Description

Make way, make way for the greatest being in all the known universe!

Summoned to this strange and unknown world, a lost demon struggles to face the dangers of a world swarming with dangerous monsters. Guided by the World Engine, he must face harrowing dungeons and wicked plots, all while growing his power and name until he is recognized as the majestic being he truly is. Who needs memories? Who needs power? Both of those things can be created.

Only one small problem...he was summoned to protect his summoner from corruption. Worse still, he was summoned in the body of a cat.

This isn't a super deep story about great and terrible things that take themselves very seriously.
This is a fun story about a cat. Or fiend, whichever. It doesn't take itself to seriously, and there's plenty of humor, puns, and a bit of drama for flavor.
A lite fun read to make your day a little happier.
Story: has been slow to develop. Lots of hints at conflict to come, much of that unrealized as of yet. What we've seen so far as been well done.
Style: basic dungeon crawler. Mostly action with a little character development and litrpg optimization on the side for flavor. Definitely not litrpg focused.
Grammar: only saw two minor errors so far, both promptly corrected. That typos are so swiftly corrected says very good things about the authors dedication to getting grammar right.
Characters: it's quite undeniable that the cat, which is the main viewpoint character, comes across as a cat. I'd say he's fairly typical for his species, arrogant and self-centered. Either as a fiend or cat, I guess.
The side characters, including his somewhat hapless summoner, also come across as people with depths that are only hinted at, and I'm sure that won't cause any conflict at all in the future.

I loved this book so far. The beginning catches your attention right away and keeps the reader engaged. I can't wait to read the next installment. This book looks to be a great book for D&D lovers. I'm loving the main character. Please keep releasing new chapters quickly. I want more!
