Forty years ago portals opened all around the world, leading to dungeons with dangerous monsters inside, monsters that can escape into the real world and do incredible damage. At the same time, people began manifesting spirits that allowed them to fight back.
Markus Red just manifested his spirit and it's a weak one, the weakest one there is. But he squeezes into the position of Adventurer and is sent to Ixtham Academy, where he'll learn to fight those monsters and destroy the dungeons invading New York City.
He is on the lowest rung, but he soon finds an ally in Dr. Barrimore, an eccentric scientist with views that no one else seems to take seriously. Together the two of them work on a project that will change everything Markus is. But will surviving at the bottom give him the power and courage he'll need to make it to the top?
