Mitsuru Kajikawa, 25, drifts through life with no particular goals, spending his days consumed by endless overtime.

After taking a nap in his car on his way home from overtime, he woke up in a forest.

He called for help, thinking he was stranded, but instead of a rescue, a monster appeared. What is this, terrifying!

After barely managing to repel it, almost at his own expense, he became convinced this was another world and checked his status. Even mere weaklings have skills, but he had none; all his stats were zero. No way!

But thanks to a game-like menu screen that gradually evolved, and the direct manipulation of magic—which proved more versatile than any skill—he was surprisingly fine.

In fact, he seems to be gradually acquiring an absurd level of strength. Wait, who needs skills? Isn't this just plain cheating?

His companions, too, are pulled along by his influence, growing unimaginably strong, and it seems they might actually live quite comfortably. In fact, his companions might even be more ridiculously powerful.

His immediate goal is to travel around, see various places, eat delicious food, and live happily. As for anyone who picks a fight or the Demon Lord's subordinates, he'll crush them mercilessly.

Such is this story.
