Synopsis
“Life was a game… but I always broke the rules.” Arav, a 21-year-old disillusioned youth from Earth, dies unexpectedly in a tragic accident. But death was just the beginning. Awakened in a mysterious world with no form, no body, and no identity, he is reborn as Kael – The Formless One, a Primordial Shapeshifter with the power to become anything. Gifted with the Limitless Morph ability, Kael can devour creatures, absorb their forms and memories, and evolve infinitely. From mimicking a serpent to understanding the jungle’s deadly secrets, his journey begins in a primal land where survival is war, and evolution is power. With the System guiding him, and a mysterious mission urging him to absorb 10,000 forms, Kael sets off on a path of transformation, vengeance, and discovery. Who chose him? What is the "Core of Origins"? And what lies at the peak of shapeshifter evolution? The game has begun. And Kael intends to win — by becoming everything. --- Would you like me to continue with Chapter 1: First Hunt – The Forest of Living Nightmares? If Yes Than Tell me in comments section

Chapter 1 - Chapter 0 – Death Is Just the Beginning

"Life was a game… but I always broke the rules."

My name was Arav. A 21-year-old ordinary guy, tired of the world. Same routine every day — college, assignments, fake friends, and a worthless life.

But then came that day… when everything changed.

[3:14 AM – 13th December]

I was walking down a deserted highway, staring at something on my cracked phone screen.

Suddenly, a blinding light appeared—

Screech… THUD!

A truck slammed into me head-on. I didn't even feel pain. Everything ended in a single second.

[Darkness]

"Was that your world? That's all it had?"

A strange voice echoed in my ears.

The darkness was so deep it felt like my soul had drowned in it.

My eyes opened in another world.

In the middle of a jungle.

No humans, no sounds.

I myself… was no longer human.

I had become something else.

My hands were melting, like liquid metal.

I could take the form of a small bird… or dissolve like a shadow beneath a tree.

"This is just the beginning."

I shouted… but the voice came out like a chime, in a liquid tone.

I devoured a small snake, took its form… and suddenly saw its memories — secrets of the jungle, other monsters, and a black crystal everyone called the "Core of Origins."
