Apocalypse King: The Return of Lucian - Chapter 24: The Conquest Begins

Cliche. Another monster progression story. That was probably what you thought when you read the title of my story.

There's nothing to do but to progress, to devour and evolve. You would do the same too.Such is the basis of a monster.Such is the right of any living being.So that's what I did. I ate, I killed and I hoarded anything I could get my big limbs on. Friendship, allies and love? There used to be a little god calling himself “Heaven's Equal” who spouted of such things, before I ate him. The world went pretty quiet after that.Follow my story.

Basically, monsterverse without annoying ass humans ruining the show.- Did I mention that the protagonist was pretty evil?
