[Dystopian] [Dark Comedy] [Humanoid Monsters]
Zero lives on the border as an enforcer among humans. Every day, she kills monsters and eats them to fill her stomach, leading a monotonous life, until one day she finally meets someone like herself and returns with them to the last human gathering place, the Nest.
But why does she have to pay a billion for the right to breathe?
Lin Wan is an ordinary second-year science student. To make ends meet, she takes a 250-credit assignment at school.
Failing to recognize the rare writing disguised as patterns on the contract, she gets tricked into joining a ragtag border exploration team.
The whole team is wiped out. Just as a B-rank monster is about to smash her head in,
its tentacles pin it to the ground, then tear it apart. The tentacles belong to a humanoid monster who calls herself Zero.
This monster seems to think she's human? And an enforcer, at that?
Nest Eleven, the Nest of Order, is a place where money is everything, discrimination is accepted as common sense, and staying alive costs money.
Here, any illegal act can be carried out legally, as long as you get the proper permit.
The morals people once had have long been thrown into the garbage heap of history. Selfishness, greed, and cruelty have become the mainstream of the age.
The people at the bottom either stake their families and sell their futures to scrape together tuition and take the exams, hoping to get a high enough score,
or rely on some kind of body modification, flesh-and-blood sorcery, or a demigod's gaze that might appear from who knows where to increase their strength and become powerful enforcers.
Get paid to do the job. Pursue money without restraint. Become a "monster" that hunts monsters.
