Dying is just data. Revenge is a 10- second delay. In a world ruled by powerful Hunter Guilds and the strict laws of the Hunter Association, Jaxen Vane was nothing more than an E-Rank laborer—disposable bait for corporate meat-grinders. Born with zero combat skills and a comatose sister to support, his only goal was survival. Until the day a routine dungeon raid turned into a deadly corporate cover-up. Trapped by mutated monsters and betrayed by his own vanguard, Jaxen accidentally triggers a late awakening. But his system isn't like the standard blue interfaces everyone else possesses.
