About this story
Kevin Shoeman is dog-sitting when the sky cracks and the system rips him into a life or death tutorial. A cruel twist of fate results in the system randomly choosing his class: Tamer.
In a cosmic impossibility, he slaughters his own tamed beast as he is granted the boons of his class. With no alternative, the system assigns Kevin the role of tamed beast. Armed with a collar and a skill for a tame that doesn't exist, Kevin must fight through escalating dangers in order to not be washed away by the powers that will soon control earth.
