Anything that does not kill me makes me stronger.

I was an orphan. I didn’t know why, though. "Surely, my parents must’ve left as soon as I was born,"

Thankfully, the orphanage I grew up in supported me through my school years. After that, I was on my own. It wasn’t an ideal life, but it wasn’t terrible either. I had my own ways to cope. When someone bullied me at school, I had novels. When they made fun of me, I had mangas. What could a scrawny, malnourished boy like me even do?

When I grew up, I got a simple job, living the life of an ordinary background character.

Then, some damn robber decided to shoot me. Funny enough, I couldn’t be more thankful to him.

Somehow, I reincarnated into a modern fantasy world. As someone who had read plenty of novels, I was sure I’d awaken a powerful skill, so I used the awakening stone. Soon, I realized I wasn’t the only overpowered person—there were others like me as well.

While I hunted monsters, made good connections, and conquered dungeons, the "Tower of Trials" suddenly manifested, bringing about the second apocalypse.

Infinite Adaptation in the Apocalypse

The subtle sounds of birds chirping in the garden stirred me awake. Slowly, I opened my eyes, feeling the warmth of the sun's rays streaming through the glass door in front of the couch.

Yawning, I stretched, the haze of sleep lifting as I remembered the significance of today. Rising from the couch, I glanced around at the spacious but empty house, its silence almost palpable.

"Maybe I'm just too used to a small apartment," I muttered, my voice breaking the stillness.

Shaking off the lingering grogginess, I headed to the bathroom.

The cool water cascaded over me as I stood under the shower, its steady rhythm washing away the remnants of sleep. Once finished, I changed into my usual outfit, comfortable yet plain.
