Thirty-two years ago, the world did not collapse because of war, plague, or a falling meteor. It began to change on the night dark blue-black dimensional Gates appeared in the centers of major cities across the globe. For a few days, those Gates remained silent. Then they proved to humanity that the other side was never meant for ordinary people.

Inside the Gates were dungeons: deep paths, vast chambers, monster nests, magical resources, and bosses that had to be killed in order to close the doors. If no one cleared a dungeon within seven days, the Gate would break, and everything inside would pour into the real world like a nightmare with claws, fangs, and the smell of blood.

Some humans awakened power. They came to be known as “Hunters”: people with far greater magical power than ordinary humans, unique magical aura colors, and the ability to fight monsters. But even hunters remained bound by their own ranks. For most people, magical power barely changed after awakening.

So the world built a new order: Hunter Associations, private guilds, Gate clearance auctions, monster-core markets, magical hospitals, hunter ranking broadcasts, and black markets that sold everything from dungeon information to forbidden artifacts. People still lived, studied, worked, paid mortgages, and scrolled social media, but above every city, the shadow of a Gate was never truly gone.

But in a world where everything should be limited by rank, law, and magical power amount, something is beginning to awaken. Something that is not a hunter, not a monster, and not registered in any Association database.

That something is you.
