The Monster Enforcer Doesn't Want to Pay the Breathing Fee

[Dystopia] [Dark Comedy] [Humanoid Monsters]

Zero lives on the frontier, serving as an Executor among humans. Every day is spent killing monsters and eating them to fill her stomach, a dull routine that continues until she finally meets one of her own kind. Together, they return to Nest, humanity's last stronghold.

But why does she have to pay a billion in breathing fees?

Lin Wan is an ordinary second-year science student. To make ends meet, she takes on a task worth 250 credits at school.

Because she fails to recognize the rare writing disguised as a pattern on the contract, she gets tricked into joining a shabby frontier exploration squad.

The squad is wiped out. Just as a B-rank monster is about to smash through her skull,

it gets pinned to the ground by a tentacle, then torn to pieces. The tentacles belong to a humanoid monster calling itself Zero.

Does this monster think it's human? And an Executor, too?

Nest Eleven, the [Nest of Order], is a place where money trumps everything, discrimination is commonplace, and you have to pay just to stay alive.

Here, any illegal act can be carried out legally, as long as you get the right permit.

Humanity's old morality has long since been dumped in the trash heap of history. Selfishness, greed, and cruelty have become the norm.

The lower classes here have two choices: stake their families and sell their futures to scrape together tuition, then take an exam and earn a high enough score,

or rely on unknown sources of mutations, flesh-and-blood divine arts, the gaze of demigods, and more to increase their strength and become powerful Executors.

Get paid for the job, pursue money and nothing else, and become a "monster" that hunts monsters.
