Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill

Mukouda Tsuyoshi was nothing special in modern Japan… So when he was summoned to a world of swordplay and sorcery, he thought he was ready for the adventure of a lifetime. Too bad the kingdom that summoned him only got him by mistake! Not only was he not one of the three summoned heroes, but his stats were laughable compared to theirs. On top of that, there's something really sketchy about this kingdom… When he realizes the subjects are the kind of people who just use the hero, Mukouda immediately leaves to make his own way in this other world.

Mukouda Tsuyoshi-alias, 'Mukohda'-was an ordinary Japanese salaryman until he was summoned to a fantasy world of swords and magic. Mukohda's unique skill made him the only person in this world with access to modern Japanese products, but the real reason he caught the attention of the legendary magic beast, Fenrir, was his ability to cook delicious food! Now with a ludicrously overpowered Fenrir and a baby slime in tow, Mukohda and friends continue their laid-back journey in search of easy-living in a new kingdom. In spite of his best efforts, it seems Mukohda can't help but get wrapped up in the adventurer lifestyle. Will this reluctant "hero" win fame, fortune, and fair maidens while he tries to fly under the radar? With food this good, he's bound to make new friends whether he likes it or not-much to the dismay of his number one fan, Ninrir, the goddess with a sweet tooth. Unfortunately for her, she isn't the only denizen of the divine realm to take notice of Mukohda's access to otherworld goods and sweets, and the other goddesses might have demands of their own!

Even though I don't want to go to the dungeon! Caught up in a "Hero Summoning," the hapless Mukohda was brought to another world from modern Japan, but he decided to make the most of it and enjoy a leisurely life of travel with his familiars, Fel and Sui. With new goddesses forcing blessings on him in exchange for offerings, and another familiar in the form of a peckish pixie dragon, Mukohda steadily amasses wealth and power. Finally, the cowardly hero (with a little "help" from his friends) has reached the city of Dolan, where he will challenge the city's dungeon, whether he wants to or not! But the challenges start before he sets foot inside the dungeon, such as getting accosted by a disappointment of a guildmaster, extorted for booze by some rather intense male gods, and splurging on an actual kitchen stove. For Mukohda, diligent preparation for dungeon diving begins with preparing enough meals to satisfy his voracious companions. Thus armed to battle his familiar's hunger, Mukohda's party sets its sights on glorious battle in the dungeon. With ridiculous skills and overpowered magic beasts on his side, does the dungeon even stand a chance…?!

A new power-the tenant "???" opens shop! Mukohda, the salaryman from modern Japan who was (accidentally) whisked away to another world via a "Hero Summoning" ritual, finally arrived at the dungeon city of Dolan. Pressured into challenging the dungeon by his familiars, the cowardly Mukohda survives waves of terrifying monsters, and thanks to his familiars' overwhelming might, they became the first party to conquer the dungeon! While the Adventurers and Merchants guilds fuss over the unexpected champions and the spoils of their victories, Mukohda, who managed to level up in the dungeon, is more astonished to find that his unique "Online Supermarket" skill has unexpectedly evolved. Now that a new power has been unlocked, amazingly, Mukohda is now able to buy cakes and ice cream directly through his new "Tenant!" Things are looking up for his familiars and the goddesses Ninrir and Rusalka, who are overjoyed at the new variety of sweets available to them. However, it seems that some gods may be conspiring to force Mukohda to keep leveling in order to unlock even more "Tenants" to satisfy their craving for otherworld goods . . .

Enjoy the bounty of the sea! Mukohda was brought to another world from modern Japan by falling victim to a "Hero Summoning." Though he managed to conquer a dungeon along with his three familiars, Fel, Sui, and Dora-chan, in the end they just went back to enjoying their carefree trip. After ordeals like suffering the envious gazes of new adventurers, and destroying an orc settlement, Mukohda finally arrives at the seaside town of Berléand. Now that they've come to the ocean, there is but one thing to do - fully enjoy their longtime goal, the bounty of the sea!! Mukohda's party samples all the ocean has to offer, from hunting krakens, to frying or grilling fresh seafood, smacking their lips in anticipation of a barbecue, or even just walking around the morning market and eating their fill. "But it can't all be fish, I can't just cut out meat completely, right?" So Mukohda thought . . . and then Fel and the others, on the hunt once again, found something outrageous-?!

A new dungeon, and a new meeting!? Mukohda, the salaryman who was brought from modern Japan to another world because he was caught in a "Hero Summoning," along with his familiars Fel, Sui, and Dora–chan, enjoyed their fill of seafood at the seaside town of Berléand. Finally, they set off for the dungeon city of Aveling, just as he promised Fel! But before that, Mukohda asks for information about the dungeon from the gods . . . and hearing that many undead wander the dungeon, Mukohda starts to get cold feet again. To get Mukohda into the dungeon, the gods come up with a spectacular gift. (All for a new Tenant in Mukohda's Online Supermarket . . . ) Reaching Aveling, Mukohda's party attempts to enter the dungeon with a veritable mountain of prepared food. However, a certain off–putting elf awaits Dora–chan! And even further into the dungeon, another wonderful meeting awaits our hero. . . !? The super–popular, absurd, otherworld adventure continues in the 6th volume!

With another dungeon behind them, Mukohda and party (and Elrand for some reason) take a well deserved rest to collect themselves before hitting the road again. And now, with many more levels, Mukohda has earned another new Tenant. But Mukohda doesn't have time to sit back and enjoy it, nor to nurse his freshly wounded heart-they're on the clock to ditch Elrand back in Dolan! Meanwhile, in the divine realm, the gods who have been mooching off Mukohda all this time may have met their match! And will Mukohda finally find something worthwhile to spend all of his money on . . ?

After conquering dungeons and finally getting some leverage over the gods ganging up on him, Mukohda sets his sights on the domestic life. With his new palatial manor fully staffed with trustworthy servants and guards, it seems like as good a time as any to focus on building up his long-neglected business of selling Japanese goods in this otherworld. But he's suddenly found himself in the sights of an unscrupulous competitor, backed by a shady lesser noble, who is after the secrets of his luxurious soaps and hair treatments. Without relying on the brute strength of his overpowered familiars, Mukohda's going to have to fight fire with fire and play politics himself. But in order to prove himself, he'll need to provide something truly valuable to grease the wheels with Earl Langridge. What happens when otherworld magic and the marvels of modern product engineering collide . . . ?
