Leo Maxwell's life was a debuff. Evicted, broke, and haunted by the ghost of next month's rent, his only stats were [Desperation] and [Resilience]. Then the System arrived, quantifying his struggle, offering a path out of the gutter through quests as mundane as cleaning and as critical as debugging faulty code. But this isn't just about leveling up.
As Leo trades his janitor's mop for a developer's keyboard, his real-life coding savvy becomes a potent weapon in a hidden war he never asked to join. Simple quests to fix college network glitches escalate into battles against parasitic Factions, confrontations with cosmic Architects, and a desperate dive into the forbidden legacy of a predecessor known only as A.R.
From the grimy streets to the alien geometries of advanced System facilities, Leo must unravel conspiracies, master forbidden knowledge, and forge unlikely alliances. His greatest asset? The synergistic power of his mundane intellect fused with System-given abilities. But as the stakes rise from personal survival to planetary defense, Leo discovers that the true "End Code" isn't just a program to be run, but a reality he must help rewrite, all while trying to keep his cover, his sanity, and his few precious friendships intact.
This is Real-Life Grind LitRPG where the interface is everywhere, the quests are deeply personal, and the consequences of failure are far more devastating than a simple game over. Can one man's struggle against the odds change the fate of his world and the very System that governs it?
