"This is the worst," Kazuto grumbled.
He'd been running for years already, and he was bored out of his mind. How the fuck did I get into this anyway?
The memory came back to him.
----------------------------------------
Kazuto had been really fucking annoyed. He'd spent most of a day getting back to the city after his accident, and everything seemed to have changed while he was gone.
He'd jumped over the wall when he got back, just like he usually did, and the royal fucking guard had started demanding that he stop before they opened fire on him. What were they even doing out here on this side of the city? They recognized him soon enough, but what the actual fuck. Shouldn't they be back at the castle?
Some captain or other had given him a ride back to the castle in his car—even though it was some kind of toy that ran off water, which was obviously why it was so fucking slow, even though nobody listened to him when he said they needed to start working on engines powered by electricity or at least gasoline. How the fuck was he supposed to know how those things worked? Weren't there any smart people in this stupid world? He heard the second guy who got summoned was pretty smart, but he'd never had the chance to talk to him about anything useful.
Whatever. Even a slow car he could walk faster than was still better than having to climb up that annoying hill to get back to the castle. The captain had refused to say anything on the way up though, which was also pretty annoying.
But that wasn't the end of the annoying things. He'd had to go practically forever without getting laid while he made his way back to the castle where all his favorite NPCs lived. The time when he'd been summoned on his eighteenth birthday as a virgin seemed so distant now.
A day without sex? Why would he even go an hour without now that he didn't have to?
The first thing he'd done when he got back, just like he'd been fantasizing about all day, was start to look for Ise-chan. She was the first human girl he'd ever banged, and she was sooo fucking hot. It was like she'd stepped right out of a porn video or something! The only girl he'd ever seen back home with tits that big was Megan Mastromonaco, but she was a total slut. She'd said she had a boyfriend already when he'd asked her out after school that time, but he found out later she was obviously putting out for the whole basketball team.
Kazuto didn't want used goods.
He'd sort of compromised that belief when an actual goddess came onto him after he got summoned to another world. It was his first time, after all, and he'd been caught up in the moment. Plus she was perfect. It was like she couldn't get enough of his dick! They banged, and she explained a little, and then they banged again, and she explained a little more, and he'd almost been a little sad when she said she was bored of him. But then she'd said she might get interested again if he did a few things for her, and even though she was obviously not a virgin when he'd met her, he still liked banging her. He could tell that she'd gotten addicted to the shape of his dick, just like the girls in his favorite hentai manga always seemed to with the guys they were banging.
Ise-chan was already the same if the way she usually laid in bed with that vacant ahegao expression on her face after they banged was any indication. That was one of the reasons she was his favorite, and it was what he'd been looking forward to as he made for the stairs that led up to her rooms, where she always waited for him at night.
Still, she wasn't a goddess. Lucia was the one who had given him a new name based on his real name, Norman, even though he'd wanted to just start over with the name that he felt was more him. He'd wanted to go by Kazuto, but the NPCs here in the game world only seemed to care who he was and treat him like they should when he called himself Normannus like the sexy goddess had told him to. It wasn't that big a deal; he got isekai'd, didn't he? The genre might have started almost thirty years ago, but there was a reason it stayed so popular.
Isekai was awesome. Norm—Kazuto had always dreamed about it happening to him. He'd have a giant sword, and he'd have a harem of all the hottest girls—only the virgins though, since he'd get to pick the ones he wanted—and if it was a game world, he'd definitely have the coolest, most overpowered build that made all the bad guys' jaws drop in disbelief, and the goddess who summoned him would demand that he come back to bang her after he fulfilled her quest because she would turn into a total yandere after seeing how heroic and awesome he was.
He'd tried calling to Lucia when he got swept away by that stupid wave like he did when he needed a hand with something or info on whatever he was supposed to be doing, but she didn't reply.
That still made him angry, and the thought of it made him punch a small hole in the wall of the staircase as he ascended towards Ise-chan's bedroom. Lucia was probably screwing another guy behind his back. He'd told her to come with him while he did all the stuff she wanted, but she kept saying she had matters to take care of. Now she'd stopped replying to him when he called to check on her? Kazuto knew all about that from social media and, more importantly, his hentai manga.
He was getting fucking NTR'd!
Well, maybe not. Kazuto wasn't going to jump to conclusions that fast. Lucia-sama seemed to really like him. Her eyes even did the changing-to-hearts thing a few times while they were banging, though she pretended it was nothing. And she had given him Lily-chan to play with for a while, even though he hadn't been able to bring her with him like he wanted.
But now Normannus was back at the castle, and he wanted to get his knob slobbed—at a minimum. And he even had a bunch of waifus who always said yes!
There was Ise-chan, who was a classic tsundere. She always pretended not to like him, but as soon as he got his dick in her she went wild with her moaning and shaking, and she could go for hours. The fact that she was the hottest of all the girls in the castle was another reason why she was his favorite.
That's why he'd gone to find her first thing when he got back, to make sure she knew he hadn't abandoned her. She was a princess, after all, and he was being considerate of her image.
The queen had found him in Ise-chan's empty bedroom. He would've been okay with that—as a warmup for his hime, of course—since the queen was also pretty hot, and even if she wasn't a virgin, the fact that she was a queen was pretty cool. She was more the kuudere type, and he never got tired of breaking through her cold facade and making her scream his name, even if it wasn't the name he really wanted to use.

But the queen hadn't wanted to bang, which was pretty rare. He'd had a moment where he considered telling her to wait a bit while he went over to his room and banged out his transforming catgirl with the slave tattoo over her womb—just like out of a fucking hentai, because isekai was so fucking awesome!—but her words had put a stop to that.
Ise-chan had run away! Kazuto was dumbfounded at the thought of it. She was always so shy, hiding away in the library or in the garage and giving him that sexy, fake-angry stare whenever he went to see her, and she was a princess! Why would she want to leave? He'd never want to leave this castle if he hadn't promised Lucia-sama that he'd kill a bunch of evil demons or whatever for her.
The castle which was now missing his best girl! Kazuto had demanded to know how it happened, and the queen had pulled over the same captain who drove him back to the castle. Apparently she hadn't run away, she'd been kidnapped.
The idea made him furious.
Some guy was trying to NTR him?
He'd almost run off at that very instant to rescue his hime, but the queen made him wait.
Neale had arrived a few minutes later and said the same fucking guy stole Kazuto's catgirl!
This guy must have a death wish.
Neale was a great guy. Despite not even being affected by any of this directly, he had a thingy with him—a pair of rods connected in a plus-shape with markers along each one—which he'd enchanted to track the asshole who stole Kazuto's girls.
Kazuto hadn't even questioned why Neale showed up. He was just a great guy. Maybe a little creepy sometimes, but he was just a regular NPC who managed the auction house, and Kazuto wasn't going to hold anything against him.
The Great Hero Normannus had set out on his hunt right away, not even taking up Jeanette-chan's offer to help lighten his load before he left. She'd always been kind of petty when she was blowing him—claiming she was saving that for marriage—asking whether she was better than her sister and whether he'd rather have her instead.
Of course he wouldn't. Why would he dump Ise-chan, who had bigger tits and a prettier face, for Jeanette-chan, who seemed happy enough to give him "secret" blowjobs and try to steal him away from her little sister? Reverse-NTR was one of Kazuto's favorite hentai genres.
----------------------------------------
But now Kazuto had been running forever.
I should've taken up Jeanette-chan's offer. This has to be the longest I've gone without banging a girl since I got here.
He'd had the same thought many times by now. In fact, he'd almost turned back shortly after exiting the castle to take her up on it. But that wasn't what a hero was supposed to do.
Kazuto was definitely a hero. He even had his own cheat-like ability.
Every two minutes, he got a stat point to allocate.
It didn't matter what he was doing at the time or what he'd spent the two minutes doing. On a precise two minute interval, Kazuto received a single stat point.
This was, of course, independent of whatever gains he made in the course of his normal level-ups, allowing him to always be massively overpowered—just as an isekai hero should be!
By the end of his first six-day week in Eden, Kazuto was stronger than all but the most elite of the castle guards and kingdom's soldiers.
At the end of his first thirty-day month, he had very nearly reached their level.
By the end of his first year, Kazuto felt like he should be called a superhero. He could jump over the city walls with ease, run faster than airplanes could fly, and swing his giant magic sword so fast it created a blade of air, just like it should.
The thought of his sword brought a frown to his face. Can't believe I fucking lost it in that stupid wave. It looked just like Guts's sword. That thought caused him to frown even more deeply. Only downside of getting isekai'd is I won't be able to read the last chapter. It was supposed to come out the month after. Ah, well. Maybe Lucia-sama can summon me a copy when I ask her to get me a new sword. Not that I really need a weapon at this point. There's no hostile players I need to worry about, and all the NPCs are way too weak.
There were a lot of NPCs on Eden. Kazuto had amused himself early on by claiming the term to be an acronym related to his new name, but the truth was that the NPCs didn't even know they were NPCs. He'd asked—subtly, of course—whether any of them knew about stats, or skills, or systems, but they'd all given him the same confused look.
Kazuto had spent considerable time thinking about all of those things since he arrived. He'd known he needed to have the best, most optimized build possible, so he'd put lot of consideration into it. He might only be eighteen—twenty now in real years with how long years on Eden were and how oddly slowly everyone seemed to age to match those years—but he'd played his fair share of games, and minmaxing wasn't a new concept to him.
"Status," he called as he ran.
The comforting blue status window appeared before him.
Name: Normannus Title: Hero Level: 127 Next Level XP: 20 Health: 1,768,510 Strength: 200,412 Agility: 300,554 Stamina: 230,560 Intelligence: 254 Wisdom: 201 Luck: 177 Unused Points: 102
Kazuto dumped all his unallocated points into stamina, dismissed the window, and then smirked. Being strong was great, but only to a point. Being fast was way better, and being durable was also better. He didn't want to die, after all. He only got one shot at this.
He'd asked.
Plus, it turned out that the stamina stat helped him last longer and satisfy his harem, so obviously he was going to put points into that. He was a hero, after all.
The marker on Kazuto's magical tracking thingy moved, and he veered to the left, following the indicator. It reminded him a lot of the guideposts in the city, now that he realized it. He'd thought they were stupid at first, but now he saw the logic in them, and he thought they were actually pretty smart, just like a lot of things in this world.
Including him, obviously.
He'd find this Carl asshole who thought he could NTR a hero, and he'd make him pay.
He just hoped he wasn't too late. Ise-chan was hot, after all. Obviously the guy who kidnapped her would only have that on his mind, and Kazuto grimaced when he considered the possibility that his Ise-chan might be used goods by now.
