In an era where Divine Cores awaken, high schooler Wyatt Mercer awakens the lowest of the low — a Grade-F God of Gastronomy. Mocked and expelled from the academy, he's left with only one mission: save his gravely ill sister, Cora. To survive, he sets up a stall selling stinky tofu. But when a customer's Core unexpectedly strengthens after eating his food, Mercer discovers his secret power — whoever eats his cooking with satisfaction signs a pact, lending him their divine power. From there, Mercer rises through the ranks, and proves that even the weakest god can feed the strongest — and make them kneel as well.

High schooler Asher Vale is stuck as a weak nobody—until he bonds with the God of Training System. Every rep, every run, every drop of sweat makes him stronger. Watch him crush enemies, win girls, and train to become a god!
