Monster Ruler: Rise of Zen Raymond

At fifteen, every aspiring Beast Tamer receives the chance to form their first contract. For Zen Raymond, that chance should have meant nothing. Born with Vital Conversion Deficiency, Zen possesses a body incapable of supporting the path expected of a proper Beast Tamer. In the powerful Raymond family, where five siblings compete for the right to become heir, weakness isn’t merely unfortunate. It’s a reason to be discarded. But Zen learned something from spending his life at a disadvantage: Strength isn’t always where everyone else is looking. While others chase prestigious bloodlines, rare monsters, and overwhelming talent, Zen sees value in beasts others overlook. He studies their weaknesses, understands their potential, and builds them into something far more dangerous than anyone expected. And beasts are only the beginning. Money. Influence. Information. Loyalty. Power. Zen intends to build all of it. The Raymond family believes only one heir can stand above the rest. Zen has no intention of merely becoming that heir. He intends to build something greater than the family itself. Monster Ruler: Rise of Zen Raymond is a progression fantasy centered around beast taming, evolution, strategic battles, family rivalry, business building, and a protagonist who grows through calculation rather than blind strength.
