In a world full of wonders and monsters, a human kingdom took it upon themselves to brave the stars. Dominating their home planet, the nascent space kingdom stretched their limbs in every direction, inevitably biting off more than they could chew. The endless tide descended like the herald of the end, a never-ending ocean of vile monsters. The Empyrean Kingdom struggled with all its might, persisting and surviving. Eventually, they crumbled, putting their last hopes on carrying the remnants far away.  A group of volunteers moved away from the rest, directly toward the heart of the danger. To Monarch. A planet impossibly vast and dangerous, housing lowly monsters and unimaginable apex predators alike. A cauldron of life and death. A miracle given form. Centuries later, the humans of Monarch have finally found a balance. Towering walls to protect them from never-ending hordes of monsters and strong combatants to secure their surroundings, stability did not seem like the daunting prospect it once was. In a frontier city, an orphan met an early grave after a series of unfortunate events, only to open his eyes again. Lev awoke to a world of myths, crawling with danger and shrouded in mystery. Endlessly fascinated by the new world he found himself in, the desire for exploration burned ceaselessly in his heart. Armed with lethal barriers and surrounded by reliable friends, he won't stop till no stone is left unturned. All the better if he could help humanity along the way. But Monarch was cold and unforgiving, every step reminding him of the sheer impossibility of the task, and that monsters do not take kindly to finding humans in their mix.The first few chapters are fast-paced to serve as a small introduction arc
