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.

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! (Source: J-Novel Club)
