"On a hot summer day, a young man in his twenties suffers a painful accident—only to find himself transported to another world. But he soon discovers he didn’t die, and the accident wasn’t even the reason for his transfer. Labeled as an outsider who must be executed, how will Takashi Takeru survive in this strange new world?"

It was a hot day, so hot that the asphalt looked like it was seriously considering melting.

I'm Takashi Takeru, a 20 year old guy, and my simple plan for today was to watch anime in peace... but the air conditioning decided to rebel. Yep. That stupid white box stopped working at the height of summer hell.

I had only one option: ice cream. I left the house, slowly melting the atmosphere outside. In short: what's considered a "boiled egg" inside turns into a "burnt egg" with the first step outside.

I was walking toward the store, sweating profusely, when I spotted a truck speeding toward me. For a moment, I felt as if my life counter was about to zero, a familiar sight for novel lovers... Truck kun? Could it be you?

At the last second, the truck stopped, and my expectations were shattered. Well, of course, I couldn't believe it.

Me?! I'm the idiot? What a jerk driver.

Anyway, I bought the ice cream and headed back, savoring my first bite of victory on that fateful day... until I heard the same sentence again:

I looked up. This time, it wasn't a truck. I was standing in front of an electrical store, and right above me... there was an air conditioner about to collapse.

The store employee tried to save me like Superman, but he failed.

What a stupid employee... and what a stupid air conditioner.

And so, the air conditioner collapsed.

And the last thing I saw in this world...

The last thing I saw was an air conditioner.
