Daniel Grace was a high school student who struggled to manage his own money and had a fondness for fantasy light novels. He had transferred to Japan due to his parents’ work. On a rainy day, two unexpected events drastically changed his life: a girl from his school died in a traffic accident, and a portal to another world opened in his path. Daniel then found himself in the wavering empire of Ordinem Finis, tasked with the difficult mission of interfering in the elections for consul to prevent a conspiracy that sought to plunge the world into a new millennial war.
