Ever since I first decided to become an adventurer, I dreamed of becoming the best—defeating the strongest monsters, exploring the deepest dungeons, and writing my name down in history. With my extraordinary talent, I reached the top faster than I ever imagined. But why did it feel so empty? I had always been adventuring alone, without a party, without comrades, without the fun moments an adventurer should have.
