In this world people are granted Jobs by the Goddess of Light and Skills by the Goddess of Darkness ranked as either Low Common, High Common or Rare. Ein has the job Appraiser and his skill is Low Common, so the High Common adventurers Zoid and Jolene see no issue casually abusing him. In the labyrinth they find a valuable dead Hellhound which Ein harvests, but as they find more dead Hellhounds Ein starts to worry what killed them. Zoid and Jolene are blinded by greed until they end up surrounded by the stronger Hellhound pack that killed the others. Caring only about themselves they sacrifice Ein. With no choice except be eaten or commit suicide Ein jumps from a nearby cliff, regretting that he never accomplished anything. He awakens uninjured among the roots of a World Tree, legendary sources of mana that disappeared centuries ago. Unseen, a young woman watches him leave to explore the area. Immediately he encounters S rank monsters that begin tearing him apart, until a mysterious person saves him. Awakening back at the tree with his injuries healed Ein meets the young woman.

| ShortSummary = Ein learns the woman is Yuri, the World Tree Spirit. Ursula, her Guardian and adopted mother, explains they had to replace his damaged eye with part of the World Tree, a Spirit Eye.

As they cannot leave Yuri’s physical tree for long Ursula decides to train Ein until he can escape the labyrinth by himself. Ein learns his Spirit Eye has made Appraisal more powerful and given him new skills. Using Appraisal Ein learns to dodge and attack by anticipating an opponents moves. Ursula gives him a sword made from Yuri’s tree and he defeats multiple S rank monsters. His new eye also lets him learn opponents powers so he gains increased speed and strength. By appraising Ursula he also learns magic and her ability Discard Incantation, which lets him use magic without reciting spells. After a month Ursula lets him get revenge on the monster that took his eye, an S rank Death Bear.

| ShortSummary = Yuri's sister Pina refuses to see them until they have defeated the dungeon she built herself. Secretly, it is impossible to die in her dungeon as victims are simply teleported outside, so she plans to humiliate Ein in front of Yuri. However, Ein avoids all Pina's traps and defeats her monsters. Zoid learns Jolene blamed him for everything and joined a new party with her reputation intact. To regain his reputation he desperately decides to defeat a monster alone, which coincidentally is in Pina's dungeon. Ein saves him and has him sent outside. Ein confronts the dungeon boss, a giant tortoise. However, he exposes this as an illusion and finds the tortoise is a tiny baby, the offspring of Black Tortoise, one of the Four Holy Beasts of Creation. As it is a baby he convinces Pina exposing the illusion counts as "defeating it." Yuri is thrilled to see Pina again. The baby tortoise transforms into Kurohime, Pina's World Tree Guardian. Kurohime adds Pina's spirit core and her Philosopher Stone to Ein's eye so they can travel with him too, which also levels up his eye again. Ein hopes they can find Yuri's remaining sisters soon.

| ShortSummary = Jasper helps Ein sell his loot, since no one would believe he killed monsters without Jasper's endorsement. This draws attention from Guild Master Meegan.

Meegan asks Ein to defeat Behemoth, an SS Class dragon created by Demon Lord Miktoran. Ursula locates Behemoth in the desert. As he is immune to magic Ein is forced to rely only on his sword and non-magic abilities. Having never been defeated Behemoth underestimates Ein as just another human, until Ein blows his skull apart. Having grown bored of living Behemoth accepts his death and congratulates Ein on a splendid victory. Ein finds himself feeling sorry for Behemoth who was created by Miktoran to only be a murderous monster. For his victory Claudia introduces Ein to her father, the King, who recognises Ein's kind heart and is happy for Ein to marry Claudia one day. He also gifts Ein a pocket watch engraved with the Royal Seal, indicating he may go wherever he pleases with the full authority of the royal family. As Ein's fame spreads Zoid's resentment grows. He is suddenly approached by a spirit who offers to help him achieve his desire, and introduces herself as Echidna.

He awakens depressed that his powers were given to him by his friends, but at heart he is still a Low Common. Echidna offers Zoid his own Spirit Eye and he goes on a rampage, starting with murdering Jolene. Echidna directs him to kill Yuri and Pina so Ein will lose his powers. Ein, Ursula and Kurohime arrive just in time. Ein faces Zoid alone but struggles to reconcile his desire not to kill Zoid with his desire to get revenge for Zoid's abuse. Zoid claims deep down Ein is as evil as he is. Yuri and the others help Ein realise he is strong even on his own. This realisation turns Ein into a Spirit Guardian, which had been Ursula's plan all along. Ein easily destroys his Spirit Eye, returning Zoid to normal. Zoid is furious Ein beat him again, but after seeing how much Ein has changed he decides to become a better man himself and allows himself to be arrested. Ein is curious who gave Zoid a Spirit Eye, and why. Echidna removes Zoid's memory of her and retrieves the recording she made of Ein's combat capabilities.

In Rayshik the villagers prepare to sacrifice a young girl named Mia to the SS Rank dragon Hydra, but Mia's father changes his mind. Ein arrives just in time, annihilates Hydra and steals his skill to create poisons and medicines. Ein is surprised the villagers are more scared of Rayshik's Lord Nigun than they were of Hydra. Ein meets Nigun who panics when Ein reveals he already killed Hydra. Nigun reveals he made a deal with Hydra to sacrifice women to him in exchange for keeping monsters away. Ein is furious, but Nigun points out he made a difficult choice to sacrifice a few in order to save hundreds. Ein is unsure which the right decision is. Nigun speaks to Demon Viscount Shadow, Hydra's master, who demands Nigun kill Ein. With Hydra gone monsters destroy Rayshik's farms. Ein restores the destroyed crops and fabricates a stone wall around Rayshik to keep monsters out.

| ShortSummary = Ein destroys the monster army alone, requiring Yuri to heal his exhaustion afterwards. Having watched Ein save their lives twice now, Mia's father rallies the villagers to finally stand up to Nigun. Nigun appears at that moment and accuses Ein of being a demon, tricking the villagers into thinking he cares about them so he can steal Rayshik. Nigun is shocked when the villagers agree Ein should be their Lord, since all Nigun talks about protecting is the land when he should be protecting the people, like his father. In his despair Nigun calls out to Shadow for help. Inside his head Shadow helps him remember that he was a sickly child rejected by the village children in case they got sick. He was also beset by rumours he wasn't his father's legitimate son. Sensing his weakness Shadow became his only friend. Then, when his father grew ill, Shadow tricked Nigun into giving him poison to drink instead of medicine, slowly killing him over several years. Once Nigun became Lord, Shadow began slowly taking over his mind and selling some villagers into slavery in the demon realm without Nigun even knowing. Realising Shadow is actually a demon who tricked him into murdering his own father Nigun goes insane, allowing Shadow to fully possess his body. Shadow introduces himself to Ein as a Demon Viscount, Shadow the Enticer.

Ein is astonished when the spirit of Yuri's sister Kursh appears before them and reveals the tree of their other sister May in the Abysswood is being attacked by demons. She also reveals May's Guardian was killed long ago, so she has been acting as May's Guardian. Ein quickly reaches Abysswodd, a secret above-ground dungeon disguised as a forest. Ein is accosted by Demon Count Hornet the Indestructible, who avoids death by hiding her soul in a single hornet somewhere within a swarm of millions. Ein destroys the swarm and Hornet attempts to flee, but is killed by Ioana for her cowardice. Ein hits Ioana with Drain Level to weaken her, so she attempts to use an unblockable bullet to kill Ein, but he parries it perfectly and cuts off her head. Ioana still lives, so Ein reveals he didn't use Drain Level only once, but hundreds of times, so Ioana is now even weaker than the monsters of the Abysswood. Furious, Ioana teleports her head to safety. Ein locates Kursh at May's tree and discovers May, as the youngest sister, is a toddler in the middle of her afternoon nap.
