Me and My Pet Mico

Zarn never cared for power, fame, or the endless struggles of the world. Living in the slums with his tamed beast, the blue-flamed lion Mico, he only wished for a quiet life away from the ambitions of the strong. But fate had other plans.

A single mock fight with a powerful family\'s heir changes everything. Dragged into the world he sought to avoid, Zarn is recruited by the influential household and sent to one of the major academies in their name. With Mico by his side, he enters a battleground where talent, politics, and ambition collide.

At first, he planned to keep his head down and endure. But battle after battle, something inside him began to shift. Each fight awakened something exhilarating—an itch for challenge, a craving for stronger opponents. The thrill of combat twisted his indifference into something else entirely.

Before long, Zarn and Mico went from nameless slum rats to celebrated heroes in the public eye. But to those who truly knew them, they were something far more dangerous—battle-hungry monsters.
