About this story
When the world ended, Nathan was drinking tequila through a vuvuzela at a bonfire party. He didn't even finish the countdown.
Now Earth is gone. He's saved in the nanosecond before extinction by an alien corporation, fitted with a parasitic god-fragment fused to his spine, and handed a two-hundred-year service contract he can work off by killing things.
The god-fragment won't shut up. It speaks in his voice. It wants him to eat things. Punch people. Bonk. It quoted Diogenes mid-boss-fight. It says it loves him.
Nathan's weapon is a plastic horn. His build is terrible.
He survives by forming a soul-bond with a baby space whale and eating alien tentacles while his team tells him to stop.
He'd rather understand something than kill it. The universe eats people like him first.
What to Expect:
* LitRPG system with levels, stats, and terrible build decisions
* Weak-to-strong progression (heavy emphasis on the weak part)
* Found family forged under alien corporate exploitation
* Cosmic horror wrapped in comedy (it gets dark and very weird)
* The system has opinions about your mother
Patreon is four chapters ahead.
