Han Jiwon has died 999 times.
Once from eating a poisonous herb.
Once from touching a glowing relic that said "DO NOT TOUCH."
And once—shamefully—from taking a nap inside a dungeon beast’s nostril.
But Jiwon isn’t a hero. He’s not even a hunter.
He’s the first awakened, doomed to relive the same 266 days before the Grand Merge—a cosmic event that will fuse 50 worlds, open dungeons, and release chaos across Earth.
After failing 999 times, Jiwon gives up on saving the world.
This time, in Loop #1000, he just wants to survive. And maybe cook a decent stew without dying.
With his new passive class Cosmic Chef, a snarky spatula named Kevin, and the ability not to die once per day thanks to the skill Cosmic Conductor, Jiwon sets out to do the impossible:
Open a restaurant in the middle of the apocalypse.
But survival has never been that easy.
From dungeon bosses with food allergies, to heroes who’d rather fight than eat, and interdimensional customers with odd cravings—Jiwon’s journey is just beginning.
