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.
"It's been a long time since we've last met." Elizabeth nodded, revealing a smile. "You seem to be very busy lately. Not only did you intercept the fleet sent out to sea by the Church, even the cultists on the island have vanished without a trace."
Benjamin shrugged.
"This… I've never said I was the one responsible for all these."
"Who could have done it but you?" Elizabeth seemed somewhat rueful, "These are the latest news from the Kingdom of Helius. The Pope is furious because of it, and many people have been dragged into it. Two hundred priests have been demoted."
Hearing this, Benjamin was rather surprised.
Could the impact be so great? This was only a failed crusade against the worshippers across the sea. Clearly, the Church could have kept everything under wraps and settled things in private, but they had gone and made a fuss out of this. Were they not afraid that their reputation would be tarnished?
