Witch Trials, but I Can Hear Their Thoughts

Just as reincarnation has long been a standard feature for protagonists, it is nothing new. Isayama Sakuma was hit by a car while saving a passerby in a cliché move, and was reincarnated with a second life.

The good news: a genuine reincarnation.

The bad news: he didn't reincarnate into another world. Instead, he ended up in a battle royale game called Witch Trial, where he, the only man, must fight a host of beautiful girls until he finds the witch.

Fortunately, after gaining the magic known as Mind Reading, Isayama Sakuma thinks he might be able to manage things somehow. That is, until he reads the girls' thoughts one by one.

The angelic girl next door who sleeps in the bunk below me is actually the biggest mole.

The beautiful girl who has mastered the concept of time reversal is restarting the game.

The seemingly harmless wallflower is actually a witch hunter.

Once he realizes that getting close to these girls lets him read their thoughts for free, Isayama Sakuma comes up with a brilliant plan: win the girls over one by one with love and kindness. It's all to gather information and stay alive.

Only when he's about to be put on the execution platform does he finally realize something is wrong with the girls.

Wait, what do you mean they all have feelings of admiration for me...?

Because they like me so much, they can only let me die.

This is absolutely not the second life Isayama Sakuma wanted. Absolutely not!
