Synopsis

Hidden Dungeons are a place of legends where rare treasures and items are concealed. Noir, the third son of a minor noble family who acquires an exceptional skill that provides him great knowledge but gives him painful headaches, received a job offer that just got canceled on the first day. He hears from his childhood friend Emma who studied that letting him kiss her makes the skill less stressful for him. Noir was lucky enough to find a dungeon and uncovers a legendary adventurer Olivia Servant, who has been trapped in the labyrinth for centuries, and she gives him three powerful skills, which Noir makes use of to improve his levels and enrolls at Hero Academy to improve his ranks. On the other hand, to accumulate his Life Points he mainly has to do "exciting things" with alluring members of the opposite sex.
