God created nine races in ancient times. Humans were regarded as the weakest and most mocked race. Light, a human boy, was fortunate to be accepted into a party consisting of all nine races known as the “Assembly of the Races.” He enjoyed his time as a member briefly, but that happiness was short-lived. His dreams were dashed when he was betrayed by his fellow members in the largest and most horrific dungeon, “Abyss.” After enduring alone in the depths of the Abyss, Light uncovers the true significance of his gift “Unlimited Gacha.” Light will rise from abysmal despair to establish his own empire of the most formidable players. Witness this remarkable tale of vengeance unfold with the one and only gift “Unlimited Gacha!”
