- Description from novelbuddy

Ethan Crowe walked out of prison after seven years with nothing to his name and nowhere to belong.The world he returned to was unrecognisable.Gates had torn open across the globe, monsters roamed beyond human control, and society now revolved around the Titled - people chosen by mysterious voices and granted supernatural powers that made them heroes, weapons, and rulers all at once.Ethan wasn’t one of them.Not at first.Lost, angry, and with no future worth chasing, Ethan was barely surviving when a voice finally spoke to him.“Your title is… Lord Of Beasts.”But his awakening was wrong.Instead of power manifesting in the real world, Ethan was dragged into the Tower of Beasts - a brutal, game-like realm he could only enter while asleep. There, he hunts, tames, and evolves monstrous beasts that persist beyond his dreams…Registered as an E-Rank Titled with D-Rank potential, Ethan should have been insignificant.Yet the Lord Of Beasts cannot be measured by ordinary means.As Ethan grows stronger at an impossible rate, his existence begins to ripple outward - drawing the attention of elite Titled, criminal syndicates, and the Gates themselves.His past refuses to stay buried. His beasts grow more dangerous. And the truth behind his title hints at something far older and far more terrifying than anyone realises.In a world ruled by power, Ethan Crowe starts at the bottom.But as Lord Of Beasts, it's only a matter of time before he reaches the top!P.S.
