However, upon waking, they found themselves stranded in an unfamiliar otherworld, dressed as their game character. They were stunned by their current predicament: no items or money, apart from the strongest-class weapons and armor they had equipped. To make matters worse, the protagonist had arrived in this otherworld still in the skeletal human form of their 'Full Body Skeleton' special avatar, an appearance they had paid to acquire.

The protagonist resolves to live an inconspicuous life, but a chance encounter leads them to a Dark Elf named Ariane, and they end up accepting her request.
