Synopsis

Do read my new novel **Chimaera's Conquest**.
It would mean a lot to me if you could read it and give your valuable review. Thanks in advance.

****
The novel follows the story of Arnold, a porter, who accompanies warriors and superhumans inside dangerous dungeons, which are distinguished by their colours. The porters were always mistreated by the modern human civilization and even though their job was riskier than that of warriors and superhumans, their existence was never appreciated nor were they paid well.

No one knows why these dungeons started to appear all over the world. The only thing they know was the dangers that would find their way into the world if they didn't kill the monsters. But only a selected few cared about the calamity because for the rest it was all about earning money and gaining power.

But nothing in this new world is constant and everything keeps changing, and this time the change would find its way towards an ordinary Porter.

After stealing a scroll from the dungeon, he ran off to his home. The scroll gave him powers no one could've imagined to gain. But he wasn't alone. 9 other humans had been granted similar powers... powers of the Gods!

What would Arnold do with his newfound powers? Will he kill the other 8 Paladins and rule over the world which had oppressed him for years? Or will he rise against the Gods and make them repent for their crimes?

Can the strength lent by the Gods be sufficient to deal with them once and for all? Would he be able to defeat his creator? Or will he join the Gods instead?

Too many questions, too little time. The decisions he would make could be the end of humanity Or would an ordinary Porter, become he world's only hope?

Follow me on the journey to the power of this ordinary Porter as he becomes the Savior or the Devil.

*******************

Gold tier award-winning novel of WPC#130.

*******************

Warning:
There might be a few grammatical errors in the early chapters, so if you are a grammar nazI then please proceed with caution.

Also, the MC isn't very bright and will do a lot of stupid things from time to time. So if you like a cool and calculating MC you won't be seeing him like that until later chapters (Chapter 100 or so). I'm telling this to y'all here so you don't start yelling at me in the comments or review. All in all, I've tried to make the MC as realistic as I could.

Any advice is appreciated. Thank you and enjoy reading my creation!

    Update! Thanks to your good wishes, I finally got rid of Covid. Also, thank you for 4 million views. It's the happiest I have been in a while. And I'm back at uploading regular chapters so there's that too. Thank you for bearing with me the support you gave me was overwhelming. I can't believe how many kind wishes I got in that tough time.

    this story is a wonderful rollercoaster of emotions, perfectly written, brilliantly thought out. This novel has no wasted detail, overdrawn out arch or scene, everything is is well blended and every detail world together to make the whole story even better, in some ways the story even beats solo leveling and supreme magus. I'm read up to the latest and all I can say is, if you're just starting this novel or you're about to start , you're in for a treat, because this story will keep you wanting more from beginning to end. Amazing work author!! I hope this gets an anime or at least character designs in form of nfts in the nearest future.

    Itโ€™s a great novel. If you like novels such as, solo leveling, everyone else is a returnee, Seoul stationโ€™s necromancer, or evolution theory of a hunter, youโ€™ll like this one too.

    This... This story is fvcking fantastic. The characters are multi-dimensional, MC has a sensible head on his shoulders. This is one of those few fantasies where the MC feels human. He is not a personification of the smartest people on earth that would always make the best decision in pressured, sensitive and often difficult situations. He is not the personification of the japanese ideal MC who has females falling for him for no real reason left and right all the while being clueless or having a stupid justification for not engaging with them romantically. He is not even a Western Camelot or King Arthur that holds himself to unrealistic moral codes and rises above human failings. No, no. He is a real, imperfect human who would make the same mistakes or have the same quirks as any reader. Being able to accurately depict that in an MC is something unprecedented in fantasy. The world building and pacing are steady, the work feels grounded, the writing is fluid but vivid and there is the right amount of suspense. The only thing stopping me from giving this work 5 stars is that I wish the author would update more. It is an unrealistic wish as they update daily and steadily, but the wait every day kills me.

    I'm guessing the author deletes bad reviews cause this MC is so dumb its intolerable, and if you don't believe me don't worry all you have to do is read 5 chapters in and you will also learn about it.

    The story is decent but the Mc is just stupid. He goes full xianxia or chinese mode. You can enjoy the story if you ignore the occasional chinese outbursts of mc. Good luck

    Nothing in this novel adds up, porter is treated like a slave and has minimal abilities to compete within his chosen profession. Sister is sick so he puts up with the abuse, only to have that taken regardless of prior agreements. The whole distopian setting gets destroyed when the world rights itself with 5 years of the dungeons forming. The financial circumstance appears completely ridiculous from the get go with a book giving A rank skills selling for barely 500 dollars. (Like monetary currency would still hold ANY value at this point.) The world building is constructed by a preschooler, the MC is a punching bag, and the story is below sub par. I have attempted to read this novel twice - 78 chapTers the first time and barely 4 chapters the second, sooooo it only gets worse ๐Ÿ‘ good luck.

    Update! Sadly I don't have the energy to write more chapters. Covid sucks and I lost my uncle to it a couple of days ago and now my brother has tested positive as well. I need some time to think about things and help family out. I know you guys have been eagerly waiting for the chapters but right now, I'm in no position to do so. Please pray for us. I hope y'all are doing well.

    Didn't expect my star count to be so low but hey that's business baby. If you're looking for a unique new dungeon hunter story that manages to develop characters and move at a steady pace that still keeps you interested while also feeling like everything was planned ahead, go read Level Up Legacy. I will always recommend that one. This one moves at such a breakneck speed that I struggle to find meaning in the power he obtained or the actions he takes. The world is lazily put together and dialogue will never let you forget how cringy the MC is. If you're like me and you're ok reading trash while you wait for Birth of the Demonic Sword to update, then welcome aboard. If not, run away. The plot points are decided by poll, convincing me to hate democracy. The MC is erratic, immature, and barely two dimensional. If you put this story under a microscope, you'll see how little attention to detail there is. But if you're like me and you're fine rewatching 'Wise Man's Grandchild' on Crunchyroll for the fifth time even though you know its garbage, enjoy. The title is clickbait. Him being a porter quickly becomes meaningless after chapter 3. It's a decent first writing attempt though.

    Novel, did indeed start off well, I myself, was very happy when the MC received a system, but it did get confusing since it was not mentioned how he had received it. You may say, maybe he had from before, then well, author, should have stated so and developed that part of the story. Also, main reason why I dropped it, was due to the fact, the MC goes on complaining and being angry at the whole system and this guild he is in, but then later on at the chapter, First Mission (1) and the two chapters before it, he gets first, absolutely demolished by some S+ ranks, like what did he expect when he was only a D rank, then after, he ends up ACCEPTING a job in the same f.ucking guild which he despises, and takes up the offer, even though, author, had said before that, ice types are rare, so he could have got a job some where else! Lastly, there is this fake build up of love, it has no real point, except from the reason that she was nice to the MC a couple of times, but didn't step in, ONCE, only standing by the stand lines and saying, oh no, stop that - picture that in a very quiet voice -, then she goes on later where I dropped it, t state at these 'muscles' of the MC, now don't get me wrong I'm not saying that muscles aren't attractive, but getting flushed after seeing a muscles that were hidden under a shirt? it doesn't make sense. Well that was my rant, it is a good novel, it's more just not for me, but maybe others may like it.

    The story is meh, the MCs actions do not match his thoughts, the worldbuilding is horrible, the writing also isn't that good. Except for the "unique" ice affinity, the MC isn't special in any way. He is still a braindead onedimensional dream fulfilling Chinese MC. If you like reading with a half your brain off good for you, you will enjoy this, if you want an actual story go read something else. In any case, this is overhyped.

    Without shamelessly reviewing himself. I just want you all to know about what I'm planning with the novel. Originally I was planning to update 1 chapter per 20 powerstone the story received the limit has been increased to 25 powerstones/per chapter. Secondly, there will be regular polls where you guys will decide the direction the story will progress and few other elements as well. So if you like the story then please don't forget to vote for the novel!

    Wow, this is terrible, the character interactions are just really, really poorly written, and the action/fighting is even worse. I tried to think of some this Novels good points and come to find out, there are none. This is a pretty harsh review but I feel like I judged it fairly well, who knows it might get better after a few hundred chapters and the author could just be a newbie.

    The story is pretty good, like other reviews said, if you like novels like solo-levelling, Seoul's station's necromancer, etc, then you will probably like this one as well since it has a lot of similarities to them. The spelling, sentence structuring, etc is good and makes it very easy to read and understand, the only downsides I found to this novel is: The MC is literally dumber than a Chinese novel MC(Dumb AF), makes the stupidest decisions and sometimes randomly you will find that his character isn't normal but in the next chapter it will be back to normal, the other downside is the 'Protect Precious Sister' trope which really gets abundant and annoying personally. basically, everything was great, just character design needs work and delete sister.

    The novel started really great. Good character introduction and nice coloring the setting vibes to solemn BUT the story turns out of reason when he acquired the system. The MC suddenly turned arrogant. The vile characters began to be friendly (It almost seems like everyone got an amnesia). The world building is also quite a bit unreasonable. It is a mix mash of medieval, sci-fi, modern, xianxia, and wuxia.(Should have been a really great novel for me if the background was reasonable and supported by some good details of explanation for the readers to understand what and how the society works) A good example would be: Why was the military suddenly turned useless? Just because some over powered human can be as dangerous as nuclear? That does not make sense when hot weapons still work. (Those super powered humans still bleed and die) Another example was: How and why was slaves suddenly sprouted up? It's very unreasoble when the government, media and society is still working like just like a modern community. Then the story flow is very smooth sailing. Have a bit of downfall rise up become stronger and the same rotation. Anyway, it is a great novel! but it seems like it's not my cup of tea. But don't be discouraged just because of some negative review(like this). Not everyone have the same likes, so continue and strive to create a great novel!
