Summary
In the web novel 'Raising the Lowest-Ranked Adventurer, the Heroic Girl – Wasn’t I Just a Substitute Old Man?' by an anonymous Japanese author, readers are transported into a world where an accidental portal to a monster-filled dimension leads to the emergence of 'Awakened Ones' with supernatural abilities. Among them is Koosuke Igami, a 35-year-old middle-aged adventurer on the cusp of retirement after five years of service. With a mix of action, adventure, and fantasy elements, this story follows Igami's journey as he navigates dungeons, guilds, and magical technology in a modern-day setting, all while dealing with a strength-based social hierarchy and developing relationships with younger love interests.

Description

In an experiment to create artificial black holes or white holes for energy generation, things went awry. Instead, it opened a portal to another world, but not a friendly one. It connected to the dwelling places of creatures known as monsters. Amidst this chaos, individuals with supernatural abilities, similar to the monsters, emerged. They were known as “Awakened Ones.” Once awakened, they were obligated to serve for five years.

Koosuke Igami, a 35-year-old middle-aged adventurer of modest Class 3 ranking, had been adventuring for nearly five years. He joined a team of beginner high-class adventurers, but he only had three months left until his five years were up, and he could retire from being an adventurer.
