Tetsuya Takahashi was suddenly summoned to another world. However, his invocation was a mistake and after participating in the level review...he has the weakest [level limit], lv.1, the king seeing his limit calls him "defective" and condemns him to death! Despite being summoned against his will. Tetsuya is thrown into the valley of the monsters. There he was attacked and brought to the brink of death, and when he used his unique skill [Absorb Corpse], he gained the skills that the corpse possessed! "...Let's do it! Survive in this world, become strong and take revenge on those who were summoned. The "level 1" man who was called "defective" and "weak"... now begins the ascent to be the strongest!
While attempting to rescue a girl from some delinquents all six were summoned to the Kingdom of Arbus though Tetsuya and the girl were summoned by mistake. The group was told that many human territories had been destroyed by different races, and that humanity was on the edge of extinction. Though in actuality the King summoned the "heroes" in order to expand Arbus’ territory and conquer all the demi-humans. The 4 delinquents were rearing to go though the girl wanted nothing to do with this and left the kingdom to do her own thing. Tetsuya however gets thrown into the Valley of Death to die because the human king thought that he was useless due to being locked into Level 1 stats. It should be noted that the delinquents have a max level of 100+ which makes them one man armies, while the normal humans have at best around level 30 while some top tier powerful demi-humans are at most level 80's. Needless to say, the 4 basically split up and start conquering.
Personality
After being thrown into the Valley of Death to die for being "defective", because his limiter is level 1, Tetsuya strong desire for revenge. Other than that, he is usually a kind, polite and affectionate man. Before being summoned, he regretted all the wrong choices he made in his life.
"Wanting a chance to fix everything so I can have a decent life."
Chronology
Tetsuya is in a monster infested canyon and is steadily growing stronger by absorbing monster corpses, rescues a cat girl named Lenya from monsters, and meets up with an elf named Mek Samafers. Just before leaving the canyon, Tetsuya runs into a spirit that was watching over him called the "King of the Abyss". He gives Tetsuya a crest that allows him to borrow some of his powers. Some time after leaving the canyon one of the four sets off to conquer the elven kingdom. When the Mek hears about this, she Tetsuya and Lenya set off to defeat him. They ran into destroyed elven villages and Tetsuya vows revenge. The delinquent had yet to arrive at the Elven royal capital and allowing the three to defend the place.
In the fight Tetsuya proved quite strong until the delinquent started using his cheat beating him mercilessly. Cue in the "King of the Abyss" telling Tetsuya that if he allows him to take over the his body, then he save his friends. Tetsuya agrees and the King kills the hero then promptly absorbs him. At this point, the King is happy as hell because he now has a body to inhabit and escape from the boring abyss with. Furthermore, this body has an awesome cheat that allows him to absorb abilities from corpses. Mek sees that the King is evil and uses a royal elven item to disable the crest and bring Tetsuya back to his senses.
After a while, the second delinquent shows up and decides to conquer the commonwealth that the Tetsuya is staying at. He and his team fights against the invading human army. The second delinquent has a cheat that makes him an impenetrable tank (damages are reduced to like 1 damage). Tetsuya compensates by using the cheat he absorbed to slowly grind down his health. After defeating the human army and killing #2, Tetsuya reminded of the Kings power vowed to no longer use Absorb Corpse on humans or demi-humans. Tetsuya goes off and trains a bit and kills some more monsters and absorb them. Only to realize that he can no longer absorb any more skills, because he has hit his limit of absorbing skills. Mek basically says that he needs to go get some expansion pack potions in order to absorb more skill now.
Info: Tetsuya obtained this skill after being summoned. It hasn't reached full potential. It had a limit in status increase. The souls of all collected corpses are inside the user. If it is 100% activated, the user's soul would be eaten by them and that's why the stats obtained are low and the amount of growth it optains.
Description: The user is able to consume any corpse it touches, monster and being, into its body by creating a vortex on the palm of the hand and absorbing the corpse. After assimilation, the user will obtain all the stats the corpse had before dying and sometimes the skills it possessed when it was alive but not all of them. The user can't optain more skills that the user limit and it can't absorb the corpse if the user hasn't made physical contact with the corpse. It has a limitation of how much the health and magic power could be raised but it was removed by the Mark of the Abyss King and it is now 2.5 times more powerful.
