Alex loves the gym, the stars, and his family above all else. The System arrives in the middle of Thanksgiving dinner and drags him into danger he never asked for. Now Alex has to grow strong enough to keep his family safe from whatever the tutorial throws at them, monsters, rival factions, even gods, before any of it costs him the people he loves. Alex starts off as just a common human, but within a matter of days, he becomes someone who can control thermal energy and gravity, eventually becoming powerful enough to create miniature stars in the palm of his hand.
