The Journey of Will: A Brief Synopsis
A Boy Raised by the Gods Will Be The Strongest tells the tale of Will, a baby abandoned and then found on Table Mountain by the God of Thousand Theophanies. He is subsequently raised and educated by the God of Sword, the God of Healing, and the God of Magic, growing into a remarkably brave, strong, and kind young boy.
The Call to Heroism
Will’s life takes a decisive turn at the age of fourteen when a priestess named Lunamaria visits the mountain. She reveals that Will is destined to be a Hero and tasks him with a journey to save the world, marking the beginning of his grand adventure.
From Web Novel to Manga Adaptation
The manga series is an adaptation of the light novel series of the same title, penned by author Ryousuke Hata. Hata originally launched the story on the popular “Shōsetsuka ni Narō” (Let’s Become Novelists) website in March 2019. Kadokawa then began publishing the light novel volumes with illustrations by fame, releasing the first volume in September 2019. The light novel currently has five volumes published.
