Esther, a guardian of the Earth, awakens after centuries of slumber to a world transformed. The energy of the planet, once in sync, feels fractured and wrong, making him to embark on a journey to uncover the source of this imbalance.  

Lazy but impossibly sharp, handsome, and undeniably powerful, Esther is an immortal being who has always existed beyond the concerns of mortal life.
On his journey, he meets Hina, an ambitious and fiery woman determined to become the next queen of her country, a goal that intrigues Esther and pulls him into the complexities of human ambition, politics, and relationships.

Along the way, Esther will meet multiple characters who will teach him lessons about life, love, and the human spirit—things he had long ignored in his centuries of existence.

A story of self-discovery, growth, and breathtaking action, *The Descendant of Sloth* is a fantastical tale that explores what it means to truly live.

The auditorium echoed with the sharp *clang* of metal on metal as my dagger slammed into Ham's chopper-like sword.

Sparks flew, lighting up the dark for a split second, and I shoved hard, pushing him back. His boots scraped the concrete, but he dug in, planting his legs firm to stop his slide. His teeth flashed in a gritted smirk, his yellow eyes glowing brighter.

"Hehehehe… good one, kid!" he said, his voice rough and excited, like he was having the time of his life. "Didn't expect that kind of strength from a skinny punk like you!"

I sucked in a quick breath—*ahm!*—and spun into a kick, aiming for his head. Even in the pitch black, he saw it coming.

He ducked low, fast as a snake, chuckling under his breath. "Too slow!" he taunted, swinging one of his massive swords up from below. The blade hummed with yellow aura, slicing through the air toward me.
