Leveling Up Wives In The Apocalypse

When the sky cracked and monsters invaded, Nolan Whitaker awoke with a 'useless' class. In a world where warriors reign supreme, this former mechanic must prove that the pen—or rather, the hammer—is mightier than the sword.

When Jakarta fell to the zombie apocalypse, the world didn't end with a bang—it ended with a corporate memo. Earth is being liquidated by 'Existential Corp,' and humans are just redundant assets. Armed with a bizarre survival guide by the mysterious 'Coach Udin,' university student Rendy must navigate a reality where singing children's songs and walking like a crab are the only ways to survive. From fighting HRD demons to running a law firm for the undead, Rendy must prove that human chaos is more valuable than corporate perfection before the CEO deletes the world forever.

My name is Zane, and I am just a poor boy from the Mainland slums. To keep my little sister, Kemi, alive, I trusted the richest magic guild in the city. I thought they were going to cure her sickness. Instead, they used me. They strapped my sister to a machine to tear a legendary power source called the Calamity Core straight out of her chest. When I tried to save her, they broke my bones and left me to die on a freezing hospital floor. But I didn't die. A blue digital screen popped up in front of my eyes, granting me a forbidden power: sovereign necromancy. Now, every monster I kill and every corrupt billionaire I crush must stand up and join my shadow army. The rich think they own this city behind their high concrete walls. But I am coming for them with an army of the dead, and I will make every single elite bleed for what they did to my family.

Everyone called Jared Lin trash — the good-for-nothing son-in-law of the powerful Bai family. Insulted by his cold wife, mocked by his in-laws, and humiliated by society, Jared lived at the very bottom of the food chain. But everything changed the day the world ended. When the skies turned black and monstrous creatures tore the world apart, Jared died protecting the very people who looked down on him. Just when he thought it was over, he woke up ten years in the past—on the morning of his wedding. This time, he’s not just a useless son-in-law. He’s the chosen host of the Apocalypse Preparation System. Armed with future knowledge, hidden upgrades, and an unbreakable will, Jared begins building his underground empire while pretending to be weak. Real estate, pharmaceutical power, weapons deals—he’s preparing for the fall of mankind. The world may laugh at him now. But when the apocalypse returns… They’ll all beg at his feet. This is the story of a man who went from worthless to world ruler, from ridiculed to revered. A second chance to rewrite fate — and this time, Jared Lin is taking no prisoners.

The world ended in a single night, and survival became a brutal game of instinct and luck. I was nobody before it happened, just another man trying to get by. Now, I have something no one else does—a system that rewards me for giving instead of taking. Every time I offer food, weapons, or shelter to a woman, I receive it back in insane multiples. But there’s a catch. The less she trusts me, the greater the reward. Fear, hatred, even betrayal… they make me stronger. At first, it feels like a miracle. I rise faster than anyone, building power while others struggle to stay alive. But the deeper I go, the clearer it becomes that this system isn’t random. It’s guiding me toward certain women—dangerous ones. Broken ones. Not entirely human ones. Some want to use me. Some want me dead. And some… are connected to the very thing that destroyed the world. Now I have to decide. Do I keep playing this game and become unstoppable? Or do I stop before I lose what little humanity I have left? Because the more I give… the more I feel like I’m being used too.

Humanity's final winter arrived without warning. The sun faded. Civilization collapsed. Food vanished. Hope died. As survivors fought over scraps and murdered each other for a mouthful of stale bread, Jack Harper—a man mocked his entire life as a useless loser—awakened a mysterious power. The 100x Rebate System.

Damon Cross was supposed to awaken a Combat Path capable of changing his life. Instead, he received Archivist—an F-Rank support class with no combat skills and no future worth mentioning. Then, that same night, his class opened a door to a world where humanity had already gone extinct. [Dead Timeline detected.] [APOCALYPSE ARCHIVE activated.] Inside the Archives are civilizations that have already fallen, monsters that no longer exist, weapons lost to history, and evolutionary paths no living human has ever seen. And Damon can take them back with him. Kill an extinct monster. Loot its Remnant. Discover its evolution. Grow stronger. Then enter another dead world and do it again. While everyone else is trapped within a single Combat Path, Damon begins collecting powers that should never coexist. Monster Hunter. Mana Warrior. Psionic Evolution. Dragonblood. And those are only the beginning. But after exploring several destroyed timelines, Damon notices something impossible. Different worlds. Different civilizations. Different apocalypses. Yet the same symbol appears in every ruin. Those worlds did not die by accident. Something is destroying them. And sooner or later... Damon's world will be next.

Betrayed by his fiancée in the Dark Eclipse Apocalypse, he was thrown outside to be eaten by shadow monsters. As soon as his life left him, he was reborn 7 days before the apocalypse with the God of Light System. Now the world is freezing overrun with flesh-eating monsters, and he's the only man with sunlight.

Rhys Darby gave everything to keep his family alive through the apocalypse. And in the end, they repaid him by carving him up for food. His wife betrayed him. Her lover helped butcher him. Even the son Rhys had raised as his own turned out to belong to another man. As the knife tore into his flesh, Rhys screamed out one final curse: If I get another life, I’ll make every one of you pay. The universe answered. He woke up three months before the apocalypse. This time, Rhys would save no one but himself. He would divorce his wife, take back his money, stockpile everything he needed, and build a fortress no one could break into. And when his wife finally realized what she had lost—after bankrupting herself, changing her face for him, and kneeling outside his shelter begging him to save her family—Rhys would show her exactly as much mercy as she had shown him. None.

Three months before the apocalypse, Sean Miles got a second chance at life. In his previous life, he trusted the woman he loved with everything he had. She repaid him with betrayal. When the apocalypse began, Sean was infected by a mutated wolf while trying to protect the survivors. Desperate for the antiviral serum he had brought back, he returned to his wife—only to find her in bed with another man. “Jessica… where is my serum?” She looked away. “Sean, I gave it to Zach. He was sick.” “A cold?” Sean stared at her, barely able to stand. “You gave the only serum that can save my life to your lover because he had a fever?” “Don't be dramatic. We'll find another one.” But there was no other one. Sean died knowing the woman he had protected for six years had chosen another man over him. Then he opened his eyes. Three months before the apocalypse. Alive. Young. And holding memories of everything that was coming. This time, Sean had no intention of being anyone's fool. He divorced Jessica before the apocalypse began. Then he used his memories of the future to win hundreds of millions in the lottery, hiding his fortune where she could never touch it. While the world laughed at the man who suddenly disappeared from his wife's life, Sean was preparing. Jessica thought she had finally gotten rid of her useless husband. She had no idea that the man she abandoned was preparing to become the most powerful survivor on Earth. When she eventually came begging, Sean would have only one answer. “You chose him when I had nothing.” He looked through the fortress window as the first signs of the apocalypse appeared. “Now that I have everything… why would I choose you?”
