On the side of a medieval-like street sat a boy about eleven to twelve years old, silently staring at the passersby.
"I really came to a fantasy-like world..."
His name was Karl, a gloomy-looking blond-haired boy with a malnourished body. The dark circles under his eyes showed the stress that had built up over the years.
But there was something more to him than what met the eye.
'F*ck! Why did I come to this world?!' Karl cursed loudly in his mind.
He was not the original owner of Karl's body.
'Overlord?!? Goddamn skeleton daddy!'
He was a normal office worker from another world.
'Fck! Fck! F*ck!'
...cursing loudly at his unfortunate fate.
After sending several curses to the invisible being who had sent him here, Karl calmed down and started thinking about his situation, going through the memories of the original host.
'I actually became Ninya's younger brother? But this character didn't exist in the original...?'
The face of a dead girl, brutally murdered by Clementine, passed through his mind.
Of course, that was set to happen in the future, and honestly, he could think of many ways to simply avoid it.
But there was something he couldn't avoid.
The face of a villainous-looking noble passed through Karl's mind.
The noble had recently taken a fancy to his older sister, Tsuareninya Beiron.
Karl paused for a moment.
'Technically, her fate was even worse than Ninya's...'
Of course, that was if he ignored her later joining the Great Tomb for a lifetime of unpaid, unappreciated work...
'It somehow became a lot worse, didn't it?'
The corners of Karl's mouth twitched before he let out a helpless sigh.
'Everything is happening so fast. The best I can think of is to somehow convince my sisters to leave this place and run away. But with our current finances, it seems next to impossible to achieve that...'
He sighed again, thinking about his bleak future.
He wasn't even an adult—just a scrawny twelve-year-old with twig-like arms and legs.
'Let's just escape from here first...'
But suddenly—
[Ding!]
