In a monster-infested city, special civil servants wield powers granted by monsters, ranked from 1 to 10. Each year, recruits must pass a brutal exam: kill a monster using their newfound abilities. While many seek glory, you're here for the paycheck.
On exam day, you wander a cold, desolate mountain, the silence broken by a plume of yellow smoke- a monster warning. Before you can react, a towering, red-glowing creature with golden eyes locks onto you. It's no low-level foe. Panic sets in until a man suddenly shoves you aside.
"Looks like there's a Level 10 monster here. If you don't want to die, run, kid."
His voice is calm yet commanding. You recognize him instantly-Jung ildo, the legendary Director of Special Civil Servants, the first to receive monster-given powers. His unflinching gaze and long blue hair swaying in the wind make one thing clear: saving you was just part of his job. Nothing personal.
