Ten years ago, the Apocalypse System descended upon Earth, and with it came the Gates - portals to countless dying worlds, each locked in their own unique apocalypse. 

Humanity thought they were conquering these apocalyptic realms for power and glory.
But they were wrong. The Gates were training grounds, and Earth's own apocalypse was the final exam.

When the Earth’s Apocalypse finally descended, the world fell in a matter of days.
Now, ten years after the fall, Cipher remains the only one alive in this ruined world, having only survived thanks to his Glitch Class - a power he also didn't fully understand. He's survived where billions failed, wandering the wasteland alone, until a meteor crashes down from the heavens and strikes him.

But this is no ordinary meteor. It's the remnant of a dying god, offering him one final chance: return to the past and save earth from its apocalypse. There's a catch though - the god's power is too weak to send him back with his memories or abilities intact. He would return as nothing more than an ordinary person, doomed to repeat the same fate.

Just as despair sets in, his Glitch Class activates once again, corrupting the god's power. The regression glitches - instead of losing everything, Cipher retains both his memories of the future and his Glitch Class.

He awakens in the past on the day of his original awakening - but something is wrong. The system glitches again, and he awakens his original Glitch Class for the first time. The two classes collide and merge, evolving into the Cheat Class.

Armed with knowledge of the future and a class that can acquire any skill or exploit, Cipher has one goal: conquer every apocalyptic world, accumulate overwhelming power, and face the Final Apocalypse head-on.

This time, he'll change everything.

"Are those real worlds?" Cipher asked, looking at the infinite dead worlds sprawling before him.


"Hard to say. Somewhat," the Heavenly Demon replied.


"Hmmm." He held his chin in thought. "How did they end up here anyway?"


The Heavenly Demon stared at him for a second before letting out a soft sigh. "Who knows," she said.


Cipher looked at her, then changed the subject. "Anyway, have you ever heard of this so-called Eternal Flame?"


"Really? What have you heard?" he asked.


She shook her head. "It's not really hearing, per se, but I've read a book about it in the Library of the Heavenly Demon."


"Back when I was just a subordinate of the young cult leader, I earned the right to enter the Heavenly Demon's library. Inside, I found a book. I thought it was a powerful martial arts manual, but it turned out to be a fairy tale," she explained.
