System! I always dreamed to have a system, to get out of my boring and shitty life. Surprisingly the day of my birthday I got one, but I was not the only one, the whole world received a system, and the people who were born in the 3rd day of September got a gift pack, and I was one of them. But the shocking thing is that we got a system notification that the earth will be invaded by another dimension in two weeks time and everyone should prepare for it. ------ Author's note ------ Hi everyone, I want to warn you about this novel there will be a lot of mistakes, English is not my native language (I am only using Google Translate), and I am not a professional writer.

Under the tyrannical reign of Eternity Corp, time is no longer an abstract concept, it is a physical commodity known as liquefied Time Core that can be bought, stolen, and siphoned directly from the human body via digital timers embedded in the wrist. The city is fractured into two extreme worlds: the Upper District, inhabited by elites possessing boundless immortality, and the squalid Lower District, where the impoverished suffocate in the gutters simply because they ran out of seconds to breathe. Axel is a former Liquidator, the number-one tactical enforcer and crown prince of Eternity Corp, engineered to be the ultimate cybernetic weapon. However, after witnessing his own father, Adrian , callously let his mother perish to preserve corporate profits, Axel chose rebellion. The price for his defection was devastating: Axel was framed by his half-brother, Valen, injected with Chronos Decay, a terminal cyber-virus that systematically ravages his heart, and cast out into the Lower District with a remaining lifespan of merely 29 days. Clinging to life and shrouded in his rigid black tactical frock coat, Axel is salvaged by Rhea, a skilled cyber-mechanic and operator of an emergency logistics clinic in the slums. Cold, ruthless, and efficient, Axel refuses to remain a victim. Instead of crawling back to beg for a lifespan quota, he weaponizes his dwindling days into a literal countdown for a radical, suicidal infiltration mission. The stakes skyrocket when Adrian deploys a wireless Vampire Drain protocol from above, siphoning the lifespans of the Lower District's citizens, including Rhea, to bait Axel out of the shadows. For Axel, this is no longer a battle for survival. This is his final logistical calculation to ensure that the exact moment the digital timer on his wrist strikes absolute zero, his father's tyrannical empire collapses alongside him into ash.

But the truth is far more terrifying—some spirits exist to devour, corrupt, and break the boundaries between life and death. Others, bound by fate, offer unimaginable power to those they deem worthy. Arman never wanted to be a hero. Struggling with social anxiety, he preferred to keep his head down, avoid trouble, and live a life that meant nothing to anyone but himself.
