Synopsis
The final chapter has arrived. After Tanner awoke to an empty house and dust covering all but a few footprints, he starts to understand how much changes when he levels up. How fast the world moves without him. How much his kids grow and change. Sadly, there is nothing to do for it. He can't stop growing stronger, and the world needs him. But being left alone isn't the biggest problem. No, leveling up is causing more and more destruction each time and he must move away from his town for future level ups. Starting a new homestead that is hidden from the world, he restarts his path, or so he thought. When a cult rises to power and corrupted monsters start encroaching on the city, he must drop his peaceful ways and prepare for a war that only he can finish. This final book in the series is a balance of the usual slice of life and fantastical fight scenes that'll leave you on the edge of your seat. As hope begins to fall, one family will rise above it all to shelter the world from evil.
