Ozias laid on his back in silence, staring at the ceiling far away. His droopy eyes were mere moments away from closing, but he tried his best to stay awake.The day had been really stressfull—he had been working nonstop for hours. Luckily, during his short break, there had been a power outage, giving him the chance to finally rest a little.However, his rest was short lived by a sudden loud bang rippling through the atmosphere, snapping him awake and expelling every fatigue clouding his mind."What was that?!" Ozias asked himself, looking around frantically and trying to pinpoint the sound's location.Another sound—similar to the first, but louder and more blood-cuddling—suddenly resounded, causing the world to shake.Ozias stood up immediately, dusted his body and rushed in a direction. He needed to report the weird occurrence to his superiors. The third time the sound came, and Ozias fell—again—but he didn't linger, popping back up to his feet and sprinting ahead.A minute later,

___[System Activated]—[Congratulations! You are the 13,849,099th Earthling to activate the Apocalypse System]—[Comprehension Unlocked: Basic Spear Mastery]—[Would you like to see your status?]–––Ozias barely read what was before him before he trembled as the Zombie crashed into him with the force of a gorilla, toppling him over as they rolled, the system notification disappearing. The momentum carried them a long distance, their bodies ricocheting like ping-pong balls off a smooth wooden table. Ozias kicked and punched as hard as he could, the viciousness behind each strike making the Zombie quiver uncontrollably. ‘Tarnation!’ Ozias’ thoughts swirled wildly in his head, his summoned courage wearing out little by little. His weapon had been thrown out of his hand after the clash, and they had rolled away from it—far out of reach. If he wanted a chance to deal with the Zombie, then he needed it. With a burst of strength, Ozias knocked the Zombie off his body, his tendons s

Ozias peaked out through the door, his eyes narrowed in concentration as he watched the Zombies around moving in a direction. Something was attracting them, but he did not know what. He retreated into the shop and blocked the entrance. If he wanted to head out, he needed a plan. According to Cole, the world was changing, literally. Phenomenons that wouldn't be understood until later would occur. Millions will die, a lot will survive though, but only a few will grow and become the most important in the next phases. The cat always sitting on Cole's shoulder was a pet of his. Allegedly, it was related to the Lineage Ability of the Morvane family. They could tame monsters and beasts of various kinds, harnessing their innate and inborn abilities to boost theirs. Ozias remembered vividly, Cole mentioning that his cat possessed spacial powers with its weak Race limiting it to possessing only a small storage space. If he wanted to unlock more of its abilities, then he had to make it ev

___[Mental: A Stat that shows the percentage of mental power you can output from your Race]—[Spiritual: A Stat that shows the percentage of spiritual power you can harness and output from your Race]—[Flow: A Stat that shows the amount of Flow you possess]—[Karma: A numerical record of your good and bad deeds]—[Affinity: A Stat that shows your connection with an Element, Concept, or aspect of reality]–––Ozias read through the information calmly, not bothering to look up at the approaching Zombie. It was still quite a distance away though… Until it wasn't. So he moved. His body bent out of the way of a vicious swipe, his weapon twirling in his hand and across his body, tripping the Zombie, while smacking its face at the same time. The Zombie fell backwards, and following that, the weapon came down on it, breaking its neck. Yet, it lived. Regardless, Ozias didn't fret, moving his weapon and smashing it against the side of the Zombies head, rattling its brain and cracking

[Congratulations! You are the first Earthling to earn a Title][Title, Skill Savant, has been granted][Skill, Vacuum, has been learnt]___[Skill(s): Vacuum: The World of energy bends to your will]–––“...No energy cost,” Ozias simply said, before he continued on. As impressive as the skill was, it was unable to be used passively. He wasn't that skilled in using it, otherwise its use would have been mouth-watering.That said, it didn't mean the skill was subpar. Fact is, it was better than Ozias was letting on—he had replenished his Flow in merely ten seconds after all. He didn't dwell too much on it because there were more pressing matters to attend to. For example, three Zombies had entered his Awakened Eyes range, but he still couldn't open his eyes yet. “Me and my shitty luck,” Ozias mumbled, raising his weapon. Then he paused, his face paling. “Can this get any worse?” He couldn't help but say when he sensed two more Zombies entering his range from the opposite direction.
