In this world, there exists mystical creatures known as "Yarimon".
Known as the loner protagonist with the weakest Yarimon... until now, that is.
In a surprising turn of events, the protagonist's Yarimon partner learned a godly-powerful move with a power level of 800,000 called the "Cheat Tackle".
With this, the protagonist's world completely changed, as this move will one-shot any opponent in battle (though it is only usable once per battle).
Of course, it would be foolish to believe that one can become the champion with just a single move. Therefore, a trainer must continue to hone their skills and diversify their strategies.
With that said, defeating my childhood friend for the first time is already a crazy accomplishment.

Afterwards, I set out on an adventure after my childhood friend told me she was going on a journey and pressured me to do the same.

As I am adventuring, I slowly unravel the secret of this world.
This is when I felt like my journey had really begun.
