"ENOUGH OF THIS CHARADE. LAY BARE YOUR TRUE FEELINGS." On the surface, the Kingdom of Blau is a utopia, prospering under the protection of Archbishop Elton, the first goblin to hold a position usually reserved for elves. Yet a secret tragic history has corrupted Elton's heart, and the prosperity of Blau is only a veneer that hides the rot beneath. Every single otherworlder within its borders has been imprisoned by his command. Yet when a certain suicidal literary legend arrives in town, the rage of this fallen priest will inspire him to craft a story unlike any he's written before...

"LO AND BEHOLD, THE BURDEN OF SAVING THE WORLD IS BEING THRUST UPON ME ONCE AGAIN..." After parting ways with his soulmate Sacchan, Sensei is left heartbroken and bereft of purpose. The gloomy, suicidal adventurer soon wanders alone into the frightening trials of the Fairy Queen. Only one other person has successfully completed those trials--but Sensei has a unique gift for surviving what would kill anyone else. A whole new continent waits beyond, where a kingdom that seems perfect from the outside hides secret trouble beneath the surface...

"The otherworldly visitor named Sensei is a strange fellow. More in love with his melancholy than any thought of saving the world, he nonetheless finds adventure wherever he goes. His latest encounter is with Yuriko, the Fallen Angel of Greed, who has descended upon the dwarven kingdom of Gelb. She was once an earnest otherworlder who hoped to bring peace to the world, but now, her heart has been consumed by darkness. As a sorrowful battle rages, Sensei weaves the truth together into a new story..."--

"A BROKEN MAN? I WOULD WELCOME SUCH AN OUTCOME." Together, heroes summoned from another world defeated the dreaded Dark Lord-but those very same heroes have become an even greater peril. They've made the world into their playground, using their skills and powers for personal gain. But the melancholy author known as "Sensei" is different. He alone has the power to send his fellow otherworlders back home to Earth. Trouble is, he's an unreliable, unpredictable, and deeply moody fellow with absolutely zero sense of self-preservation. When his party encounters a town with an exploitative casino, Sensei develops a fascination with a woman unjustly vilified as a "witch." Holding pen in hand, he spins the tale of a complex world where not all things are black and white.

"Sensei doesn't exactly fit the normal mold for an otherworldly hero: Moody, quirky, and weirdly comfortable with death, he seems much more interested in finding inspiration for a new novel than in doing anything adventurous. Yet when the fallen hero Kaibara the Glutton terrorizes Princess Matilda, Sensei can feel the seeds of an intriguing story starting to take root. Even in the face of overwhelming power, perhaps his pen really is mightier than the sword!"--Provided by publisher.

"When the Dark Lord perished, everyone thought an age of peace was at hand, but the otherworldly heroes who defeated him wound up being an even bigger problem. With their quest completed, they're running wild, using their fantastical powers for personal gain. The newest otherworlder, though, is a little different from the others. He has no skills, no ambitions, and frankly, the way he keeps trying to get himself killed all the time is a little worrying. Yet perhaps the exact thing that will change this world isn't another hero...but a simple author."--Back cover

A second life in another world with cute girls by your side and video gamey powers--sounds like a dream, right? Not so for a certain melancholy author, who would quite literally rather drop dead. Honestly, all the fantastical adventure is just getting in the way of his poetic dream of finding his perfect place to die. But no matter how much he risks his hide, everything seems to keep turning out okay. Will our terminally depressed hero find a new lease on life in this cheerfully bleak isekai comedy?"--Back cover
