COZMART: Corner Shop of Visiting Gods

He clocked in for minimum wage—now every barcode beep keeps the cosmos from imploding.

Eathan Lin wanted three things in life: finish his CS degree, keep his minimum-wage corner shop gig, and maybe stop living on instant noodles.

The universe delivers… a [SYSTEM].

Now his shifts at COZMART—an unremarkable corner shop run by the coffee-addict “Mister White”—have turned into a cosmic traffic hub. Gods drop in unannounced, receipt printers spit out talismans, and Eathan’s new weapon is a gold-laced barcode scanner that can price-check reality.

Guided (read: bullied) by his suspiciously immortal boss, Eathan is dragged from flickering fluorescent aisles into rift-torn cities, spectral battlefields, and realms that rewrite themselves on a whim. Not to mention, each quest syncs another shard of a “missing fragment” to his soul, nudging him closer to something far less mortal—and far more explosive—than a part-time intern.
