Life was hell for Ace. Stuck with parents who showered love on his little brother while treating him like garbage, his only escape was university. Then, they crossed the final line: they kicked him out with nothing.

Homeless and desperate, wandering the streets with no hope, Ace hears a voice in his head: "System Initializing." Suddenly, his life isn't just about survival. Mysterious tasks appear, offering rewards – cash, skills, opportunities. This is his shot.

Armed only with grit and a mysterious interface granting him a path to power, Ace vows to turn his rags into riches. He'll build an empire from the gutter, prove his worth, and make those who threw him away regret it. But can the System truly rewrite a destiny written in pain? Follow Ace's rise from unwanted son to self-made titan.

The walk back to the cannery was long and felt very dark. The word "Efficient" from Ramos kept glowing in Ace's mind. It was a cold mark of approval for a lie he had told, a lie that had saved a man's life but had cost Ace a piece of his own soul. The city around him felt different now. He wasn't just someone passing through it anymore; he was becoming a part of its hidden machinery, a small cog in Ramos's operation. He was now an auditor, a fixer. The title felt heavy and wrong on his shoulders.
