Alexander Marsh never asked to be sent to a different world to search for holy artifacts of immense power, but when your girlfriend turns out to be the all-powerful sun god Ra you don't get much choice in things. Alexander struggled for 17 years in the world of Gaia, becoming more disillusioned with his lot in life as time passed, before he finally died on one of his divinely compelled theft jobs.

Luckily this isn't a tale about Alexander Marsh…

Meet Alex, the simple slime who eats Alexander Marsh's body and gains fragments of the man's memories. With one meal Alex goes from humble mindless drone to an individual with his own thoughts and goals, and with that change comes an entirely new destiny for the once simple slime. Born with a rare unique ability and blessed with some of the memories of a god's chosen champion Alex might be the most complex slime to ever live… But even as unique as Alex is, will a mere slime be able to survive long enough to reach the top of the food chain in the cruel world of Gaia?
