A Monster's Rise Begins...
Justin Mikati was an ordinary man-until the day he died.
Reborn into the shattered world of Vael'ari as a lowly slime, Justin quickly discovers he isn't just any monster. With the power to consume, adapt, and evolve, he refuses to stay weak. After forming an unlikely alliance with the rogue daemon Seraphine, Justin - Kael - begins carving out his place in a world that wants monsters dead.
But survival isn't enough.
With nowhere else to turn, Kael takes refuge in the ruins of an abandoned goblin village. What starts as mere shelter soon becomes something more-a haven for outcasts, monsters, and those cast aside by the so-called civilized world. As word of The Hollow spreads, Kael finds himself not just a survivor-but a ruler.
However, power comes at a price.
Naming his followers forms a powerful soul bond, draining Kael's strength while elevating those who serve him. And with whispers of a rising monster kingdom, enemies begin to gather-warriors seeking battle, zealots demanding extermination, and something far worse lurking in the shadows.
To stand against them, Kael must prove he is more than just a monster.
He must become a king.
In a world where strength is law, can a monster carve his own throne?
A dark fantasy isekai adventure filled with evolution, kingdom-building, and brutal combat. Perfect for fans of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime and Overlord.
