Reborn Before the Apocalypse I Built a Fortress to Save My Village

After being torn apart by a mutated cat, I jolted awake, consciousness flooding back in fragments.

In my previous life, an unknown planet had released massive quantities of some unidentified element, causing animals on Earth to grow at rates thousands—even tens of thousands—of times faster than normal.

Mutated rats. Mutated cats. Beetles the size of tanks. They overran the entire world in days.

Against those enormous beasts, humans were nothing. Fragile. Helpless.
