I'm a Troll Who Ate Trash and Made It to the Top

(Not Western fantasy) (Future city) (Black comedy) (Punk) (Cthulhu) (Funny) (Wild imagination) (Brave New World)

A deadbeat dad, a mother on the run, a brother in prison, and a family drowning in debt.

Li Yu has no umbrella, but he does have a mouth.

The good news is, he really can eat.

The bad news is, he can never get full.

Bad news: The college entrance exam standards have been raised!

Good news: The Education Bureau has introduced a new policy granting high school seniors the benefits of university students.

To get into the low-tier university he wants and land a high-paying job with a monthly salary of 3,000, Li Yu starts eating as much as he can. He takes a part-time job at an all-you-can-eat restaurant, eating garbage, then works as a taste tester at a ready-meal factory, eating nasty dishes from an unlicensed workshop...

Eat, eat, eat... I’ll eat my way to the top...
