Synopsis
of Backstabbed in a Backwater Dungeon
When
Light is expelled from the Concord of Tribes, his former comrades instantly
turn against him. Light narrowly escapes this diabolical act of betrayal, only
to find himself in the deepest part of the Abyss, the most dangerous dungeon in
the realm. To avoid being devoured by carnivorous monsters, he uses Unlimited
Gacha, his only magical ability.
But
where before he only produced useless items, this time Mei appears, a beautiful
Level 9999 warrior dressed as a maid. Fast-forwarding three years, Light has
built his own kingdom in this remote dungeon, summoning more beautiful Level
9999 warriors who swear absolute loyalty to him. Now a powerful Level 9999
Overlord, Light plans to ascend to the surface and exact revenge on his
traitors one by one.
