Chapter 1: Welcome to Another World,
My name is Belly Martin. I am 17 years old, a high school student, and my life sucks. Bad luck is my constant companion, like that one creepy guy who breathes too close to you on the subway.
People avoid me because they believe my luck is contagious. Even my dad abandoned me when I was five. He told me he was "going to buy milk," but instead, he left a letter:
"Son, I have met a young man named Goofy. He wants to become the King of Pirates. I must help him find the legendary Two Piece. Goodbye."
A legendary treasure that doesn't even exist.
At first, I thought it was a joke. Then, I saw a newspaper article: "Mysterious Man Joins Strange Kid on a Boat, Claims He is Helping Him Achieve His Dream."
I was abandoned… for a pirate LARP.
I never hated my dad, though. After all, I heard Goofy is an idiot, so I know my father is suffering.
Now, I have no friends, no girlfriend, and people run at the mere mention of my name. I am so unlucky that when I applied for a part-time job, the store burned down before my interview. The police thought I was some kind of walking disaster and asked me to "please stay at least 100 meters away from all government buildings."
So, I just sat in my room, drinking cheap tea, reading manga, and mumbling to myself.
"Man, I wish I could get isekai'd like those protagonists… You know, get hit by Truck-kun and sent to a fantasy world with OP powers—"

VROOOOOOOOOOOM.
I turned my head.
A truck was flying straight at me.
FLYING.
"…What."
The truck honked. In mid-air.
"EXCUSE ME?!"
BOOOOOOM.

WELCOME TO ANOTHER WORLD, YOU UNLUCKY BASTARD
Leon’s first thought when he woke up was:
Wow, the afterlife smells expensive.
His second thought was:
OW, MY F*ING FACE.
"Wake up, you disgraceful filth!"
A sharp slap rocked his cheek.
Leon’s eyes flew open.
A silver-haired girl with a very obvious tsundere energy was glaring at him.
"You disgusting worm!" she spat.
Leon blinked. "…Huh?"
"Don’t act dumb!"
She turned and pointed dramatically.
Leon followed her finger.
A crowd of fancy NPC-looking people stood around him, their faces twisted in disgust.
His brain restarted.
Stone streets. Old buildings. Weird clothes.
He had seen this place before.
No. No no no.
This was a game.
A stupid fantasy RPG he played once.
The same game he rage-quit after 20 minutes because it was too hard.
Leon’s soul left his body.
He squeezed his eyes shut. Took a deep breath.
Then muttered, "God, I know you hate me. But WHY LIKE THIS?!"
A notification appeared in his vision.
[New Skill Unlocked: Reality Betrayal]
"Congratulations! The universe has officially abandoned you!"
"WHAT KIND OF USELESS SKILL IS THIS?!"
The tsundere girl slapped him again.
"Stop yelling! You are in the presence of Lady Eleanor of the Holy Kingdom!"
Leon stared at her.
Then the 4th wall shattered.
A text box popped up.
[Character Introduction: Eleanor] A silver-haired noble girl. The "main heroine." Probably a tsundere. Has a tragic backstory. You skipped it.
Leon’s eye twitched.
"This is an RPG, isn’t it?"
Eleanor scoffed. "Of course not, peasant."
Another text box popped up.
[Tutorial Tip: She’s Lying.]
Leon’s fist clenched.
Then he looked at the sky.
"AUTHOR! I KNOW YOU’RE WATCHING! WHAT THE F*** ARE YOU PLANNING FOR ME?!"
Somewhere in another dimension, the author took a sip of tea.
And smirked.
