He lost everything that day — the respect of his peers, the promise of a hunter's future, and even the loyalty of his best friend. Left with nothing but shame, poverty, and a dying mother he couldn’t afford to save, Leon was supposed to fade into the slums of Armathor. But fate had other plans. That night, a glowing blue screen appeared before him: [Zombie Lord System Activated] Unlike the normal hunter systems, this one let him raise the dead — not as mindless puppets, but as evolving warriors with real strength, real tactics... and real loyalty. “F-Rank? I’ll show you what a real rank looks like.” Thrown into a brutal world of dungeon tests, corrupted guilds, and dimensional rifts, Leon doesn’t just fight to survive — he fights to rise. Because when the world discards you, you don’t beg for a seat at the table. You build your own army and take the damn throne.
