Fans of Rick and Morty or HWFWM may enjoy this.The world ended. Theo Kane wasn’t invited to the afterparty though. One moment, he was on the verge of MMA stardom. The next, Earth was rewritten by the Exo-Genesis—a ruthless, game-like system where strength dictates survival. Every human was granted levels, abilities, and a path forward. Except Theo. Denied access to the System, Theo is stranded at the starting line, powerless while monsters roam and factions rise. His only advantage? A brilliant but irritable exile who sees Theo’s anomaly as both an experiment and an opportunity. With no skills or stat boosts to rely on, Theo must push his body and mind beyond human limits, developing his own way to fight back. But the System doesn’t tolerate outliers. It won’t let Theo break the rules—only bend them, forcing him to play a game designed to keep him weak. And with stronger survivors returning, alliances forming, and the world sharpening its teeth, being left behind isn’t just a disadvantage. It’s a death sentence. No levels. No skills. No fate. No problem. Theo’s got fists, bad ideas, no common sense and a complete disregard for his own safety. Author note: This book is an alpha version and things are subject to change.
