In this world where Hunters with various magical powers battle monsters from invading the defenceless humanity, Sung Jin-Woo was the weakest of all the Hunters, barely able to make a living.

However, a mysterious System grants him the power of the ‘Player’, setting him on a course for an incredible and often times perilous Journey.

Follow Sung Jin-Woo as he embarks on an adventure to become an unparalleled existence through his “Level-Up” system - the only one in the entire world!

My Opinion: 116 chapters +, FREE or Unlockable Online 

Note: There’s also a translated light novel version of the story, but this review is for the web comic.

The first 10 chapters are a little stretched out, but accomplish what they need to in establishing that dungeons and monsters exist in this world as do Hunters who kill said monsters and complete the dungeons for rewards. However, the main character (MC) is the weakest Hunter on record and on his latest dive into a dungeon, things go terribly wrong. His group is killed off or abandons him and he is left alone only to discover he’s secretly completed a hidden quest. The chapters clearly establish just how weak the MC is and how power means everything in this world.

The RPG stuff appears in chapter 11 when the MC gets an RPG interface that lets him level up, increase his stats, access a system store, notifications, and get amazing items, skills, and abilities. The MC is the only one with the RPG system though. 

The artwork for the comic is great and really pushes the story into another level of enjoyment. 

Overall, once the web comic gets to the RPG powers I was all in on this story. The web series is a great action adventure comic about a weak guy who is determined to increase his power despite the overwhelming odds he faces. Great stuff.

Score: 8 out of 10
