One-sentence premise: While the whole world is fighting zombies and building bases in the apocalypse, my System forces me to practice civil-service exam questions among the ruins, with the goal of becoming the first civil servant after the apocalypse.
Synopsis:
When the zombie virus broke out, other people awakened lightning, spatial powers, or healing abilities. I, on the other hand, was bound to the [Land a Civil Service Job System].
Main quest: Successfully pass the Administrative Aptitude Test and the Essay Writing exam in an apocalyptic environment.
So while my teammates laid down covering fire on the front lines, I practiced abstract reasoning behind cover. While survivors fought over a piece of bread, I traded expired canned food for model essays.
An esper mocked me: “What's the point of doing practice questions these days?”
Then, in the third year of the apocalypse, the Reconstruction Committee was established and issued its first recruitment notice: “Urgently seeking administrative professionals with experience in established government positions. Preference will be given to qualified applicants.”
