Elias had never been lucky — not once, not ever.

Abandoned at birth, raised in suffering, and tormented by a life that never gave him a break, Elias trudged through existence like a ghost wearing human skin. By the age of thirty-two, even his heart gave out, quietly and without drama — just like everything else in his life. It simply… stopped.

But death wasn’t the end.

Instead, Elias found himself face-to-face with a stunning goddess — the Keeper of Fate. And for the first time, someone finally told him the truth: his entire life had been a mistake. A cosmic error. His Karma, meant for another, had been switched at birth, condemning him to a life of endless misfortune.

To make amends, Fate offered him a second chance — a new life, with the luck he had been denied.

With a single pull from the divine card deck, Elias drew the Legendary Extraction Talent — an ability that allows him to absorb powers, skills, and even laws of the world itself.

From a broken man to a rising force, Elias will forge a new path.

He will extract the power of heaven and earth.

He will defy fate and ascend to the apex.

And this time… luck is finally on his side.

The undead dire wolf's chilling howl echoed across the battlefield and in the next moment, a compressed sound wave burst out from its open jaws.


It shot forward at terrifying speed, roaring through the air like a bullet made of pure force, aimed directly at the spikedtail snake.


The spikedtail snake, still fixated on Elias, sensed the incoming attack at the last moment. It twitched and shifted, reacting fast.


The sound wave struck the exact spot where the snake had just been. Though it missed, the force was still overwhelming. The tree the snake was on exploded. Bark and splinters blasted out as the thick trunk shattered, the shockwave rattling the air itself.
