In a world where hunters—human warriors who possess supernatural abilities—must battle deadly monsters to protect all mankind from certain annihilation, a notoriously weak hunter named Sung Jin-woo finds himself in a seemingly endless struggle for survival. One day, after narrowly surviving an overwhelmingly powerful double dungeon that nearly wipes out his entire party, a mysterious program called the System chooses him as its sole player and in turn, gives him the unique ability to level up in strength. This is something no other hunter is able to do, as a hunter's abilities are set once they awaken. Jinwoo then sets out on a journey as he fights against all kinds of enemies, both man and monster, to discover the secrets of the dungeons and the true source of his powers. He soon discovers that he has been chosen to inherit the position of Shadow Monarch, essentially turning him into an immortal necromancer known as the "King of the Dead" who has absolute rule over the dead, created by a god while in the middle of the war between its two creations of light and dark, the Rulers and the Monarch. He is the only Monarch who fights to save humanity, as the other Monarchs, who are actually the leaders of all monsters, are trying to kill him and wipe out the humans.

02:33My dark stock is smashed and hurt and pride

03:04But God's like, I'm getting wrong.
03:07Cause I, they're playing cyber.
03:10I should never throw away.
03:13Yeah, I'm tapping.
03:21Bottoms up.
03:23That's 19 rates cleared as per our deal.
03:31Yeah, and thanks to you, we pulled it off without too much trouble.
03:35What you got next?
03:37Let's see.
03:38First is passing the written exam and getting my Guildmaster's license.
03:42After that, I'll start negotiating with my dad.
03:45Makes sense.
03:47What about you?
03:47Got any big plans?
03:49I'll probably be out of contact for a while.
03:56Got some traveling I need to do.
03:58Dude.
04:01You okay?
04:06Boss, if it's a pain to put up with me, you can just come out and say it.
04:10And I promise that I won't bother you anymore.
04:16Are you drunk already?
04:17The truth is, there's a good decade between me and my brother.
04:23And I don't think he likes me very much.
04:25He's never once shown me any sort of brotherly affection.
04:29On the other hand, you not only saved my life, but kept helping me afterward.
04:34So, you know.
04:35Sometimes I think it would be better if you were my older brother.
04:41Then you're in luck.
05:02Because from now on...
05:07I'll consider you my friend and my younger brother.
05:10We're brothers?
05:21Go on.
05:22Eat as much as you want.
05:24I'll grill you up a ton.
05:25No, no, no, no.
05:26You don't have to do that.
05:27Want me to add lemon juice?
05:29No.
05:30You're drunk drunk, huh?
05:31I've never been more sober.
05:34Uh-huh.
05:35Sure, buddy.
05:36Okay.
05:40Have we confirmed his origin?
05:44He claims to be a hunter from another country.
05:47According to him, he only just escaped the gate he'd been trapped in for the last ten years.
05:51Seems the exit he took spit him out of a gate in the U.S.
05:56Well, that's quite a story.
05:59Anything else?
06:00Some of the things he's said aren't adding up, so we're consulting with a hunter from his home country.
06:05We can't rule out the possibility that he's a beast.
06:08And if that's the case?
06:10Don't worry, sir.
06:12The hunter we've requested assistance from is an S-ranked expat living in D.C.
06:17Mr. Huang, huh?
06:19Mm-hmm.
06:20As soon as he arrives, we'll start the interrogation.
06:23The sooner the better.
06:25Has this guy given us any name to call him?
06:27He has, but it didn't show on our databases.
06:31Name's Il Hwan Sung, or so he says.
06:40I'll be gone for about a week.
06:43First it's work, and now you're off traveling?
06:45Well, someone's been busy lately.
06:48Eh, just a lot to do, that's all.
06:50So, who's the lucky lady then?
06:52Like I told you, a friend.
06:58You know you can just bring her here sometime, right?
07:09I was around level 20 when I fought the Cerberus.
07:12Since then, I've gotten a lot stronger.
07:16My level's now three times higher.
07:19I should be able to handle what's behind this door.
07:22Let's see what we're working with here.
07:48What?
07:49A quest?
07:50The castle is swarming with demons.
07:52You will receive a special reward for defeating them and collecting their souls.
07:57In order to clear the quest, I need to collect 10,000 souls?
08:02There's that many in here?
08:07Whatever.
08:08I haven't lost sight of my real objective.
08:11Whether it's 10,000 or 10,000,000.
08:15I'll kill them all.
08:20You wish to take over the guild, is that it?
08:30Yes.
08:31Hmm.
08:33And you're asking this, knowing full well that Jinseng's already working on it?
08:38Well, I think his plan to bring in an outsider to run the guild is too risky.
08:42Respectfully, respectfully, sir.
08:44I would be a bit...
08:45What?
08:46Yes.
08:46I would be a bit nervous.
08:47This hunter you've been working with, Jinseng, present at the Double Dungeon.
08:52Also the raid that wiped out Dongsook Hwang's team, and that murderous incident with the surveillance team hunter.
08:59It's incredible how he's managed to survive all that.
09:01He's participated in every single one of your raids, correct?
09:09Not only that, but during the Red Gate incident from the other day,
09:14it was apparently Hunter Sung who led the survivors to safety.
09:21I assume you were only able to earn that Guildmaster's license by borrowing his strength.
09:27Yet you still want to be Guild leader?
09:31You're right.
09:37But even so, the one running the Eugene Guild should be me.
09:45As things stand now, Jinsung's plan-
09:47Very well. We'll try things your way.
09:50What?
09:51Under one condition.
09:56After what happened with the Red Gate,
09:57I've heard rumors that the White Tiger Guild has been looking to scout Hunter Sung.
10:02But, I want you to convince him to join up with us instead.
10:07Can you do that?
10:10Yes, sir.
10:11Hmm.
10:15Don't disappoint me.
10:21A literal mountain of demons, and I can't extract any of them.
10:26What a waste.
10:30Hmm.
10:30An entry permit.
10:38Looks like it's time to head up to the second floor.
10:42Huh.
10:43Guess I know how I'm getting there.
10:46This dungeon is surprisingly big.
10:49Who would have thought there'd be a whole city inside of a building?
10:54Though,
10:54All this walking is getting pretty annoying.
11:05You're about to save me a lot of time and effort.
11:08You're a big boy.
11:11All right, then.
11:12Let's get moving.
11:17What a pain we have.
11:19Huh?
11:19Huh?
11:19Huh?
11:20Huh?
11:20Huh?
11:21Huh?
11:21Huh?
11:21Huh?
11:22Huh?
11:22Huh?
11:23Huh?
11:23Huh?
11:23Huh?
11:24Nice one.
11:32I think I'll call you Tank.
11:34Sound good?
11:49No.
11:50Miss Hane is here?
11:51Feels lucky just seeing her.
11:53And she always looks amazing.
11:55Mm-hmm.
11:56Always.
11:58I don't get it.
12:00Why would we keep the reports of the Flying Ants confidential?
12:03People deserve the truth.
12:05It's on association orders.
12:07They say it would cause a panic if we make the intel public at this stage.
12:11But, sir...
12:12It'll be fine.
12:14For the time being, let's focus on gaining strength.
12:16As the largest domestic guild doing so will help us execute our duties, and expand.
12:25I thought this was going to be an S-rank dungeon when I got the key, but these guys weren't that tough.
12:30More like the upper end of B-rank.
12:34They come in drones, and get fiercer the higher up I go.
12:38I'm making decent progress, though, by only killing the demons I need to, to advance.
12:46A good strategy, because if the demon's castle is laid out like the original tower, there are a hundred floors to get through.
12:53That's a ton of XP, so how strong will I be once I reach the top?
13:00My supplies won't last forever, and Tina thinks I'll be back in a week.
13:05This fight is really a battle against time.
13:23Let's see how far I can get.
13:39A red one.
13:50Of course Hunter Sung would be out.
13:54Well, at least his sister was home.
13:56Thanks to her, we know he's off on some kind of trip.
13:59Meaning we came all this way for nothing, then.
14:02We're gathering intel, which is crucial since he quit doing raids.
14:06He can't have left the country, though.
14:07The association has been keeping tabs on him, and when they lost him, he was in the middle of a city.
14:12Wait, you knew all of that about him already?
14:16I have to, it's my job.
14:18But man, I wish I knew where he was.
14:24Think I'll take on that boss there myself.
14:27You guys, you know what to do.
14:29With a good chunk of points in my intellect now, I can summon more soldiers, and have more magical power to maintain them.
14:51Which makes fighting easier.
14:54But, I mean, can it be called a fight if your opponent doesn't even move?
14:59If it's not gonna attack, I guess I'll...
15:01Do you think that's gonna work on me?
15:15I did that with a single punch.
15:18My strength stat's pretty broken.
15:26What's happened with a Cerberus, too?
15:28It's not slowing down.
15:46How's something that big so fast?
15:48But, I just need to wait for an opening.
15:52Now!
15:53I've got you!
16:07It's smart.
16:08Predicts my moves and everything.
16:11It's seeming vulnerable.
16:13If not for those beady little eyes.
16:20Gotta stop this thing from zipping around.
16:23But, how?
16:26That'll work.
16:38Should have been watching your step there.
16:40Should have been watching your step there.
16:40They say you're a magic beast that can talk.
17:05Yeah, and I keep telling them I'm no beast.
17:09If what you're after is proof, I have zero issues whatsoever doing a DNA test.
17:14Can it, you creep?
17:16If I don't ask a question, then you stay silent.
17:18I'm pissed off as it is.
17:20What with all my fun put on hold, I swear.
17:24They even went and wrote a bunch of dumb paperwork for you.
17:28Hey, let me ask something.
17:30Can it, I said.
17:31How much has humanity learned about the gates and magic beasts?
17:36What?
17:37Since gates and beasts first appeared, how much have you learned?
17:41What are you getting at, freak show?
17:43The dungeons, the gates, the beasts.
17:46They're just the tip of the iceberg.
17:49The power to bring forth the ultimate catastrophe has awakened.
17:53What catastrophe?
17:54The ultimate one.
17:57Not much else I can say.
18:00So?
18:03My primary goal is to prevent it from coming to pass.
18:08Whatever you are, it's not a conversationalist.
18:11And even if this threat did exist, every corner of the world's got hunters who'd be willing to take it on.
18:16Numbers won't help.
18:17Most will either be devoured or enslaved and used against us.
18:22You seem fairly strong yourself, but...
18:24But what?
18:26Tch.
18:27Not every day you see a magic beast with a name of his own.
18:31And look at that.
18:33A wife and kids, too.
18:35Huh.
18:36Heh.
18:38Do you remember your son's name?
18:41Gino.
18:44Did that trigger you somehow?
18:48I'm the one asking questions, not you.
18:50You'll answer that.
18:52My answer is screw you.
18:54But I'll also fill you in on a little secret.
18:58Your son is dead.
19:01You got anything to say?
19:03Tell him in the next life once you eat it, too.
19:06Come on, it's almost too easy.
19:25Sorry, but did my boys give you trouble?
19:28Weren't expecting it to go this way out.
19:30I wonder if the undead feel fear, but who cares?
19:35Over here!
19:54Move! Move!
19:55I've heard that fights between S-Ranks can affect entire landscapes, laying waste to everything
20:01around them.
20:02Damn.
20:03Maybe we were fortunate.
20:05Could have been much worse, I agree.
20:07Would have been.
20:08But it was over so fast.
20:11Before they could do any more damage, Mr. Huang lost almost instantly.
20:15That was the last of my rations.
20:23I guess I'm done for now.
20:26The 75th floor.
20:2825 floors left, maybe.
20:31Which is still a long way to go.
20:34Well, can't be mad at the gains.
20:37Like the earring I got from the giant on the 50th floor.
20:41And the necklace from the skeleton just now.
20:43They're useful enough on their own, but the set bonus is the cherry on top.
20:49And that empty space tells me there's one more boss with some accessory to win.
20:56Then there's the Sphere of Avarice.
20:59Doesn't affect my stats directly, but I don't have to be the one who uses it.
21:04In the hands of my mages, it'll double their firepower.
21:08And of course, getting the curse random loot box as a quest reward was a win too.
21:14I was worried I'd never get another chance at it.
21:19Oh wow, another key.
21:21I am so shocked.
21:24Really?
21:25Not gonna tell me where or when to use it?
21:29Oh, not like I was really after the key anyway.
21:31On the 50th floor, I got a World Tree Fragment from Avarice's Vulcan.
21:39And on the 75th, I got Echo Forest Spring Water by defeating Metis, the Guide of Souls.
21:45The Elixir of Life only needs three ingredients, and I have two of them.
21:51One more.
21:53One more and I save Mom.
21:57When I come back, it's on.
21:59One more.
22:25I don't have a skill, I don't have a face, I don't have a situation
22:31I don't have a skill, I don't have a feeling, I don't have a feeling
22:38Kiss me!
22:46Sorry, sorry, I'll leave you alone
22:50So I'm sorry, I'll leave you alone
22:54Goodbye, my weakness, like my world
22:57The land of the world and I collide
23:01Look at my heart, we're counting the rules
23:08You know my brain is right so fast
23:11Cause you know, excuse us, I give you all
23:15You know my mind and I'm sorry, I'll leave you alone
23:22So I'm sorry, I'll leave you alone
23:25So I'm sorry, I'll leave you alone
