Arifureta: From Commonplace to World’s Strongest Zero

Long before Hajime was ever summoned to the world of Tortus, the Synergist known as Oscar Orcus embarked on an extraordinary journey—one he never actually asked for. Content with a quiet, unremarkable existence, Oscar is a hardworking craftsman who keeps his head down and focuses solely on earning enough money to support a local orphanage. He has no interest in grand adventures or heroic ambitions, preferring the safety of his ordinary routine over anything that might put him or those he cares about at risk. However, his peaceful life is shattered when Miledi Reisen abruptly crashes into his world. Driven by a radical and dangerous goal, she demands that Oscar join her in an impossible crusade to defy and defeat the gods themselves. Naturally, he flatly refuses, wanting absolutely nothing to do with such reckless peril. Yet, avoiding fate proves far more difficult than simply saying no. When the very danger he tried so desperately to escape comes knocking directly at his door, Oscar finds himself dragged into a conflict that will forever change his destiny.
