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

The four of them stood before the entrance of the secret dungeon, its stone archway overgrown with twisted vines and framed by the gnarled roots of ancient trees.

The air was thick with moisture, and a faint mist curled around their ankles, adding an eerie touch to the dimly lit forest.

The entrance itself pulsed with a soft, amber glow, a sign that the dungeon was still active and unclaimed.

'This place seems a little too perfect. Being here gives me the chills.'

Selene adjusted the straps of her leather gloves, the silence stretching too long for her comfort.

She cast a sideways glance at Ethan, who was leaning casually against a moss-covered boulder, his expression as unbothered as ever.

Her curiosity itched at her, and she couldn't hold it back anymore.

"So... how did you find this place, Ethan?"

Her voice was casual, but everyone caught the undercurrent of suspicion.

Ethan's lips curled into a smirk.
