The Monster Exterminator
In a world ruled by humanity's iron fist, all non-human kingdoms, elves, vampires, goblins, dragons and more, are labeled as monsters and exterminated without mercy. Backed by brutal technology and propaganda, the Human Empire sends elite units called Exterminators to wipe out any village that dares resist.
Axel 26 is one of the best.
Clad in his lethal Black Wolf exo-suit and armed with the greatsword Iron Howl, Axel has erased countless lives in the name of peace. He doesn’t question orders. He doesn’t feel guilt. Not anymore.
Until one mission changes everything.
When his squad slaughters a goblin village, Axel stumbles upon a crying child clutching her dead parents and something inside him breaks. For the first time, he disobeys. For the first time, he protects a "monster."
Now branded a traitor, Axel is hunted by his own squad, the very people he trusted most. With the goblin girl in tow, he must journey through the shattered kingdoms he once helped destroy, uncovering lost truths, forbidden love, and the real monsters hiding beneath polished human steel.

Really enjoyed this story. Axel and Kyra’s bond feels genuine, and Vera’s journey adds unexpected depth. The world feels lived-in and unique, especially the way it explores both sides of the conflict. The pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, but overall, it’s a thoughtful and engaging read.
So far I am 5 chapters deep. I enjoyed the novel however, I noticed some challenges in the novel. In terms of writing quality, I noticed a few errors and some sentences that I couldn't make sense of. In terms of story development, some scenes were well-explained, and others weren't detailed enough. Put much effort into describing the characters to us. I noticed just a few of them. Moreover, I couldn't get where the setting was whether it was the village or not. In all, put much effort into those, and also let's know the setting of the novel. Apart from that, I really enjoyed the novel.
