On the day Clara forced me to sign the divorce papers, I got bound to a self-sabotaging system. The system commanded me to slap her hard and tell her to get lost. I trembled in fear because Clara was a ruthless person. If I dared to stop her from getting back together with the love of her life, she would utterly destroy me. But the system threatened me: "If you don't self-sabotage, you will die soon." Left with no choice, I slapped her. As soon as I hit her, I ran out of the house, terrified. The system then told me to smash a police car on the side of the road. I suspected the system wanted me dead. However, after I smashed the police car's side view mirror, I realized that the system was trying to sabotage someone else's life instead.

When the real son, Henry Sylvester, is finally brought back to the family, I, the non-biological child who's taken his place, am already prepared to pack my bags and leave. Instead of letting me go, Henry calls me up to the sixth-floor terrace of the villa and pushes me over the edge. "You've stolen my life for 18 years, Marcel. You should be grateful." I don't struggle. In fact, I deliberately fall headfirst. At that moment, I believe I'm destined to die, but I end up surviving. The doctors even call it a miracle. A fall from the sixth floor should've been fatal, yet I only suffered minor bone dislocations and no other serious injuries. When the Sylvester family asks why I jumped, I tell them the truth about Henry pushing me. Instead of believing me, my elder brother laughs in my face. He shields the meek and frightened-looking Henry from me and warns me not to slander his real brother. The Sylvester couple looks at me with nothing but disappointment. They're convinced I've brought this upon myself and even ask why I haven't chosen somewhere higher to jump from. Frankly, their suggestion makes sense. So, I go to the tenth floor, ready to jump and start my life over. Suddenly, a mechanical voice rings out in my head. "Marcel, this is your seventh attempt at suicide. Are you really going through with it?"

Emily Carter once believed love could overcome anything. For two years, she devoted herself completely to Jason Walker, sacrificing her dreams, savings, and happiness to build a future with him. When the zombie virus suddenly plunged the world into chaos, Emily never hesitated to protect him. She scavenged dangerous streets for food and medicine, fought countless zombies to keep him alive, and repeatedly placed herself in mortal danger so he could survive another day. Three months into the apocalypse, everything she believed shattered. Cornered by an overwhelming zombie horde, Jason abandoned Emily without hesitation, choosing to save his secret lover, Vanessa Kane, instead. As Emily lay dying, surrounded by the undead, she realized that every sacrifice she had made had been for someone who never truly loved her. Instead of dying, Emily awakens exactly one month before the outbreak begins. She remembers every horrifying detail of her previous life—the collapse of society, the rise of mutant zombies, the betrayal of trusted allies, and the locations of future safe zones and supply caches. At the same moment, a mysterious voice echoes inside her mind. “SSS-Level Survival System Activated.” The system grants Emily missions, rewards, powerful skills, and access to a limitless storage space, allowing her to prepare for the coming apocalypse far better than anyone else. Unlike her first life, she refuses to waste her second chance chasing love or relying on others for survival. Her only priorities are staying alive, protecting those who deserve her trust, uncovering the truth behind the virus, and building a secure settlement capable of surviving the end of the world.
