Critical

Quinn Flintshire thought he had finally found a family when he married Lisa Rodriguez. Instead, he spent five miserable years serving her family while they treated him like a servant. When the apocalypse arrived, Quinn risked everything to gather supplies and keep them alive. His reward was betrayal. His wife cheated on him, deceived him about her pregnancy, stole his inheritance, and ultimately joined her family in killing him when food became scarce. But death wasn't the end. Quinn awakens on the Fourth of July, three weeks before the world descends into catastrophic storms, devastating floods, and a terrifying new ice age. This time, he remembers everything. Armed with knowledge of the coming apocalypse and a mysterious spatial storage ability, Quinn immediately cuts ties with the Rodriguez family and reclaims the enormous inheritance they once tried to hide from him. With millions at his disposal, he buys fortified properties, hires contractors to transform his home into an underground survival fortress, and begins stockpiling food, water, medicine, fuel, vehicles, and every resource he might need. But survival isn't his only goal. Quinn wants revenge. As Lisa and her family scheme to reclaim his wealth and destroy his reputation, Quinn turns their own plans against them, exposing their lies one by one. Yet as the disasters begin arriving differently from how he remembers them, Quinn realizes his knowledge of the future may no longer be completely reliable. The apocalypse he thought he understood is changing. And this time, Quinn intends to be ready for whatever comes.

If you had amazing intellect and memory you'd think that you'd be revered and worshipped by many right? Wrong! That was the case for Levi who was born with astronomically insane mental abilities but fate played a cruel game on him by giving him a frail and weak body to house his mind. Thus, in this world of Arcane Energy, brute strength and destructive magical abilities are what is valued thereby making Levi's gift a curse rather than a gift.

From the weak, Arcane-less boy who couldn't live up to his parents reputation, Levi with this new found talent is able to Evolve Infinitely.

When faced with endless dimensions and infinite trial, what truly matters? Power? Talent? Or the unyielding human spirit?

Zevian Rook had three things going for him: a scholarship to an elite university, $173 in his bank account, and absolutely no ambition to impress anyone. Then a System appeared. [Daily Check-In System successfully activated.] "Cliche." [...] "Can I fly?" [No.] "Heat vision?" [No.] "Then what's the point?" Apparently offended by its own uselessness, the System forcibly upgraded itself. [HEAVEN DEFYING SYSTEM activated!] Its first legendary reward? A nut. Zevian ate it. He probably should have read the description first. The next morning, his glasses stopped working, his body looked like it had been sculpted by an overenthusiastic god, and his supposedly ordinary university life went straight to hell. Rich heirs want to humiliate him. Campus beauties keep approaching him. A gorgeous senior secretly has thirty days to make him fall in love and break his heart. Unfortunately for her, Zevian is more interested in the free meals. And while everyone mistakes his indifference for cowardice, nobody realizes that beneath Zevian's easygoing smile is a man who simply doesn't care about money, status, reputation... or giving arrogant people the reaction they want. Cars? Nice. Mansions? Convenient. Beautiful women? He has eyes. Insult him? Go ahead. Touch someone he cares about? That's when Zevian stops smiling. From a broke scholarship student to a despised son-in-law, from a supposedly useless orphan to the hidden heir of a terrifying family, Zevian will slowly discover that wealth is only the surface of his world. Beyond it lies martial arts, hidden powers, forgotten bloodlines... and the truth behind a System arrogant enough to call itself Heaven Defying. Zevian only has one question. "Can I fly yet?" [NO!]
