About this listen
Eric was born in a world governed by the Great System, in the family of Aren Bergman, a respected miner from Orchus. But the joy of gaining a son was overshadowed by the newborn's terrible affliction. Eric was completely nulled-level zero and no characteristics points. The only things keeping him from dying were his tiny base supplies of "life" and "energy".
The medicine woman who delivered Eric believes this to be the work of the evil spirit, Bug. Due to the peculiar laws of the Great System, Eric cannot use experience essences or characteristics tablets, so he risks having to spend his whole life confined to a bed. But his father finds a solution. He takes out a large bank loan and goes to the capital where he buys a few artifacts of the Ancients on the black market, which have no level restriction.
Despite having the artifacts, Eric is still very feeble, and everyone in town thinks him a freak. But at least he can move on his own, and that gives the Bergmans hope. But alas, it isn't for long. On Eric's 14th birthday, his father and mother die in a mining accident. The bank takes their house, and Eric is left with no choice but to work off the remaining debt in the Dungeons of the Crooked Mountains. And so begins the story of a nulled boy's struggle to survive....

Middling Story
The story leaves quite a bit to be desired. It was swallowed by all the grinding the mc has to do. from essence to tablets to tokens. There was quite alot of currency with no interactive way to utilize it. They put quite a bit of effort into crumbz and happy but that went nowhere, the cat got leveled up but they didnt showcase the difference in a meaningful way. the way skills and stats are translated into fights is left up to author interpretation. the way the mc dosent realise his potential kinda ticks me off aswell.
Alot of story threads are left unresolved leaving the final product messy and lacking focus.

sigh
The MC's is a coward pretending not to be he would rather run then fight it's always some external reason the makes him fight like when he's lock in the stone city. Then there are the artifacts they say that they can be leveled up and gain more characteristic's but the MC does nothing to try and find out how to make them stronger which would make him stronger

Translation not great
Translation did not come across well and needed more work. It is very clear that this was not written in english as it felt like no time was put into making the sentences flow. This was often jarring.
MC gets into trouble, not understand why, then be smart about similar situation due to having life lessons from family that would have prevented the original problem from arising.
I struggled to finish the book.
