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.
"Teacher Benjamin! You actually came to rescue us!"
Half an hour after the line of blockades was toppled, Benjamin was reunited with more than a hundred mages that were led by Varys at a secluded forest. Both sides were relieved.
They had not seen Benjamin for quite a few days now, and their faces were coloured with excitement.
With a wave of his hand, Benjamin answered happily, "This is nothing to be fussed over. After all, you’re the ones who left the plains to rescue me. I just returned and helped you out a little."
Honestly, the spreading of the news about the plague was largely done by these mages. Benjamin’s restless endeavour in chatting up people outside the enclosure did not have much of an impact.
But, the biggest reason for their success was the church’s hasty decisions.
