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 am Rengoku! It is a pleasure to meet you!"

His voice boomed like a vicious storm, but Ren somehow managed to save his eardrums from bursting.

"...I'm Ren, nice to meet you…" He introduced in return.

Are my ears bleeding? He thought.

Stepping up, the blonde-haired Lucrauvian gave his name without much etiquette, simply spilling out, "Macheo."

"My name is Iris...good to meet you," the azure-haired young woman bowed her head slightly.

Given their names, a gleeful smile perched itself across the imposing man's gallant lips as he raised his hands to the air, allowing his fingertips to graze the ceiling of the hallway quite easily.

"Fantastic names! You all were heading down to the first floor for breakfast, were you? What a fantastic coincidence! I myself was getting ready for a nice meal to celebrate an even nicer day, but I felt something aloof in the air--utter betrayal by those bandit scoundrels," Rengoku spoke.
