[Underdog's rise to power, welcome to bookmark it!]
Chu Zhihe is the youngest son of the Chu family. He's used to relying on others, whether his dad, his older brother, or his childhood friend. He's useless at everything except whining, and has a terrible reputation among the empire's powerful families.
.
By chance, he enters a world of infinite instances and discovers that he has no one to rely on. The enemies in this endless world are all powerful, with strength through the roof. He can't beat them at all. After narrowly escaping death again and again, he finally manages to defeat the boss, at great cost, and clear the instance.
.
When he gets out, Chu Zhihe looks stunned. “Thanks for asking. That was awesome.”
.
His masochistic streak awakens, and he starts entering the endless world again and again of his own accord, studying how to defeat the bosses. From then on, a legend spreads through the endless world about someone who's terrible at the game but loves playing it...
