The OP Background Character just wants a Quiet Life
After a death as underwhelming as his life--involving a banana peel and stray marble--Kenji Tanaka is reborn into a fantasy RPG world. To his delight, he finds himself as "Bob," a literal background character with a scripted fate to die early in a bandit attack. To Kenji, this is the perfect setup for a peaceful, unremarkable afterlife.
His joy is short-lived when a flustered celestial bureaucrat reveals a cosmic clerical error: Bob has been accidentally gifted the Seven Ultimate Skills meant for the prophesied Hero. Now, he possesses power that can reshape reality itself--from infinite inventory and instant Transmission to abilities that make him undetectable and all-knowing.
The catch? The actual Hero is a fumbling, hopeless pretty boy who can barely hold a sword.
Armed with enough power to solo the Demon Lord before lunch, Bob makes a new destiny: he will use his god-like abilities to ensure his own early retirement. He'll manipulate stock markets from the shadows, build a hidden mansion with his infinite inventory, and use his ultimate stealth to avoid all drama. But when the war he's ignoring starts threatening his favorite bakery and the few simple comforts he's come to love, this background character might have to step out of the shadows--just for a moment--and show the world what true power really looks like.
