Respawn King of the Broken Tutorial

When washed-up speedrunner Miles Vale dies during a livestream, he wakes inside the shattered remains of an abandoned tutorial zone where the sky is cracked, the monsters are overleveled, and the System keeps trying to delete him. Branded with the glitched class Dead Beginner, Miles gains the weakest stats imaginable—along with one impossible perk: every time he dies, he keeps one stolen skill from whatever killed him.

The wider world of Atherion believes the Tutorial was sealed centuries ago after it produced the first Demon King. To escape, Miles must abuse broken mechanics, recruit other trapped rejects, clear corrupted boss dungeons, and turn death itself into a leveling strategy. But the more powerful he becomes, the more the System recognizes him not as a player or NPC, but as a returning threat wearing a human face.
