Maguri (마구리)

Every night, he prayed to wake in a world of magic and adventure. One day, his wish came true, though not in the way he expected. He awoke in a vast, snowy wilderness as a Barbarian, a powerful race feared for their strength and savagery. Though the world was everything he’d dreamed of, his new form came with challenges. Determined not to live as a mindless brute, he learned the human tongue, studied their customs, and became a registered mercenary. But despite his efforts to belong, his monstrous appearance and overwhelming strength lead most to see him as a threat. Now, caught between the world he longed for and the one that rejects him, he must fight to prove he’s more than what others fear and uncover the reason he was brought here in the first place.
