1% Lifesteal: A LitRPG Adventure

Freddy Stern, a twenty-one-year-old cashier, has lived a difficult life marked by losing his parents twice. For the past decade, he has worked steadily toward a single goal: saving enough money to become an archhuman. When he barely survives a near-death encounter, Freddy gains possession of 1% Lifesteal, an unusual talent with contradictory properties. Each enemy he defeats makes him stronger, wiser, and more ruthless. No matter how much damage he sustains, he can physically recover. As Freddy pursues greater power in this apocalyptic world—set two hundred years after a reality-altering event—he repeatedly confronts the decay within archhuman society. While his talent allows his body to heal completely, the question remains whether it can preserve his mind and soul, or if those parts of him will stay broken. This LitRPG adventure features a protagonist who grows from weakness to strength, a distinctive power system, and apocalyptic themes.
