Satou Kazuma, a high school student, has a funny and embarrassing accident that ends his life while returning from buying a video game. After his death, he meets a goddess named Aqua who gives him two choices: go to heaven or be reborn in a fantasy world.

Kazuma decides to start a new life in the fantasy world, with the goal of defeating the troublesome Demon King causing chaos. Before he embarks on his quest, he gets to choose a powerful item and picks Aqua just to tease her, not expecting much help from her.
