Transmigration by SMS: Earth 199999
Lucius Noctis, a broke, bitter twenty three year old American bioengineering graduate stuck in France, watching his life rot one ignored application at a time. Then an SMS arrives from an UNKNOWN sender with a simple poll: pick a universe. He jokes, he answers, he gets greedy, and reality answers back harder. A violent “check your left side” moment ends his old life in smoke, glass, and blood.
He wakes up on Earth 199999, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with impossible gifts on the table and a rule set that feels like it was written by something that wants entertainment, not justice. He is not a hero. He is selfish, calculating, and willing to do ugly things for power, survival, and control. As he claws his way through a world of gods, monsters, and super soldiers, he chases bigger upgrades, darker bargains, and a path that could turn him into either a hidden kingmaker… or the kind of villain the MCU will never see coming.
