Chapter 1 - Awakening Ceremony

Year 2030.

Blue Star.

The sky did not fall. The earth did not crack. There were no signs, no warnings—no thunderous herald announcing the turning of fate.

Instead, it came quietly.

A single line of text appeared before every human being on the planet.

[System Initialization Complete]

[Linking to All Human Consciousness…]

[Binding Successful]

At first, people thought it was a glitch.

A hallucination.

A prank.

Phones were checked. Screens were refreshed. News outlets scrambled for answers. Scientists panicked behind closed doors.

But the message did not disappear.

It hovered—clear, precise, undeniable—directly within the mind.

[Welcome to the Infinite Game]

Yin Yuca stood in the middle of a crowded street, frozen in place as the translucent blue interface flickered before his eyes. Cars honked. People shouted. Somewhere nearby, someone screamed.

But none of it felt real.

Not anymore.

His heartbeat slowed, not from calm—but from something deeper. Something instinctive.

Change.

The world had changed.

[Distributing Initial Rewards…]

[All Humans Will Receive a Starter Draw]

[Drawing…]

A soft hum vibrated through his skull.

Yin Yuca clenched his fists.

"A draw…?" he muttered.

His breath was steady, but his eyes were sharp. Unlike the chaos around him, he didn't panic. Not because he was fearless—but because something inside him whispered a truth he couldn't ignore.

This wasn't random.

This was fate… rewritten.

A glowing card slowly formed in front of him.

It spun once—twice—before landing silently in his palm.

[Congratulations!]

[You Have Obtained: "Infinite Card Engine (SSS)"]

The world went quiet.

Not outside.

But inside his mind.

[Skill Description:] Infinite Card Engine (SSS)

• Unlimited card generation at the start

• Cards evolve with the user

• All card paths unlocked

• No restrictions

"…Unlimited?"

Yin Yuca's pupils contracted.

That single word carried a weight that shattered logic.

Because everyone knew—instinctively, as if the System had etched it into their minds—that rarity defined destiny.

F-rank… E-rank… D-rank… all the way to SSS.

And above all—

Limitations defined balance.

But this…

This had none.

Around him, others began shouting.

"I got an F-rank skill?! What is this garbage?!"

"Wait—what's a Mage Class?!"

"I have a sword technique—no, wait—it's evolving?!"

"My body… it feels stronger!"

The world erupted into chaos.

Some fell to their knees in despair.

Others laughed in madness.

And a rare few… stood silently.

Watching.

Thinking.

Adapting.

Yin Yuca closed his eyes.

The interface shifted instantly.

[Would you like to draw cards?]

"…Yes."

The moment he accepted—

Light exploded.

Not outside.

But within.

Thousands.

No—tens of thousands of cards flooded his vision.

They appeared like a storm—endless, radiant, overwhelming.

Each one pulsed with a different aura.

Fire.

Shadow.

Steel.

Time.

Concepts that defied understanding… all within reach.

"This is…"

His breathing quickened.

For the first time, even he couldn't remain calm.

[You may select freely]

Freely.

No limit.

No cost.

No restriction.

Yin Yuca laughed.

A low, quiet laugh.

Not of madness.

But of realization.

"The world… is about to break."

Far above the skies of Blue Star—

Something stirred.

An unseen force.

Ancient.

Watching.

Waiting.

Because the System had not come to save humanity.

It had come to test it.

[First Invasion Countdown Initiated][Time Remaining: 10 Years]

Ten years.

A grace period.

Or perhaps—

A countdown to extinction.

[System Initializing...]

[System Loading...]

[System Loaded!]

Finally! I Finally received the golden finger that will aid me in my journey!

It's been three days since I first transmigrated to this world and it has taken a lot to figure out what kind of place this was.

Fortunately, I arrived at the capital of Nevordia with less than a few miles of walking distance from the location where I started.

I asked around and a person that was quite handsome in terms of looks gave me the introduction to the place where we were currently in.

Apparently, in this world there is a thing called cultivation, a type of system that surround in the workings of
