It was a normal world. Everyone lived a normal life until one day, people started disappearing one after another. That was a year ago. At first, people thought it was a usual case of kidnapping. But as time passed, the disappearances further escalated. Numerous operations were launched to discover the whereabouts of the missing people. However, these attempts were futile. No one who went missing was ever seen again.

It was a matter which didn't concern Zaen. An 19-year-old dropout whose life wasn't as messed up as the others. His parents had abandoned him and his little brother. But as long as he had his little brother with him, the world could go to hell for all he cared. Until one day his brother, Aeron didn't come home after his school. He looked for him everywhere... but it was the same. He too had vanished like he never existed. The police were no help either. They simply declared him 'missing'. And just like that Zaen lost the only person he had in his life. It had been a week since Aeron's disappearance. Zaen had lost all hope. 

Until... he received a text on his phone. It was in a language he had never seen before but somehow he knew what it said.

[Congratulations mortal! You have been selected to be humanity's champion!]

[There are unclaimed items in your inventory. Claim them to get briefed on your first task. You can access the inventory just by thinking about it.]

What is going on here? Humanity's champion? Inventory?

As soon as he thought about inventory, a bright screen appeared in front of him. The next moment his attire was completely changed and he had a knife in his hands.

[MIssion 1: RECLAIMER.]
[Introduction: There have been mysterious disappearances in your area. Find and eliminate the cause of the disappearances.]
[Task: Kill the Charred Ghoul hiding in the local park.]
[Rewards: ???]
[Failure to complete the task would result in the death of all the disappeared humans.]
[Time Limit: 2 days.]

Zaen didn't know what was happening. But all he cared about the chance he had been given to save Aeron and he wasn't going to waste it. Even if he had to die.

Alone: Tale of a monster hunter

<p>Following the massacre at the special force HQ, the entire city had been placed under martial law by an announcement the president made himself. And the control of the region was handed over to the special force. But there was also another announcement that Major Tom Killen was no longer the head of the force. Instead, his place was given to Mary Langford, the head of the RnD department.</p>

<p>Mary did not waste any time after ascending as the chief of the special force and immediately made quite a few laws that the people of Lizan had to follow without asking any questions. According to her laws, no one was allowed to leave their home until and unless it was a medical emergency. Even in that case, they had to inform the special force and they will either send in a doctor or organise transportation for the patient.</p>
