Frankenstein's Monster Except Frankenstein Is Not A Scientist But A Random Kid Who Learned Too Much About Monsters And Revival Techniques From Around The World Because His Parents Travel A Lot For "Work" And Now That He's Old Enough To Live On His Own He Tries EVERYTHING using ALL THE MONSTER PARTS At Once. Shenanigans ensue

The parents are rarity hunters who specialize in gathering body parts, taxidermy and other forms of creatures from around the world to sell to collectors. Naturally, they own quite a lot of pieces themselves which they bring to their mansion whenever they make a short stop at home during their never-ending world tour.

Victor, who has been dragged along on his parent's travels ever since his birth, has had enough of never staying in one place for more than a week and decides to stay in the mansion the second he's old enough to do so.

His parents are skeptical at first but eventually agree and hire an old acquaintance to be Victor's butler to keep an eye on their son and so he's not completely on his own all of a sudden. Finally having the opportunity to make proper connections with his peers, Victor decides to befriend the town's people. Little does he know, he has no social skills. Who would've thunk. It's not like he's never had a meaningful social connection with anyone besides his parents and very questionable adults.

Eventually, he returns home, defeated by his completely and utterly failed attempt at making friends. He starts regretting his choice to stay at the mansion but then his butler makes a suggestion.

If he can't make friends why not make a friend.

Victor, horrified at first at the fact this idea is coming from his Butler of all people, the guy who was hired to take care of him and keep him out of trouble, questions the sanity of the man only to be reminded

"I'm friends with your parents, Victor".

Fair. Let's go. There's more than enough material to work with in this house after all.

At first the two work together but as the project begins to take shape the butler realizes he knows nothing about these things compared to this kid, and so Victor fully takes the reigns.

Zombie and jiangshi parts are an easy base to start with but he doesn't have enough for a full body. A vampire's heart? Sure, nothing else fits. Vocal chords of a siren will be fun at karaoke. A Nurarihyon...something. Let's just stuff it in the abdominal cavity for a hard mode playing tag. How did his parents even get that thing...?

Victor continues building the body using every single one of his parent's collections until it is finally complete. And it is beautiful. Now there's one thing left to do: bring his new best friend to life. But how? He has learned about hundreds of different methods during his travels with his parents but he doesn't understand any of them in their entirety. So what you do in such a predicament is throw everything at the wall and see what sticks of course. If the goal is to cover the entire wall, he'll get there eventually.

Talismans, spells, summons, everything he can think of until lightning finally completes the equation. The roof of the mission is gone, rubble everywhere but

He Is Alive.

Victor climbs out from under the collapsed roof and walks up to his creation. Finally. He did it.

"Welcome, my creation. I am Victor, your mak-"

"你好." ("Nǐ hǎo" if Google Translate didn't betray me)

"...."

"....."

"........."

"I forgot to switch the jiangshi brain for the English zombie brain."
