Chapter 0 - Recap

Kokei Ekiken was a normal overworked and underappreciated 27 year old salary man who one day was abducted by a Hero Summoning into another world along with a group of high school kids. After being summoned and introduced to the Temple Master of the Kingdom of Mire Kokei was analyzed by the Temple Oracle Stone which showed him that he had not talent being ranked the lowest of the low in all his stats, however he did have a Unique skill called Gamer which gave him access to his favorite MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) after departing from the Hero Party created from the remaining four high school students he left to explore the new world he'd been literally dropped into.

After discovering his skills power and using it to sell otherworldly goods to the merchants guild to gain further funds upon which he could use to travel this strange new world. The kingdom meanwhile hears rumors about his goings on and realize that he could be a far greater asset to them than they originally thought. The key among which is to act as a supporter for the High School Hero party all of whom have active classes but not a single supporter among them.

The kingdom quickly drops a net on the city with guards, soldiers, and knights patrolling and checking all gates into and out of the city in order to find him. Thanks to come reliable new friends Kokei manages to smuggle himself out of the city, where he leaves behind his name choosing instead to act from here on out as his in game avatar name as Satou.

While the newly formed party head off with a plan to leave the country behind, Satou's skills begin to show off in a big way as his equipment gained from his in-game store allows him to perform at a much higher rank than his own stats reflect. Fearing betrayal due to the possible reward to be gained for turning him in to the kingdom, Satou separated from the party only to get captured by a host of bandit. Using his Monster Summoning skill he escaped along with a good portion of the bandit's looted goods. Coming across the merchant who aided in his escape from the capital city.

She opted to courier Satou across the border in exchange for an explanation of what in this world is going on. Having agreed to finally trust someone who he feels he might be able to trust, he explains a good portion of what he knows so far. After telling his story the pair managed to cross the border and made their way to the merchant's home city in the neighboring country. Forming a business partnership Satou took guild quests to acquire materials and manufacture goods which could be sold through the merchant. 

Due to his failure to grasp the world's common sense his fame in the guild rose due to high volume of monster goods being turned in for reward, and a personal request was made to locate and exterminate a goblin village in the area. The merchant opted to join in using the excuse of protecting her investment to tag along, during which the pair came across a party of goblins who had kidnapped some young girls and were headed back to the village. After saving them and finding out what Terra's goblins are like they quickly setup a plan to siege the goblin village.

Using all the power of his skill at his disposal Satou led a one-man armed assault decimating the goblins and securing the safety of all their captives, but not without great risk to him as he fell unconscious mid-way through the battle. Upon waking he was informed of a dark presence which he chose to investigate only to find that it was in fact a Dungeon. After falling into a trap and the only path available being to advance further and challenge the dungeon.

Upon his return after successfully conquering the dungeon which disappeared from its location, Satou's next headache began as during his mission this time he utilized his skill's power to summon a Non-Player Character which has been mistaken for one of the God's Messengers with his name now on par with that of a Divine Beast, rumors circulated amongst those he saved. Which resulted in his fame or rather infamy exploding once they'd returned to the city now every noble wants him on staff or to rip the divine beast from him. After being detained by the ruling noble of the city he swapped his appearance and name to hide in the city with the runaway komtesse. After weeks of living his definition of on the down-lo the Count assembles an army to capture Satou only to have his forces routed and a curse lain upon him which will activate every time he attempts to perform an evil act upon Satou or his friends. Coming into contact with a higher ranked noble who express's the countries desire for non-interference with anything Satou chooses to do from here on.

Taking this as a sign that more trouble is on the horizon Satou, the komtess, and the merchant run away heading north to the outskirts of the kingdom to lay really low for a while, during the travel Satou summons a second NPC to act as a bodyguard for the girls in his party, and cover for his assumed nobility by people of the world due to his attitude, and mannerisms being to refined and polite.

The relocation ended at an outskirt village which has recently become a hotspot for adventurer's thanks to an upcoming event being referred to as a Monster Stampede resulting from the overhunting performed by the High School Heroes party displacing monsters from the north of the Mire Kingdom who are fleeing west across the border heading for the village.
