In a world where 70% of the population possesses powers managed by a LitRPG chip, Kang Ji-Hoon, a timid young man, joins the prestigious Apex Academy to save his sick mother. Ranked last at F with his seemingly useless ability to summon a dagger, he becomes the target of relentless bullying. Pushed to his limit, he unleashes the true power of his weapon, a dark and destructive force. As he transforms into a ruthless anti-hero, a cosmic threat emerges to assimilate humanity. Ji-Hoon then realizes his dark destiny: to save everyone, he must destroy everything.

In his past life, Ethan Steele was an ordinary man living in a modern world—working a dead-end job, struggling through the monotony of daily life, and haunted by regrets of missed opportunities.At the age of 23, his life came to a sudden, unexpected end in a car accident. As his consciousness faded into darkness, he was sure it was over.But fate had other plans. In the divine realm, the God of Fate watched over the balance of life and death.Ethan's untimely death was a mistake, an anomaly that diverged from the preordained path of his destiny. It wasn't yet his time to die, and so, the god decided to give him another chance.“You were meant for greater things, Ethan Steele,” the god's voice boomed. “To correct this error, I will reincarnate you in another world—one filled with magic, swords, kingdoms, and adventure. You shall be reborn, but you will not remember your past until the appointed time. There is, however, a... complication.”By divine error, the god accidentally bestowed Ethan with the Harem God System without having any idea about it.This system is a powerful, reality-bending system that would allow him to charm and seduce influential women to build his harem, growing in strength and power with each conquest.“Your memories of Earth will return on your seventh birthday. I hope you enjoy your life here in this world”And with that, Ethan's soul was transported to a new world.
