What is a monster? Humans normally define monsters as fear inducing, bloodthirsty creatures bent on destruction. But to Noah? Monsters were the humans who despised him without justifications, who taught him to loathe himself just for being human.

Life was hell, a hell that was surrounded by “monsters”. Until one day, the world changed. Humans were suddenly graced by a Divine voice, one that warned of their extinction, but also promised them power. They were bestowed with a system, a system to aid their fight for survival, to survive against monsters.

And when humanity was given that chance to survive, Noah chose to walk a path of a tamer, to befriend the very monsters that were threatening the humans' extinction. 

As he tamed the monsters, learned from them, bonded with them, shedding the last remnants of what it was to be human. Noah began to wonder, is it wrong to be considered a monster?





Feedback is definitely appreciated, good or bad, let's make the story good together.

I would like to note that the main character isn’t completely ruthless, he's more chaotically neutral. There’s a lot of good stories out there with ruthless, bloodthirsty, cold hearted main characters so if that’s what your interest in then I’m sorry to disappoint you.

Becoming a Monster

Pandora's roots were different from before. They were stronger, faster, more durable.

More importantly, she was no longer bound by the spiritual rules bestowed upon her, rules granted by dryads that once prevented her from absorbing the life essence of living creatures.

The beast-like bees fought back fervently. Their limbs were being tethered by multiple roots. They thrashed, roaring as they tried to pull free.

Roots were broken apart, clawed and torn through with the creature's jaws. Their size and strength were too much for an individual root.

However, for each root destroyed, five more took their place.

Their leader saw this, even as it was fighting for its own escape. It fared a lot better than the others as it quickly learned from their mistakes. It avoided every root that it could, whether it was an illusion or a real one, it treated them all the same.
