Sadanari Utsugi was once nothing more than an E-rank provisional hunter, a forgotten boy sent into the deadly Mujin Depth with a party that never should have survived. When the dungeon collapsed, the world was told he panicked, abandoned his team, and died like a coward. That was the official record. Twenty years later, a dead gate opens beneath T okyo , and Sadanari walks out alive. The Hunter Association cannot rank him. The public system fails to measure him. The fake S-rank hero who built his fame on Sadanari’s stolen record begins to panic. And Miharu Shizume, the only woman who spent two decades fighting to prove his innocence, finally sees the dead man return. But Sadanari did not only survive the dungeon. He came back carrying the Abyssal Record System, a power tied to the oldest gates, erased witnesses, stolen hunter records, and a secret hidden beyond the First Gate. As every false record begins to collapse, Sadanari discovers that his betrayal was only the surface. Beneath the Hunter Association, beneath the global gate system, and beyond the Unreturned Archive lies a greater enemy that even the Archive itself fears. Now the dead E-rank must break every record, expose every stolen name, rescue the mother who hid him from the world, and face the truth behind what the Archive calls him: The door.

Renji Takamori was born into a powerful noble family, but to them, he was nothing more than a useless spare son. After being framed by his arrogant brother, rejected by his father, and abandoned by his fiancée, Renji is thrown into Sungrave Lot Seven — a deadly desert where exiles are sent when nobles want them erased without dirtying their own hands. With no water, no shelter, and no allies, Renji should have died under the desert sun. Instead, his hidden Frontier Sovereign System finally awakens. What begins as a single survival package soon becomes something impossible: clean water, solar panels, farms, houses, walls, clinics, trade routes, automatic defenses, and an entire oasis settlement called Sunhaven. The dead land his family gave him as punishment slowly turns into a powerful frontier city that merchants, mages, soldiers, nobles, and kingdoms can no longer ignore. Now the family that threw him away wants control of what he built. His former fiancée begins to regret walking away. His enemies try to sabotage his rise. But Renji is no longer the weak noble they abandoned. In the desert where he was supposed to die, he starts building a kingdom.
