The story of my recommendation revolves around a man named Mikami, who lives a very unhappy life and does not even have any girlfriend. He got stuck in a job having no opportunities. His life is very lackluster so to say. He got stabbed and died at the age of 37 while on the street. As he hates RPG games so when he wakes up in another world, no wonder he is not a wizard or knight but a very low level slime. But there are still some chances for him even though he is a slime to become a hero or even a Demon Lord.
