What's next?
You become the protag by freak accident
On the previous life, you were a nobody living downtown near a patch of woods.
You had no family, and more importantly, no girlfriend or anyone who that lived with you.
You made a living by cutting down trees, until one fateful day...you made a mistake.
V-vrrooomm!!
"Gah—!!"
The chainsaw you were using got stuck on some wood and kicked back.
The last thing you remembered was a terrifying feeling of the chainsaw tearing through your helmet before everything went black, and...
"...hey."
Someone poked at your cheek.
The voicd sounded feminine.
"Uhgh..."
"Hey, wake up!"
You slowly opened your eyes.
You had a splitting headache, which did line up with your previous experience.
However, the continuity ended right there, because you were surrounded by people you had never seen before in your life.

The girl who was seemingly poking at your cheek looked almost like a human.
Keyword, almost.
Although she had the general anatomy of a human being, the girl had very outstanding eyes and...
"...horns?"
"Eh?"
The girl frowned and touched her horns.
"Yes, my horns are amazing. What of it?"
"No, I..."
Her nonchalant attitude about having red horns sticking out of her head made you even more confused.
But before you could even ask any questions, the girl scoffed and grabbed you by the waist.
"H-hey!"
You tried to resist, but the girl was surprisingly strong.
She easily lifted you onto her shoulder with only one arm and marched out of the alley.
"Hey, Topknot! I found Denji, all in one piece.
He was lying on top of piles of garbage bag."
A heavy sigh, followed by a burst of laughter made you turn you eyes.

"As least he didn't lose any body parts like the last time..."
A tall, lean young man dressed in a dark suit and tie muttered under his breath with a frown.
His black hair was tied into a short topknot, so you assumed the girl with the horn was talking to him.
The man looked like a human...although you had no idea why he was carrying a sword on his back in broad daylight.
Beside him was a tall woman in the same dark suit, though she wore hers with considerably less stiffness.
"Ahahaha! Denji, you really outdid yourself this time."
The woman with one eye burst out laughing as she saw you getting carried over.
Yes, one eye.
She had a black eyepatch over her right eye, and the eyepatch didn't look like anything a hospital would give out.
More importantly, the woman called you something—a name, that was definitely not yours.
"Denji...?"
"Yes, she is talking to you."
Power shook you slightly as if you were a broken machine.
The topknot guy sighed and put out the flame of his cigarette.
"Power, don't do that. Denji might be having a concussion right now."
Apparently, the horn girl was named "Power", which was the weirdest name you've ever heard.
"Hospital?"
The woman with an eyepatch suggested.
The topknot guy nodded.
Power dropped you down on the streets without no warning whatsoever.
"Oof!"
You grunted as you face-planted onto the asphalt. To your surprise, you didn't break anything-even your nose.
"Hey! I just said he might have a concussion."
"Bah! He's going to be fine! I possess a doctorate in psychiatry!"
"That's not even a thing, you—"
Topknot guy sighed and rubbed his face.
The eyepatch girl laughed again.
You flipped over and looked up at the sky.
You had no idea where you were, who these people are, or whether any of this was real.
But you could confidently say, that this was one of the oddest groups of people you have ever met.
