Hajime Naehara

In a world where crests grant powers that decide one’s fate, Prince Heale is born with Cave King—a crest just as obscure and useless as he is. Deemed a disgrace to his family, he’s exiled to a barren, deserted island without a single living thing in sight. Alone and miserable but determined to survive, he reaches for a pickax to expand the cave he takes shelter in—and uncovers the true power of his crest!

It turns out Cave King makes mining and building within caves as easy as breathing. Useless no more! Instead of a life in limbo waiting for rescue, what Heale finds on this island are otherworldly discoveries and life-changing encounters!

Alone, shunned, and powerless—that was how Heale would describe his past self in Sanphales. But in a strange twist of fate, all of that changes after his banishment. The Sheol Reef community continues to grow, packed with slimes, goblins, spiders, a naked guy, and more—each with a unique talent! Together, they develop their once-barren island into a thriving domain in its own right.

Armed with the power of Cave King and the otherworldly minerals he discovers, Heale finds a happy life finally within his grasp. Feasting, building farms, forging bonds—life is looking up for the residents of Sheol Reef. But then, Heale learns that the surrounding ocean currents may bring more than blessings to their shores... Heale must face challenges new and old: defending his idyllic domain and putting his own demons to rest!

Riale’s vision of a leviathan shatters the peaceful life on Sheol Reef. To defend their new home, Heale and his people must prepare for the attack of the mythical beast that once slaughtered the Tiberis tribe. But how can they defeat a creature immune to both weapons and magic? Heale’s gamble depends on digging out yet another miracle from the mining shafts of Sheol.

The entire community comes together for this all-hands-on-deck situation, pouring in every drop of effort and wisdom they have. Finally, the fateful day comes. The leviathan arrives, a towering beast piercing the heavens themselves—and it’s not alone. Will Sheol conquer the invaders, or will everything crumble beneath their might?

The second is a long-anticipated discovery: more ruins, this time equipped with ancient technology. Finally, Heale gets a glimpse of the island’s mysterious past...which might have heavier implications than he ever expected.
