The story takes place in a modern world where dungeons have appeared, other then when a dungeon is dying it appears monsters do not leave, so very little damage to modern life.When the MC turned 18 he decided to become an adventurer (largely to support his little sister since the funds left by their deceased parents were there but not abundant enough for both to go to college/university). He awakened a unique skill and joined a party of arrogant and short sighted idiots with their own unique skills who only look at the skills initial capabilities (it does suck when he first develops the skill, it is a subtle change in the clauses that makes it go from useless to OP) and slander the MC to the point he is a laughing stock and target of mockery by the other adventurers of their level range and area, while still pretending to be his friend to his face (they are obsessed with their image, and looking good, so booting him after a week or 2 is not desirable as it would make them look bad). Spoiler
The arrogance about the strength of their skills ends up being their downfall, as they effectively becomes 1 trick ponies convinced of their power and challenge a foe in an emergency situation they should know not to (after giving their word that they would wait for a stronger party to clear the foe)
[collapse]Only one guild is willing to risk investing in him (which is a risk as developing someone who turns out to be a dud would reflect negatively on the guild) but the MC turns them down. This causes the MC to becomes a Solo adventurer, which greatly slows down his development (adventurers in a party can handle greater challenges, allowing them to level up faster, and also move on to more farmable dungeons earlier/at lower levels while solo adventurers progress slower and since they need to be higher level to venture into a dungeon (I think the dungeons he is in at the start is like lv 50+ in a party, and lv 70+ solo) will take more kills to gain a level, which only gets worse as they go on) A year later, at the start of the story, the MC reaches level 100 and develops the skill to the point it evolves and becomes a work around for one of if not the greatest limitation on an adventurers development, when you clear a dungeon you receive a bonus reward of a set number of levels depending on the dungeon but can not enter any dungeon for a week (which causes a tradeoff between clearing dungeons for the bonus, and farming the dungeons for drops to sell, as well as experience from the monsters since the bonus could be outclassed by farming mobs for a week if the adventurer is in the right level range, the leveling/experience does seem some what somewhat dependent on your relative level to the defeated mob) this supposedly acts as a balancing factor allowing part time adventurers who only delve into the dungeon once a week and work a full time job the rest to somewhat keep up with others, which allows him to greatly speed his development since he can farm the bonuses for completing a dungeon.With this the MC starts to develop towards clearing dungeons faster developing his speed and strength to move through them faster and kill the bosses quicker. So he can farm as many clears in a day as possible. During one of his runs he encounters a party who not knowing that there is a limit on the members in that dungeons boss fight abandons their healer outside the boss room (a major no no since it is the same as killing them) and he lets the healer (who is a girl 1 year younger then the MC, and turns out to be a friend of his sister) join him for the boss fight so she can leave the dungeon with him, and has her report the abandonment while he confronts the rest of the party (who attack him to try cover up their crimes, since they did not see the healer leave to make a report so are not aware there a F-ed either way).All in all, the MC has a busted ability, but for his level is not over powered though he does pick up some strong abilities and equipment, he is just able to develop much faster then others, his former party who were leveling faster then most rose to 2000-2300 range in a year, after his skill evolves the MC surpasses that like 2 months. But the worlds strongest are all over level 100, 000.
