What was the purpose of living anymore? These were my final thoughts before I had taken my own life, the next time I had regained consciousness I had heard a strange, booming voice. [Another one which lacks respect to the life that they have been given.] [Through hardship, you shall learn true respect of your life.] [Eliminating all riskful memories, creating new universe.] [Now you shall be placed in the most extreme possible set of conditions, struggle to live, and learn respect of your life.] These words were ringing through my mind as I reawakened, as a small lizard-like creature. In a dungeon with powerful monsters, where strength is the only absolute. I will survive this place, no matter what!

Drake was not reborn because he was defeated. He was not punished. He was simply… tired. Once, he was the Divine Creator, the being who shaped gods, demons, angels, and the laws that bound existence itself. He ruled concepts, forged worlds, and watched civilizations rise and fall. But as his creations drowned themselves in pride, war, and meaningless worship, Drake chose something no god ever had. He chose silence. Sealing his authority, he abandoned divinity and was born again as a human commoner, determined to understand the one thing gods never could—what it means to live a fragile, finite life. In a world where mana defines worth, where nobles rule by blood and strength, and where academies exist to separate the powerful from the forgotten, Drake enters as nothing more than an ordinary boy. He hides his true power, suppresses his overwhelming mana, and lives by a single rule: Power should only be used when there is no other choice. But even restraint has consequences. Mana behaves strangely around him. Monsters hesitate. Fate bends subtly. And as Drake steps into the brutal world of magic academies, assassins, nobles, and hidden conspiracies begin to move—unaware that the quiet commoner they overlook is the very being who created their gods. This is not a story of instant domination. This is the story of a creator learning humanity, of trust earned, not demanded, and of a world that will one day realize— The King of Earth was never crowned. He was reborn.

One day, a strange hand suddenly appeared inside Chi Wan’s interdimensional space. Its owner claimed to be living in the apocalypse—starving, desperate—and begged to trade anything he had for food. Chi Wan stared at the pile of Imperial Green jade, oversized diamonds, and dozens of kilograms of gold bars he offered… and fell into deep thought. …Wasn’t this a little too profitable? From then on, her connection to the apocalypse only grew stronger. The mysterious man—who turned out to be a powerful figure—used his Wood Ability to help her revive rare orchids, cultivate endangered plants, and even harvest zombie crystal cores for the country. As for Chi Wan? She only had three responsibilities: feed him, feed him, and keep feeding him. Somehow, without realizing it, a group of extraordinary men began to gather around her: A genius research scientist. An aloof, abstinent CEO. A cold and ruthless Soldier King… In front of Chi Wan, they were gentle, attentive, and impeccably polite—each trying to outshine the others. Behind her back? They were one step away from tearing each other apart. Meanwhile, on the other side of the spatial link… The so-called King of the Apocalypse clenched his teeth in silence as he listened to these men compete for her attention. As for Chi Wan? “I’m busy getting rich and supporting my family,” she said calmly. “A battle royale of suitors? I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Until one day— An absurdly handsome man appeared at the gates of her villa… carrying a sack filled with gold and jewels. “I’m here to marry into your family,” he declared. Chi Wan glanced at him, then at the newly connected wasteland world inside her space… …and once again fell into deep thought.
