As the lone player gains a mysterious system that unlocks hidden truths and the malevolent Monarch deities, they must navigate shifting alliances, global conflict, and the looming threat of a full‑scale Dungeon Break that could end civilization itself.

World Overview

The story takes place in an urban fantasy that started off exactly like our current real life world until a mega disaster took place named the “Dungeon Break” all of the sudden these blue gates started appearing all over the world. this would’ve caused a mega extinction of all humans but some people randomly gained these powers through a process called awakening. Human can be awakened into many different ranks starting at F rank and then going in the order from weakest to strongest E, D, C, B, A, S, and then the strongest people in the world are awakened as National Rank. These awakened humans are called hunters and are the only ones able to fight the monsters in the blue gates.

Geography & Nations

It has all countries and geography’s of the real world. For example: United States of America, Japan, South Korea, Europe.

Races & Cultures

there are humans in the real world but in the gates (dungeons) there are many races such as goblins, orcs, spiders, frost elves, trolls, etc.

Current Conflicts

All Nations have guilds that are struggling for power across a world wide scale as strong hunters are very rare and very powerful so they all fight for strong hunters to join them, (A ranks are where hunters are considered to be really strong.)

Magic & Religion

Hunters can awaken as different types. Mages, Healers, Tanks, Assassins, Summoners, Swordsman. All awakened hunter can use skills but only mages or healers can use full magic. The deities of the world are in the form of Monarchs. No one knows about them except the system. The system is designed to be granted to one player and give them the opportunity to get stronger while all other awakened are stuck at a specific power level.

If a blue gate (a dungeon) is left open for a week, it will “Dungeon Break” and spill all of the monsters inside into the real world. This usually cause mass destruction and many casualties.
