But Rentt has miraculously reawakened... as a skeleton?! Making his way back to civilization is going to be a challenge when he can barely walk, let alone hold a sword. And the good people of Maalt won't take kindly to a monster in their midst.

The craving for human flesh!

Rentt's inhumane tendencies out of control. Having awoken in the Water Moon Dungeon as a Skeleton after being consumed by a dragon, Rentt has finally obtained a body with some flesh on it, all thanks to the phenomenon known as Existential Evolution. When he returns to investigate an uncharted path within the labyrinth, however, a magic circle trap is set off, teleporting Rentt to an unfamiliar place. The room he finds himself in is none other than the deepest part of the dungeon - the boss chamber.

Who will win? A Giant Skeleton powered by the very energies of the labyrinth itself, or a Ghoul with the experience and weapons of an adventurer?

The last time Rentt saw vampire hunter Nive Maris, she warned him that vampires would soon attack the city of Maalt. Rentt begins to prepare for that possibility by collaborating with the adventurer's guild, but Lorraine suggests he first find the source of his divinity-his strongest weapon against the vampires. They decide to visit the shrine in Rentt's hometown of Hathara, where he got his first spark of divinity.

Before they go, Rentt has to gather materials for Alize's new wand. He goes to the NewMoon Dungeon to do so and reaches a mine on the fourth floor. However, once there he encounters something unexpected and legendary-an earth dragon!
