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.
Benjamin caught on some weird conversations when he was dazed.
".....Hey, wake up."
"Why isn’t he awake yet? Is he dead?"
"Probably not, he’s still breathing; see?"
"Why did you take him back in the first place? He looked so pale, is he sick? They said there’s a pandemic in the kingdom where many people died, what if he got the plague with him?"
"Hmm… Okay then, I’ll kill him with the axe now so he won’t be able to spread the plague here."
Benjamin somehow felt a chill down his spine as he jolted awake in the bed.
W-What was going on?
Pain once again overcame Benjamin who just got up. Not only his head hurt, his arms, waist, back, knees…..; every part of his body was in severe pain. It felt as if he rolled down ten over meters down from a cliff and injured himself badly.
…..Eh?
Hold on.
Benjamin suddenly recalled that it was not ‘as if’. He really did roll himself down a hill.
