Akira Tennou, an unremarkable thirty-five-year-old man, gets hit by a truck on his way home from work and, after a brief experience in some mystical limbo, wakes up in a gloomy forest. This forest is beset by a sinister black mist—his memories of his little sister's lectures about fantasy novels tell him that it's probably under an evil curse. He soon encounters one of the forest's residents: an enormous silver wolf. At first the creature is hostile, but he finds that it's been corrupted by the same black mist, and he only needs to cry "Purify!" to banish the curse and heal the wolf. Akira discovers that the residents of the forest are all animals, and once purified, they are far from feral beasts.
 
His newfound magic allows him to speak to his new animal companions; he finds that they are intelligent and the rightful rulers of the forest. Akira decides to explore this new world, purifying the land and its inhabitants as he goes. But the source of the cursed mist can't be far away...

Akira Tennou—an unremarkable thirty-five-year-old janitor—has got a lot to complain about. He was hit by a truck, unintentionally dragged into a hero-summoning spell, and now he's stuck in some random gloomy forest in a parallel world. And he's probably afflicted by a dark curse now, if his sister's beloved fantasy manga are to be believed. The ominous shadows everywhere don't give him much hope for his new life, especially when they're also attached to the giant wolf that just snuck up behind him…
 
But while this world does come with a curse, it also comes with something awesome: magic. Akira's got the power to purify, and he's gonna use it to free the creatures of the forest! Trying to fi gure out how magic works without a teacher isn't going to be easy, but he's not gonna let some stupid curse get between him and a bunch of cute animals!
