In a world where science and magic bleed together into a nightmare of survival, appearance is the ultimate deception.
Zeraran looks like a nightmare incarnate. Standing tall with a massive, muscular frame, dark-skinned and possessing a gaze that screams "cold-blooded killer," he is the image of a high-level villain. But behind the defined chest muscles and the murderous stare lies the heart of a professional coward.
Transported by a mysterious shadow demon to a wild, unforgiving dimension known as the Constant, Zeraran is forced into a game of survival he never asked for. While the world expects him to be the apex predator, Zeraran's only real goal is to find a hole to hide in.
To stay alive, he must maintain his "villainous" facade to intimidate the bizarre creatures of the wilderness-all while screaming internally. In a land where hunger is a constant threat and the darkness itself has teeth, can a man who is afraid of his own shadow survive by pretending to be the very monster everyone fears?
"I'm not the hunter. I'm just the biggest bait in the woods."
