Synopsis
Aspiring hero Kleo is transported to a kingdom where he must train monsters instead of slaying them, starting with one sassy slime companion.
Kleo dreams of becoming a gallant, monster-slaying hero, and when a twist of fate sees him whisked off to a strange and distant land, it seems he's finally got his chance. But the king doesn't want Kleo slaying monsters–he wants him training them, preparing mighty creatures to fight against the forces of darkness. Unfortunately, the kingdom's a little short on monsters at the moment... and Kleo's journey begins with only one sassy slime to back him up. It's a quirky quest with one majorly reluctant hero!
