Kubei was just an ordinary pencil and button pusher working a day job, hating his boss and making horrible speeches when one day he fell asleep after pushing an all-nighter. When he woke up, he was bound to a chair, facing three creepy robed women and in a body way too young and way too weak to be his own. As he slowly came to, he realized that he was no longer in the same universe as he was before. He had teleported to the Kingdom of Helius, where an all-powerful church rules its lands and wages war against the elusive group known only as Mages. Armed with an incredibly cocky neural interface that just won’t shut up and his own sheer wit, our MC will find himself not just fighting to survive, but maybe even something bigger than himself.

The System seemed to be hurt as he replied, "This state of being means that the amount of data constantly pouring into me is overwhelming, with a huge portion of it, quite frankly, unable to be put into words. The elements and magic are only at the surface of what humans are able to perceive in this world."

Benjamin was confused but he could clearly tell that The System had put up with him for so long that it had lost interest in providing proper answers.
Figures.
