Damien Crowell was just a regular high school student who took a regular tunnel on his way to school—until one day, that tunnel spit him out into a completely different world. Instead of his usual path, he finds himself in a dark forest that stretches on for days, running on nothing but sheer stubbornness and a tiny water bottle. Just when he thinks he's going to die, he stumbles upon a castle straight out of a fairy tale (or a theme park) and promptly passes out. When he wakes up, he's in a prison cell, surrounded by confusingly handsome men who speak gibberish—until a beautiful, horned beastman with perfect hair and a translator necklace finally lets him understand. Now, trapped in a fantasy world where every guy looks like they stepped out of a modeling agency, Damien’s biggest challenge isn’t just survival—it’s trying to figure out why *he* always looks like a mess in comparison. Can he make it back home, or will he end up staying just to admire all the beautiful faces? Join Damien as he navigates a strange new world, awkward introductions, and a whole lot of unexpected feels in this hilarious, fantasy adventure!

The backyard—a large grassy field with a small forest—was where Damien began warming up. Earlier, he and Theo had been alone in an upstairs room for a physical exam. It had been exhausting, with Theo playfully teasing him the whole time. By the end, it had turned into an exam for both of them, and it was honestly a bit much. Damien hoped for a break from that sort of thing for a while.
"Let's start with some general physical ability measurements," Theo said, sounding a bit too enthusiastic, his expression glowing with excitement.
Under Theo's direction, Damien ran, jumped, lifted, and threw things. He even held a sword for the first time—a blunt one, apparently—but it was much heavier than the bamboo sword he had briefly handled during a high school kendo class. When Theo asked him to do 100 practice swings, Damien could barely manage half. He felt embarrassed, especially since the servants were watching, but Theo didn't comment on his performance.
