I’m not a Goblin Slayer Novel

Gauss arrives in a fantasy world with an Adventurer's Manual, a magical tome that grants him power by recording his monster kills. He envisions a heroic journey filled with dragon slaying and demon battles, but fate has different plans. Instead of legendary quests, Gauss finds himself endlessly fighting goblins—creatures that breed faster than he can eliminate them. As his goblin kill count climbs into the thousands, his Monster Encyclopedia faithfully tracks every death, rewarding him with stat increases and increasingly embarrassing titles. What begins as simple goblin extermination evolves into an absurd specialty. His first thousand kills earn him the title "Goblin Slayer," which upgrades to "Goblin Specialist" as his expertise grows. Eventually, he becomes the "Goblin Nemesis"—the goblin race's greatest terror in history. This slow-paced fantasy adventure follows a mage whose path to power takes an unexpected and decidedly unglamorous turn, making him an unwilling expert in goblin elimination.
