I Think I'll Cheat to Become a Spellsword in Another World

For Suzumiya Kaede, life offers little to anticipate beyond the hours he loses himself in online games—and lately, even that single comfort feels as though it is slipping through his fingers. When a grueling three-day binge in his beloved MMO finally drives his exhausted body past its breaking point, he collapses into unconsciousness, never imagining where—or what—he will wake up to. Instead of his familiar room, Kaede opens his eyes to a spectacular fantasy realm entirely unlike his own: a sprawling world brimming with terrifying monsters and alive with genuine magic. Rather than surrendering to fear or confusion over his inexplicable circumstances, he chooses to embrace the extraordinary opportunity fate has dropped into his lap. Armed from the very start with skills so immensely powerful they border on the unbelievable, Kaede resolves to make the most of his second chance and carve out a place for himself in this dangerous new land. By fusing swordsmanship with spellcraft, he sets his sights on forging an entirely unprecedented path—one no one has ever conceived before: the spellsword.
