A world obsessed with card games gets its "protagonist" back! (Not really.) In worlds where card games dominate everything, it's almost a cliché for the fate of the world to hang on the outcome of a card battle. I, Mitsuru Tanefuda, found myself reincarnated into such a world. Thankfully, my dream came true—I became the manager of my very own card shop. In this world, people duel with cards, filled with joy and excitement, and I wanted to watch it all up close. But for some reason, everyone seems to think I'm some legendary hero who solved massive crises in the past, watching over the next generation like a noble predecessor. The truth is, I've never resolved any world-shaking incidents—not even once.
