After humanity continuously polluted the world with waste, a monstrous being known as a “Corrupter” was born. As these creatures spread and eroded the world, humanity was pushed to the brink of extinction. The strongest agent, Jin Shidō, finally obtained the power to save the world through dangerous human experimentation. However, it was already too late—99% of humanity had already perished. Entrusting hope to the future, Jin entered a long slumber. —And then, 100 million years later. On a newly reborn Earth, Jin awakens and smiles. “…I knew it. It was right to believe in the possibilities of the future.”

In a world where humanity battles monsters with powerful weapons called Relics, Hinata Asahi is the ultimate underdog at Valkyria Academy, a school for training warriors. Mocked for his relic, a gimmicky suit that looks like a comic book costume, and bullied by classmates, no one knows it holds a secret. The more he is pushed down, the stronger it becomes. Driven by his father’s legacy, Hinata forges new friendships and pushes past every obstacle. With unwavering determination, can he rise to become one of the academy’s strongest?

In this world, the concept of levels exist. Other than those who live off defeating monsters, most people are only around Level 1 to 5. What's more, not just anyone can go out to hunt monsters; it's heavily influenced by one's role appointed by God. There are eight such eligible roles: warriors, fighters, clerics, magicians, rogues, merchants, hunters, and sorcerers. Those blessed with extraordinary power are divided into three types: royalty, heroes, and sages. But for the majority of the population, they have no such powers and live by farming or running shops. Towns are developed by those with the weakest role: villagers. For the powerless villagers going out to hunt monsters is equivalent to committing suicide. But one day, a certain two-year-old child given the role of villager notices something: once you defeat a monster... you can earn great wealth.
