Synopsis

In the past, the goddess created nine races. Among them, the weakest and most despised were humans . Light, a young human, believed he had found happiness upon being welcomed by the "Concord of Tribes," a group formed by the nine races. But it was all a fleeting illusion. What awaited him was the cruelest of betrayals, in the depths of the largest and most feared dungeon: the Abyss . At the bottom of this cursed place, Light discovers the true power of his gift: Unlimited Gacha . From despair, he rises to build the most powerful kingdom in history.

Finally, the light novel debuted in April 2020, and soon after received a manga adaptation by Takashi Ohmae in 2021. Furthermore, J-Novel Club publishes Backstabbed in a Backwater Dungeon in English in the United States.
