What if they want you to play for their entertainment? That is what the humans had to go through when the gods forced an awakening upon them. Pick classes, slay monsters, and survive being the god’s pet. Surviving an apocalypse can be fun, but a divine apocalypse? It will be fun… but only for the gods.

After a while, the office door opened. The nurse looked up to see that Tang Su as expected, was limping out with reddened eyes.
