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 moved through her morning routine with practiced ease, keeping her expression neutral and her thoughts guarded.

The memory of last night clung to her like a dark cloud.

The way Ethan had looked at her, the weight of his questions about the gun—it all simmered beneath the surface.

'I am sure there is something that Ethan is not telling me…and I have a feeling that it is not about the gun…'

Selene wanted to look into it more, but honestly, it felt like a hassle. So she decided to head down and forget about the night…

Or, at least pretend to forget about it.

When she walked into the kitchen, Ethan was already there, laughing at something Zara had said.

His usual bright smile and relaxed demeanor grated on Selene's nerves.

He didn't look bothered at all. It almost made Selene feel as if her worries had been for nothing.
