When Carl Suis, a fresh zoology graduate, lands an internship with MECCP (Mythical and Endangered Creatures Care and Protection), he expects to work with exotic animals—not be magically whisked into Mythica, a realm brimming with dragons, mermaids, and other magical creatures.

What starts as a dream job quickly spirals into chaos. Feeding creatures is the least of Carl’s worries as he tackles ecosystem meltdowns, interspecies feuds, and cultural clashes straight out of a fantasy fever dream. Forget the myths—these creatures are nothing like the books said.

With Mythica’s fragile world teetering on collapse and MECCP’s future at stake, Carl must rely on his zoological skills, quick thinking, and unexpected allies to save the day. But in this unpredictable land, survival means embracing the wild—and the wildly hilarious—at every turn.

Can Carl protect this magical world, or will his internship be his last adventure?

I walked straight over to Usumgallu, who was sitting by the counter, absorbed in a pile of documents.

The moment he saw me, he adjusted his monocle with an air of quiet importance.

"Owner, I see that you've returned safely," he said, his voice as smooth as ever, but something about the way he said it made me feel like there was more to the story.

I narrowed my eyes, suspicion creeping in. This guy knew something I didn't.

"You seem to know exactly what happened after the knowledge transfer. Care to explain?" I said, exasperated. "Usumga-whatever your name is." His name was a mouthful, but at least I got the first part right.

Usumgallu, without so much as a blink, adjusted his monocle again and sighed. "If it's too difficult for you to say, you may call me Usum."

His tone didn't change. "And yes, I was aware that the transfer process could cause a few... slight complications. Though, I assure you, such occurrences are extremely rare."
