Synopsis
The conqueror, the son of a dubious cult guru, died during the cult's unreasonable training and reincarnated in another world. And it was an ideal world for conquerors without the concept of gods or religions, and they lived happily with the help of the inhabitants of remote villages.

However, the village was a collection of people branded as "abnormal" by the empire. An abnormal person is a person who is "fearing death".

The people of the empire lacked the sense of "fearing death." Eventually, the "abnormal people" are about to be executed by a "lifetime system." The conqueror desperately tries to help the villagers, but he has no power.

At that time, "Mitama", the god of the cult where the conqueror was, was summoned to this different world... Can the conqueror survive in a different world!?
