The First and Last Emperor [LitRPG, SysApoc, Mage]

Solis was just a boy when the System descended, rewriting reality with alien rules and erasing the Old World in an instant. The survivors call it the Apocalypse. He calls it opportunity. Born into obscurity, Solis wields pure magic in a world where others cling to swords and guns, his ambition as sharp as his spells. Epigraphs from the future whisper of the tyrant he will become—the First and Last Emperor, feared for flooding nations and bending the System itself to his will. But the present is raw survival: a shattered earth, warring factions, and the creeping dread that the System’s arrival was no accident. As Solis carves his path from weakling to warlord, the real question isn’t whether he’ll seize power, but what he’ll sacrifice to keep it.
