Aiden Kain was born blind—weak, useless, a failure. When his squad is sent into an S-Rank Rift, they’re slaughtered. He should have died too. But instead, he wakes up—and for the first time, he can see. The Hunter System rejects him, the Association can’t define him, and something inside the Rift changed him. Now, the world thinks he’s just another survivor. They’re wrong. He doesn’t belong to the System. He stands outside it. And if the world won’t give him a place… he’ll carve one out himself. This is my original work, also being published on Royal Road under HollowQuill.
