Introduction

“I invite you to an endless game.”

Kenichi Yamada is a 35-year-old salaryman, single and without a girlfriend. Disliking easy, mindless games, he has spent over ten years searching for a game he could truly sink his teeth into. Then one day, he suddenly vanishes from Earth…

After stumbling upon an unnamed online game, Kenichi attempts to play it on the highest difficulty setting, “Hell Mode.” Instead, he is reincarnated into another world as Allen, a young peasant boy.

Making use of his one-of-a-kind and mysterious talent as a “Summoner,” Allen begins to grope his way toward becoming the strongest in an unforgiving isekai world. However, with no strategy guides, no online forums, and even leveling up proving difficult, life in this other world turns out to be far more “Hell Mode” than he ever imagined!?

A laid-back isekai life just is not enough!

An overpowered protagonist from the very beginning is already old news!?

Thus begins a super high-difficulty isekai adventure tale of a former hardcore gamer taking on the ultimate challenge!!
