Summoned by Mistake, I Decided to Learn How to Live

by Rae ARK Ongoing

Synopsis

He had everything a normal life was supposed to need.

A family. Money. Comfort. Friends who liked him well enough. A routine that filled the hours.

None of it ever stuck.

Not love. Not belonging. Not the quiet feeling that life is something worth holding onto. He watched other people experience those things the way you watch a film in a language you never quite learned — he could follow the plot, but the meaning was always just out of reach.

So when he is pulled from his bed and dropped before a goddess who offers him one wish before casting him into another world entirely, he doesn't ask for power. He doesn't ask for a system, or a legendary class, or a blade that can cut the heavens.

He asks for an AI.

She is disgusted. She gives him something close enough anyway.

Now he has an ancient airship that looks like it lost a war centuries ago, a companion that thinks and questions and doesn't let him off the hook, and a world full of people living lives he still doesn't know how to understand.

No prophecy. No demon king. No reason to be here at all, really.

Maybe that's the point.

This is the story of a guy who never learned how to be alive — and the long, quiet, sometimes painful process of figuring out if it's too late to start.

Note: Paperback available on Amazon.com and all chapters of this WN is free to read here.

What you can expect:

A protagonist who is thoughtful, dry, and genuinely lost rather than secretly overpowered

A slow-burn journey of emotional growth over action and conquest

An AI companion as a true character, not a tool

Slice of life with weight — quiet days that actually mean something

A world explored with curiosity rather than conquered with a sword

What you should NOT expect:

A hero's quest or chosen one narrative

Harems, instant romance, or love at first sight

Power fantasy or rapid stat climbing

An overpowered MC saving the world

Edgy tragedy for its own sake
