The Path of an S-Rank Adventurer: From Deadweight to Weapon Master

The adventuring party Sacred is quickly becoming famous for its incredible heroic exploits—and its supremely talented leader, Sasha. Almost no one remembers that Sacred ever had a co-leader: Hyse. Once Sasha’s childhood friend, he was booted from the party, reduced from his already tenuous position as workhorse to plain deadweight. Devastation at the betrayal and shame over his own weakness drives Hyse to pour his bitterness into learning his Ability, an unfathomable power not even he fully understands. Now mistrustful but determined, Hyse steps up to take on the world—and the comrades who abandoned him.

Thanks to the efforts of Hyse, Sasha, and other adventurers, normalcy has returned to Heiberg, but that doesn’t mean Hyse and Sasha can relax just yet. As the two continue to get stronger, they both begin to prepare separate expeditions of the Six Forbidden Labyrinths, an adventurer’s ultimate challenge. But in the midst of this, a newcomer arrives, hoping to prove themselves the strongest adventurer in the world. Will Hyse and Sasha rise to this new challenge? And what awaits these two S-ranks in the Six Forbidden Labyrinths. Will their journey end where so many others have fallen before, or will they be the first to achieve the impossible?
