Synopsis :
“Why does everyone pay attention to me when all I want is to be a ‘mob’!?”
In the Galactic Empire, a vast nation encompassing 70% of habitable planets in the cosmos, John Wuzos worked as a mercenary. He considered himself an “otaku” and a “mob” and tried to live each day in tranquility, adhering to the motto of “knowing his place and staying out of the spotlight.” Consequently, he always tried to avoid any events that could lead to trouble!
However, inexplicably, the protagonist characters around him kept self-destructing one after another…!
No matter the request, Wuzos strived to remain a mob, but…
“I’ll put it simply. Would you consider switching sides and joining me?”
“Could you come to my team as a staff member?”
Thanks to his dedication to being a mob, he had honed swift and accurate judgment and an unwavering mental fortitude. Some people even referred to him with awe as “dust on the ground.” Now, those who sought to exploit his covert abilities began to emerge…?
Unbeknownst to him, a thrilling space fantasy unfolds, led by an unwittingly capable mob mercenary. And so, the curtains rise!

Stop asking for Ko-fi donations. it makes you seem desperate and will only make people leaving your site. If we want to donate we will. pestering those who read or use your site is counter productive and it makes people leave.
The ko-fi donations made it possible for me to translate and put out weekly chapters/parts of ongoing 20+ novels consistently. Sorry if it’s bothering you
I’m leaving the site.
the Ko-fi Advertisement you have keeps popping up and it’s annoying.
Good Bye!!!
Good bye to you too, thanks for visiting the site
Hello!
Now that J-novel club released volume 3, will you drop this series, or will you continue at this pace?
They are releasing volumes one after the other pretty quickly…
All LN translations of this series have already been removed from this website. However, the Webnovel translations will continue until I am asked to stop (hopefully never).
You did release volume 3 for the light novel just before J-novel did, in fact it’s still on your Ko-fi.
I was asking if you were goind to do that for volume 4 as well.
Don’t worry about the webnovel.
Ko-fi is not this website, no?
Volume 4 has not come out yet so I can’t say anything
Edit: it’s all deleted from ko-fi, thanks for the reminder
I really want to like this story but the super ships just ruin everything with their existing man. I get he’s a mob but they make every character feel insignificant and irrelevant when they can do everything practically themselves.
