Embers of Frost: From Biologist to Ice God

"Why is the Earth so different?" In the year 2085, the impossible happened: the Earth began to slow down until it stopped completely. Without an apparent reason, the planet drifted out of its orbit and began to wander through deep space. Neither the most brilliant scientists nor the most advanced AIs could find an answer as to why this was occurring. The Moon failed to follow Earth’s new path, as a result, massive tidal shifts swallowed entire continents, leaving only a fraction of humanity alive. The catastrophe deepened when, after three weeks of drifting, Earth collided with a mysterious, pitch-black planet. In the wake of the impact, more landmasses were shattered, leaving only portions of Asia and Africa intact. From the darkness of this black planet, strange entities emerged. Humanity dubbed them "Krukins", hostile, ink-black creatures that were extremely aggressive toward the survivors. Right before the Earth began its descent into chaos, a biologist was launched toward a planet near a black hole. This world, dubbed "New Earth" due to its striking similarities to our own. The biologist, Darian, was told that while ten years would pass for him on this new world, only fifty years would pass on Earth. But the calculations were wrong. It wasn’t fifty years that passed back home, it was five hundred. When Darian finally returns to Earth, he is not alone. On the alien planet, he found a small creature capable of fusing with him, granting him the power of ice. He returns five centuries late to find a world he no longer recognizes, a planet overrun by Krukins. Standing amidst the ruins of his home, Darian cannot believe his eyes.

The Eternal Synergy System

Synopsis: The Eternal Synergy System In his previous life, Alexander Voss was an overworked, perpetually exhausted software engineer who met an unceremonious end at thirty-two under the wheels of a late-night delivery truck. When consciousness returned, it came wrapped in the body of a newborn named Aiden Voss in the quiet, unremarkable village of Willowbrook—a place of thatched roofs, muddy lanes, chicken coops, and the gentle turning of seasons. But this second chance arrived with an absurd gift: the Eternal Synergy System. A blue interface only he can see promises two outrageous multipliers—100× experience gain and 10× rewards—along with access to every class the world possesses, from the humblest Villager to long-forgotten Mythic titles whispered only in ancient tomes. There is one catch: almost nothing starts unlocked. Classes, skills, advancements, and especially the rare, hidden, legendary and mythic tiers only awaken through synergy—the deliberate combination and simultaneous growth of multiple classes. The more seemingly incompatible professions Aiden masters, the stranger and more powerful the emergent paths become. What follows is not the story of a prophesied hero charging toward demon kings and world-ending calamities. It is the story of a boy who—armed with obscene multipliers—quietly turns an ordinary village childhood into something quietly apocalyptic in slow motion. At five he plants radishes, identifies moonblossom, carves spoons, tracks rabbits, and accidentally unlocks his first synergy class: Jack of All Trades (Epic). By eight he’s simultaneously a level-12 Farmer, level-11 Herbalist, level-9 Carpenter, part-time Baker, Fisher, Tailor, Poultry Keeper, Apprentice Blacksmith, and more—his family’s table buried under mountains of 10×-multiplied eggs, carrots the size of forearms, and inexplicably perfect knitted scarves for every child in the village. The system keeps dangling ever more absurd carrots: • Verdant Cultivator (Advanced) from Farmer + Herbalist • Homesteader’s Hand (Rare) from three production classes • Village Guardian (Rare) after he accidentally repels a pack of wolves using a hoe, a hastily-carved wooden shield, and several jars of self-brewed minor stamina potions • World Walker (Legendary hint) teased for anyone insane enough to master fifty base classes before ever leaving their home region • Architect of Realms (Mythic) — requirements still hidden, but the system keeps giggling in blue text every time Aiden builds something “just because” Yet Aiden is in no hurry. He likes kneading bread at dawn with Baker Tomas and listening to Widow Marla’s stories while he knits. He likes racing his father to see who can plane a board smoother. He likes lying on the roof at night under the Twin Moons counting fireflies and watching his synergy meter creep upward. He likes being Aiden Voss, helpful weird kid, not some prophesied destroyer or savior. The world beyond Willowbrook—floating adventurer guilds, monster-filled frontier marches, scheming noble houses, ancient sealed labyrinths—barely knows his name exists. For now. Because every carrot he plants, every loaf he bakes, every chair he carves, every herb he crushes, every stitch he sews, every fish he cleans, every nail he hammers feeds the same runaway exponential curve. The boy who was once debugging legacy code at 3 a.m. is now debugging reality itself, one multiplied chicken egg and one synergistic level-up at a time. Slice-of-life on the surface. World-breaking power creeping underneath. A cozy village raising what will one day be called—depending on who you ask—the most ridiculous, most wholesome, most terrifyingly over-leveled “civilian” the continent has ever seen. The Eternal Synergy System is a slow-burn, multipliers-gone-wrong fantasy about childhood, found family, daily chores, impossible growth, and the terrifying question: What happens when someone treats every single day like a speed-run exploit?
