Description

Ran just wanted to be left alone. She just wanted a nap. She suddenly woke up on her way to an Isekai and told she was now a Hero who would fight the Demon Race alongside 11 others.

So what if she could design her skills and body?

So what if she was the last hope of humanity?

Nobody asked her if she wanted this, so why should she care about their world?

Character: I want more of Ran!!

I'm writing this review after bingeing through ch 34. However, only 150 pages in total. Chapters are on the short side. I will update this review as the story progresses.
A good character-driven story on this site is like discovering a legendary artifact. If anyone has found one, PM me!
As for this story, I really like the relationship you built with Ran and Rikki. Good stuff and good writing! We are introduced to other characters but these two are the main focus. I really hope the other characters will get developed further.
As for the story, it has its ups and downs. Firstly, the first few chapters are atrocious. Secondly, too little explanation. This is a fantasy setting so explanations are a must even if a bit repetitive because we're in another world and the readers might not know of the mechanics of how things work.
This is why I said this book is a deconstruction because the author already assumes a whole lot of information. This was what another reviewer here was complaining about.
There are too little descriptions!
One other criticism is that the story is painfully slow and yet fast. Let me explain. Too little descriptions and downtime means that there are non-stop barrages of things happening without a single break. However, the slow-moving plot means that not much is happening too.
There are many reasons why this fiction is currently rated below a 'four.' However, the story is solid, for now, and I recommend following it despite its short-comings.

Soooooo ... a bunch of people are summoned to save the land from the demons. Everybody is an arrogant prick, sneering at everyone else. The powerful of the world decide to trick the summoned heroes. The heroes' servants spy on them. Our MC decides to hide her abilities and knows from the start that everything is a trick and she should be on guard.
Why? Who knows. What abilities? Who knows. What's going on? Who knows. The story reads like the second book of a series that relies heavily on the first one. If that's indeed the case, please point me to said first book, coz I'm completely lost.
After about a dozen chapters it becomes clear - or at least guessable - that
Spoiler:
a) the heroes were indeed summoned from earth and b) Ran knows how to use her (not) new magic abilities despite the fact that yes, earth is our earth and doesn't have magic. Then chapter 13 happens, and still confused - but now about different things - I gave up.
She's a (rightfully) suspicious poisoner and very likely not original from earth but travelled there from yet another universe, presumably one with magic. So why she suddenly decided to spill her beans to the one person she considers most dangerous is a complete mental 180° and one confusion too much. I'm out. Story 1/5, couldn't follow.
The story may be wonderful afterwards, the side characters may develop an actual personality instead of being sneering caricatures, but I stopped reading after chp 13 so, unfortunately, I don't know. If you want to find out, more power to you. You'll find a technical well-written story with few-to-none typos or grammatical errors, which is always a big plus on RRL. If you do read on, please write a review and explain why you like the tale, so I can perhaps figure out what's going on second hand.

summary:
the main character ran gets summoned too another world to fight along side 11 other heroes against demons(maybe..). She is trying to escape from this duty. The other heroes don't seem too mind the summoning too much (one exception) and are eager too get all they deserve.
the characters are solid with all the characters that show up having clear goals and motivation. the interaction are fun too read.
the main character is too mysteriuos I have more questions about her than the world wtf!!! You don't need to know everything about a character too root for her but it is a problem if everything she does is just as much a suprise too me as it is too her enemies.
I am interested in learning more but I would like a baseline idea of what she is capable of. Right know this could be her second time at this summoning shit and I would not be suprissed. I get that you want her to be mysterious be set some expections. Same with the world all we are told is that it is a fantasy world we know nothing about the mechanics and how they work but the characters do!!! For example when everybody is summoned they can pick a new body and skills too go along with it this is said but not shown. From observation we can conclude that there where limits on what they could select but we don't know what!!!
The greatest problem of this story is that I seem to know less than the people summoned too a diffrent world. I would like the author to give a explanation in chapter or even in a interlude this way we would at least understand what is a threat and what isn't.
