He intended to rescue the adorable yet powerful witches from the clutches of the giant corporations, embarking on a path of innovation!

I have given up power that can make the strongest of men tremble. I bore scars very few can imagine; loved women, very few had the gall to talk; and tread paths with chaosfiends.

Gale was summoned into a mysterious world of magic and monsters for no particular reason. Thrown into squabbles of beings vastly higher than him, Gale strived to make a place for himself in the vain dream of immortality and a better world.

That was six years ago.

Beaten and battered from years of brutal war, Gale finally had enough and resolved to start over a new peaceful life in a totally unremarkable town with his trustworthy companion, Vale. Give up the weapon of slaughter and take up a hoe? That seemed like a fine deal to him.

Unfortunately, the valley wasn't as unremarkable as he thought it to be. Dictatorial governing bodies, suspicious practitioners, an exceedingly unwelcoming guest, and a secret that would change the entire world, all impeded his peaceful life. Gale will need all his mental stability to keep his temper in check, lest he brutalises his way out of trouble. Again.

Ms Shen goes about her usual days while Mr Bo flirts with her relentlessly.

The world ended the same day Julien failed his job interview. Portals tore open the sky, and monsters went on a brutal killing spree until humanity finally awakened powers to fight back. By sheer luck, Julien awakened an SSS-rank skill, the highest tier in existence.There was just one problem: It gave him zero combat stats.[Skill Name: The Infinite Warehouse][Rank: SSS][Type: Administrative-Class / Economic Authority][Description: You have been granted limited administrative access to the Multiversal Supply Chain. You do not own the items within, but are merely the distributor.]With every new level and upgrade, the skill rewards him with impossible new heights of power. It upgrades from basic shop of healing potions to granting him dimensional contracts to summon Mythical beasts, ultimately opening a door for him to conquer the vast multiverse itself.In a collapsing world, the man who controls the supply… controls everything.
