Book 18 Chapter 1: Part 1
In order to halt the unprecedented advance of a massive monster horde on the Dragon Empire of Kilmont, Shin and his party participated in the construction of a great defensive wall.
Thanks to their efforts, the battle was nearing an end: at that time, the swarm of shapeshifting monsters, which had maintained a neutral stance until then, moved towards Shin’s position — while eliminating the other monsters in their path.

“Pleased to make your acquaintance. I have come to meet Lord Shin as per my master’s orders.”

Being capable of human speech, coupled with its near perfect reproduction of a human being, made the Gelganger a creature Shin had never known before. There was no reason not to be cautious.
