Cliche. Another monster progression story. That was probably what you thought when you read the title of my story. And, I can't lie, for the most part, it probably is. But, what else am I supposed to do when I've been thrusted into a world that could kill me in an instant? There's nothing to do but to progress, to devour and evolve. You would do the same too. Such is the basis of a monster. Such is the right of any living being. So that's what I did. I ate, I killed and I hoarded anything I could get my big limbs on. Friendship, allies and love? There used to be a little god calling himself "Heaven's Equal" who spouted of such things, before I ate him. The world went pretty quiet after that. Follow my story. Read for yourself how I evolved from a little monster in a lake I thought was the ocean, all the way into the Titan Of Destruction. What To Expect: - A relatively quick progression story - Ruthless, I mean - Fang Yuag levels - of ruthless protagonist. - A system? that grows stronger along with the protagonist - Big Monsters Duking It Out, with minimal humans/beastmen/elves, etc. . .focus. Basically, monsterverse without annoying ass humans ruining the show. - Did I mention that the protagonist was pretty evil?
Interlude: The Council Of Kings
The grand halls of Zephyrion, the floating citadel of the angels, were radiant, the light filtering through the celestial marble casting soft, ethereal shadows across the room. Statues of the Old Gods stood vigilant along the walls, silent reminders of an ancient order. Today, the five leaders of the world's great races gathered under the guise of unity, though none among them felt kinship. The Council of Kings, a temporary alliance forged in times of crisis, was nothing more than a brittle truce, often stained with old grudges and hidden agendas.
This was one such time.
It had been called only in times of great crisis, and now, the shifting of the world's balance demanded their attention once more.
