A 29-year-old young man whose real name is Ichiro Suzuki. He is a programmer who works for a game development subcontractor. The story basically progresses from his point of view. One day, when I woke up after taking a nap at work, I was in another world and my name was Satou, and I was 15 years younger. I was left in the wilderness at level 1 and chased by an army of lizard people around level 50, but thanks to the strongest magic "Meteor Shower" that can be used only 3 times at no cost, the lizard people's corps and the herd of dragons, and strongest He inadvertently killed the supposed Ryujin Akonkagura, the strongest strength of Lv310 (raised to Lv311 after the war with "Dog-head Demon King" in volume 13), huge treasure, source of "Dragon Valley" possessed by Ryujin. take control. After that, I will go on a trip with his friends for the purpose of sightseeing comfortably.

Appearance is 160 cm tall and slightly petite and delicate. In addition, he is often seen younger than his age because he has a baby face and thin body hair such as a beard. On the other hand, since his mental age remains the same as Arasa, acquaintances describe him as "strangely aged." He has a small-town personality and lacks ambition, for better or worse. Although he has general sensibilities such as not being good at grotesque things, he often causes insane phenomena because he has no common sense in other worlds and leaves it to his high ability value. He is a hard-working man who gets involved in major incidents wherever he goes, but relying on his cheat abilities, he leads every situation to a solution.

Although he owns many legendary weapons as loot from "Dragon Valley", he does not use those weapons in public, and usually uses the double-edged Buster Sword type pure Mithril magic sword "Fairy Sword Trazayuya". Perhaps due to the fact that their status raises their intellect, they understand that the magic chants of this world are similar to program codes, and can develop and improve magic on their own. He also enjoys making things by making use of his production skills and maxed dexterity.

He excels at searching and grasping situations using maps, but despite his high IQ, he often misses the point when it comes to deductions and predictions, and he himself is aware that he is not good at deductions. Because of his scientific way of thinking, he tends to give difficult explanations, and is not good at giving simple explanations that are easy for children to understand. Her naming sense is also subtle, and since Arisa often pokes her into it, she gave her name to some of her own unnamed weapons. The lack of naming sense seems to be a common feature of the whole family.

He is the type who likes older women with big breasts, and often goes to brothels. On the other hand, she is often favored by girls younger than her, but she takes the position of a guardian as she is not a romantic target for her teenage years. She and the high elf Aialise are in love with each other emotionally, but due to differences in race, Aialise has a certain distance from her side, and they haven't developed a deep relationship. I'm approaching without giving up, such as taking it and visiting the elf village.

He believes that he can't stand out by doing unnecessary things until his companions have enough strength to defend themselves, and in situations where he has to do his best, he uses his spy skills to disguise himself, and even more so. They also disguise their status in the exchange section of the "Menu". However, there is a side that is too overprotective, and he does not compromise on the transcendental equipment of his companions. and the silver skin fiber of a large monster fish to create a very strong one.

Until Volume 3, he traveled as a commoner calling himself a merchant, but in Volume 4 he was appointed an honorary chevalier by Baron Muno for rescuing the Muno territory from crisis, and the fictitious hero's name is "Pendragon." (The family crest is a dragon holding a pen like a spear.) After receiving the title, he began to demonstrate his cooking skills in front of the nobility, and became known as the "Miracle Cook". In the Kingdom of Lalagi, he was given the status of "Lord of Sake" by the king for presenting "Ryusenshu", and he was given the status of "Mr. It is said that in Oyugock Dukedom, thanks to Satou, relations between the nobles have improved and public order has improved, probably because he cooperates in the extermination of criminal organizations and subjugation of demons behind the scenes, but as for himself, I'm not aware of my influence because I'm doing it with the intention of getting the things and knowledge I want and not making enemies as much as possible. Also, as a merchant, investor, and owner of "Fude Spear Dragon Shokai", he has made a large profit from a trade that makes use of his connection with the royal family. Also known as "pirate hunter". Furthermore, in the labyrinth city, they run good-will soup kitchens and clean-up activities and privately establish a nursing home for street children and a school to train explorers. Also, as an explorer, he and his companions always survived unscathed, so he is called by the nickname "no damage". He was recognized by the kingdom for his many achievements and was promoted to a permanent viscount at the "Grand Audience Ceremony" at the beginning. While traveling around the western countries of the continent, he used the branches of the world tree to create a human-sized statue of God and became the patron of God.

More than half of Satou's setting in the real world is based on the real-life experiences of the author, Aishinahiro. In addition, Aishichi tries to make the character as thin as possible she says that she is most conscious of the part of "a life-sized ordinary person as much as possible.

Abilities [ ]

Unique skill (strictly speaking, it is displayed as "special ability") has 「Menu」, 「Unit Placement」, 「Unit Creation」, and 「Immortality」. However, immediately after the transfer, skills other than 「Menu」 were grayed out and could not be used. The "Menu" displays information similar to the AR display of the game in the field of view, and is highly versatile as it can comprehensively call up various functions such as maps, radar, storage, skills, magic, status, exchange, notepad, action log, etc.

[LEVEL:] 3100 (Original) // 50 (As Satou) // 50 (As Kuro) // 99 (As Nanashi)
[Endurance:] 31000 [Magic Power:] 31000 [Stamina:] 31000 [Strength:] +99
[Vitality:] +99 [Dexterity:] +99 [Intelligence:] +99

The map records the surroundings of the places you visit, allows you to view the terrain, display it in 3D, search for people and places you meet, and set. It is possible to check the map of places that have not been visited yet, search for various information including people who have not met, etc. The storage has unlimited storage capacity, you can store and take out items, switch equipment, and you can display your money by issuing country. In addition, it is possible to assign an arbitrary name to the inside of the storage and divide it into folders, and browse and search for strings in the internal books. There is no passage of time in the storage, and operations such as separation and fusion can be performed on the objects inside. In the skill column and magic column, you can activate/deactivate skills and magic, raise the skill level, and if you have added magic to the magic column (described later), you can activate it without chanting. In the exchange column, you can freely select from the content that you have already obtained about your own information (name, race, age, level, occupation, affiliation, class, title, skill, reward and punishment) displayed on appraisal skills and Yamato stones. Because it is possible, level 10 from the end of volume 1, level 30 from volume 4 onwards, and level 45 from volume 15 onwards is forged and published. The menu's downside is that it obscures your view with a large amount of information, and it intentionally restricts what you can see, usually by just color-coding criminals and high-level beings. Therefore, Tama, who senses dangerous objects intuitively, sometimes grasps the situation faster. Also, items in the "Treasure Box" or "Magic Bag" will not be searched.
