Baek Chan was already struggling to make ends meet when a falling signboard killed him.
He wakes up in another world as a Hunter, and discovers that the secondhand Call of Cthulhu rulebook he bought before dying has become an ancient eldritch grimoire.
It gives him a unique class: Grimoire Mage.
It also gives him a SAN stat.
The stronger the magic, the more sanity Chan has to sacrifice. After his very first Gate expedition ends in a massacre, he learns the hard way that eldritch magic comes with some rather unpleasant side effects.
Desperate for money, Chan takes a sponsorship from NY Group and becomes the villain in a live-streamed magical-girl battle series starring Sunset, a young heroine who has never lost a match.
Then Chan accidentally defeats her with a single spell.
What starts as a ridiculous job gradually becomes something more complicated when Sunset turns to the strange villain who defeated her for support.
Chan only wanted enough money to live quietly.
Unfortunately, his grimoire has other ideas.
