Chapter 1 The Disappointing Hero Returns
Hello, this is new project... I hope you like it
My strike became the turning point, leading to the destruction of the Demon Lord.
"Well done... hero from another world"
The Demon Lord praised, and I shrugged my shoulders.
"I apologize, there's no grudge, but I can't send you back to your original world unless I defeat you."
A year ago, I was suddenly summoned to this world by a goddess and given the ridiculous task of defeating the Demon Lord.
Well, from her perspective, maybe it was more like a polite request? But if I don't do it, I can't go back, so it's practically the same as being forced to obey.
"Heh... so the longing for home has brought forth a power surpassing me."
"No, I don't think it's that great."
"Well, never mind. This will be my final gift before I perish."
What is it? Sour grapes? The howl of a defeated dog?
Well, whatever. I can be generous when I know I'll be able to go back soon.
"Well, I'll listen to your last words."
"Hmm... You've got a bad personality, don't you?"
"Shut up. If you have something to say, spit it out."
"I don't have anything to say... but here it is."
The moment the Demon Lord reached out, his senses flowed into me.
"Ouch! What the hell are you doing?"
"It's a skill called 'Shared Sensation.' I'll give it to you."
*Ping!*
(Obtained the skill 'Shared Sensation.')
"I don't really care."
"Don't say that... It's a warning. I drowned in power, caught the attention of the goddess, and met my demise... You should never forget that excessive power can lead to your own destruction. Understand the thoughts of the weak with this."
Shut up.
Giving me a sermon on your deathbed.
"Well, maybe you're right. Don't worry, I'll live modestly in my original world!"
"Yes, that's... good... but... don't forget, when you're consumed by power, that's when you... walk the same path as me..."
With those final words, the Demon Lord turned to ashes.
Well, I don't really have the right to be lectured by this guy, but what he's saying is correct, so be careful.
Now, the goddess appeared as if to replace the Demon Lord, taking the will or advice seriously.
Although she looks like a lewd woman wearing only a thin dress, she seems to be an important person who manages this world.
"Hero from another world, Higashimura Tadayuki, thank you for defeating the Demon Lord."
"Oh, I really did my best! So please send me back to my original world!"
"Yes. The energy that is born when the Demon Lord is defeated... that was necessary for your return."
"Well then, please hurry!"
"I understand... then."
When the goddess waved her hand, my body was enveloped in light.
It's the same light as when I was summoned here.
Finally, I can go back... but before that.
"Goddess, I won't be summoned again, right?"
"Yes, summoning is only once... even if this world faces another crisis, it will be someone else who is summoned."
Hehehe.
That's what I wanted to hear.
Well then, let's put the plan into action.
"Goddess... before I completely disappears, there is something I want to tell you..."
"...What is it?"
"Please come over here."
"Yes."
The goddess approached without suspicion.
And in the moment before I disappeared...
*Squish*
I grabbed the goddess's chest with both hands.
"W-What, what, what, what are you doing..."
Ignoring the flustered goddess, I continued to grope her.
The goddess slapped my hand and covered her chest, her face turning bright red.
Hah, it's too late now.
I thoroughly enjoyed myself!
"I've always wanted to touch that lewd body of yours! Hahaha! I won't be satisfied without a reward like this!"
"You, you pervert! Wait!"
"Goodbye, goddess-chan! Bye-bye!"
And so, I fulfilled my given mission and returned.
When I came to my senses, I was in my room.
It seems like I have returned.
Since my PC screen was still on, I checked the date and it seems to be the day I was summoned over there.
When I look in the mirror, it's the same as when I defeated the Demon Lord.
No, what should I do with this armor?
The sword and everything, isn't this a clear violation of the Firearms and Swords Control Law?
In the first place, was it okay to bring back legendary weapons like this?
Well, whatever.
It's those guys over there who will be in trouble if something happens.
However, although I'm glad I was able to come back to the day I was summoned, it means that a year has passed for me.
Seriously, that goddess, she should take care of that too, you half-assed goddess.
Because of spending my days fighting in another world, the reflection in the mirror of me has become a handsome face, different from the slightly chubby one a year ago.
Hmm, this isn't bad either.
But what should I do when I go to work...?
"Well, I'll think about that later, I have to do it right away..."
I look around nervously, searching for what I need.
Even though a year has passed, I found it right away.
Tissues.
"Hahaha! Goddess! While the feeling of you is still on my hands, I'll dirty it up with my delusions! You bastard!"
I eagerly take off the armor.
Still, this is a hassle, huh.
Reluctantly, I began removing each piece of armor...
*Buzz, buzz, buzz*
My phone buzzed. It seemed like I received a notification.
I paused the process of removing my armor and unlocked my phone... Ah, this feeling is nostalgic.
It seems I received a reply on social media. The content of the reply is...
[Wow, you're really getting worked up, lol.
So lame, haha.
Your face is all red.]
That's what it said.
Oh, right. When I was summoned, I was in the middle of an online argument. It was a year ago, so I had forgotten about it. Who would have thought that I would end up fighting the Demon Lord after casually chatting on my phone? You never know what life has in store for you.
If I trace back the conversation, it started when I replied to my favorite illustrator with "Today is also the best!" and they unilaterally labeled me as a virgin, saying "Getting excited over this kind of artwork, are you still a virgin? lol." When I tried to argue back, they started trolling me.
Hmph, how ridiculous.
At the time, it made me angry, but it's just a memory from a year ago. I can't sustain such pointless anger. It's a waste of time dealing with someone like that, so I'll just ignore them. Those who engage with trolls are trolls themselves, after all.
Somehow, I started to feel indifferent, so I took off my armor and decided to fill the bathtub with hot water and soak in it.
Oh, in the other world, bathing was the main thing, but baths are still great. It feels like the essence of Japan, as if the fatigue from the other world is being drained from my body.
But then, I've returned, huh? The realization hit me.
After getting out of the bath, my body feels warm. And... my anger is also burning hot!
"This damn bastard, they just had to provoke me when I came back! I was in such a good mood after touching the goddess's breasts!"
Hey, this bastard! I'm the hero, you know? Can you say the same thing to my face? Huh?
"Damn it, I really want to find this guy! Ah, damn, damn, damn..."
As I was spewing curses...
*Ping!*
A familiar sound echoed in my mind. This is...
(Skill [Appraisal] has evolved into [Personal Information Disclosure] to adapt to this world.)
Oh, I knew it! That sound is the level up sound of a skill!
For the note, skills are the general term for special abilities such as magic and special moves in another world. And that sound I heard earlier, the 'ping' sound, is the sound that resonates in my mind when acquiring or leveling up a skill.
Moreover... it's a disclosure of personal information?
I opened the profile of the account that came to provoke me, 'Gentle Manta (Yawarakamanta).'
===
Followers: 66, Following: 3.
Anime icon.
===
Well, it's not an uncommon account.
"For now, let's try it out... 'Personal information disclosure!'"
As I chanted, a status window familiar from another world appeared.
There, it contained what seemed to be personal information of 'Gentle Manta (Yawarakamanta).'

[Crime] Force a Godly Illustrator to quit [Tap for details]

Wow, so detailed!
Wait, looking at the special notes... he's also... no, he's a virgin too!
And judging from his family composition, he's what they call a "kodomobeya ojisan." (T/N: a middle-aged man who continues to live in the child's room of his parents' house.)
Hehehe, at this point, it feels like victory.
Even though he's wrapped in the armor of the internet, he's completely exposed right now.
The other person doesn't know anything about me, but I know about him... this is what they call peace of mind, huh?
The one who controls information controls the battle.
It's getting exciting!!!
——And here, I found an interesting thing.
The bottom one... [Charge]?
And it says "Force a Godly Illustrator to quit."
This thing struck a chord with me.
I follow various illustrators, but among them, the one who draws my favorite art by far is "Melina."
Although Melina-san doesn't have many followers, only 1260, their art resonates with my preferences, and I always look forward to it.
Regardless of what anyone says, for me, the godly artist is Melina-san.
However, recently, they have stopped posting due to the persistent harassment from antis. Could it be... Is this also his doing? To confirm the truth, I press the 'Details' button next to the 'Crime.' And in that moment...
*Ping!*
([Shared Sensation] has evolved, and [Reliving] has become possible.)
Images start flowing into my mind.
Hello, we have a new project about someone who has returned from an isekai. The main character is a hero who has defeated the Demon Lord.
