A system's apocalyptic countdown gives Alex seven days to prepare—seven days until magic tears through reality and transforms the world forever. Trapped in a meaningless college degree for a job he'll never take, he welcomes the chaos with open arms. Death seems a small price for escape. Then his only friend betrays him, shoving him through a portal into nightmare itself. Stranded in a twisted realm where even insects dwarf his strength, Alex discovers he's been cursed with a summoner's class. While others would crumble in this hellscape, he sees only potential. His monsters grant him their power, their abilities, their ferocity—but survival demands more than borrowed might. Every creature hunted, every contract forged, every battle won pushes him deeper into the supernatural. In a world designed to break him, Alex chooses to break it first.
