In a world where the supernatural collides with the ordinary, dungeons—dangerous rifts to other realms—begin appearing across the city, threatening humanity. The Hunter Association, tasked with sealing these rifts, relies on Guides who are psychically linked to Hunters with extraordinary powers.

A former soldier, becomes a newly awakened Guide at 27, struggling to adapt to his role. Paired with an S-ranked Hunter, a reckless veteran esper, he faces the daunting challenge of navigating deadly dungeons filled with nightmarish creatures. Their partnership is strained—A disciplined and methodical solider, and an esper who's impulsive and dismissive of rules.

As dungeons appear more frequently, each mission tests their limits and teamwork. While the Guide adjusts to his new life and role, the esper wrestles with his haunted past and growing responsibilities. Together, they uncover a disturbing pattern behind the dungeon outbreaks, suggesting a larger, sinister plot at play.

Amid the chaos, the guide grapples with losing his former life and his growing attachment to his esper, while the looming danger threatens to push them—and their fragile trust—apart. Every decision they make could determine the city's fate, or possibly the entire world.

NOTE: This is a slow-burn light-romance BL. It means there are no mature or sexual themes, and it focuses on action, plot, character growth, and relationships between characters and their adversaries.

"The chief should be sitting in the middle of a small group of orcs, eating the bones of some drakes. It's what they feed on, and why the drakes stay away from the mountain," Silas went on to explain. Penn nodded in thanks for the explanation as they crossed the thin land bridge, avoiding the lava waves.

"So, as we discussed in the meeting; Nathan will stun the Dominus, Silas and myself will deal aggro to the several orcs around the chief, Val will do Val's thing, and kiddo will finish off the grunts," Summer said as they approached the island. Everyone nodded at the confirmation of the plan.

While approaching the center, the ground began to shake more and more, making their steps to be unsteady. The group, besides Penn, seemed to be more confused and concerned about the tremors.
