Overview
Unaware of what happened just now, Natsuki Subaru finds himself being summoned to a new and mysterious world. There, in the Kingdom of Lugnica, he believes that he is the protagonist, the hero to-be. However, that isn't the case. He soon finds himself being beaten by thugs, but is saved. A beautiful, graceful maiden with amethyst eyes and silver-hair helps him out. Thus, he decides to help this girl with recovering her stolen insignia she is looking for.

However, as they continue, he ends up being murdered by someone, but returns from his death to a certain moment in time he had been in, and decides to use this ability to save the girl from her predestined death.
