Probably one of the original edgy Isekai manga, If you ever wonder how Isekai manga with betrayed MC set forth on the quest of revenge, you can look in Dungeon Seeker. Dungeon Seeker might not be particularly highly rated Isekai manga, but it is a relatively self contained series.
Dungeon Seeker is a story of a highschool kid who transported into fantasy world along with his bullies and a female classmate. Ending up in another world. the protagonist fate remains pretty much the same with the previous world being bottom of food chain as he does not possess any special power. However his fate changed drastically when his bully and female classmate decide to betray him and plunged him to a hellish dungeon with supposedly low chance of survival. But the main protagonist survived somehow and gain ungodly skill and sets forth on quest for revenge and find a way to return his world.
What makes Dungeon Seeker stood apart is that the main protagonist can still befriend some allies instead of going full edge and he never really settle revenge on his betrayers as most of them inevitably self destruct being bad people of all. He only gets to confront her former female classmate who become a monstrosity herself while retain her human appearance and went no-nonsense route with her. Overall Dungeon Seeker is not the most flashy Isekai but it is a short fun while it lasted with decent ending. Thus you can make this series serve as litmus paper for any revenge Isekai you look at.
