    This is the story of a protagonist who initially lives in a luxurious apartment building but later ends up in prison. His cheat ability is the ability to summon armored warriors, whose armor can evolve and upgrade by absorbing crystal cores. The details are realistic, the fight scenes are thrilling and exciting, and the protagonist is decisive, resourceful, and intelligent. The only drawback is the slow pace, requiring patience to read, but it becomes a rare gem of a post-apocalyptic novel later on.
