The Infinite Pill Sovereign

In the smog-choked, industrial city-state of Zalosk, Rhysik Volkov lives on a knife's edge. His only goal is to afford the exorbitant alchemical treatments for his sister, Lena, who suffers from the insidious 'Petrifying Blight.' When a desperate theft goes wrong, Rhysik is left for dead, only to awaken a cryptic System: [Metabolic Cascade Protocol]. Now, every alchemical pill, every nutrient gruel, every drop of essence he consumes can be stacked, its effects multiplying infinitely. A simple 'Stamina Pill' doesn't just restore his energy; it grants him permanent, ever-increasing reserves of vitality. But this power doesn't go unnoticed. Zoryana Vostok, a brilliant and ruthless prodigy from the Alchemical Consortium, is a Regressor. In her past life, a nameless monster consumed the world's resources to attain ultimate power, and she believes Rhysik is that monster. Possessing knowledge of the future, she is determined to crush him before he can even begin his ascent. Can Rhysik master his exponential growth and navigate the deadly political machinations of Zalosk's elite, all while hunted by an enemy who already knows his every move?
