When The Vanishing began, Alden’s friend disappeared before his eyes. Then his brother, and then apparently nearly half of all mankind next. At the same time, practically all technology from guns and nukes to phones and plumbing mysteriously stopped working. Most who vanished didn’t return - presumably dead in whatever hell hole they’d found themselves transmigrated to. But the ones that did return came back powerful - from Demigods to Saints. The Vanishing can happen to anyone, anywhere and at anytime. With the time difference of the two worlds not being the same. While half a day passes on earth, millennia pass in the other. It can even occur to some people multiple times while to others zero. As you’d expect, the whole world completely changed overnight. The wife you went to bed with last night came back, just a few hours later, as a 3,000 year old Immortal being. Your child who you just helped get dressed this morning welcomes you back from work as an Emperor of some grand dynasty. The life and death enemy who had barely slipped by last time? Now a Saint of slaughter out for vengeance to those who’d wronged him. But that’s not necessarily an issue for Alden, it’s just that while everyone around him was busy becoming a god. He seemed to have been forgotten?? His best friend returned as an odd mix of Warrior and King. Some girl he trained for a bit, and seemed to have unknowingly charmed, awakened to becoming an angel with transcended powers. But, of course not all those Alden knew returned mighty, his brother’s whereabouts still being unknown. But at the back of his mind, Alden had a sneaking suspicion that the man wearing his best friends face wasn’t entirely his best friend anymore. The powers gained in the other world had an unknown price? Who could’ve guessed? CONTENT WARNING: The MC has no supernatural abilities for the first few volumes. I purposefully made him a mundane powerless to raise the stakes of the apocalyptic survival. But what I can promise is that when the MC finally does get his power, that it will be earned through great suffering and greater sacrifice
