How to Succeed in Monster Farming After Getting Rejected by the Hero Guild Volume 2: A Monster Ranching LitRPG

Nicholas Parker was supposed to be a hero. Instead, the Magerium Council took one look at his test results, declared him "insufficient," and dumped him on a cursed farm that had killed seventeen previous owners. That was their first mistake. Six months later, Nick's running the most revolutionary agricultural operation in the known world. His farm produces food that makes people weep with joy, his workers consider their employment contracts to be spiritual callings, and he's accidentally founded a religion based on proper safety protocols. When he's not optimizing cockatrice egg production or managing his dimensional predator breeding program, he's casually transforming ancient curses into beneficial magical infrastructure. The problem isn't his success. The problem is that everyone keeps mistaking his practical farming techniques for cosmic intervention. Merchant guilds are declaring economic warfare. Religious extremists are organizing crusades. Government assessors can't figure out how to classify an operation that's simultaneously revolutionizing agriculture and attracting pilgrims from six provinces. Meanwhile, Nick just wants to work on his farm in peace. But when a fanatical lord shows up with fifteen hundred troops and a manifested god to eliminate what he calls "unnatural corruption," Nick discovers that the best response to people who think efficient farming is evil might be introducing them to the practical applications of enhanced agricultural strength. After all, someone has to protect the livestock. And if that means casually eliminating divine champions who interrupt important tasks, well, that's just another aspect of responsible farm management. Monster Farmer: where cosmic significance meets crop rotation, and the real magic is building something worth defending through the power of treating people with basic human dignity. View Less
