Kenichi Yamada has spent most of his adult life chasing the next punishing challenge in online gaming, only to find the modern landscape dominated by forgiving mechanics. As if fate were listening to his desire, Kenichi receives a sudden, mysterious invitation to an untitled game promising an inconceivable level of difficulty. Delighted, he selects its most ruthless setting without hesitation—Hell Mode.
However, instead of diving into another virtual game, Kenichi is reborn in another world as a peasant named Allen, forced to grapple with a cruelly complex system where even the basics of progression demand relentless effort. Consequently, Allen must build his strength from the ground up and learn to master the summoner class. With his resilience being tested at every turn, Allen embarks on an uncharted journey that might just prove to burn hotter than actual hell.
Allen confronts the kidnappers inside the magic ship. Using the power of his summoned beast, Allen and Cecil manage to hold them off and escape from the ship. Afterwards, Allen and Cecil continue their escape, evading the relentless pursuit of the kidnapper's boss, Dagraha. They arrive in the forest of Granvelle territory and seem to have escaped safely... but Murdergalsh, whom Allen fought in the past, stands in their way.
Allen finds Cecil, who has sneaked out of the mansion. Having learned about the death of her brother Mihai and the true meaning of "noble duties," Cecil is heartbroken, and Allen suggests that they leave town together... Some time passes, and a messenger from the royal family and Carnel, the lord of the Carnel territory, visit the Granvelle household. The two make a proposal that is detrimental to the Granvelle territory!? And yet another trial awaits Allen and Cecil...
Zenov's investigation revealed that the mining area in the mountain range where the White Dragon had left, and the surrounding region, had become a den of magical beasts. Allen decided to hunt down the magical beasts in the area to prevent further casualties. Having conquered all the goblin villages in just six months, Allen then began hunting orcs. However, the appearance of magic-using orcs proved to be a major challenge. At that moment, who appeared before Allen?!
One day, a B-rank monster, Murdergalsh, attacks near the town. The knights and gatekeepers fight valiantly against the superior opponent, but are at a disadvantage. Allen rushes to the scene and becomes a decoy to save the people under attack. Murdergalsh then relentlessly pursues Allen... Then spring arrives. Allen faces Mihai in a rematch.
Two months after Allen arrived at the Granvelle household, Allen was asked by Cecil's brother, Thomas, to hunt a White Deer, a magical beast. Allen easily succeeded in hunting the White Deer, and in recognition of his achievement, he was appointed the family's hunting chief. Time passed, and it was spring. Mihai, the eldest son of the Granvelle family who lived in the academy city, returned home for the holidays.
Allen has become a servant to Cecil, the daughter of the Granvel family. Despite being constantly at Cecil's mercy, he works diligently and builds a good relationship with the Granvel family. On his day off, Allen goes on his long-desired monster hunt. He tests the abilities of his summoned beasts and successfully earns experience points efficiently. On another day, while hunting, Allen discovers an adventurer party being attacked by goblins!
Lord Granvelle, the lord of Crena Village, is visiting and has decided to observe a boar hunt. Allen is appointed as his guide. On the day of the hunt, while Rodan and Crena's father, Gerda, efficiently hunt the boars, Allen, as their guide, entertains the Granvelle family. Lord Granvelle, recognizing their efforts, decides to reward them. What will the reward be?!
Rodan and his companions are ordered by their lord to hunt more monsters, specifically boars, than usual. Allen proposes a plan and agrees to accompany the adults on their hunt as a guide. With several inexperienced hunters participating, there are concerns about injuries. Will Allen's plan succeed?!
Allen engages in a desperate battle with the monstrous beast Albaheron. Using the power of his summoned beasts, Allen corners his enemy and successfully hunts the beast all by himself. After that, Allen continues to hunt Albaheron and gains experience points, achieving his first level-up in his sixth year in this other world. This prompts Allen to decide to tell his parents that he is not an ordinary child.
Every day, Allen diligently continues throwing stones. As a result, although he doesn't level up himself, he acquires new skills and improves various stats, much to his delight. He immediately tries to test his abilities as a summoner by strengthening his summoned beasts and combining them, but... On the same day, his father, Rodan, is brought in in critical condition, injured while hunting monsters!
At the age of five, Allen undergoes the "Appraisal Ceremony," a ritual to assess his talents. The appraisal results suggest he will become a "Summoner," just as he chose before his reincarnation! Meanwhile, Allen's childhood friend, Krena, is revealed to have the talent of a "Sword Saint," and quickly becomes the center of attention. Hearing rumors about her, the Knights' Commander, Zenov, orders Krena to participate in a sword fight with real swords to verify the authenticity of the appraisal results.
Allen is a baby born in a small, nameless frontier village. In his previous life, Allen was a salaryman and hardcore gamer who hated easy games, and now he finds himself living in another world on the highest difficulty level, "Hell Mode." Determined to become the strongest in this challenging setting, Allen begins training despite his young age. As a "Summoner," a mysterious profession, he attempts to acquire skills and level up...
