Sensei is a writer who tried to commit double suicide with his lover but was summoned to another world as a hero instead. He has almost no fighting power, spends much of his journey lying in a coffin pulled by friends, and is always looking for a way to die. Because of his heavy use of sleeping pills, his body is full of poison, making him strangely hard to kill. He eventually awakens a unique skill that lets him affect the hearts of others through writing. Sensei’s dry outlook, strangely charming personality, and deep desire to die make him a truly one-of-a-kind hero in a world that doesn’t know what to make of him.
Sensei often travels lying in a coffin, letting others pull him along.
He is usually seen smoking, which makes him stand out as one of the last smokers in his world.
His exact physical features are not detailed, as most know him by his strange behaviors and his nickname, not his real name.
Sensei is a harsh realist and a pessimist, but he is also honest and romantic.
He has a strong wish for self-destruction and admits he often causes trouble for friends and family.
He seems like a hopeless person but somehow has an odd charm, making several women attracted to him.
Sensei often says things without holding back, making him hard to talk to, but he can see the truth behind people’s actions.
He doesn’t believe things like pain or shame automatically mean unhappiness and dislikes when others judge happiness or sadness for someone else.
Sensei does not reveal his real name. People called him "Sensei" even in his previous life.
On a rainy day, just when he was about to die together with his lover Sacchan, he was hit by a car and transferred to another world as a hero.
Even as a hero, he keeps searching for a place to die, hoping for the perfect ending—dying with Sacchan.
Lack of Skills
Sensei was summoned as a hero but seems to have no special “Gifted” powers.
He is not useful in fights and often stays on the sidelines, nearly powerless.
Poisoned Body Counter-Attack
Because he often overdosed on the drug "Calmotin" before coming to this world, his body is always filled with poison.
When monsters or enemies try to drain his life, they end up poisoned and die, like Death Tree and Suzuki's Great Wolf.
Sensei is strangely hard to kill, even at 1 HP, because his body is always poisoned.
Excitement Near Death
It is discovered that when Sensei faces death, his excitement causes his HP to heal quickly and automatically.
So, he’s at his strongest when he’s closest to dying.
Storyteller (Gifted Skill)
Sensei’s true Gifted skill is called "Storyteller."
It only works if he finds someone interesting and feels like writing about them, and if he has paper and pen.
With this skill, he writes a person’s story, makes them read it, and helps them become who they are meant to be.
It can solve deep problems in others, but Sensei can only use it if he’s interested and has prepared, and it does nothing against shallow people.
Calmotin ∞ (Eternal)
At some point, his empty Calmotin bottle is blessed by a mysterious being and becomes a magical item with unlimited uses.
This is Sensei’s lifeline, both for keeping his usual poisoned state and for calming his mind.
Closest to Sacchan, the lover with whom he tried to die before being summoned.
Sensei affects many people on his journey, some seeing him as a savior, others as a dangerous person.
Summoned to Another World
Sensei is summoned as a hero right at the moment of a double suicide with Sacchan.
He lands in a new world where everyone expects him to do heroic things.
Searching for Death
Unlike normal heroes, Sensei ignores glory and wants to die.
He spends most of his time lying in a coffin, looking for a way to end it all, but failing every time.
Poison Counterattacks
His constant state of poisoning ends up being a secret weapon.
Monsters like Death Tree and Suzuki’s Great Wolf attack him, but when they try to drain his life, they die from his toxins.
Discovering His True Power
At first, it seems Sensei has no Gifted skills.
Later, in battle with Suzuki, his "Storyteller" skill activates, letting him deeply affect the hearts of people he writes about—and sometimes save them from their own sorrows.
Changing People’s Lives
When he writes someone’s story, it reveals their true self.
One fallen hero returns to Earth for a new start; another, Tama, regains lost strength by facing his childhood dreams.
Sensei’s power is not about fighting, but about changing people from within.
Counter to Heroes
A church leader named Ysha guesses that Sensei was summoned as a direct counter to other heroes.
His powers work best against other summoned people who have lost their way.
Sensei tried to commit suicide five times in his original world.
He is based on a real-life famous writer.
He is one of the rare smoker characters in modern stories, standing out for this detail.
