Unbound Ascension – Coreless [System Apocalypse - LitRPG - Weak to Strong]

On just another ordinary afternoon, burned-out postdoc Cade Whitehollow lost his job. Moments later, he lost his world. Earth is integrated into the Multiverse as a seemingly all-powerful System descends. Humanity is granted stats, classes, and magic. Cade qualifies for none of it. Automatic System Core Formation: FAILEDClass Selection: LOCKEDClassification: Normie While others awaken rare Classes and powerful abilities, Cade is told he doesn’t meet the minimum threshold for greatness. He has no path, no potential, no future beyond supporting those who were chosen. But Cade has already spent years watching his ambitions wither in a lab—overworked, underpaid, and slowly fading into obscurity. He refuses to spend a second life the same way. Thrown into a lethal survival Tutorial he was never meant to enter, Cade must find a way to forge his own Core while monsters evolve and humans turn on each other. Because he didn’t survive burnout just to become irrelevant in a new universe. If the System won’t make him powerful— He’ll do it himself. ~~~ Release Schedule is one chapter every weekday (5 days a week) at 08:03 AM EST.
