At Death’s Door

TajayReid
In a world where unseen spirits shape reality, power belongs to those who can perceive the beyond. Born without talent, nineteen-year-old Damian Leviticus is branded useless by his own family and discarded like trash—sold into slavery and left to die in a fire meant to erase a black market. But death refuses to claim him. Awakening in a liminal realm, Damian forms a forbidden contract with Sophie, a high ectoplasm spirit whose power comes at a terrible cost. His first ability is not strength, but a curse—Absolute Return, forcing him to relive death over and over until he learns how to survive it. Trapped in an endless cycle of pain, betrayal, and rebirth, Damian must claw his way up from nothing, devouring spirits and defying the laws of the spiritual world itself. Hated by fate, abandoned by gods, and fueled by a vow forged in fire, he will rise—not as a hero, but as something far more dangerous. Because this time, he won’t die quietly.

Apparently, I had transmigrated into the world of "Hunter Odyssey", a trashy modern fantasy novel I read during my last military deployment. Worse? I was not the protagonist. I was Draven Mordis, a disposable orphan extra captured by a dark cult, destined to be castrated and turned into a brainwashed, lobotomized pawn in the prologue. Meanwhile, the actual "Hero" of this world, Neville Hennesy, is a naive, self-righteous idiot. I am a Commander. I do not play games. War is about efficiency, survival, and eliminating threats permanently. Just as the cultist's blade descends to claim my future, a translucent blue screen shatters the darkness.
