Fantasy

After a cataclysmic doom struck the planet, the world changed forever. To attain the title of Hunter and fight for humanity's survival, a human must summon a beast. These beasts are companions for life, serving as magical assistants, combat partners, or workers, ranked from Primal, Lesser, Greater, Elder, Ancient, to Mythic.
    In New Florence City, the capital of Country One, the noble Kingsley Family is renowned for a superior bloodline that consistently produces Elder-ranked summons. Cedric Kingsley, the Duke himself, is the master of two powerful Elder beasts. His daughters, Vivian and Raven, similarly summoned high-tier monsters at the age of one.
    However, Luke Kingsley, their brother and the heir, was unable to summon a beast.
    When his final awakening day arrived, Luke successfully tapped deep into his soul. The crowd watched with bated breath. But what did he summon? A dragon? A leviathan? A phoenix?
    No. Luke summoned a… metal glove?
    [Hell Ape Gauntlet]
    In a world where hunters contracted magical beasts, Luke only had a piece of metal to show.
    Termed a complete disgrace to his bloodline, Luke was mocked by the city, stripped of his title as heir, and banished from the estate with nothing to his name. With a useless scrap metal gauntlet, what could he possibly achieve?
    [Welcome, Host. Are you ready for your new forge?]
    “New forge? I can craft more beast armor?”
    [Crimson Lynx Helmet: Cost 100 Flame points | Poison Golem Chestplate: Cost 150 Flame Points | Cosmic Unicorn Shoulderplate: 500 Flame points]
    With every piece of beast armor Luke hammers out and equips, he is infused with their magical abilities. And the moment he completes a full armor set, the legendary beast comes back to life, bound to his will.
    To hell with the noble family tree. Luke is going to convert raw scrap metal into pure gold and build a legacy that will make the entire world tremble.
    “It turns out, I was the strongest after all.”
