I am a dull otaku who lost consciousness after eating raw pork liver. When I awoke, it seemed that I had been reincarnated into another world... but I had also become a pig! As I was rolling around in a pigsty covered in mud, Jess, a kind, angelic, beautiful girl, came to my rescue. "Oink!!" "Um, you don't have to force yourself to talk. I'm able to... understand you." This girl who was devotedly caring after my pig-self was a member of the Yethma, and her people have the ability to read minds. "This is bad! That means she can see through all of my lustful delusions!" Now in Mesteria, a world run by swords and magic, a pig and a mind-reading beauty set off on their lovey-dovey fantasy adventure! ... Or do they?
