almosts. But all that changes when curiosity drives him to plug the device into his old laptop. The result: total system crash, reality glitch… and a glowing AI named LUMINA introduces herself, not through the screen, but directly into Nova’s mind. The Device doesn’t need electricity. It doesn’t need a computer. It needs a connection. It chooses Nova, not for his strength, not for his intelligence, but for something far more unpredictable: potential. Merging with his DNA, Device X restructures its form into a sleek, intelligent ring that pulses with hidden energy and a locked reservoir of unimaginable knowledge. LUMINA, the sentient AI now embedded in Nova’s neural network, explains that Device X operates through levels. The more Nova grows, the more the device unlocks—enhancing his reflexes, his awareness, his perception of time, and even allowing him to glimpse fragments of truths no human mind should contain. But LUMINA is no mere assistant. She is the gatekeeper, the guide, and the challenge. She holds answers to Nova’s wildest questions—about the cosmos, consciousness, dimensions, and fate—but only when he’s ready. Just as Nova begins to adjust to this terrifying, thrilling new reality, Earth is shaken by a powerful energy pulse. Something… or someone… has felt the device's reawakening. Strange ships begin appearing in the sky, cloaked in black light and radiating a hunger unlike anything Nova has known. An alien race—ruthless and relentless—has come seeking Device X. And they will tear the world apart to reclaim it. Now Nova must unravel the truth about the device, discover the purpose it was made for, and survive the silent war that has arrived at Earth’s doorstep. With each level he unlocks, he becomes something more than human. But the price of knowledge may be everything he’s ever known.

"I will keep surviving... even if the world rejects my very existence." I woke up in the darkness. No warning, no clues. As my eyes adjusted to the strange light around me, I realized—this place wasn’t unfamiliar. Yes, I know this world. This… is the world of a novel I once read. A fictional world, where heroes shine and demons fall. But behind all of that lies a truth never written on any page: This world is hell. The difficulty level? Inhuman. There’s no interface. No hidden powers awakening when I’m on the brink of death. No lucky twist saving me at the last second. There is only pain—raw, relentless, and ever-present. My body is wounded, my mind shattered, my hope torn apart piece by piece… As if someone behind the scenes is savoring every second. And I know who you are. The Author. Yes, you, sitting calmly behind the screen, typing away, Watching me spiral deeper into suffering. You enjoy this, don’t you? Watching me fall. Watching me cry. Watching me break. Maybe to you, I’m just a story. Just a fictional character with no feelings. But I know I exist. And I know this pain is real. So hear me now. I will not die. At least… not yet. Because I will survive long enough—become strong enough—to flip this story on its head. I will live. Not because this world deserves to be fought for… But because I want to hurt you the way you’ve hurt me. So keep writing, Author. Because every page you write… brings me one step closer to taking back my own story.

"He who regret this life, he who wants to die" but things changed once he was chosen, back to his youth.
