We all have dreams of becoming powerful, becoming the cool mage that rules the world, living as the dashing rogue who can steal a kingdom's entire royal treasury undetected, or perhaps, the valiant knight whose prowess on the battlefield is unmatched by all.

However, when the apocalypse strikes, you can only use what you have at your disposal, be that guns, baseball bats, your fists, or maybe, just maybe, a shovel.

One young man who goes by the name of Darenzo has just had his world altered into one that is now the focal point of some sort of experiment.

Just at the end of his shift at the skip site, a worldwide announcement was made, that not only changed Darenzo's life, but also the lives of all of the Earth's inhabitants.

Can Darenzo survive and thrive in this changed world? Or will his growing madness best him? The answers to these questions can only be revealed with time.

[Goal of 2 chapters per week, the only exceptions being announced breaks or emergencies]

    free 5 star review just to ask: Anyone know any good basketball novels that are pretty long and i can binge read in a few days minimum? Preferably ones with good grammar lol. I'd prefer if there was romance/system tag in it as well, there doesn't have to be though.

    So far the plot has been good, kinda suits my taste. And in an early chapter, while it may sound like the vibe of Library of Heaven's Path (Mc assuming a non existent master, but turns out to be a real person), it won't last for long and kinda won't cause a real problem in the story

    The story starts out a little abrasive and *seemingly* shallow, but much like the main protagonist that is merely a defensive mechanism to keep its status as an ultimate gem.  The first 30 chapters were fun and generally light. Pretty funny too. After that those continue but I’m finding myself more invested and interested as the characters start getting more complex, real, and admirable. Real villains haven’t had much time yet, and I hope that they are done as well as the protagonist is (challenge there for sure). Thx and cheers to the author!
