With each floor, Aruma faces increasingly powerful enemies, from swarms of giant insects to frozen beasts and masters of dark arts. As he progresses, he uncovers abilities and strengths he never imagined, relying on his ingenuity and will to endure.

But as he climbs, he realizes that his enemies are not limited to the dungeon itself; other warriors, representatives of different planets and dimensions, also fight to survive, seeing each other as rivals. Amid alliances, betrayals, epic battles, and moments of personal discovery, Aruma learns that in this life-or-death game, true strength is not always found in skill or power, but in the courage to face the unknown and the hope for a future that, though uncertain, still shines before him.
