[[caption-width-right:350:Toru and the Mangyu Brigade out for a stroll.]]After losing his girlfriend to a brave hero, Toru is expelled from his S-Rank party. With a feeling of sadness and pain in his heart, he defeats a demon he meets outside the city, and his ability [to save experience] is broken! Toru becomes level 300 in the blink of an eye! With this power that far surpasses that of heroes, there is nothing that can stop him. Kaede, a s*ave he met on his journey, forms a group called the "Mangyu Brigade", and easily completes dungeons, acquires the legendary sacred weapons, and thanks to his skills, his friends level up easily! He rescued a countess who was attacked by bandits on the road, and befriended a legendary beast. Toru's journey continues at a leisurely pace, as he repeatedly encounters various people along the way, while his former party of heroes are deprived of opportunities to play an active role and fall into decline. This is the beginning of the life of a 300 level warrior!

* MissedHimByThatMuch: For a long, long time, Sain's party tries to win fame, glory, and riches by going to dungeons, ruins, monster stampedes, etc., only to learn that someone got there ahead of them and already either cleaned the place out or resolved the issue. Sain takes it as a HumiliationConga and becomes increasingly unstable, until he's sent by his royal backer to go and enslave some elves for him, and when the elves, now boosted by Toru sent him packing, he finally snaps ''and kills the hedonistic king.''
