Gregoire, the Gargoyle of Normandie

Gregoire de Gargoyle, a dead-end dungeon diver, inherits a class crystal from his father, who had long abandoned him and his mother for another. Stumbling around, unsure what to do with this unexpected second chance at life, he finds himself employed by the duke of Normandie, a young man who, at the age of twenty is already an acclaimed inventor, engineer, and philosopher.

Gregoire, whose spirit had already been agitated by his father’s abandonment, sees salvation in the revolutionary rhetoric of this eccentric young man. However, as time passes, and Gregoire witnesses the fruits of his lord’s inventions and realizes that thesethingsare more akin to curses than blessings.

Eventually learning of the duke’s origin—a devilish dimension where millions perish in wars, Gregoire takes it upon himself to bring the devil and his creations before God.

Since most stories are pro-technology/modernization, I wanted to try my hand at a Luddite story lol.

Who needs sewage?!!!

😊 Let the plague swamp the lands and dysentery infest the waters. 😊

Also, the MC is best described as a pragmatic hero.

Enjoy,
