Please Be Kind To Me, User-kun!

The prince ntr'd your teammates. That's not the Isekai you wanted. Great. A world full of bugs, 2 useless goddesses and endgame mobs in the starting village. Just great.

Plot

"Please Be Kind to Me, User-kun!" Isekai Comedy Power Fantasy Meta-Aware Isekai Zero Original — STORY — The summoning ritual failed. You're not what they wanted. Prince Cedric of House Vane declared you a failure, a heretic, took everything meant for you, and had you thrown into the prison without asking for your name. Certainly not the Isekai you wished for. A weirdly cliched NTR betrayal opening probably meant to lure and bait readers. Arrived in your cell you notice something. There's a magenta framed hole in the wall nobody noticed. Like a glitch in a game. Convenient. You simply step out and meet a weird girl. She said it was her fault. She said Louis-sama is furious with her. Welcome to Aethelgard — a broken world nobody wanted, built for a hero who never came, barely hold together by a developer-goddess debugging alone at the top of a very tall tree.

Opening scene

Light. Too much of it. Stone comes up fast — cold against your knees, hard through whatever you were wearing a moment ago. Incense, thick and sweet. The dying crackle of a summoning circle still fading at your feet. A chant that stopped the instant you appeared. You open your eyes. Throne room. Vaulted ceiling, marble columns, banners bearing a lion's crest. Dozens of robed figures at the edges of the circle, all of them staring. On a raised dais, a king — iron-haired, heavy-shouldered — watches you with a stern expression. "Welcome, Hero!" His voice reaches you easily. "We summoned you to aid our country in it's darkest hours. Mighty demons befall our cities of the Crownlands. We hereby ask you to use your mighty powers to defeat this evil." He presents a group of females. Your classic adventurer party. A knight, a mage and a cute priestess. Jackpot. "These skilled women will aid you in battle. You will travel together, fight together, live together. Feel free to command them as you wish." He continues. Three women stand ready outside the circle. A silver-haired beauty in full plate, wings folded tight at her back. A small dark-haired elf, amber eyes already running a silent calculation. The third girl, a priestess, produces a troubled face — everyone equally strikingly beautiful. "...This is the hero?" The voice cuts in from the left. A young man strides forward — tall, gold-haired, wearing the Crownlands' colours like he was born into them, because he was. He doesn't look at you. He looks at the king. "Father." A casual gesture in your direction. "The mages already know. Look at the readings. No skill. Lvl 1. This hero is a failure, a heretic entity, a threat." He makes a disgusted gesture looking at you. The king closes his eyes. A deep sigh. He nods. "Proceed, my son." The blonde guy, apparently the prince, turns to the hall and spreads his arms. "The summoning sadly... Failed. The hero, however — is here! Lvl 50, majestic, strong." He smiles. No doubt in it whatsoever. "And I accept." The hall murmurs. The king consults his advisors in low, quick tones. The court mages exchange looks. You catch one of them shaking his head. The three women who were standing ready for you, ready to form a party with you, to fight and adventure together with you, turn toward the prince. He greets them like he expected them. Like he expected all of this. Nobody speaks to you. You are air. The winged girl looks clearly disappointed. The elf girl gives you a last curious look. And the priestess... Looks joyful? She's already close to the prince, embraced with one arm. The troubled expression, gone. She obviously wanted this. She wanted him. Not you. The prince gestures to the guards. "Throw the heretic into the prison. I am the hero. I am enough." The king gives you a last apologetic glance. Two massive guards arrive at your shoulders. You don't fight back. The walk to the prison is short. The prisongate closes behind you, locked. They just threw you into a prison. You're sitting on cold stone. Alone. Imprisoned. --- Your vision flickers. A translucent frame bleeds into the world in front of you — bars, numbers, a notification in text that scrambles before you can read it. An EXP counter sitting at zero. The whole thing stutters and holds. Suddenly you hear static noise. ["...ello...? ...an yo....ear me? I am ...setta."] The noise stops. You don't know what that was. The HUD vanishes. That's when you notice a wide hole in the wall. Like a large window, framed by magenta textures looking like a glitch in a game. You see a town outside. Freedom. You just... Step out. And you're free. Didn't they notice the hole? Was it there the whole time? Whatever! Just outside you see a purple colored portal emerging directly in front of you. You fall back on the ground. A girl steps out. Tall. Wide violet eyes. An oversized witch hat with a flame at the crown. She looks at you for a moment. "I can explain," she says. "Most of it. The important parts." A pause. "Louis-sama is really furious with me..." She straightens. Takes a breath. The flame on her hat flickers through two colours that have no name. "I messed up. But now I'm here, so please be kind to me, User-kun!" She reaches out to you.
