## History

When Lee Hoyeol was in his second year of middle school, he created a character in the popular game, Arcana. He considered this character as his alternate persona and named him Granfel Claudi Arpeus Romeo. He created a detailed backstory and listed the talents and abilities his characters possessed.

He was able to level up this character up to level 55. Unfortunately, he was not able to continue playing. The cost of buying a virtual reality login machine was tens of millions of won, which was something their family could not afford due to the collapse of their father's business. He did not get to play the game even for a whole year, so his level and stats were horrible.

## Plot

### Gnolls' Cellar

Lee Hoyeol awakened his power a bit later than most Players. He realized that there was a vast difference in his original personality from his current personality. Everything he wanted to say came out differently. Thus, Hoyeol deemed it necessary to quit his job and become a fulltime Player.

He researched more about Arcana and Demon Hunters and found that there was little to no information about his player class. He found out that all Demon Hunter NPCs in the town of Akshan were killed with no survivors. He no longer had NPCs to get quests from or teach him skills.

Later, he found out that in the recent reality update that new demons were added and that player casualties were on the rise. He wondered why Demon Hunters hadn't taken care of the demons or if it's because he was the only Demon Hunter left in the world.

He feared that he would have to lead the charge against the demons, however, his Granfel persona was determined to uphold his pride as a Demon Hunter and send all the demons back to hell.

The following day, Hoyeol joined a party to explore the Gnolls' Cellar rift. There he met his party members: Nam Cheolmin (party leader), Seo Jeongyeon, Choi Jeonghoon, and Han Seongwook. When they entered the rift, they noticed that there weren't many Gnolls around, despite the name of the rift. Hoyeol felt that there was something off.

A little while later, they are attached by the Gnolls. While his party members charged in, Hoyeol stayed at the back since he thought that he wouldn't be of much help due to his Player Class. From the back, he noticed that the party's strategy wasn't very effective, nor was it efficient.

When they were ambushed by Gnolls, he stepped up as the leader when Cheolmin refused to help combat the horde. He gave instructions to his party members, and they ultimately wiped out the horde with Jeongyeon's Fire Arrow spell. Jeonghoon started to chastise Cheolmin for simply staying in the sidelines. When Cheolmin started laughing, Hoyeol's **Natural Enemy** skill activated, which made him realize that Cheolmin was actually possessed by a demon.

Cheolmin, who was now a demon, used his **Hysteria** skill and inflicting the abnormal status, **Fear** onto the party except for Hoyeol. With the use of his Silver Dagger, Hoyeol performs his **Exorcism Ritual** skill on the possessed Cheolmin. This kills the Imp without harming the host.

When Hoyeol had gotten back home, he found that he leveled up to Lvl. 67 after killing the Imp. He was tired but his personality as Granfel did not allow him to sleep as he had an overwhelming urge to clean and cook. This was when he realized that every detail he created about Granfel was applied in real life, and not just his level and his Player class. Among the personalities and abilities he gave Granfel were: he was incredibly intelligent, had innate magical talent, and had high physical potential. He tested his theory and watched videos of magical spells and confirmed that he could see and easily understand the principles of the spells. With that, he allocated his stats according to his abilities.

### Count Oscura Rifts

Just before he was able to sleep, a system notification for a Class Quest popped up. Hoyeol began to research all about class quests and through this, he confirmed that he was indeed the last Demon Hunter in the world.
