Synopsis of Let This Grieving Soul Retire!
As dungeon-like treasure vaults began to appear across
the country, more and more people signed up as treasure hunters, risking their
lives to obtain the immense riches and ancient relics within. In the imperial
capital of Zebrudia, the most prominent group of hunters is the Banshees: a
group of six childhood friends led by Krai Andrey, who is considered the
strongest of them all due to his wide variety of skills.
However, Krai has no special talents. In fact, his
achievements are due to his friends being outclassed. Krai has repeatedly tried
to leave the group, fearing that his lack of skills would one day cause his
companions' downfall. However, everyone around Krai thinks differently, making
him feel compelled to remain the group's leader.
