Hi, my name is Rex Alexander. I just graduated from my first year of college, but I dropped out because I needed a job to pay off all my debt to my parents. Initially, I tried to get a part-time job, but it didn't work out because I wasn't earning enough money. After a job interview, I found myself walking in an unfamiliar place. Suddenly, my head hurt from an unfamiliar memory, and I realized my name was Satoru Mikami.
I'm a 37-year-old man without a girlfriend—I've never had one. At first, I thought it was just a dream because the name Satoru Mikami was familiar. I went home, thinking I was just tired. Despite being in an unfamiliar place, I felt at ease because of the memories I now had.
I wandered around to familiarize myself with the area. Afterward, I went home and slept, thinking it was just a dream. The next day, I had a dream just like in the canon.
Author's Note: Sorry for the lack of information.
Rex: So, it's not a dream. But what is that dream of mine? Now, Rimuru Tempest... Rimuru Tempest... Rimuru Tempest... I've heard that before. Oh, I'm stupid! I read this in a novel and watched it in an anime. Satoru Mikami, the overpowered slime that became a god.
And just like that, my life as Satoru Mikami began.
Author's Note: From now on, his name is Satoru. This is not permanent.
I got up, cleaned the house, took a shower, and brushed my teeth. I remembered:
Satoru: I remember I'm going to meet Tamura, and he's going to brag about his girlfriend to me.
I left my house to meet my friend—or rather, Satoru Mikami's friend. After walking for a while, I reached my destination and waited for my junior.
Tamura: Senpai, thank you for waiting.
Walking towards me with a smiling face was a refreshing young man, together with the beauty alongside him. Tamura, a junior at the same company, was with our renowned receptionist, Sawatari-san.
They asked me for advice on their upcoming marriage, which made me reflect on my own lack of romantic experience. Even in my previous life, I didn't have a girlfriend because of my debts.
Satoru: Yeah. So, what kind of advice are you looking for?
I greeted Sawatari-san.
Sawatari: Hello, pleased to meet you. My name is Sawatari Miho. Although we've seen each other before, this is the first time we're speaking. It makes me nervous.
I silently complained to myself about being nervous. I'm not good at speaking to girls.
Satoru: Hello. I am Mikami Satoru. No need to be nervous. Sawatari-san is famous among us, so I know who you are. Tamura and I went to the same university, so we've had lots to talk about and naturally hung out.
Sawatari: What's this about being famous? Are there weird rumors floating around?
Satoru: Yeah. Like having had an affair with Chief X or going on dates with Y-kun—things like that.
I teased a girl for the first time. My jokes lacked delicacy, and I often ended up saying the wrong thing.
Satoru: This is your fault, author-san.
Author: Why me? And don't just break the fourth wall.
Satoru: Oh, sorry, but you're too lazy to write conversations with other people.
Author: I'm not lazy; I'm just not used to talking to people.
Back to the story.
As if on cue, Tamura lightly tapped her shoulders.
Damn it, Tamura! You should explode in these situations!
Tamura: Senpai, please leave it at that! Miho, you're just being teased!
Tamura laughed and continued mediating the situation. Isn't he a lovable guy? Even though he's only 28, we've got something in common. I decided to give them my blessing.
Satoru: My bad. I'm just not good with women. The location doesn't help much, does it? Let's get something to eat and talk there.
**Girl:** Kyaaaaaaaa!
Screams. Confusion. A man brandishing a knife and holding a bag ran towards us.
Satoru: Tamura!
My body moved instinctively to save my junior.
*Don* I hit Tamura out of the way.
*Dosu* A burning pain in my back.
**Man with a knife:** Damn hindrance.
The man escaped. Tamura ran up to me, while Sawatari-san was stunned but uninjured. My back burned.

Satoru: Oh, voice of the world.

Satoru: Tamura... you're damn loud. It's not that big of a deal, right? Stop worrying...
Tamura: Senpai... the blood... you keep...
Tamura held me. Sawatari-san was too stunned. My vision was hazy. The burning sensation was gone, replaced by ferocious cold.

My dying brain cells remembered the truly important things: my PC hard drive!

Satoru in his mind: This is embarrassing, why me 😭😭😭

Tamura: Haha... that's so like Senpai...
Tamura smiled bitterly.
Tamura: You know, I wanted to show Sawatari off to you...
Satoru: Jeez. I've forgiven all of it, so make her happy, got it? And take care of the PC...
Satoru in his mind: This is embarrassing. My dignity in my previous life is destroyed.
Mikami Satoru died, his soul linking with a spawned monster in another world. Reborn as a monster in another world, Mikami Satoru's life continued.
To be continued...
