Synopsis

He was a Senior Engineer at Google. Now, he’s a starving peasant in a world of magic. But he has something the others don't: The Source Code. Finn died crunching code at 3:00 AM and woke up in the gutter of Cinderhold. In a brutal world where humanity is at the bottom of the food chain, Finn is stuck as a lowly apprentice to a sadistic mage. His talent? Non-existent. His mana? Pathetic. His future? Likely dying in a ditch. Then, the System loaded. [Genesis Editor Initiated] [Skill: F-Rank Meditation -> Optimized -> S-Rank: Idling Reverie] While others meditate for years to sense a trickle of mana, Finn gains proficiency by daydreaming. While others chant long incantations, Finn spends coin to rewrite the spell’s code, turning a spark into an inferno. But the System isn’t free. It runs on one thing: Money. To survive the Abyssal horrors lurking in the shadows and the corrupt mages ruling the city, Finn needs gold. Lots of it. From brewing black-market tonics to exploiting dungeon glitches, Finn is going to monetize magic and optimize his way to godhood. They call it cheating. He calls it a feature. --- About the Series: Dive into a fast-paced LitRPG / Progression Fantasy set in a gritty fantasy world. Features a pragmatic protagonist, skill optimization, alchemy, light kingdom-building elements, and a system where money literally buys power. No harems, just gains.
