In a world where adventurers are primarily young people due to the physical strain of the profession, Rick, a determined 32-year-old, finds himself grappling with both physical and societal challenges. His journey begins in a desolate wasteland where he is seriously injured during a fight. Despite his dire condition, his mentors emerge from the smoke, showering him with praise for his progress over the past two years of intense training.
