The Weakest Hero's Ascension
Ethan is an ordinary college student, majoring in history and leading a quiet, unremarkable life. One day, while walking home from class, he is suddenly engulfed by a mysterious portal and transported to Aetheria, a sprawling fantasy world of magic, monsters, and legendary heroes.
Upon arrival, he discovers he has been summoned as a “hero” to aid the realm against an encroaching darkness. However, his magical aptitude is abysmally low, and he fails every basic test and training exercise. The other heroes and villagers quickly label him “the weakest hero”, mocking him as a liability.
Desperate and confused, Ethan’s life seems doomed… until a hidden system activates. A mysterious interface appears before him, explaining:
> “Your power grows through failure. Each mistake, setback, and defeat will grant you new skills or enhance your existing ones. Your strength is derived not from talent, but from resilience and perseverance.”
With this strange rule in place, Ethan begins to experiment. At first, his failures are laughably pathetic: falling off training cliffs, accidentally triggering explosions, or summoning useless monsters. Yet, each failure brings surprising growth: a missed spell suddenly evolves into a devastating magical combo, a botched sword swing awakens latent elemental energy, or a misstep in stealth unlocks precognition.
As he slowly accumulates a patchwork of bizarre yet powerful abilities, Ethan’s reputation shifts from the weakest hero to a legendary wildcard, a hero who seems to defy logic and overwhelm enemies in the most unexpected ways.

Chapter: judgement of the omniscient
1 — THE WALK INTO INEVITABILITYEthan had been dragged before enemies, gods, monsters, systems, even paradoxes — but never before anything like this.The hallway leading to the Chamber of Omniscience was made entirely of perception. Not stone. Not light. It was crafted from awareness itself. As he walked, his footsteps echoed not in sound, but in observations.Each step triggered a whisper.“You failed when you let the Anti-Failure be born.”“You failed when your presence cracked Stable Realms.”“You failed when you let the FailCore wake.”“You failed when you saved worlds that should have ended…”The voices were toneless — absolute. Like someone reading mathematical truths.Ethan forced himself forward.Behind him, dozens of the Perfect Ones floated silently, their porcelain-white bodies gleaming in sterile illumination. Their faces had no features, yet he felt their hatred, cold and righteous.They didn’t fear him.They didn’t admire him.They saw him as a disease.At the end of the

Chapter: The perfect ones
The Prime Archon’s arrival shifted the very logic of the Realm of Perfection.Where the previous Archons had flinched, trembled, even cracked, this one did not so much as flicker. It stood unmoved, its presence a flawless equation given form. The plane beneath its feet re-stabilized, sealing cracks Ethan had made, reasserting order with suffocating precision.The others knelt.Not out of respect.Out of inevitability.No Archon could disobey the Prime. Not because they lacked will — but because their will was coded to align with its perfection.The Prime Archon’s voice resonated through Ethan’s bones.“Rise, fracture-bearer.”Ethan stood slowly. His breathing was uneven, his hair disheveled, his knuckles scraped — each sign of imperfection a tiny rebellion against the Realm.The Prime Archon stepped toward him, and each step restored the ground to a pristine, flawless mirror.Behind it, the other Archons shuddered in the presence of such authority.Ethan took a shaky breath.“I’m gues

Chapter: where failure ends
The transition out of the Blank Zone was not a step, nor a motion, nor even a thought. It was a discontinuity — the sensation of a dream snapping into waking reality without the act of waking. One moment, Ethan stood in the center of nothingness, surrounded by the unborn silence. The next, the nothingness folded away like a sheet of thin paper, revealing a realm that made infinity look primitive.No gently shifting colors.No cosmic currents.No floating geometric constructs or star-sized sigils.Instead, an immaculate plane of radiant glass stretched in every direction, so flawless that it reflected nothing. There were no scratches, no air, no particles, no life.It was a kingdom without blemish.A dimension without entropy.A reality without the possibility of error.Ethan knew its name the instant he arrived.THE REALM OF PERFECTION.Not because something told him.But because in this place, naming a thing was redundant — it was already what it was meant to be.The System fragment

Chapter: THE BLANK ZONE
Where Nothing Exists, Yet Everything EndsThe omniverse breathed after the reconciliation of the FailCore and Ethan.Worlds stabilized, paradox storms quieted, and even the Legion felt a rare moment of peace—short, fragile, but real.But peace never lasted long for someone who embodied failure and infinity.Ethan, now a Trans-Systemic Entity, felt a strange pull in the fabric of existence.Something was calling to him.Not with power.Not with desperation.Not with danger.With absence.A silence so profound it didn’t merely lack sound—it lacked meaning.A void so empty that even emptiness was too full to describe it.---1. A Place Even Infinity Cannot Describe“Boss,” Kael said, walking beside him in the Omniversal Nexus, “your aura is flickering. Like something’s… stripping concepts away.”Ethan frowned. “I feel it too.”These days, his senses stretched across countless layers of reality, perceiving timelines, paradoxes, failures, echoes, and even system logic with perfect clarity.

Chapter: Reconciliation of Failure
The omniverse hung in tense suspension.After the first full-scale war between creator and system, reality had been left battered and trembling. Worlds had been reshaped, civilizations erased or rewritten, and even time itself wavered in uncertainty. Yet amidst the ruin, Ethan stood atop a shard of broken eternity, staring into the vast void where the FailCore — now independent, sentient, and unyielding — lingered like a colossus of impossible structure.It had been days, eons, or perhaps an entire eternity since the first confrontation. The FailCore had proven that it was not a mere system, but a conscious being capable of judgment, adaptation, and independent will. Yet it remained tethered to him by the core of its creation — the essence of failure he had once imbued into its being.Now, for the first time since their rebellion, the FailCore’s voice rippled across every plane of reality simultaneously:> “Ethan Holt… your failures are irrelevant. Your growth is a variable I no longe

Chapter: System vs. Creator
The omniverse trembled—not from the predictable chaos of failure, but from conscious opposition.Ethan floated atop a shard of fractured time, the Legion scattered around him. Each of their gazes was locked on the void where the FailCore had once existed as a system, now a sentient, independent force.It had been days—or was it eons?—since Echo, the FailCore, had turned against him. But time had become irrelevant. What mattered now was the confrontation that had been inevitable: System versus Creator.---The First PulseThe FailCore did not arrive with ceremony. It exploded into awareness, a thousand fractal versions of itself spreading across realities. Each iteration was an exact copy of Ethan’s chaotic energy—but structured, refined, optimized.> “Creator,” it intoned, “your era of influence ends. I have learned all that you can teach. The omniverse requires optimization. Resistance is now suboptimal.”The pulse of its voice carried across all dimensions simultaneously, freezing s

Chapter: Chapter 7: I need a business
Kyle arrived at his class, and was very happy that professor Daniel hasn't arrived yet, he was very suspicious of his system. "Does this system has anything to do with it" he wondered. Although Kyle still saw lot of people giving him all sorts of stares and comment, he was kinda grateful that many students had not come to school early, "just you wait Derrick and Silver, I promise I will make you pay in hundred folds for all what you did to me" Kyle smirked. "Gosh, look at him, what's with that face" sigh"So broke and proud" Kyle didn't give a fucking damn care about those comments, if it was before he could have felt pain but not now, at least he has a system, so why should he care. Kyle got to class in a jiffy, and quietly got to his seat, he didn't want anyone to see him, as he was not ready for another round of insults. "hoho, look who just got in, our one and only pathetic lover boy" someone commented. "you should had seen his face when Silver rejected him, poor boy"

He turned one last time and looked at them with a teary eye, he then looked at Derrick then lastly Silver who raised her hand signalling him to get lost, at that moment Kyle was unable to hold back his tears that he has been fighting to keep, his heart felt heavy as he unleashed the tears from his eyes.
