The anime's first season saw the weakest E-Rank Hunter Sung Jin-Woo acquire the mysterious System that allowed him to become the only Hunter capable of leveling up. The System saw Sung Jin-Woo complete a daily quest, and failing to complete it saw him partake in a penalty.

After he leveled up a bit, Jin-Woo was offered a job-change quest. This quest saw him enter a castle and fight Igris, the Bloodred Knight Commander, and an unending horde of monsters. As a completion reward, he received the title "Shadow Monarch." This title saw him gain the ability to bring the dead back to life as his "shadow army."

Elsewhere, the story saw the S-Rank Hunters make a horrifying discovery about the infamous Jeju Island as its monsters began evolving.
