Eighteen-year-old Oliver Shaw is just your average, introverted high school student. No friends, no presence, no future. His life of quiet classroom corners and late-night games is turned upside down when his entire class is suddenly summoned to a fantasy world.

There, they're hailed as heroes — champions chosen by the Goddess to defeat the Demon King and save the world from destruction.

But while his classmates awaken powerful combat skills and legendary classes, Oliver is given… Linguist.
An F-rank support skill with no combat abilities and no future. Just a single line of description: "Can understand any language."

Mocked, ignored, and ultimately cast aside, Oliver finds himself abandoned at the edge of death.

But in the silence where others hear nothing… he begins to hear everything.

Now, in a world shaped by words and magic, the boy they left behind may hold the one skill that can break it all.

Afternoon sunlight spilled through the window, painting golden streaks across the wooden floor. The faint scraping of metal echoed in the quiet room as Oliver carefully etched glowing symbols along the blade's surface. His hands moved with precision, the lines steady and deliberate — each rune stroke faintly pulsing before fading into the metal.


Isolde stepped in, her usual composed grace filling the room. "New weapon?" she asked, crossing her arms. Her tone was light, but her crimson eyes flickered with curiosity. "Don't tell me you already mastered the fire rune I taught you?"


Oliver looked up, brushing away a strand of hair from his forehead. "Ah, yeah. I've been practicing since morning. The sword from before isn't holding up anymore, so I thought I'd make a new one. Something I can rely on for tomorrow's mission."
