Jinwoo Sung is still leveling up ridiculously fast, but at least the challenges he faces this time are not instantly overwhelmed by his outrageously strong powers and weapons. He takes an E-rank schoolmate of his sister under his wing to dissuade her from the monster hunting life by taking her on an observation trip with a hunter strike team, but of course the supposedly easy mission ends with them all trapped on an ice world fighting for their lives.

A bunch of new characters are introduced as the world-building gets some attention. That can sometime ruin a series with it all devolving into too many talking heads discussing strategy and history (I'm thinking of Attack on Titan, World Trigger, and Arpeggio of Blue Steel), but it helps to break up the otherwise nonstop action here.
