I Kept Pressing the 100-Million Button and Came Out on Top

Allen Rodol is on the brink of expulsion from the prestigious Grand Swordcraft Academy. Lacking any natural aptitude for the blade, he has earned nothing but scorn from his peers and instructors alike. His situation turns dire when the academy’s most gifted student challenges him to a duel with unforgiving stakes: victory or permanent removal from the school. With no hope of defeating such an opponent through conventional means, Allen faces the end of his academic career. On the eve of this seemingly impossible match, a mysterious hermit approaches Allen and offers him an extraordinary artifact—a single button that transports the user into an alternate reality for one hundred million years of uninterrupted training time. Desperate and left with no other options, Allen accepts the gift without hesitation. Yet a single use proves insufficient for his ambition. He presses the button again and again, stacking session upon session until he has accumulated well over a billion years of relentless sword practice. Armed with an incomprehensible depth of experience forged in isolation, the young man once dismissed as the “Reject Swordsman” steps onto the dueling grounds transformed. The academy, and soon the entire world, is about to witness the true extent of what endless dedication can achieve.
