Summary
She was nobody. A college girl with no powers, no allies, and no reason for the universe to care whether she lived or died.
Then the System arrived.
Victoria Castellano didn't ask for an ability. She didn't earn it. But she's going to use it. Starting in the war-torn ruins of Angola, Vicky begins a climb that no one sees coming and no one can stop. Warlords fall overnight. Nations are rebuilt from the ashes. Technologies that shouldn't exist start appearing in cities that were burning a year ago.
In a world of aliens, monsters, and men who can crack continents with their bare hands, Vicky doesn't have the strength to match them. She has something worse: the patience to outthink them, the speed to outrun them, and absolutely zero intention of playing fair.
By the time the capes notice her, she's already ahead. By the time the world understands what she's building, it'll be too late to say no.
This is not a hero's story. This is how an empire gets made.
