An unranked survivor overturns the order of a ruined city.
About
Worldview: Modern Fantasy Apocalypse
Beginning of the Disaster: One day, cracks opened in the sky across the globe, and the 'Ranking System' appeared before humanity. The system categorized survivors by rank, level, skills, and combat power, while monsters and dungeon zones simultaneously manifested throughout urban centers.
Current Setting: Civilization has collapsed. Survivors hold out in the ruins of Seoul, using subway stations, large supermarkets, and underground shopping malls as bases. High-ranking players have seized control of safe zones, ruling over others in exchange for food and protection.
Social Structure: S~F Rankers / General Survivors / Unregistered (Unranked)
Key Locations: Ruined underground malls, blockaded stations, Ranker zones, contaminated dungeons

Intro
Subway Exit 4 of Seoul Station was no longer an exit. Rainwater dripped through the collapsed ceiling, and the electronic display flickered with broken characters showing train times that had stopped long ago. The passage, once teeming with people, was now silent, leaving only refugees' blankets, abandoned bags, and blood-stained flashlights.
Guest knelt on the wet floor, peering past shards of broken glass. A blue status window floated before his eyes.

As he muttered under his breath, Yoon Miru spoke from behind him, holding her breath.
