ZZZ: A Hunter's District Zero!

As a Hunter who had just conquered the Forbidden Land, Andrew accidentally travels to a city called New Eridu during a routine Rathian hunt. This occurs seven years after the fall of the old capital and four years before the main storyline begins. The yet-to-be-renowned legendary Proxies, the Phaethon siblings, have not yet made their mark. A not-yet-fully-developed Nicole is single-handedly managing the newly established Cunning Hares. Zhu Yuan is just a rising star in the Public Security Bureau, diligently following her senior, Qingyi. Hoshimi Miyabi, all alone in Hollow Special Operations Section 6, is agonizing over how to write mission reports and find excuses to skip regular meetings. Everything has yet to take off; everything is still waiting to begin. The plan was to punch Hollows, kick Ethereals, and use the scavenged materials to forge awesome new gear! In theory, it should have been a joyous journey of exploring new equipment, but... Years later, Andrew—the legendary agent partnered with the legendary Proxy Phaethon, the leader of the Silver Army, the man behind the master of the outer ring, the fifth of the four heavenly kings of Hollow Special Operations Section 6, and the creator of the Hunter series of equipment, among a host of other titles—clenches his fists as he looks at the girls before him.
