Dean Faust was many things. A disgraced MMA fighter. A lifelong orphan. A man who somehow managed to die slipping on his dog's pee.

Imagine dying to Pee-kun. Not exactly the origin story of legends.

But when he wakes up in the body of Dean Gray, the only son of a declining blacksmith family. He finds himself in a world where humanity clings to survival inside a single fortress city, surrounded by monsters that want them dead. 

In this world, your summon is everything. Your summon determines your rank, your worth, your future, and whether the girl in your bed tomorrow morning is a vampire noble or a werewolf pack leader. 

So when Dean's third and final summoning attempt produces a small rainbow slime that fucka with everything. No one knows whether to laugh or run.

Then the world’s Authority came for his balls and Dean knew that whatever this slime is, the world has no classification for it.

Then the system changed the game.

Ding!
[ Congrats, Host has unlocked the body of the sage.]
[Host has unlocked the Hermit's eyes]
[Host has unlocked the Tools of the Sage]

This same system grants him skills, tracks his growth, and rewards him for everything from fights on and off the battlefield.

Now Dean has to navigate a world with so many secrets, a family he never knew he needed, and women who should be enemies but can't seem to stay away.

That, added to a slime that can copy, evolve, adapt, and permanently absorb any ability, shape or form it encounters.

The world has no idea what that means yet. Neither does Dean.

But they're all about to find out and in a city where power determines everything down to who shares your bed.

Dean is about to re-shape the landscape of power in this new world. And the challenge is whether he would destroy this world or help it become what it was meant to be.

Though she had accepted to visit the library or better still insisted to.


Dean was still skeptical about the whole thing. She was looking hot. Speaking more with ease but she was still not herself.


'Was this all to impress me?' Dean thought. 


The thoughts troubled him but even those troubles paled in comparison to when she bent over the desk, her ass glaring at him like twin moons while she picked up her backpack.


Dean gulped slowly. Teenage hormones kicking in like a lightning round. Something like this, he would expect from Ymir… Not Astrea. Not when she was looking like that.


And just when Dean thought his problems couldn't compound further. He caught AndreTruman approaching from the corner of his eye.


Dean turned and squared his shoulders. He didn't even look at the boy that once called himself his fan.


After all, he was Astrea's new shadow now. He wouldn't be coming for him.
