In a world of magic and swords, a young man named Shota finds himself reincarnated as a lowly goblin named Hermit, stripped of his memories and his former identity. Cursed by the goddess of lust, Lusseria, for insulting her, Shota's chance at becoming an overpowered main character is lost, leaving him as the most worthless creature in the realm.

As a goblin, Hermit struggles to survive in a harsh and unforgiving world, scorned and cursed by all who cross his path. But despite his painful beginnings, Hermit refuses to give up hope to carve out a place for himself in this cruel world.
