Synopsis

Xelian Malkuri survived an abusive childhood with one truth carved into him: only the strong have the right to judge.

He clawed his way through the underworld, crushed every legend he met, yet never found the one person he searched for—his mysterious saviour. Even life as the adopted son of Australia’s richest tycoon felt empty.
So he ended it.

Instead of dying, Xelian awakens reborn as Dark Silver, a Grim Reaper trapped at the bottom of Death’s hierarchy.
In a realm where human strength means nothing and order is absolute, he senses one fragile hope: his saviour may stand at the top.

To reach him, Dark enters an elite Reaper academy where his kind are erased on sight. Hunted, underestimated, and forced to rise again, he manipulates allies, crushes enemies—and crosses paths with Shade Naza, a terrifying freshman whose loyalty makes no sense.

I'm still new to writing and therefore would not be perfect in expressing my ideas. So if you know you can't tolerate, fine. I'll still need the feedback though. 🙏

An exciting new anime style approach on the basis of Grim Reapers. The cover was done by Canva.
For this competition I would publish only the first arc, because I always write in arcs and can see this story going a long way.

I live through anime and I always wanted to make one for others to enjoy...
But this is the best I can do right now.

JSYN: I love using em dashes, I don't care if it signifies AI. This plot is too imperfect according to AI terms anyway.

{Jan 3}NOTICE: As stupid as it sounds, I used a different main character's name as this one's when i wrote chapter 0 to 2. Which I very bad, I've corrected it now though so hopefully no harm done. 👍
