Synopsis: Among the class transported to another world, Nagumo Hajime is an ordinary male student who didn't have ambition nor aspiration in life, and thus called "Incompetent" by his classmates.
The class was summoned to become heroes and save a country from destruction. Students of the class were blessed with cheat specifications and cool job class, however, it was not the case with Hajime, with his profession as a "Synergist," and his very mediocre stats.
"Synergist," to put it in another word, was just artisan class. Being the weakest, he then falls to the depth of the abyss when he and his classmates were exploring a dungeon. What did he find in the depth of the abyss, and can he survive?

Hajime Nagumo (南雲 ハジメ)
Hajime was a complete otaku and always came to class with a sleepy expression. He was always bullied and was disliked by both of his male and female classmates for being close to their idol-like classmate Kaori. After wishing for his annoying classmates to be summoned to another world, the next thing he saw was they were on top of a pillar like structure in another world to become heroes.
He obtained the job of "Synergist" and continued to be bullied due to also being weak in this new world. He eventually fell into an abyss due to being hit by a classmate's fireball where he survived though a hell-like environment to become the powerful man he is today.
Hajime at the beginning of the story is said to have black hair and also has a slim body. He also had a kind face and attitude. Spoiler: But after falling in the abyss and eating a wolf-like monster, his body began to violently degenerate. When he drunk the sacred water, it made his body heal by destroying his bones and muscles then healing over and over again until he got a very muscular body due to overcompensation.
Due to the stress of breaking and healing, his hair turned white, a victim of the Marie Antoinette syndrome. His eyes also turned red and his body gained tattoo-like red lines which is the sign of him becoming a demonic monster similar to the monsters he ate that also possessed red lines along their bodies.
His personality was at first kind though he was considered incompetent. But after falling in the abyss, he became cruel and would kill any person who wants to cause him misfortune. He would also smile in front of danger which made Shia call him a new species of monster called "Predator." He may be cruel but he cares for his comrades.
Yue (ユエ)
Yue is a vampire who was imprisoned in the abyss. She was betrayed by her uncle and peers because of her monstrous magic and regeneration that made her nearly immortal.
With a fateful encounter, Yue met Hajime in a sealed room in the abyss. After being rescued, Yue was the person who suppressed Hajime's madness before he became a monster and she soon became Hajime's "special" person after what transpired in the Abyss.
Her appearance was described to be like the highest grade bisque doll with blonde hair and crimson eyes. She is 323 years old despite her small physique because she is a Vampire Princess. Her name 'Yue' isn't her real name and was only given by Hajime so that she could leave her dark past and move on.
Kaori Shirasaki (白崎香織)
Kaori is one the most caring personalities in the series. She is a classmate of Hajime's back in their original world. She admires Hajime for his "strong" personalty and is the only classmate who pays attention to Hajime's existence in class even if she is popular in their school.
When summoned to another world, she receives the "Healer" job.
P.S. I left out two main characters for time being 'cause they are mentioned with the novel but not with the manga.

Side notes: I think this manga should also be read in its original novel form if possible. Manga and novel aren't the same thing and making manga one has to make some changes to the original story. This maybe the reason of divided scoring by the readers. I'm still reading this as a manga 'cause the genre isn't my most liked type of reading and I'm kinda sure that this manga probably will end up being also an anime at some point of the time. Just checking what kind of story this is.^-^b
Art is pretty good and charas lil stereotypical but there is still some action and character growing up so it's interesting if not fun fun to read when it gets going.^-^
