Every family has that one person who is born as a sacrifice. For her family, that person was Selene Vale, who was to become a spare for her younger twin siblings success.

Due to her innate shy and kind nature, she was not able to connect to her family every since she was young. So, despite her rich background, Selene Vale never felt like a part of the family and was often regarded as the 'First spare' or even 'defective'. That did not change even when the world fell and Apocalypses happened.

Selene Vale's first life ended trying to protect her twin siblings, the only people who had yet to abandon her. That was her end...

...but it wasn't. 

Due to her sacrifice, Selene Vale awakened her system and innate power and was given another chance at life and survival. And this time, she vowed to free her siblings from their parent's cruel influence. If she was able to do that, then she would be happy with that.

But unfortunately, that was not all she did. She also ended up attracting the attention of the big-boss of the Apocalypse, the only L-ranked hunter and the hope of humanity....and also, a long time friend she would rather forget about.

The Spare’s Second Chance in Apocalypse

Selene lay in bed, staring up at the ceiling.

The shadows twisted and warped, playing tricks on her tired mind.

She had tried to sleep, really tried, but every time she closed her eyes, a nightmare clawed its way into her consciousness.

Images of dark corridors, echoing whispers, and cold hands pulling her into the void haunted her.

'What the heck am I doing? What are those visions? I never got them in my past life? So why…'

She'd jerk awake, heart pounding, sheets damp with sweat.

She had lost count of how many times this had happened through the night.

Beside her, Ethan slept on the small couch he'd pulled into her room, his breathing steady and peaceful. She didn't want to wake him.

'I want to wake Ethan up…but that won't be right. He needs his sleep as well.'

With a resigned sigh, Selene sat up.
