SYSTEM ERROR: The Glitch Ascendant (A LitRPG Adventure Book 1)
The System came to save humanity. It crashed when it tried to process Elias.
When the Great Initialization integrated Earth, seven billion people received a Class. They became Warriors, Mages, and Rogues, gifted with skills to survive the sudden arrival of monsters.
Elias Thorne, a burnt-out software QA tester trapped in a server room, got something else.
[CRITICAL ERROR. CLASS ASSIGNMENT FAILED.]
[ADMINISTRATOR PRIVILEGES LEAKED.]
While others struggle to swing swords and cast fireballs, Elias sees the wireframes of the world. He sees the hitboxes on the monsters. He sees the drop rates of the loot. And most importantly, he sees the exploits.
But the System doesn't like errors. A 48-hour timer has been set to "Reset" the server—wiping humanity from existence to fix the bug.
Hunted by the System’s Architect and an army of patches, Elias has to level up fast. He must climb the Admin Tower, hack the kernel, and save the world before the clock hits zero.
He has a gardener named Jenkins, a dagger made of glitch-code, and a Strength stat that reads NaN.
He isn't playing the game. He's breaking it.
