Atlas Aurox has lived his entire life in poverty. Orphaned young, he survives by picking up the Crystals left in the Dungeon by true Adventurers. But everything changes when he undergoes the Mantle Trial—a test which could grant him the power to step into the Dungeon as one of the elite instead of their Mundane servant. Yet power comes with a price. The world of Adventurers is darker, bloodier, and far more treacherous than Atlas ever imagined. Monsters and Gods lurk not only in the depths, but in the ambitions of those who call themselves allies.

Iain knows which way the RGHIA are leaning. Human life to them is just another inconvenience on their way to total domination. Jerks. It figures though. It isn’t like the System is suddenly going to cut him any slack even after turning the city into a caged death match. Hell, he would’ve settled for a breather, but no such luck. At this point it’s clear the System or the RGHIA hates his guts—meaning he and his family are pretty screwed.
