Confronted by the god of this unfamiliar realm, he is offered a selection of cheat skills to aid him, but there's a condition – they are claimed on a first-come, first-served basis, and his classmates have already made their choices. Haruka must make the best of his situation as he traverses this new world, all by himself.
