Out of countless Souls, ten were chosen to be reborn as Monsters into the Higher World. A World much different than ours, filled with Demons, Devils, and Mythical Creatures. Ten Chosen Souls, Ten Chosen Candidates. For what they are Candidates, remains a mystery. "Weaklings shouldn't worry about such things." Indeed, only the strong can survive, which is why, for ten Candidates, ten Dungeons were built. Raise your strength, get used to how things operate in a World of Monsters, and perhaps you, then, will be worthy of the answers you seek. One of those Candidates had been given, in his previous life, the name Mark. But such a name doesn't mean much. After all, he is, in this Higher World, better known by his Titles. The Devourer & The Evolving Monster. -------------------------------- More info in the pinned review below!
[The First Candidate to make it out wasn't you in the end.]
"BWAHA! Really? You mean someone got to the end before me?" A beefy man asked.
It wasn't clear whether he was one or not, but he looked like one at least.
Bald, tall, and muscular.
"These guys should be the last between me and the Final Guardian, right?"
[Yes, they are.]
"Good."
The Weapon Master stepped forward.
Greed and Gluttony.

[I can't believe this.]
"What is it?"
[I'm so, so sorry.]
"What? Whyyy?"
[I failed you.]
[You're my Candidate and I completely failed you.]
"How so? Come on, explain. You're stressing me out!"
[Someone else left their Dungeon first.]
[I didn't advise you well enough.]
"Oh... That's it? Don't do that to me!"
[I'm sorry.]
[My Pride as a General has been tainted permanently.]
"You're being sooo dramatic."
[I failed you.]
