Luxury cars, designer wears, watches, mansions, and penthouses worth millions, Aron had it all. To him, money was nothing but a number. He was so wealthy that he believed even God Himself couldn’t make him taste poverty.

But everything changed when the one he loved, the only person he considered family, betrayed him. In a single moment, everything he had worked so hard to achieve was taken and destroyed, leaving him with nothing.

Devastated and consumed by hate, rage, and hopelessness, Aron realized that no matter what he tried, he would never be able to get close, let alone take revenge, for all he had lost.

That was until a notification appeared before every human in the world:


[Your world has arrived at its waking brink.]
[You have awakened the talent: Talent Bank.]


And so, the apocalypse began.

In their eyes, Aron was no longer human.


Aron raised one hand, then let it fall.


 [Zulcan (Foundation Establishment) killed, +1000 EXP]


The sound of notifications echoed endlessly in his mind.


And as this scene transpired, an owl perched on a nearby tree watched everything silently.


Far away, in a dark chamber, countless square light screens illuminated the stone walls.


 The flickering glow revealed several people seated before them, monitoring each projection intently.


On one particular screen, Aron stood upon a water board high in the sky.


 His hand slowly fell, and the Zulcans below dropped like flies, their heads impaled by the weapons arranged on the ground. Instant death.


The observers exchanged looks of disbelief.
