“I’m not a hero. I’m a monster that devours monsters.” In a chaotic world where ferocious monsters run rampant, there was a “monster” who inherited the title of “hero” in the holy city, the last bastion of humanity on the brink of extinction. Alice, a rookie adventurer, was attacked by a large pack of dog people (Kobolds) during her first ‘dungeon’ exploration. The one who saved her life was Leon, the third-generation “Savior” hero, who, despite having the body of a monster (Ghoul), possesses a human heart.

“I’m nothing but a defiled ghoul who keeps on killing monsters.”

“No, you’re the only hero who can save the world.”

For some reason, Alice, who admires him, applies to become Leon’s disciple.

A heavy mist has fallen over the world, twisting many humans into horrifying monsters. Humanity is losing the battle against these grotesque fiends, but it is not entirely without defenses. Leon Crossheart is an adventurer, a hero, a hunter of ghouls... and a ghoul himself ! His strength and regenerative ability are unmatched, but this power comes at a price: He’s reviled by the very people he strives to protect. However, there is one girl he saved who sees beyond his frightening appearance. Alice is so grateful that she wants to be his disciple, and she isn’t taking no for an answer! Will she bring light into his dark and bloodstained life, or will he keep her—and therefore his own salvation—out of reach?
