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.
"You're really too much, killing a child as young as she was!"
In Benjamin's brain, the System was yelling in a rather awkward, twisted tone of voice.
"It's not that I wanted to kill her. Just that, in the state she'd been in before, what's the difference between that and being dead?" Benjamin put the report in his hand down, sighing as he said, "I've already asked the two siblings to do a specific inspection. The imprint planted by the Church was very mysterious. It seems that it had existed since she'd been a year or two years old, and it would deepen more and more as she grew up. It'd have been impossible to get rid of it. So, the real her had died in the hands of the Church from the very beginning. I was merely giving that weak and declining body a quick ending."
Hearing that, the System was quiet for a moment, before its voice returned to its original, lazy tone. "Oh, whatever then. I was just looking for an opportunity to make fun of you."
