As a soon-to-be chieftain, Ashlani's responsibilities were numerous, complex, and often boring, but as a recently reincarnated keelish (a reptilian pest), his responsibilities only extend to 1. survive another day, 2. keep his belly full, and 3. kill anything that keeps him from numbers 1 and 2. Oh, and, if the opportunity arises, take revenge on his best friend turned murderer.
Ashlani was sent on his inaugural hunt as the chieftain-to-be of his tribe when he was shot in the back by the man he was closest to, the one he called his closest friend. Post-mortem, he was greeted by a [System], the elect, singular keelish representative. Now, his focus must be on continuous growth and evolution, to awaken to his grand potential, and lead his new people to a new age.
One of the best "Monster Society" type stories I've ever read, and I've read quite a few.
The character actually feels like a "Keelish" (not just being a human wearing a monsterskin for edge-value) and the other characters introduced are also steadily gaining in importance and appeal.
The plot so far is very good and feels impactfull while building up to something greater, the chapters are well written and the world is truly a creation standing on its own feet as far as I can judge not just copying the old and tired DnD matrix while still being a very satisfying LitRPG.
