## PLOT:

Yeah i decided to summarise every single chapter onto one wiki page, but then ran out of time and now have to catch up on doing this. Sue me 😤😤😤😤

### Ch 1

**Chapter one:**

Liz finds himself in a world that is almost his, but the currency is different and there are strange people in wierd armour just vibing around the place. He decides to be chill about the whole isekai thing and treats it like a holiday. He meets Judge and then hires Gil to be his bodyguard/tourguide/chaperone for one month. Gil was joking about the last one, but jokes on him he has to do it anyway.

**Chapter two:**

Liz changes into slightly less fancy clothes, signs up to become an adventurer at the guild, headpats Studd, and then runs away to buy a whole bookstore. #Goals.

**Chapter three:**

Gil takes Liz out to do his first quest as an adventurer: kill 10 speedy rats. Lizel whips out a magic rifle and does it ez, and then gives Gil a heart attack by shooting himself. Some guy tries to recruit Gil into his guild, but he does so very violently and homophobically. Liz proceeds to claim Gil as his property, and the chapter ends with said property considering how strange it is that he likes that idea.

**Chapter four:**

Lizel accepts a quest that is to get an item from a labyrinth, and finds two well made teddy bears in treasure chests. On the way out of the Guild building he sees some young adventurers struggling with a riddle for a different labyrinth, and gives them a clue. Later the lil adventurers come to see him and ask him for more aid, and lizel agrees on the condition of a 50/50 split of the rewards. At first Aign is like wtf thats way too much but then Lizel points out that he and Gil could clear the labyrinth right away if he wanted to, and Aign is like oh yh mb lmao ok deal.

### Ch 5:

**Chapter five:**

Aign bursts into Lizel's room early in the morning asking for help with the next stage of the labyrinth, but Liz is not a morning person and thus is half asleep. Despite this he solves the puzzle ez and gives Ain a headpat. Gil is just like yh he does that dont mind him. Once Lizel actually is awake they head to the guild where Studd informs them that the Client from last time wishes to see them. The client is Viscount Ray and upon entering the meeting room he mistakes Liz for another cilent, which, understandable. He then expresses his interest in Liz, and invites him to visit his mansion at some time.

Later Liz and Gil are back at the inn and are discussing the contract which is now technically over. Liz pays Gil his money and then tries to dump him, which upsets Gil, who then acts not very hetero. Long story short they are now partners, sorry, *party members* , and they also hold hands a bit.

**Chapter six:**

Ray invites Liz and Gil to his mansion, where he shows off his painting collection (which includes one of Gil) and then gives Lizel a letter to give to a noble in Merkaid/Marcade/however your translator spells it. Judge asks Liz to escort him to merkaid as he is also going, then proceeds to blush furiously and pine a lot as soon as Liz leaves the room. If anyone thinks that boi is straight then I ask them to read the manga once again.

Studd offers to share his rare break time with Liz, after making sure that Lizel isnt moving away and is just visitng to marcade. In the cafe (its definately a date in Studd's eyes) some twats decide to bother Lizel cos they are jealous of him being in a party with the famous One Slash, but then Studd straight up freezes their arm and threatens to kill them so they back off pretty quick.

**Chapter seven:**

   Gang (Judge Gil and Liz) go on a trip in their fav rocket ship to mercade, and judge shudders at the thought of treating Liz like a pleb so theyre in a bougie carriage. They were hired as like bodyguards tho so when some hyenas show up Liz shoots them after Gil yeets him on the roof. Its badass pew pew time!!! (liz is very cool)

oh whats this? tHERE WAS ONLY ONE BED????? in the carriage??? im telling you this chapter has so much fluff please read it. Liz displays his not being a morning person and bookworm once again.

Bam bum buuuum theyre in the new city woooo theres a mysterious owner of the city wooooooo hes very talented but no one has seen him in pubilc oooooo??? Gil and Liz leave Judge to try and have a mini date but some pleb accosts them with a sword swearing he will kill liz? Find out what happens next, in two lines below!!

**Chapter eight:**

Gil resists the urge to murder a bitch and Liz politely tells said bitch hes a bitch and hes got the wrong person. Noble aura liz strikes again. Liz then tracks down the person he was mistaken for and asks for person to buy him dinner. (damn liz, he doesnt even know your name yet and you ask him on a date??)

Said person asks to be called Shadow (not sus at all) and seems really repressed and emo ok not emo but like,,, angy. Liz is like oh btw i have a letter for you from Ray. The letter literally just says "do not piss him off" (referring to liz) and Shadow is like ??? is he dangerous??? how bad???

Shadow asks how and why liz aproached him and liz is like well since u own the place u know the best dinner spot also thanks for the free meal ok byeeee and leaves. Judge is super rich btw and this might be the first time Gil reads a book

**Chapter nine:**

A guy goes hey theres an auction please come and Liz's brain goes *books???? will there be books????* and ofc he wants to go but its in the evening so he spends the day waiting for it to start by visiting all the local bookshops. They turn up to the auction where liz laughs at a painting of Aign going the wrong way in a labyrinth (how the hell could he tell tho) before buying a BOOK HE BOUGHT ANOTHER HECCING BOOK THIS IS SO UNFAIR HOW COME HE GETS TO BUY SO MANY WHEN TOKYOPOP WONT EVEN RESTOCK THE MANGA FOR THIS SERIES OMGS >:((( Anyway this book is a map of a labyrinth made by the labyrinth so its 100% accurate. Shadows shadow spies report to him what liz has been doing all day and he despairs about the situation. me too shadow. me too. Welp. Liz and Gil have a cafe date here liz spots that a tiny little corridor on the book map isnt on the guild map. Bro must be a world champion at spot the difference games i swear thats the only difference and this thing has hundreds of pages.

    Liz and Gil must be soulmates (in case u werent already convinced) bcs where liz's brain goes *books???? books???* Gil's goes *strong enemy???? a good fight???* and he suses out that there must be a hidden boss in the hidden room u get to via the hidden corridor. (i mean, logical.)

Anyway another momentous occasion is gil SMILING AT LIZ AND ASKING FOR HIS HELP

### Ch 10

**Chapter ten:**

Time to search for the hidden room spotted last chapter!!! They find the spot, looks normal, and Gil kicks it down. Its like, a foot of solid crystal but he just kicks it down. Like, alright then??? Hes having fun tho thats all we care about. Theres a chest, with a map. Then a teleport circle. which teleports them into a like 3km drop???? with a fire breathing dragon at the bottom??? They have a really cute moment as they drop, honestly one of the best panels of all time. THEIR FACESSSSSSS *THE WAY HE HOLDS HIM!!! **THE TEAMWORK!!!!!!!!*** aaaaaaaaaaaaaa so cute so cute. they kill the dragon (obvs) and have another cute moment back at the inn.

**Chapter ten.five:**

Judge takes a nap on Lizel's lap. Lizel offers the other side to Gil. Gil refuses. (shame)

**Chapter eleven:**

Liz tells Gil hes actually a Duke/prime minister/ tutor to the king of his world. we then get to see the other worlds POV!!! From the moment Liz left, his secretary was all OH SHIT THE KINGDOMS *FUCKED* and went to find the King, who is very hot and very gay. Guess who for. yeah turns out Liz' earrings are magic trackers kind of and basically the king is low key freaking out but actually low key im not just saying that about Liz being possibly-dead-but-definately-not-existing-rn. some guy tells him that paralel worlds are a thing that might exist and he goes ok great im off to find him be back in 10 years sayonara~~

**Chapter twelve:**

    well firstly your eyes are ***BLESSED*** by a pic of sleepy liz, then a pic of shirtless gil???? omgs????? his waist????? help???? ANYWAY they go to the guild to update the map of the labyrinth they just found a secret hidden room in, yk the one with the 10000m drop and a massive dragon, that one. Trope where they calmly explain the impossible things they did as if nothing happened and the poor guild worker (layla) getting increasingly shook, and then Liz hands her a massive dragon scale as proof, and she is even more shook. Then she asks to see his guild card. His. E-rank. Guild card.

She recommends he ranks up.

*(Liz refuses as this isnt stud's one and said studd would probably cry if he knew liz went to another guild).*

Gil then PROCLAIMS HIS LOVE????? WHAT IS THIS CHAPTER???

We uh, we also meet Judge's grandpa Insigh. If you're into dilfs/gilfs youll like that.

**Chapter thirteen:**

Shadow has a bad feelng about smth. The duo rocks up to Insighs with Judge and Insigh is like yeah liz is a bit silly. Liz is like ehehe anyway appraise these dragon scales we got also please buy them and put them on sale so people actually believe theres a dragon in that one labyrinth from last chap bcs its low key kinda dangerous and we dont want ppl js rocking up and straight dying.

Insigh mourns the growing up of his son,,,, and blames Liz for it. (accurate)

Anyway liz just happened to have a detailed map of Marcades underground I found in a book and asked insigh to give it to shadow, cos hes like u prolly are close to him i read it in a book. Insigh is like lmao ok can i tell him its from you and liz is like i mean idm but itll prolly annoy shadow and insigh is like ok omw to give it to him rn- (not actually) and then immediately ships liz and gil.

The gang start to go home via carriage and theres a panel that looks a lot like liz and gil on a dinner date whilst judge is the waiter.

**Chapter fourteen:**

Theres a *prescence* (technicaly this was last chap but it was literally the last panel so im moving it here) while they are on night watch (they are camping remember). They get attacked by bandits called The Forky Gang TM but its funny cos gil and liz are too op for this. Ngl i think they just straight kill them all- (except for one). Judge is a spooked lil boy lil lad lil baby baby boi and has to hold liz's hand to eepy. Back at hometown they ask Studd abt the forky gang who upon realising they attacked liz attempts to get the guild to eradicate them. This is not the guilds job, and an abuse of power, so Liz stops him. After some coyl banter with gil, Lizel (*we shld call him Rizzel at this rate. i mean its the same in jp anyway- waiT IS THAT WHY HES CALLED THAT- (joking obvs*)) ranks up to *duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duuhhhhhhn* . D rank!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉wooooo so to celebrate he invites Gil out on a date. (to drink.)

Snake boy eleven 11 asks to join their party, citing his good points. Liz kindly tells him he is unqualified. 11 is undeterred and says he will be back. Studd is like,,, anyway ,,, can i go.,,,, drinking with you two..... if its ok... Liz then invites judge as well. Date ruined >:(

Liz mentions how he cant drink bcs he pulls a Lan Zhan upon doing so (blanks out at one sip, acts opposite to normal) and the three sillies ask if he becomes a manwhore (gil, why are you asking-), rude person (judge) or spoiled and needy (studd). The subject changes. The two littlies get a bit d r u n k shall we say and judge is all hahahaaa i got to eepy next to liz :)))))) and studd is like. liz. can i sleep with u tongiht. in a bed. and proceeds to conk out. Until liz is like do u want gil to carry u that is. then he musters the willpower to sober-ify. They get attacked by someone on the way home but Studd ice-s the arrow and also kills the attacker before liz can even realise whats happening. Cue sick panel of studd in front of the moon.

### Ch 15

**Chapter fifteen:**

So abt studd killing a person- turns out he was a child soldier. He tells liz abt how he was taken in by the guild leader and hasnt killed anyone in ages. The next panel is a bit of a wild shock ngl i want u to read this yourself LMAO its so funny. Studd attempts to remember what happened when he was drunk. hes like, i got drunk, thats fine... i killed someone... thats fine... ok cool nothing bad happened.

Eleven attempts to join the party, goes the same as last time, Liz takes up a weird request and gil is like dont drag me with you- but caves bcs studd is glaring icicles at him. The request is to provide magic for a troupe's show. They meet Ray who is like btw i had u meet shadow for his sake not yours lmao also glhf not dying to the bandits, im on it dw. liz is so chill abt it gil pities the assasins.

**Chapter fifteen.five:**

Random guy who hurt his leg hires people from the guild to deliver his goods. Normally these are newbie adventurers so imagine his shooketh when Lizel the Noble, sorry, E-rank adventurer shows up. Now imagine his face when THE single stroke also nonchalantly grabs some goods to carry. wild. these two are a hazard to society im telling you.

### Ch 20

Studd takes a break, shocks all his colleagues.

### Ch 30

Liz and co. finds a pair of bunny ears inside a Labyrinth. Liz proceeds to put it on, whoops, it’s cursed, now he can’t take it off. They then go to Judge for a curse removal item, after the curse is removed, Liz gifted the ears to Ray.
