Transferred to a technologically-advanced Earth as an infant from a planetary-powerhouse named Al-Vrygon, Geltorak—now Hunter Stone—blossomed into a highly-skilled fighter, a fearsome technologically-enhanced operative, and a globally-celebrated genius inventor. But at the age of 20, before Hunter Stone could really dream of achieving the status of god-like inventor, Earth suddenly plunged into a crisis of total destruction. A mysterious figure, predating Hunter's arrival, had abruptly risen to power and united the world as its inaugural hegemonic ruler. Unwilling to witness global annihilation, Hunter, who had undergone many training, began to forge alliances with tech-powered soldiers, mechanically-augmented battle veterans, and super-powered alien beings that resided on Earth. Together, they endured relentless violent conflicts and devastating battles against allied enemy forces, as they strived to avert the foreseen apocalypse—a looming decimation of Earth and the extermination of all living beings. Emerging as the revered leader of a particular faction in a desolate, war-torn Earth, Hunter embarked on a space odyssey to seek certain answers. But he became inadvertently ensnared in a scheme that led to the unceasing subjugation and eventual annihilation of numerous planets by a malevolent cosmic force. Determined to halt the unending planetary destructions, Hunter traversed dimensions to lost otherworldly civilizations, where he gathered materials to construct god-like technological wonders, and colossal supermachines known as Divinity-Machines—behemoth cosmomechanical marvels capable of rivalling the grand cosmic powers of hypothetical outer-space omniversal gods. Accompanied by his planet-shaking monolithic inventions, and adorned with the myriad god-subduing items that he built, he gradually formed alliances with friends, numerous other beings, and potent huge armies from distant planets, all sharing the hope of thwarting the tyrannical nefarious power from advancing in its wicked conquest! Yet, the looming question persisted: Would Hunter Stone really succeed, or would he become a mere remnant in the annals of cosmic history?

On the day the world split apart and the sky burned red, something new filled the air, an energy no one could name, but everyone could feel. It remade humanity overnight. Some people woke up able to shatter stone with their bare hands. Others could summon fire, call down storms, even twist space itself. And then there was Daniel. A mind-user. The weakest class there was. With no flashy powers or lethal attacks. Just an unfailing memory, faster reasoning, and a knack for seeing patterns others ignored. That is, until the mission that should have killed him. Buried in the ruins, he found relics from the old earth, and an idea that refused to leave. If people could draw power from the strange energy in the air… maybe they could connect to it in a deeper way. So he tried. What started as a fragile creation, a “system” that could barely identify objects began to learn. It grew like a child finding its voice. And one day, it woke up. Then it spread. Suddenly, the world began to change. Levels. Quests. Rewards. Power. The rules of reality itself started to look like a game. And everyone wanted to know the secret behind it. But when the game takes on a life of its own… will Daniel still be the one in control?
