B71/100Web serial by Dosei
Adam is no one special — just an accountant standing in line at a bakery one early Saturday morning. Unfortunately, fate has other plans when the black cubes show up before he can get his pastries. The cubes are the heralds and guides of the Trials of Defiance, and they've decided that Adam, along with every other able-bodied human adult, is to become a Player in their game. Humanity's future is at stake, and it's all but inevitable that Adam is going to die. Despite everything, he overcomes the first Stage and attains some measure of power — then discovers a way to kill the black cube following him around. The only problem is that killing the cube takes him down with it. Oh, and it also gives him the power to go back in time when he dies. A roguelite-inspired GameLit with infrequent time loops, a weak-to-strong protagonist, and huge build variety across Relics, Weapon Types, Divine Boons, and meta upgrades.
