With Garbage by his side, Iarumas ventures deeper, scouring the dungeon for clues to his past, avoiding monsters, traps, and the inevitability of a permanent ashen demise.

After being resurrected without memories of his past, Iarumas spends his days dungeon diving for corpses. When he finds a feral girl named Garbage, the pair adventure deep into the dungeon, seeking unexplored depths and clues to his lost identity.

Name’s Inori Takafuji. I’m not really much of a “go-getter,” if you catch my drift—sleep’s more my style—but getting summoned to another world kinda messed things up. Bit hard to chill when you’ve got a king in your face telling you there’s a bad guy you’ve gotta go slay or whatever, you know? Plot twist, though—it’s actually not so bad. Getting the hero treatment sounds pretty nice, right?

But then it happens again! Some other clown summons me, I get my obligatory superpower, and off I go. And sure, that’s fine. It happens, sometimes you get isekai’d to the wrong place. But then it happens AGAIN! Someone ELSE summons me, I get ANOTHER superpower, and then I’m somewhere totally new. Repeat ad nauseam.

All right, goddess, where to next? And lemme just say this—the next time I get summoned better be my last, because I am so over this!

Inori Takafuji doesn’t care for much of anything that doesn’t immediately concern himself. So when he gets summoned to another world for the first time, it’s more a mild inconvenience than anything. But then it happens again. And again. And again...

Powerful gods rule this strange new land of magic and monsters, and every newcomer is blessed with strong stats and unique skills. Well, not quite.

With the help of Noah's blessings and a divine weapon, Makoto seeks to become strong enough to rescue his goddess from the dungeon where she’s been trapped. By training hard and using his weak skills in unorthodox ways, Makoto proves that, even when playing on hardcore difficulty, an RPG player always makes it to the end!

Hardcore RPG player Makoto Takatsuki is transported to another world and given new abilities—unfortunately, his skills and stats are pathetic... Alongside a cute goddess with zero believers, Makoto begins his life as an adventurer on hard mode!
