Noticing the god in front of him, Haruka was going to get cheat abilities by picking what he wanted from the skill list so that he could live in the other world――or so he thought, but the skills were first come, first serve.
All the cheat skills were taken by my classmates?!
After not being able to get any amazing skills, Haruka's "loner" skill made him unable to join any parties. Even in another world, he’ll adventure in solitude.
Haruka, recognizing the crisis of his classmates, decided to secretly help them out while not relying on cheats. He’ll surpass cheats as he walks the path of the strongest――.
