They pray to a monster for salvation.
He wants to know what their faith can do to a soul.
Evan never planned on becoming anyone’s god. As the fungal mastermind behind a growing army of Puffcaps, he has more practical concerns: steal useful skills, strengthen his forces, and survive whatever the world throws at him next.
Then people start worshiping him. And their devotion reveals a connection between souls that his stolen abilities alone cannot explain.
For a monster who can harvest power from the dead, that discovery is too valuable to ignore.
Now Evan has a new frontier to explore—and an empire to keep alive while he does it. Ancient records offer ways to wield a divine artifact he barely understands. A breakthrough in spellcasting could make his smallest servants far more dangerous. Every experiment offers another advantage, provided he can turn the results into weapons before his enemies catch up.
But his expanding reach is drawing him into deeper trouble. Murderous cultists prey on the desperate. Underwater ruins harbor creatures twisted by a spreading Mist. Beneath it all, a damaged seal holds back a power Evan cannot afford to underestimate.
He can send an army through a dungeon. He can put a master swordsman inside a mushroom. Promising people salvation may prove considerably harder.
The Monster They Worship, Volume 10 of They Wanted a Hero. They Made a Monster, continues a dark fantasy LitRPG saga of stolen skills, monstrous ingenuity, and ruthless empire building. For progression fantasy readers who want their power gains earned through experimentation—and their victories served with a vicious sense of humor.
His followers see a future without war or hunger. Evan sees a world connected by his mycelium.
If he can make those visions one and the same, what will be left outside his control?
