SSS-Class Soulbound Sovereign
One day, everything on Earth changed. A leveling system was introduced to all humans deemed worthy of becoming hunters. Starting classes were granted, with some receiving rare and special ones. In the end, it all came down to luck.
Arthur Roberts was just a normal nineteen-year-old. During his awakening, he received nothing—no class, no ability to level up. Already an outcast in college because of his antisocial personality, this failure only made things worse.
“Out of our whole class, only eight people didn’t awaken. Of course you had to be one of them, huh, Arthur?” one of his classmates sneered, and the rest burst into laughter.
“No wonder your girlfriend dumped you. Just look at yourself,” another added.
Arthur’s hatred for humanity grew deeper. He had suffered under his alcoholic father, endured the cruelty of his peers all his life, and now the chance to become someone magical had slipped through his fingers.
One day, he climbed the tallest building he could find and screamed at the world. “Why the hell am I so unlucky? Damn it!”
At that moment, a small portal opened behind him at the rooftop. A glowing green stone rolled toward him.

[SSS Soulbound Sovereign]
Arthur discovered that he could level up and grow stronger—but in a completely different way.
He was able to bind himself to specific dungeons, becoming an ally of the monsters within them. Every hunter who died inside those dungeons granted him experience and items. On top of that, Arthur could accept quests from the monsters and even learn their skills. The only side effect was that he inherited small traits from the creatures of whichever dungeon he was bound to.
Soon, he realized something even greater. He could form an army with the monsters of his dungeon and launch attacks against other dungeons, gaining even more experience in the process.
Overnight, Arthur had become humanity’s greatest threat. He had become the Sovereign of all monsters.
