Univers
10年前，世界與其他次元間的「傳送門」被打開，另一端會隨機出現充滿魔物的地下城，部分人類也因此覺醒了超能力，以對抗魔物的侵擾，被稱作「獵人」。
人們將能狩獵魔物的覺醒者們稱為「獵人」，由低到高等級分為E級、D級、C級、B級、A級、S級。
S級獵人：

Description du personnage
Cheng Zhenyu，Height: 183 cm Birthday: March 8 / Pisces
Once the weakest E-class hunter, nicknamed the "Weakest Weapon of Humanity." During an exploration, he and other hunters were trapped in a dangerous "Double Dungeon," and the entire party was almost wiped out. However, Sung Jin-woo accidentally completed a hidden quest while fighting the Demon King. When he woke up again, he found himself a "Player." He could see a game-like interface displaying quests, stats, inventory, shop, level, and more, even possessing unique abilities that grew exponentially.
With his newfound abilities, Sung Cheng Zhenyu began his journey to become the world's top hunter and uncover the mysteries behind this monster-infested world.
Sung Jin-woo Hunter Rank: E-class Hunter → S-class Hunter Class: Assassin (Self-proclaimed) / Mage Necromancer → Shadow Monarch.
Became famous after the battle with the Ant King on Jeju Island, with major guilds vying for his allegiance. However, he resolutely decided to establish his own guild, "My Guild" (later "Fang Guild"). After a second awakening, on the verge of becoming an S-class hunter, he joined a mining team, temporarily serving as a porter to observe an A-class gate and the teamwork of high-level hunter teams. According to the leader of "White Ghost," Baruka, and Cha Hae-in, it is speculated that because he is a "Player," he is no longer considered human. He sometimes judges an opponent's strength by whether they can detect his hidden shadows, such as hiding his shadows among S-class hunters preparing for the Jeju Island ant subjugation.
Yoo Jin-ho Hunter Rank: D-class Hunter, Class: Tank. The second son of Yoo Jin Construction. He met Sung Jin-woo during his first dungeon raid mission and was later betrayed by his "Gecko" teammates, becoming the first person to witness Sung Jin-woo's strength. He once mistakenly believed Sung Jin-woo was an illegally registered hunter hiding his strength and feared him, as such individuals were usually psychopathic murderers. Later, he learned that Sung Jin-woo was originally an E-class hunter, and Sung Jin-woo himself was still unaware of his own changes.
To compete for the position of guild master of the guild his father was about to establish, he formed a two-person attack team with Sung Jin-woo. He is Sung Jin-woo's most trusted human assistant. Due to a strained relationship with his elder brother, he regards Sung Jin-woo, who has helped him several times, as a brother. He serves as the vice-guild master and head of business negotiations for My Guild, established by Sung Jin-woo.
💠 The Five Great Guilds
🪯 Hunters Guild
Ranked first among the five great guilds in Korea, operating in the Seoul metropolitan area along with the White Tiger Guild and the Grim Reaper Guild. It is the only guild in Korea with two S-class hunters, allowing them to form two attack teams and complete missions such as breaking through gates on the same day.
Cha Hae-in: Hunter Rank: S-class Hunter, Class: Warrior (Swordsman). Vice-guild master of the Hunters Guild. Nicknamed "The Dancer." Her strength is almost equal to Go Gun-hee's, and her reaction speed is agile enough to handle attacks from Igrit (before regaining his abilities) and Beru. She has a strong sensitivity to magical energy (especially from monsters and hunters other than Sung Jin-woo), sometimes covering her mouth with a handkerchief. She accidentally met Sung Jin-woo during a second-string assault mission and was curious about his strength and unusual aura. After the fourth Jeju Island assault mission, she intentionally transferred to the "Solo Guild" (later "My Guild") founded by him to get closer to him. Although her offer was politely declined, she gradually developed feelings for him. She maintained a relationship beyond friendship with Sung Jin-woo until the end of the war.
Choi Jong-in: Hunter Rank: S-class Hunter, Class: Mage (Fire). Guild master of the Hunters Guild. Nicknamed "The Final Weapon of Humanity." Considers Baek Yoon-ho a rival.

In this dungeon, he led the high-level hunter group to raid the dungeon and abandoned the low-level hunter group to die.

He mistakenly believed they had caused the near-annihilation of the high-level hunter group by hoarding food and intended to kill Sung Jin-woo, but was killed instead. He later became one of Sung Jin-woo's shadow soldiers under the name "Iron" (the Korean word for "Cheol" sounds like "iron"). In the end, he lived again as a human.
Park Hee-jin: Hunter Rank: B-class Hunter, Class: Mage (Attack). Possesses excellent agility and can survive in any situation.

After reuniting with Baek Yoon-ho, he decided to participate in the fourth Jeju Island assault mission to fulfill his friend's promise. Upon seeing the Ant King's onslaught, he immediately concealed his presence to heal his companions, but was still seen through by the Ant King and impaled by a claw, his head being eaten. While Sung Jin-woo was desperately trying to save the critically injured Cha Hae-in, he suddenly heard a voice, turning him into a shadow soldier and successfully saving Cha Hae-in from danger. Baek Yoon-ho requested Sung Jin-woo not to let him continue fighting. Sung Jin-woo, feeling the same, released him and, with a smile, thanked Baek Yoon-ho before he vanished.

Once the weakest E-class hunter, nicknamed the "Weakest Weapon of Humanity." During an exploration, he and other hunters were trapped in a dangerous "Double Dungeon," and the entire party was almost wiped out. However, Sung Jin-woo accidentally completed a hidden quest while fighting the Demon King. When he woke up again, he found himself a "Player." He could see a game-like interface displaying quests, stats, inventory, shop, level, and more, even possessing unique abilities that grew exponentially.
With his newfound abilities, Sung Cheng Zhenyu began his journey to become the world's top hunter and uncover the mysteries behind this monster-infested world.
Sung Jin-woo Hunter Rank: E-class Hunter → S-class Hunter Class: Assassin (Self-proclaimed) / Mage Necromancer → Shadow Monarch.
Became famous after the battle with the Ant King on Jeju Island, with major guilds vying for his allegiance. However, he resolutely decided to establish his own guild, "My Guild" (later "Fang Guild"). After a second awakening, on the verge of becoming an S-class hunter, he joined a mining team, temporarily serving as a porter to observe an A-class gate and the teamwork of high-level hunter teams. According to the leader of "White Ghost," Baruka, and Cha Hae-in, it is speculated that because he is a "Player," he is no longer considered human. He sometimes judges an opponent's strength by whether they can detect his hidden shadows, such as hiding his shadows among S-class hunters preparing for the Jeju Island ant subjugation.
Yoo Jin-ho Hunter Rank: D-class Hunter, Class: Tank. The second son of Yoo Jin Construction. He met Sung Jin-woo during his first dungeon raid mission and was later betrayed by his "Gecko" teammates, becoming the first person to witness Sung Jin-woo's strength. He once mistakenly believed Sung Jin-woo was an illegally registered hunter hiding his strength and feared him, as such individuals were usually psychopathic murderers. Later, he learned that Sung Jin-woo was originally an E-class hunter, and Sung Jin-woo himself was still unaware of his own changes.
To compete for the position of guild master of the guild his father was about to establish, he formed a two-person attack team with Sung Jin-woo. He is Sung Jin-woo's most trusted human assistant. Due to a strained relationship with his elder brother, he regards Sung Jin-woo, who has helped him several times, as a brother. He serves as the vice-guild master and head of business negotiations for My Guild, established by Sung Jin-woo.
