When the apocalypse descended in all its eerie chaos, I was the Vanguard Base’s only researcher specializing in supernatural abilities.
I willingly handed over the honor of saving the leader to my best friend, Ruby Barrett.
In my past life, Ruby, who couldn’t even fully recite the periodic table, suddenly claimed she had comprehended the Spark of Dominion for awakening powers.
Every time I guided someone, I had to stay up all night analyzing data and calculating mental thresholds.
Yet with a casual touch of her finger, she could flawlessly awaken survivors. Everyone began to worship her as the Mother of Abilities.
Until the day Commander Alden Morris awakened a top-tier lightning ability, Ruby shoved me aside.
“Faith, this isn’t the time for you to show off. Commander Morris’s safety concerns the survival of all humanity. Let me handle it.”
I tried desperately to stop her, warning her of the violent nature of lightning abilities, but the survivors who idolized her tied me up.
Ruby actually succeeded in stabilizing Commander Morris and became the savior of the base.
Meanwhile, she framed me for conducting live human experiments, had my limbs broken, and I was thrown into a pit of zombies.
Only as I was dying did I realize she had awakened a mind-reading ability, stealing the methods I used to guide others’ awakenings.
When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the very day she first claimed to have mastered the Spark of Dominion.
This time, I didn’t stay up day and night analyzing data or memorizing formulas. Instead, I started humming the tune of a broadcast exercise routine.
