Transported into another world, professional shut-in, Ren Nakamura, expects a path of ludicrous powers, fame, and glory; the classic tale of an otherworld hero saving a doomed world from the conquest of a tyrannical, almighty demon king. 

--What he receives instead, is a harsh reality check. 
Betrayed, beaten, and humiliated, he quickly learns the true nature of this world: it doesn’t cater to him in the slightest. 
Inept, gullible, and unsociable, he must cultivate himself into a proper person, if he hopes to survive in the ravenous world of Gaia.

In a twisted, yet fantastical world of magic, knights, and dragons that persecutes otherworlders, Ren must overcome his “level zero” start and cultivate himself into someone capable of fighting off the obstacles of Gaia. 
The otherworlder-hunting Argonauts, the world-loathing cultists, and even the very aspects of sin themselves; these are just the tip of the iceberg on the troubles that await him on his journey. 

But it’s a harsh, cruel world filled with misery and darkness; he can’t do it alone. Friends are made, friends are lost--that is the nature of the path he must walk. 

This is not the story of a blessed, perfect hero, but of a flawed, young man who has to shed his weaknesses. 
Together, witness his journey into becoming not just a proper hero, but a proper human.

Garden of the Abyss

I don't put much stock into what's good or bad. The world is too gray and complex for that.

But even so, I knew above all else my sister was good. Even as our so-called parents abandoned us in the hellhole of the slums, she never once abandoned me.

Illya placed me above all else, and I wanted to do the same for once. I wanted to become rich enough to buy her a ticket to a nice life.

Even with all of this proclaimed talent, all of his power, what good is it if I can't achieve the one thing in this world I desire?

Well, there was at least one thing I desired at that time.

As he walked through the rowdy streets of the capital, the width of the nearly-layered cobblestone streets of the market that was filled with people was parted for him as he walked. It wasn't because of his status as an Argonaut that the people stayed out of his way.

Endless, Boundless, Continuous
