Blurb: 10 years ago, after “the Gate” that connected the real world with the monster world opened, some of the ordinary, everyday people received the power to hunt monsters within the Gate. They are known as "Hunters". However, not all Hunters are powerful. My name is Sung Jin-Woo, an E-rank Hunter. I'm someone who has to risk his life in the lowliest of dungeons, the "World's Weakest". Having no skills whatsoever to display, I barely earned the required money by fighting in low-leveled dungeons… at least until I found a hidden dungeon with the hardest difficulty within the D-rank dungeons! In the end, as I was accepting death, I suddenly received a strange power, a quest log that only I could see, a secret to leveling up that only I know about! If I trained in accordance with my quests and hunted monsters, my level would rise. Changing from the weakest Hunter to the strongest S-rank Hunter!

Review: I absolutely devoured this webtoon! The illustrations are fucking amazing, and the scroll-down format is utilised so incredibly well. The conversion to webtoon format also covered for a-lot of the English, and the translations are great compared to the light-novel. The story is the epitome of a progression fantasy, and it leans completely into following the rise of the main character. Mandatory Warning: This review is only up to the end of Volume 2. You can consider the ending of this point somewhat self-contained however.
