He Who Fights with Monsters
Catalog
Australian office manager Jason Asano wakes in another world without even his clothes and immediately runs into cannibals, cultists, monsters, and magic. His suspiciously sinister abilities grow through a system that blends LitRPG mechanics with cultivation, while his irreverent politics and humor collide with a society of adventurers and aristocrats.
