With that message, he finds himself reincarnated as the son of a wealthy Chaebol within the game. But there’s a catch—he possesses no physical talent, only boundless wealth and a terrible body.

‘Fortunately, there’s a solution.’

In this world, a master’s talent doesn’t limit their summons, and equipment can be augmented. And the class capable of summoning the most powerful allies is…

“Necromancer, isn’t it?”

Say goodbye to the poor necromancers!

A true Chaebol Necromancer has arrived!”

Zombies, cold waves, floods, earthquakes, acid rain, tsunamis, extreme cold, high temperatures, land pollution, seven days of darkness... Since the year 2563, humanity had endured such apocalyptic crises for a full ten years.In those ten years, plants mutated, animals mutated, the food that once fed humans became toxic, and the lands that could once grow plants were now polluted. The living space for humans was increasingly compressed.And at this critical moment, a five-story supermarket suddenly appeared.Here, one could buy piping hot oden, tasty instant noodles, and sweet White Rabbit Creamy Candies...Countless Superpower Users greedily wanted to take the supermarket for themselves.And then...They were all kicked flying by Su Yinhe with one kick.Su Yinhe spread her hands, “I didn't bring the Infinite Supermarket here to be robbed; I came to make money.”A Superpower User who felt like he struck gold after buying a box of instant noodles: “Miss Su is beautiful and kind-hearted, to only charge me ten gold bars for such a huge box of instant noodles.”A female Superpower User who hadn't tasted sugar in ten years, with tears streaming down as she savored the candy: “Such sweet sugar, and it only costs one gold bar. Miss Su truly is a great person.”A Superpower User who ate the supermarket's oden and then didn't want to leave: “I'm twenty-five this year, 188, Gold Element superpower...”Su Yinhe, only wanting to make money while holding a pile of gold bars: “Keep it low-key, low-key.”

It all started when the protagonist downloaded a game called “The Fool (Beta Version),” marking a pivotal shift in the style of his life. This was no ordinary game; it lacked visuals and music, composed solely of lines of text and a multitude of choices. Yet, each decision within the game had the power to alter the player's destiny, for on the other side of the game lay a real, unknown world.Players were unable to physically enter this otherworld or see its landscapes, experiencing the alternate realm solely through text, vicariously living each step of their character's journey.As the game progressed, not only could rewards from the game materialize in the real world, but creatures from the game began to appear in reality as well.Then came the day the game was released for global public testing.An era quietly unfolded, where the masses embarked on explorations and treasure hunts in an alternate universe through 'textual adventure,' heralding a new chapter of engagement and discovery.
