As a child, he was a prodigy drowning in praise. But the normal world had no place for him as an adult. Unemployed and outcast, he spent his days reading web novels, praying for the apocalypse—for gates to open and monsters to pour through. Then, his wish came true. The System awakened. But the world left him behind yet again. He wasn't chosen. Instead, his grandmother, his mother, and his childhood sweetheart all awakened as powerful Hunters. He remained a powerless burden. Out of pure love, they shielded him. But to a former genius, their protective embrace became a suffocating prison that completely shattered his pride, turning his mind twisted and bitter. His despair turned into absolute malice. If the universe refused to grant him a System, he would take them by force. He doesn't have a status menu. He has hatred and a singular, terrifying instinct: he hunts the Chosen and devours their systems. Every hunter he slaughters makes him stronger. He isn't fighting for survival. He is going to tear the System apart, annihilate the world that mocked him, and reset everything from scratch. The world shall know pain.
