There was nothing left to lose in his life.He had lived as a hero. He had started at the bottom and worked his way up to the top, at the end he become the best, yet he had always been betrayed by those he had tried to protect.Humanity did not deserve his protection.When everything went out and he could no longer even hope to beg for his life, he could do nothing but look up at the blood-red sky among the corpses of demons and angels.He wished for one more chance, just one more chance.And when that chance was given to him, he swore that he would change everything. He would no longer be a hero to save people, but an anti-hero to save the world.Sacrificing hundreds of people to save an elf, poisoning hundreds of people to save a group of half-demons.He didn't care about any of that anymore, he would protect those he cared about and send everything else to hell.Not even the gods or goddesses could stop him.

“We are well aware that the relationship between us is not healthy. Our love is far from perfect. It’s messed up. Just like us.”

– Bing Shi & Mr. Jelly

After a painful separation, Bing Shi gets a once in a lifetime opportunity to get back together with the ‘love of her life’ under one condition. To get one of her wishes granted, she will have to travel to different worlds and finish all the assigned missions from the System HeadQuarters.

In each world, she will encounter the best species of men — men that are many times more influential than the Mr. Jelly from her previous life. Will she be able to resist the alpha men that could make any human fall to their knees?

Bing Shi is not sure if she will be able to finish all the missions, but she will surely stay loyal to her boyfriend until the very end.

No matter what it takes, she will be stronger than the bad things that have happened to her.

She will be stronger than the sadness that threatens to consume her.

She will be stronger than the darkness that tries to pull her down.

And, because of that, she will be able to keep moving forward and find a way to make life work for her......

Alexander Gray, a fifteen-year-old teenager on the verge of his awakening and subsequent entry into the Hunters Academy is one day taken away in a cosmic mana wave that passes through Earth’s solar system during a school trip from Earth to Mars. A wave that kills a person once exposed to it. Luckily, the displacement wave placed him close to their destination where he was found, alive and well to the disbelieve of everybody. Unbeknownst to him at the time, the cosmic mana wave had awakened a gift within him that would propel him to the ranks of hero hunter and beyond, granting him the strength to lead humanity in their effort to determine the cause of their universe changing and its implications. ............. “For some reason, I can’t level up.” Alex began to feel frustrated as he was stuck at Class F, the lowest rank a hunter could have after awakening, despite his momentum when he first awakened. Even with his awakened talents and the benefits he received from the ’accident’ that should have killed him, he now finds himself stuck and unable to level up as mana does not work on him like everyone else. Follow Alexander Gray as he discovers his abilities and learns about himself in a chaotic universe and beyond.
