Why am I in a meadow? Why was I lying in a meadow? Where am I? Itâs a big mess.
My cell phone is⊠no, I donât have anything⊠Why, you ask?
As for myself⊠Iâm Wataru Toyomi, 20 years old, a light otaku, likes anime and manga, medium build, average looking, a university student that you can find plenty out there.
I can remember things about myself, and Iâm not suffering from amnesia. Letâs see if I can trace back as far as I can.
Yesterday, I had a drink with my college friends, you know? We ate and drank as much as we could at a pub⊠and then went to karaoke and had a great time until early in the morning. After that⊠then we split up⊠and walked home⊠and I fell into the sea.
Yes, I was pleasantly walking along the seaside road and got tired and sat on the guardrail to rest⊠I staggered and fell into the sea!
âWhy would I be in the meadow if I fell into the sea?â
I donât remember crawling out of the sea by myself⊠Did someone help me? âŠHelped me and left me in the meadow? I donât get itâŠ
I donât know what it means, but I canât stay here. I have to move. I donât even know which direction to go, but if I keep walking, Iâll find a road, right?
Hmm? I heard rustling sounds, so I checked and saw a rabbit coming out of the bushes⊠Why does a rabbit have a horn on its head?
âWhoa.â
As I was escaping from reality, the rabbit jumped at me. I couldnât avoid it, and the horn grazed my arm. As I was scared of the pain and bleeding, the rabbit with a horn jumped at me again. Not knowing what to do, I started to run away.
I ran to my limit and fell down on the grass. Had I escaped? I wanted to think it was a dream, but I was running out of breath, and my arm, cut by the horn and bleeding, was telling me that it was real.
âHaha, maybe this is a fantasy world. Rabbit with a horn often appears in novels, donât they? Could it be that I have gone crazy?â
While confused, I recall a certain wordâŠ
âStatus.â
A translucent screen appeared in front of me in response to the word status, which I said half-jokingly.
âHaha, there it is, the status screen.â

Looking at the status screen in front of me, I felt a desire to escape reality but also an indescribable sense of excitement, perhaps due to my otaku nature.
âHmm?â
There is a blinking beep in the lower right corner of the screen. Is it a⊠message? I tried to touch it, but my finger slipped through the screen.
âIn this case, if I look at the light novel and think strongly⊠open⊠Whoa, light novel is really amazing.â
The message that opened wasâŠ
âNice to meet you, Wataru Toyomi-kun.
You have fallen between worlds and wandered into this world. Unfortunately, I cannot return you to your original world. I canât interfere too much, but I know how difficult it is, so Iâve given you two things: language comprehension and ship summoning.
Language comprehension is a skill that allows you to read and write all languages. As for the ship summoning, I chose it because you seem to have fallen from the sea, and your name sounds like it.
I cannot interfere in any way from now on, so please enjoy this world.
PS.
There have been several people who have wandered into this world, and some have been badly hurt in their search for useful knowledge. It is better to keep your otherworldliness to yourself.â
âIs this really another world? And I canât go back? It seems like something like that, so it was chosen because it seems suitable, huhâŠ?â
âŠ..
âEven though this is a meadow, summon the shipâŠâ
This was the moment I understood that I had wandered into another world.
