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

This flashy attempt by Lyra caught the attention of many other hunters present.

As she hovered above the ground, a fireball came flying toward her.

Sensing it just in time, she barely managed to dodge. The hunter who had launched the fireball rose from the ground with a cocky grin.

He said something, but I couldn't make it out due to the overwhelming noise in the arena.

"Wait... I have an idea," I thought as inspiration struck.

I closed my eyes and focused solely on hearing. Seconds passed, but nothing happened. Then, I shifted my approach, tuning into individual voices.

I started with the people nearby, listening closely.

".....has been eliminated."

"Damn it!" I cursed as the announcer's voice broke my concentration.

I tried again, this time more cautious and quicker. After a few minutes, I finally heard a familiar notification.
