High school senior Silas Bruer is at his last licks of patience with his terrible and painfully underwhelming life. He is pummeled at school, his girlfriend dumps him, and his piss-poor excuse of a father sends him out on an errand late at night that gets him a stalker on his tail. To make matters worse, the stalker has a vendetta against him, one that leaves Silas mutilated in an alleyway by a dumpster and a half-eaten pizza from Antonio's Pizza Parlor. Death by a mysterious skull-faced titan was inevitable but only temporary. When he wakes up again, he is isekai'd to a fantasy world.

After narrowly escaping a fight against a giant orc shaman, Silas must continue collecting the last two shard pieces of the broken dungeon core to prevent the goddess core from dying.
