Synopsis

Alex, killed by the God of Darkness, was crushed by his giant sword and woke up to find himself back on the day the 'Universal Descent' game launched! Monsters and gods hadn't began to descend into Earth yet, and so this meant that Alex, along with his 10 years of experience, could now make a difference. But surprise, once he re-enters the world of 'Universal Descent', instead of awakening his normal C-Level talent, he instead awakens the SSS-Level 'Extraction' talent! He could now extract items, talents, attributes and skills from monsters! Ding! [You have extracted the Artifact-Level 'Excalibur'!] [You have extracted the SSS-Level 'Meteor' Skill!] [You have extracted the Artifact-Level 'World Map'!] Now, there was no monster or god in this game that could stop him!

Chapter 1Chapter 1: SSS-Level Extraction Talent, Re-Launch of Universal Descent

Ding.

Alex's eyes shot open.

He gasped, jerking upright and instinctively touching himself all over.

Yet his body was whole. No pain. No blood.

'Where's the sword?!' he looked around, fearing for his life, he perfectly remembered being crushed by the [Sword of Darkness], wielded by the [God of Darkness].

But strangely enough, there was no giant sword, or any weapons at all.

Instead, he was just in a bed?

Confusion rushed over him as he took in his surroundings: a dingy, cluttered room.

"This is…?"

His eyes scanned the small apartment, the wallpapers on the wall and broken furniture extremely familiar to him.

"My old apartment?" He stared in disbelief.

This cramped, shabby place had been his home before the world fell apart.

Before the game launched.

Before the gods.

"What the hell happened…" Alex rubbed his forehead, trying to remember his last memories before coming back to this place.

And suddenly, with a powerful headache, he remembered his final moments: destroyed world; angels, demons and monsters apocalypse; gods taking over; and finally, humanity losing the war in the end.

"Did I… go back in time?" this was his conclusion.

Instinctively, he reached out for his phone, something that he hadn't had the time to do in a long time since he was too busy fighting for humanity.

2024, May 23, 11:56 PM.

Alex had truly gone back in time, to a time before all of this happened.

To a time before the launch of "Universal Descent", a simple game at first glance, but one that would completely change humanity as we know it.

"Wait a damn minute…" Alex's eyes widened as he saw the time.

He could never forget it as it was one of the most important days of his life, but didn't the game launch on the 24th of may, at the exact moment midnight struck?

2024, May 23, 11:59 PM.

"!!!" His heart pounded in his chest.

There was only a minute left before the 'announcement' that would change the world appeared!

11:59 PM… 12:00 AM!

This time, Alex was ready. He had lived through it all once. He knew the horrors that awaited humanity. And now, with this second chance, he wouldn't waste it.

Ding!

At this moment, a majestic chime came from the sky, and a panel appeared in front of Alex.

[Humans of Earth, the universal server has been connected with you, and the first batch of public beta access is now being issued randomly!]

Of course, this was completely normal, he had already experienced it once, after all, but all the people outside that received this very same panel must have been just as confused as he first was in his first life.

As Alex was thinking about that, his left wrist suddenly began to hurt.

He quickly glanced down, fully knowing what this was.

And that's when he saw a complex circle of runes form around his wrist, constantly spinning.

The runes formed a bracelet around his skin, glowing with a radiant white light before slowly fading, embedding themselves into his flesh.

All of this seemed like a dream, but Alex needed to take this seriously now that he knew what was bound to come.

Suddenly, as the process ended, the majestic voice sounded again.

[The 20 million places for the first public beta have been distributed.]

[Beta testers can now enter the game at any time, please check the specific rules yourself.]

[Humans of Earth, I hope you can break out of the hell coming for you, and contribute to the defense of the universe.]

"…" Alex in his first life was like many others, thinking that it was a joke, a mere prank, but no, this wasn't.

He looked down at his wrist, and with a thought, the rune ring appeared again.

This [Rune Bracelet/Ring] was directly connected to the game, and it was what allowed all players to access the game.

The technology has been checked by thousands of scientists, but none of them could even understand how it worked.

Everything they needed could be found in that so-called game, after all, there was no need to question it.

[Do you wish to enter the game?]

[Yes/No]

[Note: not entering the game right now is not advised!]

"…" Alex hesitated as his fingers hovered over the [Yes] option, but then he clicked it.

Whether he joined the game or not wouldn't change the fact that the apocalypse would descend on earth.

He would rather participate again with all his knowledge than just sit down and do nothing!

Alex clicked on [Yes], and suddenly, he felt extremely dizzy.

No matter how many times it happened, he surely would never get used to it.

He was currently in a black void, in a dimension between reality and the game, and so, new panels appeared before him.

[Welcome to Universal Descent!]

[Scanning identity… Alex Rogue!]

[Identity confirmed, please enter an ID!]

Alex already knew what to expect in this game, and so he also understood the importance of having a unique ID, since that was the name that everyone both inside and outside the game would see.

"…" after thinking for a bit, Alex nodded.

[ID: FateBreaker]

He would keep this as his ID to constantly remind himself of his purpose: to not end up like the him from his past life.

This was pretty much all.

[Do you want to check the rules?]

'Why not?' he couldn't remember them all after all.

[Rules]:

1. The ratio of game time to real time is 2:1, meaning that for every two minutes that passes in the game, one minute passes in the real world.

2. Items such as property upgrades and equipment obtained in the game can be brought into reality once the 'first stage' has ended.

3. You can currently enter the game for only up to 12 hours every 24 hours, this is based on earth time by the way, meaning that it will be 12 hours in reality, but 24 hours in the game, and the time can be freely allocated, so you can leave whenever you feel like it!

4. The game currency is connected to reality, and all financial institutions on Earth are bound to the "Cosmic" Bank, meaning that you can sell and buy equipment, and transfer that money directly to reality or to the game.

5. The real world has been invaded by magic, and monsters in the game will gradually begin to appear randomly.

6. More rules may appear as the game continues.

"Yep," this was it, and Alex remembered them all perfectly, how could he not after all?

These were simply but the basic rules, and more would appear down the line, but for now it was fine.

As the rules stated, Alex and humanity were on the verge of entering a new era from the moment this game started.

Human society would undergo earth-shaking changes as a response, and the entire planet would be built around 'Universal Descent', the 'players' of the game becoming world famous people, especially those at the top.

[Scanning attributes… awakening talent!]

"Here we go again…" Alex sighed.

This had already happened once in his previous life, and so he could sense the energy flow his body as the system was deciding on a talent.

But Alex wasn't surprised either: after all, he already knew what he would be getting.

He was about to get a C-Level [Enhanced Melee Damage] talent.

Talents were spread out around several categories: F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS.

F being the lowest and worst all, you couldn't even call those talents, and SSS being the highest, Alex perfectly remembering that the people in his previous life who had those were the strongest.

[Talents at SS-Level or above are unique, meaning that if someone gets them, there won't be someone else who has the same!]

Talents are based on the attributes, which is why it is scanning them, but it didn't mean that it wasn't luck too, it was a mix of both.

After a few seconds, the panel sounded again as it appeared in front of the man.

[Scan complete!]

[C-Level talent "Enhanced Melee Damage" was planned to be given, but the "power of reincarnation" has been detected, thus changing it.]

[Awakening unique SSS-Level talent: "Extraction"!]

"…!" for the first time, Alex's eyes actually widened, surprised to see an actual change.

But doesn't changing the past also mean changing the future?

"No… it doesn't matter, this future NEEDS to change," he couldn't allow these creatures to destroy Earth and kill billions of people, not now that he knew what was coming.

Maybe… with this new talent and opportunity, surely he would manage.

In the end, he just decided to check his talent's effects.

[Talent Effect #1: Upon defeating a monster, you can see a list of items/talents/skills/attributes you can extract from that monster and specify what you want to extract from it, note that currently only ONE thing per monster is allowed to be extracted, so choose wisely.]

[Talent Effect #2: Defeating monsters will grant you "Extraction Points", which you can use later on to enhance your talent or buy items.]

These were all the effects of his talent, but it was normal, every talent only got a minimal amount of perks, and they would increase as time went on.

[Please choose your occupation now.]

Universal Descent only had six professions in the beginning: Warrior, Mage, Archer, Priest, Assassin and Summoner

But this was only what appeared on the surface.

Because once you enter the game, you realize that there are hundreds of other rare and hidden professions that could be found from completing tasks or trials in the game.

Meaning that currently, the one he would choose would mostly be his main, but he would still get another one, as Alex already had a rough idea of what to do once inside.

"Mage."

In his previous life, Alex had made the foolish choice of choosing 'Warrior' as it was the one that sounded the coolest, he had been imagining himself rushing at the front line of battle to slash down enemies, and also because his previous talent was about melee damage.

But reality was much different than you would believe it to be, and in the end, [Warrior] ended up being the worst class of all, making him wish he had at least chosen [Assassin].

It was weak even against the priests, and though there were some amazing warriors in his previous life, he wasn't among them.

But even then, even with his C-Level talent and "bad" profession, Alex had actually still managed to be a grand warrior, many calling him a 'miracle' among warriors.

He wouldn't make the same mistake though, and that is why he chose Mage, though he did hesitate between that and Assassin.

They were bad in the early stage, but once they acquired powerful spells, they were unstoppable beings, those who had hidden professions or talents related to it even more.

Ding!

[You have become a Mage!]

[Profession and talent have been given, entering the world of Universal Descent!]

Suddenly, the world around him changed, and the black void was now replaced by a magnificent scenery.

[Player 'FateBreaker' has entered the "Novice Continent"!]

I lost my Copy System and awakened a Plundering System

Draco Xandros, an average young man, awakened an SS-Ranked Copy Talent and a Copy System. With these two strength, he had hope of fulfilling his hidden dream (becoming a hero) but fate said otherwise for him. Betrayed by the person he loved most, he lost his system and talent, his life hanging on a thread. Why? Why me? This question passed through his mind. The paining of getting his system and talent extracted and getting betrayed by his love made him fall in abyss. [Detecting sufficient energy to awaken the system] [Activating the Plundering System] **[Host has successfully awakened the Plundering System]** **[Gained an SSS+ Talent Ability: Plunder]** **[Gained an SSS+ Talent Ability: ????? Dragon Power]** **[Gained an SSS+ Talent Ability: ????? Phoenix Power]** This voice brought a change to his life. Farming EXP, getting stronger, completing missions. This was his daily life. Until a memory fragment surfaced... It turned out his identity wasn’t what it seemed. His past life, his parents—everything was shocking, as he found himself caught in a whirlpool of secrets. Follow Draco’s journey as he uncovers the missing pieces of the puzzle and the hidden truths about his past life. A/N: The novel entails a story about system holders. All ability Awakener have their own system, but in some classes, some Awakener are chosen by unique system, such as the Plundering System (MC's second system), Fox System, Thunder God System, Fire God System, Vampire System, Undead System and many more. I would say the novel has a foundation of magic with little Eastern Fantasy. It is a novel where the stronger prey on the stronger. You'll surely love it. As for the systems origin, I'll drop a hint: gods Please also note, the MC will be overpowered after the awakening of the Plundering System. However, in the beginning, he is just slightly above a genius fighter. Support this shameless Author with power stones, gifts and golden ticket Discord Link:https://discord.gg/zVzcJs2F

Level 1 to Infinity: My Bloodline Is the Ultimate Cheat!

They shattered his life. Now, he’ll break the world. Ethan had it all, until his best friend and the woman he loved betrayed him, leaving him crippled and forgotten. Three years of suffering later, he clawed his way to one final, desperate act… and the universe answered. A hidden quest. A second chance. A return to the moment everything began. Now, Ethan is back, on the eve of Ethereal’s launch, the world’s first fully immersive VR game and the battlefield where legends are forged. Last time, he played fair. This time? He’s armed with years of knowledge: every exploit, every secret quest, every broken mechanic that will let him climb straight to the top. But when he logs in, something is off. The system forces him into an unwanted class—Druid, the game’s biggest joke. The kind of class people pick as a dare and regret immediately. Yet as Ethan digs deeper, the truth shakes him. [Congratulations! You have unlocked the Divine Bloodline: King of Elves!] Ethan stared at the screen, unblinking. “…The hell?” The Druid class was a jack-of-all-trades, master of none—a scattered mess of abilities that mimicked other classes but never truly excelled. Their bear form lacked the raw defense of a proper tank. Their panther form was weaker than a rogue. Their healing fell short of a priest, and their magic couldn’t compare to a mage’s devastating spells. Most players abandoned the class early, realizing they could never compete at the highest level. And yet, Ethan’s stats are off the charts. His talents are absurd. His potential is beyond anything he’s ever seen. The system has given him something no other Druid ever had—a divine bloodline, legendary abilities, and a growth rate that defies logic. If Druids were meant to be weak, then Ethan was the exception that would rewrite history. He’s not just here to reclaim his throne. He’s here to take everything. Factions will rise. Empires will fall. The strongest will thrive, and the weak will perish. And the ones who betrayed him? They won’t live to do it again.
