In a world where mysterious dungeons appear without warning, humanity’s survival depends on awakened hunters—individuals gifted with powers to fight the monsters lurking within. Ranked from F to the legendary SSS, hunters risk their lives to clear these dungeons and harvest the valuable crystal shards dropped by defeated creatures.

Vanitas Estroheim, a frail and struggling F-rank hunter, is the weakest of the weak. Mocked by peers and barely scraping by, he fights only to pay off crushing hospital bills for his comatose mother. His life is a constant cycle of humiliation and desperation, with no hope for improvement.

When Vanitas joins a raid on a C-rank dungeon far beyond his abilities, disaster strikes. The portal turns violet—a sign of an unstable dungeon—and the team is thrown into chaos. Trapped inside with no way out, Vanitas and his team face a terrifying creature that wipes them out one by one.

On the verge of death, a mysterious voice speaks to Vanitas: “Do you wish to live?” With nothing to lose, he accepts—and awakens to a new power that could change everything.

Now, Vanitas must rise from the bottom, uncover the truth behind the dungeons, and carve out his destiny in a world that sees him as worthless. The journey to the top will be brutal, but he has no intention of staying at the bottom.

Can the weakest hunter defy fate and become the strongest?
