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!

"Numbers are directly tied to trade and economics," Elyon explained. "If every country used a different number system, it would cause chaos. Even if you don't understand the language, as long as you know the numbers, trade can happen."
That made sense. Damien realized it was probably the same reason why Arabic numerals were globally recognized in his own world.
Feeling a little envious of how knowledgeable Elyon sounded, Damien reached over and patted his head again.
"Wh-what are you doing? Stop—stop that!" Elyon squirmed.
"Can't help it. It's your fault for being so cute, Ely."
"D-don't say such nonsense! Look here—pay attention! I'll write them again. This is 1, this is 2, then 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and finally 0."
"Got it," Damien nodded.
"Next, you'll also need to learn about currency," Elyon continued.
