​When Worlds Collide, Only the Dead Can Lead. ​Xin was just an ordinary boy until the first apocalypse. When a massive meteor from Earth-6 slammed into his city, it brought more than just fire, it brought a technology so advanced it could rewrite the laws of physics. ​Xin didn't survive the impact. He was thrown down from a collapsing skyscraper, his life ended on the pavement... or so it seemed. Instead of death, the meteor’s core fused with his soul, bringing him back with powers that defy gravity and time. ​Now, Earth-1 is under siege. The Elementals—god-like beings from Earth-6—have arrived to reclaim their lost "World-Changer" tech which was in the meteor and they decided to enslave humanity. Xin stands as the only line of defense. But he faces a soul-crushing choice: ​Does he keep the technology for himself to evolve the human race, or does he surrender it to the invaders to stop the slaughter? The world is burning, and the clock is ticking.

Johnny Lance was once an ordinary man with an extraordinary sense of responsibility. Growing up in the suburbs of New Veritas, he became the protector and provider for his younger sister, Claire, after their parents’ tragic death. Despite the hardships, Johnny built a modest life with his wife, Elena, and their young daughter, Lily. His dreams were simple: to give his family a better future. But the cracks in his life began to show when he risked everything to start a business with his charismatic best friend, Marcus Blackwood. What began as a partnership built on trust and ambition turned into betrayal. Marcus and Elena’s affair destroyed Johnny’s marriage, and Marcus’s ruthless business tactics forced Johnny out of his own company. Left with nothing—no family, no fortune, and no purpose—Johnny spiraled into despair. He moved into a dingy apartment on the outskirts of New Veritas, drowning in bitterness and regret. His longing to be reunited with his daughter, Lily, was the only light in his dark world. One night, in a drunken and reckless state, Johnny attempted to drive to see Lily, but a devastating car accident left him bleeding out on the brink of death. In his final moments, a mysterious message appeared in his mind: *"The Seven Deadly Sins System of Wealth has chosen you. Do you accept?"* Desperate for any semblance of hope or power, Johnny accepted. The system granted him his first ability: **Greed**, the power to see and manipulate opportunities for personal gain. With this newfound ability, Johnny rose from the ashes of his former life, using the system’s powers to amass unimaginable wealth and influence. His first act of “Greed” involved manipulating a failing stock, turning himself into a millionaire overnight.
