Xen is not your average Joe. In fact, he isn't even Joe. He just looks and acts like the newbie Hunter who died a horrible death in one of the many beginner dungeons that have littered the Earth since the System's arrival decades ago.

But what really lies beneath the human skinsuit once known as Joe is Xen the Mind Slime—a Shapeshifter.

Armed with the appearance and knowledge of the dead Hunter, Xen sets out to acquire new monstrous forms and abilities, all the while blending in with the other Hunters who seek to kill his own kind.

Think solo leveling but from a monster perspective. Collapse

    The author has rewritten this story, but they posted it separately. It's now called "Shapeshifter (A Non-Human LitRPG)" on Royal Road.

    Today, on its official page the author has said to be dropping shapeshifter. If you enjoyed their stuff they also write Reborn as a Demonic Tree which has lots more written and is actually quote succesful, thus is at no risk of being dropped.

    its really great. the MC is a monster that can pretend to be human, but since he was born a monster, he actually thinks like one. its hilarious and interesting to see the misunderstandings since he doesnt truly understand human thoughts sometimes.

    just sad it updates really slowly gloom

          To my knowledge there is a minimum amount of chapters Ranobes can set as available after a certain amount of chapters have been written. Though this is just me speculating

    I feel like this already

    I've actually read this, the author is an experienced guy but this time he made a mistake. It's basically a monster human with a monster tag.

    Rank C+(Great premise, but I didn't like it, and it deteriorates very quickly)

    The novel is good until the current chapters, Mc is still learning about the world and how to live in it. He seems more like an anti-hero than a villain, but considering that he considers everything as possible food and doesn't waste anything, he'll probably commit massacres, etc, to get biomass, skills, etc, en masse.

      It's good, but Mc hasn't gone to the real world yet and is leveling first. Don't pay attention to the guy above, he's just a guy needing to touch some grass.

      The reason he's so angry with a NOVEL as to give away spoilers is simply because Mc prefers to try to learn without his ability, because he can't absorb all the memory with the chance of not getting what he wants.
