I Don't Want to Be Everyone's Darling, So I Have to Start Adventuring

Eli Shale transmigrated to another world filled with adventurers, mages, demi-humans, and all kinds of monsters.

He thought he could live out a peaceful life, but then he unexpectedly gained a special ability:

Nearly every intelligent creature who saw Eli would subconsciously mistake him for the person they most wanted to see.

Eli called it his "damned charm."

In the eyes of the pampered princess, Eli was a dashing hero;

In the eyes of the seductive, cunning foxfolk, Eli was the patron she'd been seeking for a century;

In the eyes of the aloof, proud elf, Eli became a tree spirit guarding an ancient tree;

No matter where Eli went, he always attracted unexpected trouble, making it impossible for him to show his face in public.

This left Eli deeply troubled, but an accident brought him into contact with the one person unaffected by him: a witch from a fallen kingdom.

To uncover the truth behind his ability and break the curse of being "irresistible to everyone," Eli has no choice but to embark on an adventure with her.

Many years later, someone interviews Eli:

"Lord Demon King, how did you manage to cling to the witch and trick her into becoming your wife, one step at a time?"

"Huh? What kind of apocryphal history is that? No way, I still need to change it!"
