Plot

Youta Tada is ordinary high school student who holds deep feelings for his childhood friend. One day however during the class he is attacked and seemingly killed by mysterious scarecrow-like being. Youta then wakes up in a different world with a weird purple sky and two moons. Here he meets paladin girl Roomi and a three-legged bird named Genius and quickly learns that he got into the women-only world where he is the first man that appeared in centuries. Thanks to that, girls in this world have absolutely no resistance towards him and his single touch makes Roomi incredibly aroused. Genius then orders him to mate with her and all other girls in this alternate world.
