Chapter 55 - CHAPTER 53 — “Null’s Second Awakening FULL RELEASE / Aizeno’s Final Truth / The Entity’s True Name

The world was already broken—cracked sky, trembling ground, air vibrating with an energy that felt older than creation.But when Null opened his eyes, everything shattered one layer further.

1 — Null's Second Awakening: FULL RELEASE

His body wasn't glowing.

It was devouring light.

His skin darkened like it was carved from the void between stars, vein-lines shining pure white like fractures in reality. His heartbeat echoed like a war drum—but it wasn't beating blood.

It was beating power.

D U's collapsed body lay behind him, unmoving.Hyung's remnants were fading into the dust of sacrifice.The Entity towered above, half-formed, half-present.

Null stood… silent.Empty.Cold.

But not weak.

The Second Awakening had fully unlocked—no restraints, no mercy, no "human layer" left to keep him grounded. His presence forced even the Entity to pause, its swirling mass recoiling like it had touched something forbidden.

The ground under Null's feet collapsed into a crater—pure pressure.

His voice came out layered, distorted, like thirty versions of him speaking at once:

"Second Awakening—Full Release.No more limits."

2 — Aizeno's Final Truth

Aizeno staggered back, face torn between awe and fear.

He knew this moment would come.He planned for it.But not like this.

Not with D U dying.Not with the Entity breaking through.Not with Null losing the final pieces of his identity.

Aizeno's eyes opened—both of them—revealing the hidden sigil he had always kept sealed:Three intersecting rings, the mark only those who had touched the Door possessed.

His voice trembled:

"Null… listen. You weren't meant to awaken like this."

Null didn't even blink.

Aizeno clenched his teeth, blood dripping down his chin as he forced the truth out:

"You are not a weapon created by the Order…You are the third seed born from the Door.The only one who survived contact with it."

He stepped closer, ignoring the danger.

"You weren't chosen.You were rejected.That's why you became Null."

The truth hit the battlefield like a shockwave.

Null's fingers twitched—anger, confusion, pain—but he didn't speak.

Behind his blank expression… something cracked further.

3 — The Entity's TRUE NAME Revealed

The Entity shifted its form, growing sharper, more defined, as if Null's power was forcing it into a clearer shape.Its voice wasn't a voice—it was a vibration that twisted the air:

"You finally approach your true state…Son of the Void."

Aizeno screamed:

"DON'T LET IT SAY YOUR NAME!"

But it was too late.

The Entity lowered all its faces toward Null and spoke the sound that had been sealed for eras:

"My name…is AZRAD'THUL—The Architect of Absence."

The world dimmed.

The clouds collapsed inward.Shadows rose like living creatures.The atmosphere bent and screamed as the name echoed, every syllable rewriting the physical rules around them.

Aizeno stared at Null with despair:

"If you remember that name…You will remember what you are."

Null took one step forward.

The void cracked under his foot.

He looked at Azrad'thul—not with fear, but with recognition.

He knew that name.Somewhere deep inside him…He had always known.

Null whispered:

"…so the Door wasn't your prison."

Azrad'thul's massive shape leaned down.

"No.It was your birth chamber."

Null's heartbeat thundered.His aura exploded again—shaking the horizon.

The Full Release had only been the beginning.

His true form was now starting to awaken.
