That one suspect purchase sent Kairo spiraling into another world where monsters can make a snack out of him.
Beforehand, 19-year-old Kairo Packer lived a surprisingly safe life as a typical convenience store worker. You'd think with a name like Kairo, he'd have faced some hand-warming or combative situations before. Nope. Not even a single angry hiss from a stray cat.

Clearly out of his depth, he has to quickly become a skilled wizard in this other world or face a fate of being cut into tiny fodder pieces for the shriekers.
