Sion, a young betrayed college student who saw his world engulfed in an otherworldly flame and overrun by monsters and creatures that one would believe only existed in myths, was transported to a new and completely unfamiliar realm when he was on the brink of death.   In a realm where monsters and mythical beasts roamed freely, where the unimaginable was possible and survival of the fittest prevailed for most, he found himself with an opportunity. This world, as stunning as it was grim and merciless, offered him a chance at a cost: his appearance had changed, and the gods had taken his very identity. He became an entirely new person, and an opportunity to build his own nation presented itself to him when he realized that not everything was as it seemed, especially with the new identity he had gained and a talent that was one of a kind and rare, one with an uncertain path, one which no other had: the unique talent "SSS—Ranked Beast Master: Summoner's Phantom." In an era built on chaos, will the path set by fate and the gods be adhered to, or will a new path, fraught with uncertainty and the prospect of greater gains, be carved out in an era founded on chaos?   On a journey filled with perils and abominations, will he be able to overcome the obstacles his enemies present, establish his power, and demonstrate his strength to the world?
