Chapter 0: Prologue


    Life is cruel.


    Those who are chosen will be able to achieve anything they want without much effort.


    While those who aren’t will struggle endlessly, no matter what they hope to achieve.


    This is the truth in the world of hunters.


    In a world where hunters must fight off monster outbreaks from gates, talent decides everything.


    Geniuses can learn all kinds of abilities and rank them up to become a superstar in a near instant.


    They become heroes admired by all.


    On the flip side, those without talent may never gain a skill and will not be able to increase their stats no matter what they do.


    It is an immutable, universal law.


    But…


    At that moment, I decided to give up on everything,


    「 ‘Tower of Trials’ has selected all suitable candidates from Earth. 」


    The seemingly sacrosanct law of the universe reformed itself…


    「 Please select your difficulty. 」


    I, the failed aspiring hunter, was finally given an opportunity to prove myself.
