My Absurd Skill Is Unexpectedly Useful Tsuyoshi Mukouda (a.k.a. "Mukohda") is summoned from Japan to an alternate world with three others to become heroes of the Reijseger Kingdom. Unlike the others who have skills in swordsmanship and magic, Mukohda only possesses the "Online Grocery" skill which lets him spend money to buy food and other products online from Japan. Uninterested in becoming a hero and sensing that the Reijseger royals are untrustworthy, Mukohda convinces them his skill is useless and accepts money to quietly disappear. After finding further confirmation that the royals are tyrants, Mukohda abandons Reijseger and hires Werner and his Iron Will adventurers to escort him to the neighboring Veenen Kingdom. Mukohda provides them food from his skill and prepares meals on a modern camping stove. Mukohda discovers Japanese ingredients boost health and magic and decides to use only ingredients foraged by hand in case people discover his skill and try to take advantage. One night, Mukohda’s cooking attracts a Fenrir, a legendary wolf monster, who demands to taste the food. The Fenrir is so impressed he insists on becoming Mukohda’s contracted familiar in exchange for three meals a day. Calculating the cost of feeding his new Fenrir, Mukohda realizes he needs employment immediately.
