Return of the King?

The Ronzan Empire, the greatest military power on the continent of Ares, has begun an invasion of Farune—and Mars is nowhere to be found! The Farunians do everything they can to hold back the powerful warriors of the north, but their enemy has an ancient custom of eating monster meat, and even the Hundred are hard-pressed to deal with them. What’s worse, the imperial princes leading the invading armies are totally unstoppable: Ivanov is a wizard with all sorts of never-before-seen magic weapons and spells up his sleeve, and Egor is the embodiment of pure physical strength. Will Mars return in time to reverse the tide of the war? Or will the northern barbarians finally achieve their long-held dream of conquering the continent?

How I Became King by Eating Monsters Volume 5 is now available digitally worldwide for $7.99. It will be available in paperback at a later date. Get your copy today!
