Little Joe In the enchanting kingdom of Tallindorie, Little Joe is a spirited boy from a humble farming family, living a life of simplicity and joy. Despite facing rejection due to his modest background, he remains blissfully unaware of the harsh realities of life. His days are filled with secret training sessions with his father, indulging in hearty meals, and earnestly trying to make friends. But everything changes after a fateful encounter at school. When Joe bravely saves the teenage children of a powerful baron, he not only earns their friendship but also receives a mysterious gift that alters the course of his life. Later, after much suffering, fate thrusts Joe into the spotlight, drawing the attention of the lords from neighboring cities who see in him the potential to become a local defender. However, Joe’s dreams reach far beyond the accolades of knighthood. He aspires to be a true hero, someone who can make his parents proud, uplift his small town of Dhaubania, and stand against the corruption and injustices that plague the nobility in the kingdom of Tallindorie. Meanwhile, in the real world, Lowo N'air, a young orphan, is caught in the web of two scientists with dark ambitions. One is a pharmaceutical magnate seeking the perfect herb to create an innovative medicine, while the other is a portal technology developer searching for new worlds to conquer. Both seek the power to reshape reality, but their pursuits risk plunging the world into chaos. Fate takes an unexpected twist with the arrival of SIME, a System of Intelligent Multiple Choices. Due to a critical error, the system distorts the characters' desires in unimaginable ways. Little Joe, who once dreamed of becoming the greatest fighter, finds himself connected to a bugged system that strips him of all his abilities, leaving him at the lowest level of degradation, and only grants him insanely useless skills as rewards. As if that weren't enough, Joe also suffers from the bizarre ability to lay golden eggs—a power that brings him wealth but at the cost of his dignity. On the other hand, Lowo N'air, who longed for riches, is granted the potential to become a formidable warrior. Realizing they belong to different worlds yet are connected by shared technology, Joe and Lowo N'air become disillusioned with the absurd swap of their dreams. United in their frustration, Joe resolves to challenge and modify the very System that altered his destiny, while Lowo rebels, believing that no one should have the power to dictate their dreams.
